Plugout Festival er en elektronisk musikfestival, der foregår på noget så eksotisk som renæssanceslottet Engelsholm nær Vejle over tre dage, fra den 7.-9. juni. Den er fuld af gode navne fra den danske elektroniske scene, både de mere etablerede kunstnere og nyere navne, der er så undergrund, at jeg faktisk ikke har kunnet opstøve noget info eller musik fra dem på det store Internet. Jeg er personligt vild med naturlige lyde i elektronisk musik, og det er præcist, hvad der kendtegner de kunstnere, jeg vil anbefale som must-sees på Plugout Festival. [...]

Last week, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Los Angeles-based artist and producer Brendan Angelides before his performance as ESKMO at New York's Highline Ballroom. Since then, Angelides has finished his Language / Terra tour. During the conversation we touched on many things including how he approaches new projects, his influences, the importance of striking a balance between ones personal life and the work that they do, and his label, Ancestor Media : AT WHAT POINT DID ANCESTOR COME INTO PLAY? I was [...]

Last night ESKMO performed an incredible set at the Highline Ballroom in New York, NY for the second night of his Language / Terra tour. NY-Native, Harrison Waxzenberg AKA Horizon Wireless got things moving early, with an hour long set blending minimal tech house with trip hop in what he's dubbed "Houseadelica." He'll be performing at this summer's The Big Up festival, which is returning to upstate New York after a year hiatus. [...]

Los Angeles-based artist Brendan Angelides is a musical Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde, releasing material under the separate identities Welder and ESKMO . With two major releases - Vines and Stream , released on Cyberset in 2006 and, the more recent, Florescence released on Ancestor Media in 2011 - Welder is technical but atmospheric, being both ambient and memorable. On the contrary, the evolving project that is ESKMO has been a darker, more emotional outlet for Angelides, melding elements of dubstep, tech house, and rock with syncopated rhythms, often unpredictable [...]
Eskmo dropte gisteren een nieuwe mix met onder meer onbekend, maar ook bekend werk (zoals van de Language EP). De Earth and Words mix is ook te downloaden, gewoon even de link volgen.

There are some artists who lie within the title of "composer" more than others, Eskmo one of those surely. His compositions are, to say the least, versatile. His style, to say the least, is eclectic. And his sound is, to say the least, stunning. The Los Angeles based producer uses music as his language, aiming to communicate messages and emotions through his compositions. Where Eskmo doesn't fall by the wayside is in his execution, as his goal is achieved as soon as one listens. His self-titled debut full-length in 2010 put him on the map, and [...]
Using banging pipes, paper tearing, claps, his vocals, it's all that and a bag of chips...literally.
The Indiecision Five at 5 is our attempt at sharing our musical tastes with you, and showcasing music from around the world. Each day at 5pm sharp, one NH7 writer or staffer will bring you five songs he/she is listening to on the day.

Brendan Angelides, who we interviewed a while back about his Welder project, will be releasing a new EP, Terra , under his heavier Eskmo moniker on January 21 on Ancestor Records (he's also released on much-loved labels like Ninja Tune , Warp Records and Planet Mu ). The new EP is the flip side to his stellar October release Language , departing from that EP's lighter, more ethereal sound and moving into something dark and almost industrial. In terms of tone, although perhaps not style, this EP reminds [...]

The new year brings the world a mix of tentative waiting with a sensitive touch of reflective sentimentality. While the mainstreamers await a new track from Justin Timberlake, we await Julian Lynch's new album Lines due March 26 on Underwater Peoples. Then with MIA getting told by Interscope to "darken up" her forthcoming album Matangi, the release date wait has been extended until April while Maya reconfigures all things pertaining to her relevance. But then a love not got slipped...

You might recognize Eskmo as the mastermind behind 20102s unexpected hit, " Cloudlight ," but it's been a hot minute since we last heard from the LA-based producer. This autumn brought the end of the radio silence, however, with the absolutely epic Lanuage EP -five lush, exotic and bass-infused numbers that signaled something of a stylistic departure from the artist's previous releases. Earlier today, in anticipation of the January 21st release of Eskmo's Terra EP (out 1/21/13 on the artist's own Ancestor imprint), Mixmag released an exclusive first-listen via Soundcloud of [...]

Le producteur basé à Los Angeles prépare un EP portant le nom « Terra », qui est prêt à sortir le 21 janvier prochain. Fidèle à lui même nous avons le droit à un mélange de sonorités avec sa voix auto-tuné par dessus, un mélange qui a fait son effet jusqu'à présent et qui continu avec « Buffalo ». Ce 7 titres est attendu au tournant et sera dispo chez Ancestor (son label), tout comme sa dernière sortie.

De nieuwe EP van Eskmo is vandaag gereleased op zijn eigen Ancestor label. Qua stijl is het de Eskmo die we kennen: technisch, maar vooruitstrevend wat betreft geluid. Het is de eerste plaat sinds zijn in 2010 verschenen self-titled album. Naast dat de EP verkrijgbaar is op iTunes , is Language , zoals de plaat heet, ook te downloaden via het Name Your Price-systeem . Zo kun je dus zelf bepalen of je 1, 3 of 5 dollar wilt uitgeven aan Brendan Angelides' nieuwste plaat. Daarnaast kun je hieronder de nieuwe EP [...]

Brendan Angelides aka Eskmo et de retour pour un cinq titres qui sortira le 30 octobre sur sa propre entité, Ancestor .« Language EP » s'annonce tout bonnement excellent, on se souvient de ses photos sur Twitter et Instagram lorsqu'il était en pleine phase de production, il expliquait que sa vision de la musique était encore un peu différente et qu'il allait revenir avec un vent de fraicheur. Le premier titre « I Just Want » disponible en free download en est la preuve, alors autant dire que l'on attend les quatre [...]
