Our man in Montreal Hissy Fit has been promising us a mix for some time. We're sure you'll agree it's been worth the wait as he managed to fit it in around some mammoth studio sessions for his latest releases. The new project sees him releasing six EP's in six weeks (stream all the tracks via his Soundcloud and pick them up at <a href=" his Bandcamp ) and don't forget that his free EP for us is still available. You can download Hissy Fits's Test Tube mix [...]

Our man in Montreal, Hissy Fit has been in the studio working on some new bits including a new EP and an album for later in the year. We have had a listen to some of his new stuff and it's top drawer. His new EP "Fingervox" continues his move towards a more bass driven techno sound, with plenty of meat on the bones. Juicy stuff! Check the EP below and don't forget to grab the free EP he put together for us last year.

Big up the Moustache Mamas ! After dominating one our Forgive Me Lord For I Have Synth partie s last year we've been firmly in awe of their disco/techno hybrid sound and are well looking forward to this release on Hissy Fit from March 5th. The track will be appearing alongside 2 new Death On The Balcony cuts as well...

Since his early releases on Car Crash Set and of course our own Phuturelabs label , Matthew Hiscock aka Hissy Fit has been building himself a solid reputation in not only his home city of Montreal but far further afield. He was identified as one to watch by US magazine and Labs favourite XLR8R and some of his mixes are becoming staple listening when some quality house, techno and dubstep vibes are required. There is no doubt that his sound has developed towards the pureer form of house [...]

You may not know it but the 19th to the 23rd of September is Social Media Week all over the world. This year Glasgow is one of the host cities and we thought we should join in and put an event on. We've teamed up with our friends at Radio Magnetic to provide an event that can be enjoyed by everyone, either present on the night or at a computer. The Magnetic Labs closing party will run from 9pm to 3am GMT on Friday 23rd, is free entry and will feature electronic acts streaming [...]

Since his Crosstrainers EP release on our label last year, Hissy Fit has continued to steadily build himself a reputation as a quality purveyor of electronic beats. With releases on Swing And Skip in recent months, as well as live and DJ slots at various nights in Canada it's been a busy time. His new track "Sunshine" shows how diverse his production style has become with a more house related vibe. There is a lovely acid line throughout the track and a sweet soulful vocal. No release details on this [...]

Sach O : demented raver in a quarter-life crisis. Happy 4th from your neighbors to the North. May it be filled with grilled meats, fireworks and no old British ladies on your money. I'm a fan of UK Bass, the UK Monarchy? Not so much. I have no idea what Hissy Fit's politics are but he just liberated this new jam full of bleepy bass, beats and a chopped up R&B vocal which is apparently "the Hissy Fit thang." Funny, I always thought "the Hissy Fit thang" was acting slightly snooty at Dubstep shows and eating [...]

Port City Brooklyn es un barrio tan poblado como la ciudad de Barcelona. Sus calles al sur este de Manhattan vieron nacer al astronomo y físico Carl Sagan , aquel que divulgó sobre los misterios del universo, aquel que nos hizo soñar con las estrellas. A 2011 las consciencias de todos los seres humanos están empezando a despertar y confluir de una manera nunca antes conocida en esta parte del universo y como muestra desde Brooklyn os traemos a dos bandas y un mismo sujeto Jorge Torrens. Por una parte las melodías [...]

We asked our man Hissy Fit to give us his take on 2010 and he has given us a stellar selection of beats to get into. He also has a new EP out now on Swing and Skip called "Berry". You can pick the whole thing up here and also grab the "Berry Dubby Dub" tune below. Hissy Fit - Berry Dubby Dub Now onto his favourite beats from the year.... Hissy Fit - Top 10 of 2010 [...]
Hissy Fit : Milk Jacuzzi - MP3 + Free EP On ne sait pas encore très bien qui se cache derrière le projet lo-fi Hissy Fit . On sait qu'ils sont installés à Brooklyn et que leur premier EP, Trou de Ver sera dispo le 31 décembre… Mais qu'il est à choper, gratis, sur la page Bandcamp du groupe. Une collection de trois titres électro, glo-fi dans lesquels résonnent de lourds synthés. C'est léger et lumineux, relevé de [...]

( Photo credit: Matthew Hiscock by Matthew Hollett, courtesy of Hissy Fit ) Over the past couple weeks alone, under his Hissy Fit pseudonym, beat-maker Matthew Hiscock has already released a live podcast via Swing and Skip Records and an EP via Phuturelabs . He also has a another full-length 123 on its way next month via S&S, and still the Newfoundland-born producer finds time to currate a bass-friendly music blog . In speaking of the Crosstrainers EP, which is available in its entirety as a free [...]

Sach O doesn't own a car, let alone a garage. MTL has a dope subway yo'. UK Garage never truly caught on the first time around in North-America. Too busy getting jiggy to our own, we didn't have time for London's champagne fueled dance craze: rap albums were selling 5 million copies! It didn't help that a lot of what made Garage special got lost in translation: without proper live emceeing, pirate radio and UK club culture, Garage often seemed soft, girlie and flighty, particularly compared to the D&B madness we'd only just become [...]

SQUEAKY CLEAN GARAGE - A cracking little EP released this week on PhutureLabs. Hailing from Montreal producer Hissy Fit probably has a beard on his chin and a sturdy axe in his garage as well as a studio in bedroom. First I've heard of the chap,doubt it will be the last. Have a snoop through his stuff, the strongest cut for me is the garage fix of Cross Trainers, a highly polished late night 2 step number that trips on and on. Smart artwork as well. more info and downloads available here

2nd release on Phuturelabs is from Canadian producer Hissy Fit, the tracks featured below have gained some interest across the blogosphere and from London's very own, Sinden. All tracks a free for your pleasure, so grab some nice garage/dubstep sounding numbers. Crosstrainers (Garage rework) Outdoor Life Crosstrainers Outdoor Life (No Guitar mix)

Sach O throws tantrums not fits. At the top of the year, I wrote a post on an impressionable young man named Matthew Hiscock whose off-kilter beats, unlike most other unsolicited music I receive, somehow managed to get into my iTunes playlist. To his credit, they were very good beats. Since then, Matthew has wisely adopted the (slightly) tougher moniker Hissy Fit and has linked up with Montreal's Swing & Skip crew, dropping a single on Boomkat , hitting up Montreal radio and generally making his presence known at every [...]

Two serious basscasts this week ... Plugcast 004 comes in from Montreal's multi-talented DJ/Producer/Blogger Matthew Hiscock . This fantastic mix comes packed with some fresh future-dub vibes from my beloved hometown with tunes from Hissy Fit (Hiscock's production moniker), Skinnybones and Bowly (all Montreal natives) as well as Headhunter & Invisible's ultra-infectious Love Dup from from the always incredible Soul Motive camp! From 2004 to 2007 Matthew ran Bodega Records with releases that garnered support from [...]
