Filed under: Concerts and Tours , Video , Exclusive , Q + A Gino DePinto for AOL Los Angeles producer Daedelus could easily play you an accordion ditty, but for solo performances, he prefers electronic music and its "limitless palette of sound." As a pioneer of the monome, he knows a thing or two about experimenting musically, and was ecstatic to discover so many like-minded musicians and labels at this year's SXSW . [...]
Daedelus has recently embarked on the 3rd Magical Properties tour with friends Shlohmo (whose debut album "Bad Vibes" is set to be released via Friends of Friends in June) and Tokimonsta. I was able to catch up with him last week and got a grasp of what Magical Properties is all about and saw how the tour has been going. Special thanks to Friends of Friends for arranging this and to Alfred for being such a down to earth dude. Can you give us a little history on the origins of your label, Magical Properties? [...]
Following releases on such respected imprints as Warp , Brainfeeder and Stones Throw , April 11th will see Daedelus unleash his next full length album project "Bespoke" on the mighty Ninja Tune. New single "Tailor Made" gives us a final taster of what to expect on the album and despite the original impressing, it's the Floating Points remix that blew us away. Taking the energetic feel of the original and slowing things down to a mild saunter, it instantly conjures up images of smoke filled jazz bars and welcomes you [...]

Looking the part for SXSW South by South West (SXSW) 25th Anniversary was a shit show of music, fans, and characters. Forgive me if we spare you the details, and decide instead to cut the filler and get into the meat. These are the bands we heard, even for a moment, with a short reaction. Daedelus Reaction : Daedelus, born Alfred, continues to wear button down clothes that are far too hot for the occasion. We realize that regal and sweaty is a look, but [...]
A great rap overlaid on to the original "Something Bells" track. I guess you can call it electro-hop or something like that. Daedelus-Something Bells (With Busdriver And Pigeon John) Filed under: Electronic , Hip-Hop/Rap , Music Tagged: Busdriver , Daedelus , Pigeon John

There are two sides to remixes; the ones that ambiently sit back to the track and just simply add notes here and there, and then there are the ones that blow the shit out of the track and pick up that pace. This beauty is the latter. When I was sorting through the subs and picked up on this one, I LOVED the remix. Usually when I review remixes, it's because I love the original track so much that I'm pretty rough on the DJ who chooses to put some makeup on that track... this was not the case. Listening [...]

A couple of months back Jeremy provoked an interesting question, what tunes are real hip-hop? And the responses were fairly diverse; we got classic instrumentals , a variety of underground hip-hop from Binary Star to Cunninlynguists , battle rhymes , old school , nu school . But what about stuff like Daedelus and Flying Lotus? Is there anything in the mainstream nowadays that people would define as 'real' Hip-Hop? Maybe Tyler the Creator is right and we're all too narrow minded! So, what do you think, what song defines [...]
