If you weren't getting tired of Spoek Mathambo 's mixtape series "H.I.V.I.P.", you should exhaust them quickly, because Sweat.X just released their 2nd EP "I'm That Alley", out now on Citinite. Their first EP "EbonyIvoryTron" was released in October of 2007 and garnered praise from most major publications Spoek hails from South Africa where he works with two production outfits, Sweat.X being an electro synth-pop group, and the other being an electo-rap group called Play Doe. His mixtapes have featured work from both of these outfits, as well as featuring [...]

I got some totally amazing random news today. I've been asked to DJ before Fever Ray's set in the Dance Arena on the Sunday at Oxegen! MENTAL! Should be a great opportunity to drop some atmospheric dubstep and electronic music prior to the set. For all those wondering, the reason she is playing in the shed is because her elaborate stage setup and show requires complete darkness. Plus, it's got major lasers . To segue nicely into the comp, Hudson Mohawke is also playing the Dance Arena on the [...]

Just look at the flier. This show is gonna be hot. In New York, at the venue: Here's the show description from the Le Royale site: Have we got a packed house for you this Friday. We've got 10 DJs lined up, three performers, and three flyers for the same night! An event so big, it needed two nights to do it justice. What's the occasion you say? Well. Well, well, well.

Not sure quite when it dropped, but just been made aware of this free album from Error Broadcast Collective , an Experimental Hip-hop label who have sourced some great glitchy, minimal beats from every corner of the globe for this release and also plan a limited edition of vinyl 7''s to correspond. You can download the whole album in high quality MP3 or FLAC files here , which we highly recommend but there's also a few of our choice cuts below. (YSI) [...]

Image from Sexy People . I've been listening to loads of tunes from electronic beatmakers; the likes of Zomby, Samiyam, Flying Lotus, Joker, Take and other headswirling instrumental music. It's represented here. Pay special attention to 2000F's robotic g-funk anthem. It'll stick to the inside of your brain. Worth noting is that The Long Lost is Daedelus and his wife Laura Darlington and they've an album dropping soon. Also, frantic nostalgic buzz at the end 2000F - You Don't Know What Love is [...]

I don't think any of us at EastofLa have posted about FlyLo, so here it goes. Flying Lotus will be listed as one of my favorite active producers. Whether it be his beats, remixes, or whatever, I am absolutely obsessed with this dude. And just recently, FlyLo released his second issue of his "LA EP" series and I am here just making sure you folks get your hands on some good music. In this issue, FlyLo remixes the likes of Ras G, Nosaj Thing, Samiyam and Mike Slott, and I certainly recommend that you guys purchase this EP. [...]

If you don't know, Mike Slott . I knew the name sounded familiar, but I couldn't place it right away. Although, when I checked the MySpace and I saw Hud Mo & HOC, I remembered my brother, Salva , dropped them on me while on hiatus in San Fran. This is my kind of shit right here; forward-thinking, yet not too far out there to alienate the average listener. Big kicks, rhodsey flavor, and a little tinge of Detroit for that synthy edge. Love it. It's like the IDM scene of the late 90's finally got [...]
