With the lines of genre distinction becoming ever more blurry in modern electronic music, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to pin down a producer's sound. In the case of Luke Blair, recording under the name Lukid, saying simply that he makes electronic music seems like the safest bet, for the producer incorporates so many differing elements in his releases that listing them all would be an exercise in futility. The young Brit seemingly came out of nowhere in early 2007 with the immediately arresting album Onandon , and has followed up the acclaim that accompanied the long player [...]
Okay, it took me a couple of weeks to clock this, but the new EP from Samoyed is as stark as it is beautiful. Like a lost, grizzled, almost Matthew Dear -like tune, the course, uncomfortable electronics flash wildly and unpredictably, as if listening too intently could make you seasick. Samoyed 's an interesting one. He doesn't seem to peak his head over the hill often enough, but when he does it's damn pleasing. He's apparently been messing around with Lukid and Tapes recently, which sounds like [...]
![[unclassified]: A Compilation from Adult Swim](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3754281_lg.jpg)
Adult Swim has been a supporter of cutting edge music for a while, with tracks from artists like Flying Lotus and Clams Casino gracing their content. However, I don't think the true depth of their cultural coolness struck me until I was shown this compilation, with a tracklist that sends shivers down the spine of even the most jaded music fan. Download: Ginz - Chrome This free compilation seemingly came out of nowhere with tracks (some previously unreleased) from future garage, dubstep, and other innovative bass artists [...]
Chart courtesy of The Economist 01. Massimiliano Pagliara, "A Wrong Chance" (Tuff City Kids Remix) [ Live At Robert Johnson ] ( buy ) Stylistically diverse and capably executed, Massimiliano Pagliara's debut full-length, Focus For Infinity , could rank among the year's best dance music albums. Yet for reasons I can't quite understand, it somehow managed to be overlooked by most critics and listeners. If there's any justice, the Live At Robert Johnson-released remix EPs will rekindle interest in the excellent originals. [...]
There's a lot of online backlash and negative talk surrounding the term Dubstep nowadays, or electronic music in general. We can all jump on Words With Friends and create hilarious subgenres or phonetic spellings of what we think the music sounds like, or just have our own personal banks of genres that we make up on the spot and post on Tumblr, or, we can even whine about how UK and European producers came up with a style of music that Americans didn't. But the truth is, electronic music is taking us somewhere, and there is no other genre or [...]
Photo by Ștefan Lucuț [Glum] The dreamy GLUM001 , released late last year, saw Lukid adapting his production style to fluid, expansive dance tracks. Contrastingly, the four pieces on GLUM002 sit closer to the material on his albums; they're shorter and more diverse, focusing on intricate, hard-edged drum programming above all else. On "My Teeth In Your Neck," a yearning [...]

Questo brano sta fottendo il cervello del sottoscritto da circa tre settimane. Se non vi basta ascoltare, allora potrete anche guardare . Il video dà assuefazione. Io ve l'ho detto. Lukid > Stripes photo via the blogger himself
BNJMN (aka Ben Thomas) has been bubbling under for the last 12 months with some lesser known tunes and remixes doing the rounds. His album of electronica house infused with Detroit DNA on Rush Hour brought him to everyones attention. His new EP on Svetlana Industries contains much of the same vibe as the album but with leaning towards 2 step and a less rapid feel. There are also 2 remixes by Kelpe and Lukid lined up, with the former exploring a faster pace than we have been [...]
BJMN does not leave much time go by, after his depute LP on Rush Hour , he is now releasing via Svetlana Industries an EP with four original tracks and two remixes by Lukid and by Kelpe . This is a remix on his track One Sea by Lukid. Enjoy the ultimate trippyness! Tweet

Британский продюсер Lukid, один из участников Brianfeeder, составил небольшую инструкцию о наболевшем – о том, как подходить к музыкантам после концерта. Итак… Как подойти ко мне после концерта. Руководство для чайников от Lukid. Представь ситуацию. Ты только что стал свидетелем того, как я отыграл свой новый легендарный сет. То, что ты видел, потрясло тебя до глубины души. То, что ты когда-то считал «музыкой» теперь излишне, и теперь ты понял, что 22 года предыдущей жизни не имели никакого смысла. И вот ты видишь, как я сижу один в баре, потягиваю коктейль и выгляжу как Джеймс Бонд или типа того. Естественно, ты инстинктивно хочешь подойти ко мне. Но подожди! Это момент, когда нужно [...]
[ Glum ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) English producer Lukid is best known for his wonky beats material on Werk Discs, with three albums, an EP, and a few scattered odds and ends to his name. In November, the producer minted his own Glum imprint with the release of Boxing Club/Blind Spot . Its two tracks maintain his crisp production values and asymmetrical, minimalist structures, while simultaneously marking his first foray into what might loosely be termed as techno. "Boxing Club" and "Blind Spot" are [...]
Goooood mornin! I still can't get over that Jack Dixon EP, we posted earlier this week. Holy shit. Here's a rare, 2007 Hudmo remix of Lukid (taken from The Now EP). Lukid - The Now (Hudson Mohawke remix) *MUST grab his "Foma" record, clearly. - Dropping Gems shared some DL's this week. And I was ... Read more
[RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] It was sad to hear about the loss of the singer from The Slits just a bit ago, this new song by Anika on Stones Throw reminds me alil bit of that of what I liked about The Slits , the power in the voice isn't there here but the charm of how loose and free the making of the music is something i've always wised I could do and this girl has that. i'm a sucker for sampled cut up guitars [...]
In May, a piece of artwork published via Werk Discs's Twitter page hinted at the imminent release of his new and much-longed-for album, "Chord". So far not much is known about Lukid's forthcoming hybrid album (besides new cuts, the tracklist of "Chord" also includes three tracks...
The LuckyMe collective are an extended family of musicians and artists founded in Scotland, UK. Formed in the spring of 2002 they started by putting on genre bending parties at various venues firstly locally and then everywhere from London, Barcelona and NYC. We love how they combine art, visuals and music together to create a really special party vibe. Its no wonder artists such as Hudson Mohawke , American Men , Mike Slott and Rustie are on the roster. The crew have been been good enough to put their tunes [...]
Lukid 's often vital SoundCloud streams don't tend to hang about ( the last one was gone in days, though the excellent woozy one before that remains up), so you shouldn't either: take in the nicely nagging, snappily shuffling Boxing club & the found voice snippet Outside Marathon below while you still can... LuckyMe mix (#65). Weekly live show (Monday, 9pm UK). Boxing club by lukid [...]
Vastly more urgent than its subject, but with the same compelling self-possession & nagging accuracy: the latest of Lukid 's SoundClouded treats. Hear its future garage briskness (all ultra-tight loops, cries & keys - look at that waveform) while you can - Luke tends to whip tracks up on to SC & down again faster than Kun Aguero in pursuit of a defence-splitting Riquelme pass... Previous coverage (one track now taken down again to prove the point) here . [...]
