Fresh from dropping a collab beat tape with Breezewax Evan Awake, a German producer who focuses on mash ups but makes his own beats, dropped this mix, his first. It's a dope 40 minute journey through the kind of music he likes, alotta funky, jazzy hip hop that you might expect from him like Nujabes, supplemented with a bit music from other genres too. This is just Side A of the tape, no doubt he'll put up Side B pretty soon so keep an eye out on his Youtube channel [...]

The Backwoods is the new side project of Kento Sasaki (DJ Kent), one half of Force of Nature (KZA/Yotsukaido Nature). Kento's first single 'Sunstream/Midnight Run' has just been brought out on Japanese record label Ene - featuring on the same label is Sly Mongoose, Tiago, et al. You can purchase it from Juno right here . The debut Backwoods album has also just been released which I believe CDJapan is the cheapest for importing it. Digital release coming soon.

Dipped in Dollars is proud to present our April Mix of the Month , where we ask an up-and-coming artist to present us with a mix that will allow us to gain a better perspective of their process/show us what we can expect to hear from them in the future. Smax is a producer from Karachi, Pakistan who's steadily making a name for himself in the United States. I asked him to create something raw and organic, and this is what showed up in my mailbox. Tracklist provided below [...]

Love the plugs. This week coming should be a good one - Hugs (kinda the sequel to Bandits) is reeling in Perth sensation-boi Shazam for a big night this Friday at Nevermind , Sydney. I hear his sets are brilliantly eclectic and he's backed by Kato, Sleater Brockman and my old crush Sunday School. Gogogogo, should be an excellent night with excellent music in an excellent club. ALSO, tomorrow Spank Records and Bang Gang 12 Inches open the gates on a killer remix competition for Aussie producers. The best remix of [...]

Hey everyone. Just wanted to quickly share some sweeeeet music with y'all. I don't really watch anime, but in terms of soundtracks, some of the most thoughtful arranging and composition can be heard in shows like Cowboy Bebop, for example. A friend of mine recently gave me the soundtrack to Samurai Champloo, a Shinichirō Watanabe creation. It features work by producers, musicians and artists: Nujabes, Fat Jon, MINMI, Force Of Nature, Tsutchie. It's amazing. Once again, I don't know much about the show, but the use of sampling, sequencing and [...]
Having a bit of a Prins Thomas moment right now after finding a record of his I thought I'd lost and giving it another whirl. I was supposed to post his Force of Nature mix before I left and somehow missed putting it in the pile, so here it is belated and brilliant. Super chunky bass, hot percussion. His ability to sound like a true master of everything inbetween cosmic disco and techno is pretty impressive. Force of Nature - To The Brain (Prins Thomas Diskomiks) These are a [...]

Saturday night and I step on the accelerator of my Porsche Carrera gathering such speed the Morse code of street lights on the sides of the road transform into snakes of neon, or ley-lines re-erupting from under the concrete to merge into a multicoloured band the breath of Chinese ...
First off, before I commence the music write-up wizbang stuff, I just want to say Fred Falke was amazing . If you missed him in Melbourne (or any other gig for that matter) then I am very disappointed with you... unless you had a rad-ass excuse. But I doubt that. Live bass over 'Intro' - enough said! To get started I'm introducing Act Yo Age , signed to Ajax's label ' Sweat It Out '. With new remixes on the horizon: Franz & Shape on Relish , Larry [...]
I bought one^^^ If i'd have been blogging two-years ago i'd have been posting about The Vermicious Knid with great enthusiasm, such was my adoration for their sound. My adoration never stopped, just keeps getting shelved for a while, then making a welcome return after just enough time for me to forget how blatantly amazing they were and enough time for their unexpected twists mid-song to completely wow me all over again. Smalltown Devotion Hometown Compulsion in my eyes is the most under-appreciated indie album in pretty much [...]
