Blocks and Escher - Embers / Overlook - Three Shards (Narratives004) You may have noticed over the course of the last year or so that Narratives Music has become a firm favourite of both the editorial and the readership of EDJ. The former evidenced by this, the fourth consecutive 12" of the Week for the label, the later (and far more important) by the fact that you lot voted Narratives 003 single of the year in the Alternative Drum and Bass Awards. I've babbled on about [...]

Dallas based emcee Block released his newest single Cool Like That featuring Lady Jane . Collaborating with the talented female producer CeCe G , Block takes a different approach to hip-hop by laying his lyrics over a fist-pumping-friendly beat. Listen below: Is this a Hit or Miss? Let us know. The post Block ft. Lady Jane - Cool Like That [Hit Or Miss] appeared first on Your Strongest Ally .

Produced by Block We warned you a few days ago about Louie and Durk's upcoming collabo album, Project X . We also told you we'd had a leak waiting in the wings, and today we deliver. The first official offering from Project X is "I Love Money," produced by Block On Da Trakk. This is part of Louie's Care Package series, where he's going to be releasing an abundance of free material for his fans all this week and next. 'Tis the season, right? Check back in a [...]
You are probably aware by now that Narratives Music is a firm favourite here at EDJ. Through its creators Blocks and Escher, it has forged an outlook on dnb and music in general that has commanded admiration throughout the scene and beyond in just three releases. That speaks volumes. Quality over quantity, it's something that we strive for at EDJ towers and as you can imagine, have a great deal of respect for anyone that does the same. Aside from that, the thing I personally love about Narratives' output is the wider themes it tries to incorporate. If you've checked [...]
Narratives Music's third release is iminent and this week a little preview video went up on You Tube to increase the growing sense of anticipation. Lots of nice words being said by those in the know about this single and for good reason, the drum work on both tunes is second to none. Look out for something a little deeper on this from us as we edge closer towards the release date of 29th October. If you really can't wait, you might want to make sure you're first in line and pre order over at Surus from this [...]
Get ready for some more of that new-new (ok two week old, but still) trap music, as Diplo (under his nom de bass, Major Lazer) shows the budding genre some love with his remix of Hot Chip's post-electronic and extremely melodramatic 'Look at Where We Are'. The mega-producer is perfectly happy to show us where he is [...]
Esce finalmente anche in Italia il gustosissimo Attack the Block pellicola inglese che mescola la fantascienza ad una sana ed ironica denuncia sociale. Ambientato nelle periferie londinesi Attack the Block è la storia di un gruppo di ragazzi alle prese con l'assalto alla terra di un gruppo di cazzutissimi alieni. La colonna sonora del film è stata scritta da Basement Jaxx e da Steve Price- Continua a leggere Attack the Block: la colonna sonora del film di fantascineza è targata Basement Jaxx... [...]
![Album Reviews By 12-Year-Olds: The Pining, The Pining [Blocks Recording Club, 2011]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4283265_lg.jpg)
I don’t listen to country music very often but The Pining is a good band to start listening to. Toronto’s Tara, Emma, Julie, Kaili, Dani and Mika began as an un-intentional gathering of girls singing. They got more dedicated when they started to write their own songs. The Pining is an indie-country-folk band. The very first song of the album right away catches your ears! Call It Quits is a very catchy song as are most of the songs in this album. Already on the second time [...]

Essi & Blocks - Down The time has come when we unleash upon the world the second release from our label No Stranger To Danger. The protagonist is at a certain age when most of us would only be preoccupied with girls and getting smashed. Although I am pretty sure that is the case here as well he finds time to come up with this amazing amalgam of chopped up R&B samples and heavy contagious bass. His name is Essi & Blocks and expect to hear more of him very very soon. [...]
Any regular on FMB will know we are a sucker for an arp. This one is pretty tracking and uplifting, imo a prefect track to finish a night when the lights come up. Dropped on BNJMN's album Plastic World earlier in the year...This is what RA had to say about the track... "A lucky few would have first heard BNJMN through "Blocks," which made a few memorable appearances in podcasts surrounding an extremely limited and mysterious single release on Rush Hour. Instantly affecting, "Blocks" is so very current in that it's not [...]
It's a bank holiday weekend here in the UK. That means it will rain and you'll be stuck indoors all weekend. Sorry. So dull your aching sorrows with this Fact mix from Shlohmo. It's pretty psychedelic I'd say, incorporating slowed down Tears For Fears and a broken tape of Prince's 'Nothing Compares 2 U', (as covered etc) to the extent that the Tom Waits track sounds positively mainstream. Good stuff. Don't try raving to it though. For the tracklist and interview head over to the Fact page. [...]
