Flying Lotus just upped his refixes of Lil Wayne. Includes vocal versions and instrumentals ("for the heads") of 'Robo Tussin,' his 'A Milli' rework and the new one 'I Feel Like Dying.'
Following on from one of the Sonic Router endorsed albums of 2009, DOOM's 'Born Like This,' LEX Records are releasing the 'Gazillion Ear EP' digitally on Monday - vinyl versions will materialise in early January - featuring remixes from Thom Yorke (of Radiohead), Jneiro Jarel & Dave Sitek (of TV On The Radio), Dr Who Dat? and an exclusive DOOM beat.
Standardly its amazing, as you can see from the megamix below...
A brand new project from Bleep, photographer Shaun Bloodworth and designer Stuart Hammersly, 'N/S/E/W,' is a musical and visual journey around differing regions of the world. Anyone who's followed Bloodworth's work will have seen his striking figures adorn the covers and booklets of the Rinse CD series along with Mary Anne Hobb's compilations on Planet Mu, and keen followers should know that recently he visited the US to document the - and I use this for the lack of a better adjective - 'beats' scene out there; and 'N/S/E/W' combines his stark potraits of these international artists with - in 9 out of 12 cases - exclusive tracks from opposite spectrums of the globe.
Skream, Headhunter and Geeneus rep for Southern England, Rustie, Hudson Mohawke and Taz Buckfaster hold it down for the North (i.e. Scotland), Flying Lotus, Matthew David and Daedelus shed light on the West Coast of the US whilst Mike Slott, Kotchy and FaltyDL give us a little insight into the East Coast.
Gumpf:
"Available as two editions, both made in limited quantities. Astandard edition with 14 high quality photographic prints and a 12 track CD compilation anddeluxe edition, hand numbered with a limited poster. Both editions are beautifully packaged in a custom made box."
Unified by a passion for bass music, the artists are now forever conjoined by Bloodworth's photography, presented in unanimous fashion by Hammersly and Bleep, its a project that's going some way to prove that the world isn't that huge a place after all...
Any of the LDN faithful who regularly attend Benji B's basement sessions need to know that tomorrow is NOT the night. For the first time ever they've pushed Deviation back to see out the year with a bang.
I repeat. Deviation is not tomorrow night. Its on the 16/12. 5 hour set from Daddy Slim himself.
Punch Drunk boss, Peverelist, released 'Jarvik Mindstate' - his debut 'album' yesterday. It is a truly hynotic collection of songs packed full of must have beatscapes.
Scottish beat constructor Rustie uploaded his much sought after refix of Keisha Cole to his myspace for a FREE download earlier today. The producer may be in the lab working on his debut release for Warp but today he's also been announced for a live set on a super stacked line up in Room One at fabric in early January at a Numbers event that's running alongside the launch of the 'Elevator Music' compilation.
On the evidence of his latest plate for Paul Rose’s Hotflush imprint, and recent collaborative effort with Spherix, Sigha is fast becoming London’s answer to dub-techno pioneers Basic Channel. Like Moritz Von Oswald and Mark Ernestus, he seems to revel in creating wide-open spaces within his tracks that allow each individual element to breathe independently of the whole. The result is to draw emphasis to every minute change in rhythm or melody, creating a sense of hypnotic ease that ensures each track feels far longer than its actual runtime, yet never overstays its welcome.
The title track of his ‘Rawww EP’ is a case in point: with its graceful pivots and static-drenched motion, it could have been a component of Maurizio’s M-Series, a single monochrome melody line remaining constant as the rest of the track disassembles and recreates itself over ten long minutes. It couldn’t be more ‘Berlin’ if it tried – but that fact has no bearing whatsoever on its ethereal beauty, capturing in its all-encompassing synth wash and metronomic pulse a slow and considered journey down the autobahn.
On the flipside, ‘Hold Your Heart Up To The Light’ betrays Sigha’s London roots more explicitly, driven by the slightest memory of a garage beat and echoes of syncopation buried deep in the mix. It’s essentially a mood piece – something he does well; none of the tracks on ‘Rawww’ are overtly aimed for the dancefloor, instead choosing to stand alone as microcosms of London bass music’s potential for unlocking odd feelings of nostalgia and melancholy. ‘Untitled 2’ moves further back towards techno territory, awash in delay and coated in a fine film of vinyl crackle that clings whispily to the beat before being swept away in sudden gale force currents.
Sigha’s work on ‘Rawww’ is certainly not the sort of material aimed squarely at bass connoisseurs – in fact, there is nary a rumble of percussive sub-bass throughout. Instead, its presence is used to mark out a region for the track to operate within. The results, whilst minimal and firmly head-oriented, are well worthy of investigation and careful absorption.
Sumising a decade in beatmaking through the majesty of a mix seems like an impossible task but its one that 2tall, DJ Clockwork and Kper have taken in hand deftly. Aiming to: "highlight the lineage of hip-hop production and beat making from the turn of the millennium to the present day, and perhaps shed some light on the fairly quiet revolution that has been taking place under the surface of mainstream media in recent years," they've split a decade up into year long sections and mixed together the bumper crop of beats from those time periods.
The resulting ubermix is now live and available for download at 320kbps.
Celebrating 5 years of Bristol's pioneering dubstep rave, Subloaded, Tectonic boss Pinch brings a fire line up to Corsica next Friday, [insert shit pun about Christmas coming early here].
It finally happened... He was one of the first people we had in our sights when we started this blog nearly a year ago but today, after repeated bouts of gchat stalking, countless compliments and hours of repeated listening, Slugabed dropped his exclusive mix for us...
Its hosted by the good people over at The Quietus and accompanies an interview I conducted with him earlier this week for our monthly column. I'll post the full transcript here soon but for the mean time bang on the link below to read the piece and kop the mix.
Rooted Records is undoubtedly Bristol's best record shop. One of the only vinyl specialists in the city its a must visit destination every time you go there, even if it is just to pop in with the sole purpose of bantering the staff.
That should really be common knowledge by now; the real news is they've upped the first in what promises to be a regular series of podcasts recently and we've been given the pleasure of giving you the scoop, and the link to download a mix of upfront dubplates.
Keysound have stepped up a gear this year dropping more 12”s than ever before and doing it in fine style to boot, with several unique takes on the bass sounds of the underground. Starkey and Durrty Goodz dropped a killer 12” of hyperactive street bass anthems, Zomby did his aquatic gloop & bass rendition of label bosses Dusk & Blackdown, Scratcha DVA showed off the dark side of grime and Grievous Angel re-fixed a jungle anthem into a rolling garage number all to great effect. But with Kowton they come with something all together different, something that manages to sit so well with the Keysound output whilst expanding its sonic pallet.
‘Stasis (g mix)’ gets things rolling and here Kowton takes garage and deep dubbed out minimal techno and fuses it to a Youngtsa-esque half stepping dubstep sound. Lowering the tempo and upping the groove he creates a really unique zoned out number, which just rolls out like a long lost garage joint that Basic Channel and Youngsta forgot to make back in 2001. The deepness is hypnotising.
Things get minimal with ‘Countryman,’ a four to the floor pump and a relentless bass pulse replaces the garage vibes with something altogether darker and more sinister. The track builds and rolls with dub samples and a subtle groove, feeling simple it ends up greater than the sum of its parts, the minimal half step house rhythms really feel like a fresh slant on the dubstep techno sound.
Following up the sublime plate from Hxdb, the Manchester based label, Mindset, return to the retail world with a split release from 16Bit and the slightly more techno minded duo of Andro & Dimit. Sticking to their curveball ways the label has managed to dig up a couple of gems for their 7th release.
Whilst the London based production duo, 16Bit, might sometimes be known for their super aggro, fist pumping, middle heavy basslines on tracks like ‘Chainsaw Calligraphy’ they’ve consistently proved, most recently with a big portion of their ‘Milky Pie’ mixtape, that they can, quite brilliantly, do deep. ‘Serum’ is an eerie opening of glitches and whirring, layered with found sound percussion (incorporating both metal chain shakers and overly reverbered woodblocks) over a tumulus bass line, that hands down, has more impact over its first few bars than 80% of other bass lines have in their entirety. Melodically it is a little thin, but 16Bit use the a similar approach to that that Instra:mental did on ‘Watching You,’ employing the occasional stripe of aural fluorescence to colour the bass perfectly.
AnD’s ‘Nebulos’ is a slightly more upfront riddim, with its rapid succession of plump kick drums providing the mandatory low end pressure. Much like ‘Serum’ the track is coloured by rough percussion which tends to exude the same kind of ‘deep-like-pit’ aura; but whats particularly impressive is the duo’s use of hi hats to drive the drum pattern, panning and twisting the sounds around the mix so that they bounce off each other purposefully.
Anyone else suffering from Paul White withdrawl since the release of his 'Strange Dreams Of...' album? Well, those knowledgable few at One Handed Music just signed off your prescription, (note to self: that was a truly horrific pun - can you even call that a pun? - must reserve chat like that for inter department meetings), a free download of the A side of his new beat tape type mini album 'Sounds From The Skylight.'
Go to link below and kop the A-side for free, with the option to hand over £6 for a vinyl version. Well worth it, all the limited releases from One Handed have gone almost instantly; being forever condemned to a life of over inflated discogs bartering.
Taking an idea and running with it - much like his namesake’s hatred for Boggis, Bunce and Bean - Fantastic Mr Fox has this year found his music released on labels as diverse as Hemlock, 2nd Drop and Black Acre. Purveying a deeply off kilter love of snatched melodies and four to the floor kick drums his next EP ‘Sketches’ is definitely set to turn heads firmly in his direction, so aiming to stay ahead of the curve as ever, we asked him to take our text test and provide a mix for the ongoing series.
Sonic Router: Can you provide those who may not know you with a bit of background info?
FMF: I’m 21, originally from Wolverhampton, now based in Manchester - I’ve been producing since 2002. Done lots of remix stuff and over the last year or so have started releasing my own music.
Outside of music who are you? What do you do on the daily?
I’m a student in my final year at Manchester University, trying to make myself do uni work instead of spending hours on end clicking and staring at a cubase grid.
How did you first get into making music? What was it that infected you to do produce?
My older brother had always been in bands from when he was young so he’d picked up lots of production knowledge through that and started to teach me the basics on fruity loops when I was 14. I got addicted to it pretty quickly, for the first few years I made music I didn’t really have a clue how to make any particular genre, I just used to churn out loads of weird 1-2 minute loops and then stick out of time acapellas over the top.
What’s your production set up like?
Pretty basic- just cubase sx3 on a pc, when I’ve got the money I think I might invest in a synth.
How would you describe your sound to someone zoning in for the first time?
Urmm, melodic, beat driven, textured maybe..?
Whats with the FMF moniker? Big fan of Roald Dahl...?
The FMF moniker is a pretty rubbish story, I needed a name for my myspace page and didn’t want to use my real name (Stephen Gomberg) because it’d sound like I was a German hard-house producer. I searched my house for ideas and found a stack of tapes I used to listen to when I was younger and one of them was the Fantastic Mr Fox story tape, so I decided to use that.
Tell us about your production partner in crime Rich Reason how did you hook up and how do you all work in the studio?
Rich runs a night in Manchester called Hit n Run that I go to quite a lot and I’d been producing a couple of songs for Riz MC, who he’d started the club night with, so we started talking because of that link. I gave him some of my music and he asked to have a go at making some beats together. For our collaborations, I’d make the beat and the main melody, background noises etc, then Rich would come round and help add ideas and structure to the tunes.
You’ve already dropped one Black Acre 12” but I see your debut solo EP ‘Sketches’, what can we expect from that?
I think of all the releases so far, it’s the one I’m most happy with, especially a track on there called 'If I.' It’s coming out as a double 10” release with some absolutely amazing artwork by the Beat Street Collective, who I met out in Berlin when me & Rich played at their night ‘Sirius.’ The EP features three tracks of mine and a remix of ‘Sketches’ by Sbtrkt. It will be out early 2010.
I think you first came to our attention with the Hemlock remix 10” of Untold’s ‘Yukon’ and the 12” after that how did those tracks come about and do you have more plans in the works for the label?
I’d heard Untold’s music on his myspace a year or so ago, so I messaged him to ask if I could remix something and he sent me some parts for ‘Yukon.’ I sent back my remix the next day and luckily he really liked it, so it got released on Hemlock a few months later. With the Rich Reason joint release, those two tunes were the first couple of attempts I’d made at making beats around 140bpm instead of my usual hip-hop comfort zone of 85-100 bpm. We were really unsure about what people would think of Plimsoul and Bleep Show, so I sent them onto Jack (Untold) mainly for constructive criticism but in the hope he might want to put them out. Him and Andy (who he co-runs Hemlock with) liked both tracks so it progressed from there. I think there might be a remix release of one of those songs at some point, not sure yet, but I can’t heap enough praise on that label- Untold & James Blake are two of the best producers around at the moment.
How would you describe your sound, I saw Black Acre describe you as ‘the universe's greatest purveyor of clockwork garage’ does that fit you nicely ? If so what comes next?
I’ve got no idea really, I suppose that my beats sound quite clockworky. Not sure what my future productions will sound like- I hated 4x4 drum patterns not that long ago, and now half the tunes I make have a 4x4 beat, so who knows what’s next
You do share an affinity to more hip hop productions... is that more of the background you come from?
Yeah definitely, I think the main thing for me is the drum sounds used by people like Madlib, J Dilla, and then the detail in production of artists like RJD2 (early stuff not his last couple of albums), El-P, Prefuse 73, Four tet etc.
Tell us about the mix you’ve turned in, what tracks are you really feeling at the moment?
I put it together on Ableton, which I’ve learnt the basics of recently. There’s a few of my songs then others from producers I’ve discovered over the last few months, look out for a ridiculous Destiny’s Child remix from James Blake. There’s so much good music around at the moment that its hard to make lists, but I’m really enjoying all the Mount Kimbie, Airhead – new age Burial type stuff, oh also ‘Joplin’ by Loops Haunt.
See you included Can Ox... Did you adore the golden age of Def Jux as much as I? What do you think made them so successful at that time?
Yeah, I love all that stuff, ‘The Cold Vein’ is one of my favourite albums. I guess the success came firstly from the fact they were releasing amazing music, but I also think labels like Def Jux and Stones Throw have benefited massively from the rise of the internet and in particular myspace- as it meant they didn’t need to worry so much about getting on MTV or radio.
What do you reckon to the Vast Aire/El-P beef?
Didn’t know there was one, I’ll google it and get back to you...
What have you got in store for us in the near future with releases and what not?
I’ve just finished a remix for Desto, got quite a few new songs in progress but they all need a lot more development. There’s a tune me and Rich Reason made a while ago called ‘Larry David’ that will be coming out on Black Acre along with Sukh Knight remix of ‘Fall.’
Have you got any words of wisdom for our readers?
Buy Blue Daisy’s new EP, I think it’ll be out by the time this interview goes up.
If the main trait Joker, Gemmy and Guido still share is a fiendish devotion to the use of synth textures to stain dubstep’s monochrome template a deep, groovy purple, then the last year has gone some way towards emphasising their substantial differences in approach. Whilst Joker’s ever expanding catalogue betrays a strong affinity with the smooth funk of West Coast hip-hop and Guido’s forthcoming ‘Beautiful Complication’ 12” sees him move ever further towards mutant, future-shocked R’n’B, the most recent music from Gemmy is hugely indebted to the scorched melodies that used to blare out of your brother’s SNES.
Gemmy’s second release for Planet Mu this year includes three of the tracks that featured on his mix for Mary Anne Hobbs’ Bristol: Rise Up special at the tail end of last year. At that point his only release had been the precociously brilliant 'Bk 2 The Future' 12" on Punch Drunk, but during his ten-minute mix its comparatively spacious atmosphere was entirely lost to shockingly barbed circuit meltdowns. The new EP’s title track ‘Johnny 5’ remains a case in point, its innocuously calm intro section suddenly exploding to life in a flurry of jittery high-hats and a grin-inducingly addictive melody.
By way of contrast ‘Wata Down Sound’ marries one of the cheekiest sample steals I’ve heard in a while to a hulking slab of Bristolian dubstep, driven by characteristic descending melodies and a cocky swagger. Final track ‘Shanti Riddim’ rounded off the Hobbs mix in silky-smooth style and in its full form is the EP’s highlight, playing toytown psychedelia off against a liquid groove that’s strangely reminiscent of Vincent Vega’s stoned ride down Pulp Fiction’s sleaze-ridden strip.
But it’s second track ‘Dolla Digital’ that may give some indication of the future potential in Gemmy’s music, its robotic refrain of "we don’t give a fuck about you" subverting dystopian menace with a sublime sense of the ridiculous. Crucially, it operates as an incredibly well-realised whole, its cruelly abrasive bass textures offset by the quirky pop sensibility that rears its head again and again over the course of the EP’s length.
Spam Chop runs the blossoming Wigflex label, its spin off clothing line and the club night of the same name up in Nottingham. The man had me locked into a wierd kind of trance when I watched him spin at the Blunted Robots vs. Berkane Sol night at fabric a month or so back, so it really tickles me to find stumble across mix he's done for the 'Fresh Out Of Death' series and present it to you people.

Anyone who went to the Nosaj Thing party at Plastic People a few weeks back will be able to tell you that this kid positively tears up the dance with his live show. Musically layered with a heavy boom bap support structure his music often enamors listeners instantly. Played loud though, its truly something else to behold.
Joy Orbison put together a mix for the Greenmoney show on Ministry of Sound Radio recently. Listen here:

Having banged on about the "this album will own you" factor for a hot minute now, its my pleasure to be able to provide you with this aural preview of Peverelist's new CD, 'Jarvick Mindstate.'
Tom Ford's command of space is definitely one of the most arresting things about this collection of songs.
Find it in stores on the 30th November, available on CD and triple vinyl.
Its official, after those few leaked hints, Martyn is handling the landmark 50th CD for fabric's Saturday night mix series and yes, the tracklist features a smattering of producers you might expect if you've seen the man DJ lately.
Its truly an impeccable mix, spun together by one of dubstep's stand out artists in 2009. His sense of timing and mood is superb and the selection features several of the remixes forthcoming on his own 3024 label.
“I did the whole mix CD live just because I thought that was more honest than doing an Ableton DJ mix," he muses. "It is how I would play live - not everything on the CD is perfect, but it’s not meant to be. That goes for my DJ sets and for my music as well; there’s always little bits and pieces that could have been much better or more streamlined or whatever, but that’s the beauty of music to me. I wanted it to be raw and honest. As for the selection, I just wanted to try and make it as varied as possible and get people from all different corners of the globe together on one CD. The idea of it was to bring together all these sounds and vibes, something I would never be able to do on a studio album, just because I’m not able to make all that sort of music. It's amazing music though, I love it, so I want to play it to people.”

Lower End Spasm are laying host to a minimix of grime instrumentals done by Kode 9 a few years back, that is based around the loose theme of 'a momentary glitch in the supposedly predictable sonic geography of London dance music,' a micro genre dubbed sinogrime.
"I did this mix a few years ago that was just Jammer and Wiley and Target - of just half an hour of these Chinese-style plinky-plonk sounds…" explains Kode 9, "it was a bit sloppy, but it is fucking amazing music. Those guys were just on taking an aspect of hip-hop and blending it with really quite jarring, brash melodies."
Yep, the time is here... today's the day we can bring you that exclusive Slugabed track taken from the super limited 12", '251109' (which features a track from each of the 6 artist on the bill), being pressed for all of those lucky Londoners attending the Ramp Recordings jam at The Lightbox in Vauxhall next Wednesday with Tokimonsta, P.U.D.G.E, Shortstuff, SBTRKT vs Sampha and the White Sugh Knight.
'Thump Ass' is a straight shot of Sluggo; contorted computer squeals pitted against super tough drum pumps and erratic melody lines. An insight into the hype and the studio of the young Brighton based beatmaker.
