Boddika and Joy Orbison - Swims


Here's the track that peep are geeking over. Two producers keeping it really real on top their respected games and come together trying to find eachothers place inside the track. This minimal approach probably finds itself most interesting in a club setting, but also is a great reference point for anyone trying to get through to the UK listeners. Cheeck it if you like

zeiGn - Euphoria


zeiGn's new single comes at a really kind fee for the heaviness of the track. Check it out and show some love. on top all that peep some other stuff up there for your enjoyment.

Brickwall Brigade - Celsius EP


This duo is made up of svetlana local Piece of Shh, and dubtechno bro Jan. The various dubs of this track herald some demonic and dark spaces as if you took anything from some kingston artist and space ape, and some euro alley ways and mix them all in a sonic meat grinder and stuff it into some hog casing and try to get an inkling of what each represent. Though this may sound bad on paper, the results are polar opposite, that means really good. It's far from each of these producers norms but its explorations are well charted. see for yourself.

Hush Hush Pony - Baboo EP


Poland trio hush hush pony get a real funky vibe here with 'baboo', a sound that may be more than familiar at this point but hardly a work of trios which make this a bit more interesting. The vocal cuts are the focal point of the track along with a tight bottom end. The remix treatments are worth the love as well. check itt.

Jonti - Sine & Moon


Here's somethign you wont see on this site almost evver, but a stones throw release showing some of their newer styles on the release tip. Joni gets a chance to share his tunes after a nice podcast for ST now getting a free release on this illustrious label. Enough said, just go to the page ..here.. and see what you think.

Leonard Dstroy - ADHD


Heres a free drop from LDSTRY himself whos first showed his face on this site a while back and now has found a place on Alex B's Elm and Oak label with some free, but worth much more beats. With samples galore and dope drum sets keeping the neck cocked, you'll love these dl's. listen, cop, smoke to em, whatever you want but see what the west coast is still flippin out hard.

Babe Rainbow - Greed Remix EP



Babe Rainbow takes on many faces, mostly covered in plastic wrap and shaving cream (if youve seen any pictures of him) but musically its from really in tuned idm downtempo and dark beats to just some of the heaviest dirty chopped up remixes of dirty south rappers etc etc. But for this track the company MNWKA decides to give out some remixes of a colab track he had done. The remixes form some cool artists are all shades of kooky and well worth the listens, and the instrumentl track scratches your skull up. If nothing else, click on it and see a bigger picture of some dudes gawking at a nice pair of drive by titties. well worth it in itself.

gronxkey - eight months of grey



gronxkey has seen the light of lulz before and now with a fulll release free for all ya'll suckas to love and enjoy so hit it up for sure! These new tracks are full of synthed out experimentation, modulated madness and percussion sent into reverberated territories. This is music to sick back after a hefty sfty meet and get out there with it. highly recommended abstraction. click the pic dammit!

Dr. Buddha - Step Out!



If you havent peeped this un in the message box, your dumb... I was going to renege that but I won't because you should all definitely check out these chirped up super filtered and swept beats thats warbble across the aural frequencies. Each short beats is laden with complex sampling and pretty dope kits. Check it yooooous guyz n grlz

Best of 2011 post like you know it


ahhh 2011, what happened this year? well lots and lots I guess, and in the field of music, a lot happened for me as well. As many of you have noticed, my taste has shifted to more dance relevant music, yet I don't play, visit, or enjoy many clubs. It may seem contradictory, you may be wondering why the economy is the way it is, you may wonder what my favorite album of the year was, or you may wonder why the fuck there are ducks as the image for this post. Well the ducks are easy, my favorite kind of meat in 2011. The economy is tough because I've never had much money so I don't know what's going on. My favorite album... well chill I'm getting to it. This post does not reflect the actual best of's for 2011 by any means of sales and what a lot of people think, this is all my opinion based only on what I listened to the most of this year.

The Range - The Big Dip


It puzzles me how i loved drum'n'bass so much but never really took to this juke/footwork style sound... not that I'm comparing them, but more just comparing the high tempo... anyway that doesn't matter, what does matter is astro nautico family has been releasing some seriously good forward thinking electronic music of all veins lately. And now fellow north easterner, The Range, get his drop on Astro with a high flying release that leaves you levitating while the world bustles around your feet. It's a really clever and pensive release and way way well worth the listen for the hefty cost of free.99. So you know wat to do.

Konsul Gnadenwalze – Gnad en Walzae


Konsul got some music sent over my way and it was definitely one that I appreciated greatly. This pensive release dives deep into the unknown of soundscapes and nervous systems.... here's their description..""Gnad en Walzae" is the soundtrack to Konsul Gnadenwalze's very own universe – 6 tracks creating some dub-wise broken beat abstractions, beautiful and brutal, organic and mechanized at the same time. Each successive listen reveals new depths, pulling you further into the world of Konsul Gnadenwalze. A wired carousel ride with the ancient question of whether we revolve around our environment, or our environment revolves around us. Don't forget to check out the nicely designed extra booklet!"
The release is here

Dibia$e - Comfort Zone


dibia$e is no stranger to crunched out dope ass beats and when they hit fresh select its always a pleasure. These are dedicated to the funk soul lover, J-1 who recently passed at a seriously tender age at the top of his game. So his energy is spread through all his peers and fans and here is Dibia$e showing you the love and energy from a great artist before.

Brooklyn Radio show


The good people over at Brooklyn Radio broadcasting was kind enough to hint me up with their always awesome mixes. These are well worth bookmarking and one they particularly liked as did I was they boi, DJ Still Life and his emotional dance grooves spun well tight to a T. its posted below but go check out the radio show and bookmark fo sho fo sho... here

Sent over from good ole Barce.... cue the villa header after messi just beat 5 guys to the box and makes a rediculous cross to the far post.... ahhh anyway they also have some dope music, and here's a great single example of that. This chill beat with a deep bottom has enough organic sounds in here to keep a hippie happy for weeks. Check this out for sure!!
