The fact that Cuttooth hails from my home city, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, is just a happy coincidence. If I were the type to be swayed by such a petty coincidence these pages would be riddled with hard house and folk music. Fortunately, that's not the case and my saying so should add further credence to the adulation I'm about to heap upon this delightful fellow. His name is Nick "Cuttooth" Cooke and he makes crackly, analog-tinged abstract hip-hop and IDM. I truly do predict great things for this guy; with an album [...]
Instead of taking advantage of a Friday night like any 20 year old should, I'm sat in front of my laptop staring at a blank word document titled 'Dissertation Draft'. But it's cool because I've just had the privilege of listening to this super mellowed-out track by Newcastle producer Cuttooth . It's called Old Tape Machine, and it features the most perfectly matched vocals from Hitomi of King Midas Sound . You should probably give it a listen:
Después de que Japan se separó en el punto más álgido de su carrera por allá de 1981, la carrera de David Sylvian ha dado giros sumamente inesperados para todos, pasando por colaboraciones con artistas de la talla de Ryuichi Sakamoto, Robert Fripp, Holger Czukay (de Can), Otomo Yoshihide y Toshimaru Nakimura, Keith Rowe y John Tilbury (de AMM), y siempre manteniendo sus producciones con una calidad impecable. Esta no es la primera colección de canciones de "el hombre más encantador del mundo" (según The Sun), pero sin duda es la primera enfocada a "una nueva [...]
If you've been even remotely regular in following this blog, our number one shouldn't come as a surprise - I believe I've already bothered you enough with my love of Gang Gang Dance's latest effort (and GGD in general ). I'll leave the list unnumbered because, except for the first 7-8 entries, the rest come in kind of (but not entirely) particular order. And it's not a strictly albums -of-the-year list, as I've included some mixtapes/remix albums/ compilations. Also, I just realised we haven't covered half of this on the blog… Don't [...]

★★★★☆ An ear-catcher in dub and dubstep, soul and poetry, King Midas Sound's 2009 effort Waiting for You had honeyed tonsils shared between Roger Robinson and Kiki Hitomi run over by Kevin Martin’s oppressive bass. Where Massive Attack became the instant point of comparison, Without You is taken to a more stressful plain by a selection of hired guns pushing down on the source’s soothing points. If the first act took you into darkness, the second coming goes further beyond the night, KMS scrabbling on their hands and knees as instructed by [...]
Heavy remix package for King Midas Sound's 'Without You' (Reworks of their debut 'Waiting For You'), you get the likes of Kuedo, Fly Lo, Kode 9 and Gang Gang Dance all bringing maximum heat to the party; Unlike most remix albums there's not a duff track on the record, we feature Cooly G's version of 'Spin Me Around'; Inertia creeps slowly. Out now on Hyperdub . King Midas Sound- Spin Me Around (Cooly G Revoice) (Download)

[RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] Honestly one of my favorite things Dabrye has done, if Burial ever switched gears in his sound I think it goes something like this. Also, Dabrye is touring again after a long hiatus, here's some dates: 11.09 Los Angeles, CA @ LOW END THEORY (DJ SET) 11.10 San Francisco, CA @ SOM BAR (DJ SET) 11.26 Manchester, UK @ THE ROADHOUSE Too cool for school is the attitude i'm getting from [...]
Well, now. It's Monday, and that means it's time for our weekly roundup of the best and/or most notable albums streaming for free from across the expanses of the world wide web. And more importantly, it also means it's time to listen to the David Lynch album in full, at last. YAY. And it's good! There's also new albums from The Decemberists, Laura Veirs, King Midas Sound… and (gulp) the Scott Weiland Christmas album. We swear we're not making this up. Anyway, click through and get listening.

Illustration by Pablo Jeffer Da Silva [Hyperdub] One need only look at Kevin Martin's shapeshifting musical history in bands like God, Ice, and Techno-Animal as well as his own alias The Bug, to understand how King Midas Sound so readily leaps between different sounds. Meshing various strands of dub and electronic influence, Martin, along with Hitomi and Roger Robinson, continually open themselves up to rethinking their own [...]
Don't call it a remix! That's the word from the King Midas Sound camp about the sonic re-imaginings that are at the center of their upcoming album release, Without You . While it finds the trio enlisting an impressive array of friends in order to rework tracks from their 2009 debut album, Waiting For You , King Midas means for Without You to be more in the tradition of reggae artists who offer up dub versions of their tracks, especially those who oversee the dubbing themselves. After all, KMS is known for combining reggae [...]
Cuttooth teams up with King Midas Sound’s Hitomi for new track
The fact that Cuttooth hails from my home city, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, is just a happy coincidence. If I were the type to be swayed by such a petty coincidence these pages would be riddled with hard house and folk music.

Instead of taking advantage of a Friday night like any 20 year old should, I'm sat in front of my laptop staring at a blank word document titled 'Dissertation Draft'. But it's cool because I've just had the privilege of listening to this super mellowed-out track by Newcastle producer Cuttooth . It's called Old Tape Machine, and it features the most perfectly matched vocals from Hitomi of King Midas Sound . You should probably give it a listen:
Artist: cuttooth Title: Old Tape Machine feat. Hitomi File Name: SoundCloud Genre: Downbeat
Listen: Evian Christ (“Thrown like Jacks”) x The Velvet Underground (“Venus in Furs”)
Kiki from King Midas Sound works a little magic and adds some flair to this take on The Velvet Underground 's classic "Venus In Furs" using Evian Christ 's "Thrown Like Jacks" as a backdrop. If The Velvet Underground are sacred to you, you'll probably hate this, but if you also hold dear the advancement of music and enjoy the shit out of Evian Christ , you'll probably really like this, taken from Kiki's "Hitomimixtape" [...]

King Midas Sound: Without You
Here is a remixed, "revoiced" version of the trio's moody, dubby Waiting For You . With Scritti Politti! It seems a little strange on the surface, releasing a remix version of an album that is two years old. King Midas Sound's debut, Waiting for You (2009), was a masterstroke in deep, dark, moody bass music complemented by warm, soulful vocals and smart lyrics. The album was so stark and intimate, it functioned as a single capsule of sound. Why pry that capsule open two years later and have a bunch of outside DJs...

State X – New Forms 2011: niets is wat het lijkt
Vrijdag 9 december Hoewel Eclectro vooral van nullen en enen houdt, legt de redactie tijdens de openingsavond van State X - New Forms in Den Haag haar oor juist te luister bij 2 analoge acts. Zo bouwt Goslink , het alter ego van Harm Goslink Kuiper, zijn eigen gitaren, banjo's en violen voor alt country met een kleinkunstenaarstwist. Samen met zijn violiste annex achtergrondzangeres presenteert hij in de kleine zaal van het Paard van Troje melancholische blues van zijn debuutalbum Stil Leven op Excelsior. De muziek en samenzang zijn mooi, de tekstuele vondsten [...]
Album Review: King Midas Sound / ‘Without You’ (Hyperdub)
★★★★☆ An ear-catcher in dub and dubstep, soul and poetry, King Midas Sound's 2009 effort Waiting for You had honeyed tonsils shared between Roger Robinson and Kiki Hitomi run over by Kevin Martin’s oppressive bass. Where Massive Attack became the instant point of comparison, Without You is taken to a more stressful plain by a selection of hired guns pushing down on the source’s soothing points. If the first act took you into darkness, the second coming goes further beyond the night, KMS scrabbling on their hands and knees as instructed by [...]
