Photo by Charlie Visnic After holding their last event, L.A. Monomeet 2011 , at the Downtown Independent, the Interface L.A. crew returned to the Bootleg for another set of audio-visual performances and interactive installations exploring human-computer interactions. This time, Interface teamed up with several crews, companies and websites, including LoveTech, Novation, Ableton, Create Digital Music, and Controllerism.com to bring together digital artists from around the world. We got to the Bootleg in time to catch the end of ro's set. A member of Interace's core collective, ro performed with [...]
We've just had our marriage vows renewed to ITDE, and there are exciting times ahead. Here is an exclusive mix from our very own, Axel Finn. The dude is a giant and can eat a schnitzel faster than any man, he also lays it down in a hardcore band for fun and maintains a heavy vinyl addiction between a full time job and a wonderful fiance. Axel will be a household name and popular amongst many wives in the future. Listen to his big heart and meaty hands throw down a superb live mix exclusively for us. [...]

Going backwards to go forwards we kick off 2011 with an idea first mooted in 2009. This is the first in a series of collaborative 12s, which will span a variety of tempos, frequencies and genres. Martyn and Mike Slott team up for the first one – A two track 12 – All Night backed with Pointing Fingers. No need to over elaborate this one, Martyn (3024) one of the most innovative producers, always fresh and scorning genre convention meets long time All City comrade Mike Slott (LuckyMe) via a series of emails, yousendits and skypers! It took a while [...]
LuckyMe beatsmith, Mike Slott, talks about his music and the inspiration behind it with visual composer and documentarist Adam Saewitz .
01. Drivetrain, "Lift Me High" [Soiree Records International] ( buy ) Every time I think I have a grasp on the many talents Detroit has to offer, a new record comes to reminds me how much more there is to learn. This time it's Mo 2 Meaux 2 on Soiree Recordings International, an EP that forms a bridge between the Motor City and Meaux, France. For all the talent on offer, the opening cut by Drivetrain - also known as Derrick Thompson, the proprietor behind Soiree - feels like a wake [...]
"Alamo" by Liz Hickok [ All City Records ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) Ireland's All City label has a way of dropping hidden gems from somewhat big name producers seemingly without warning. Usually focusing on abstract and playful hip-hop, particularly the kind dominant on the American West Coast, All City strikes some interesting territory with its new "Collabs" series, taking in Dutch bass producer Martyn and American weirdo Mike Slott for a surprisingly fluid team effort. [...]
The quality label from Dublin, All City have been brewing up some serious collaboration business for their label. First up in the series are DJ and production don Martyn getting together with Labs favourite Mike Slott . Our featured track "All Nights" has a swinging techno vibe that has more of the 3024 vibe, while "Pointing Fingers" sees Slott bringing the offbeat atmosphere and synth chills of his LuckyMe productions. Available now at Boomkat . Essential stuff. Martyn / [...]
At the end of 2010, Ghostly International released the debut album Full Circle by Brooklyn-based artist Shigeto. Continuing from the momentum of a slew of rave reviews, Shigeto is back again, this time with Full Circle Remixes, where he invited various remixers to rejigger his original tracks. Full Circle Remixes is a beautiful companion piece [...]
I am largely critical of mash-up artists, particularly those that lazily put original tracks through a bevy of VST plug-ins or pedals and call it a day. And even with a talented artist like Girl Talk, who uses his melodic abilities to mesh conflicting genres successfully, I find myself bored more often than not. His [...]
Substitute Teachers is a new mix series from Dipped in Dollars, where we ask an up-and-coming artist to create a mix that will provide us with a better understanding of their process. Streets Of Beige are some of the foremost beat curators working in London at the moment, and I asked its producers, The Fat Controller and Bare Girls , to make a mix that will let us know what they're all about. So far, this is the best mix of 2k11. Anyone in London must [...]
Martyn / Mike Slott - All Night (clip) Martyn / Mike Slott - Pointing Fingers (clip) "Going backwards to go forwards," says All City Records in reference to the first edition of recently debuted, 18 month old, collaboration project #1. The label, spanning its network of over two dozen artists; from the glitched out production work of Hudson Mohawk, to the smooth, west-coast rolled melodies of Frenchman Onra, to the half-timed hip hop beats of Los Angeles based Samiyam , All City has played an instrumental part in [...]

So many tunes, so little time. Was going to put these up yesterday as a tribute to Remix Sunday from the Palm's Out blog which I have sorely missed, until I realised 2 things. One - Remix Sunday is alive and well and in no need of a tribute and Two - it was Monday and I was a day late. Luckily most of these guys should need little to no introduction to our regulars so let's not waste time talking, get downloading! [...]
This Friday, September 24, our lovely friends over at Good Peoples present a one-off party from one of the hottest UK labels LuckyMe , based out of Glasgow, Scotland. This is an event so legendary it is only fitting that it take place in our very own Chinatown mini-mall turned rave hub, otherwise known as 88 Palace. LuckyMe started in the summer of 2007 as a pipe dream to run a hip-hop group in a place that wasn't on the map for hip-hop at the time. They went to the best clubs in the vicinity and thereby [...]
This one's for the homies. Love yalls. Mike Slott - Gardening
Music video for "Amanallah" by Mike Slott from his 2009 "Lucky 9Teen" EP.
Jeff sent this EP over and said he was "90% sure" I'd be into it. Fuck, I must be hard to please or something because this is so squarely in my wheel house I can't imagine why he thought 10% of me wouldn't be feeling this. American Men are a group of Scotsmen doing instrumental, [...]
