SATURDAY JUNE 6 MUX MOOL (from Brooklyn NY), MILITARY SPECIAL , Phantom Tails , Ghostband , Tecon 21+ | 9pm | $5
Speed's The Name, Economy Team, Me & My Arrow, Phantom Tails, Mux Mool and Old James recently announced that they would be forming a partnership (of sorts), falling under the name of 8Hz.
I'm heading to the Gorge for the Sasquatch Music Festival, and won't be back to the interwebs until Wednesday at the earliest. Given that I won't be posting until late next week, here's an extry big Friday grab bag to...

Bea Arthur is not a meme, OK. I want to take a serious moment to appreciate all that Dorothy and The Golden Girls have given us, while also examining what role, if any, these Miami post-panthers have had on some of the music you appreciate today. Sure, she taught us crucial pre-Degrassi lessons about teen pregnancy, infidelity, and accepting cross-dressing siblings. But what does Bea have to do with beats? We asked a few of our favorite musicians that very question. How has Bea Arthur and/or the GGs in general influenced your musical career? Thomas [...]

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. Only [...]

And thats the lot, I was pretty busy at work on thursday, as you can see! Mux Mool - 2muxLUV Magik Johnson - Stick Em Polly Scattergood - Please dont Touch ( The Golden Filter Remix) Share/Save

Mux Mool just hooked up another dope track through XLR8R . This is off his new Just Saying is All EP. Mux Mool - MERLINFEST!

So Mux Mool is this cat from Brooklyn. And he dropped a new EP on iTunes not that long ago and it has some pretty cool shit on it. But the most stand out track for me - being that I love all things disco - is the track 2muxLuv. It's a fantastic crop-shop chop up of a disco house anthem. It's tasty - and I've played it out and it sounds great on the playa. So enjoy this little jem and check out the Mux. [...]

While he still owns industrial glitch clap, Mux Mool's new Just Saying is All EP features faster, stronger Daft/Dilla dance biscuits and autonomously powered robo-carnivals. As one guy says on the iTunes review section, "Mux Mool is a better mix of of 80s trance and millenial tools than most. More hip hop than these other softee electro nerds." Agreed - and the homemade cover art is classic Bmore gutter. Mux Mool - 2muxLUV (from Just Saying is All [...]

Saage tuttavaks - see kena poiss on Mux Mool . Elab Brooklynis ja teeb muusikat. Ei lämise, hakkame kuulama. Mux Mool - Nausican Mux Mool - Death 9000 Ei saa ka välistada, et sa juba tead ja mäletad teda Ghostly Swimilt . Siis on ju eriti hästi.
Moodgadget is an electronic music label that was founded in Ann Arbor, MI in 2004. They are currently based out of Brooklyn and LA and have an affiliation with Ghostly International. I have been on their mailing list for a while, and wrote about their first release a few years back. They offer a broad selection of styles on their roster, and I like that variety. Today's post highlights it with

"Nausican" really exemplifies the strength of sparsity in music - Mux Mool's instrumental hip hop centers around four or five impeccably tweaked textures, as opposed to, say, twelve muddled ones fighting for space. A gypsy-esque vocal trill loops to becomes the exotic backdrop behind a classic, authoritative drum beat, while discretely detuned keys fluctuate in the empty space. Like the cleanest of DJ Shadow tracks, there isn't anything fancy here - just a thoroughly entrancing beat that rides the strength of superhuman attention to detail. Score another victory for the ever-invigorating Moodgadget label, [...]

Former Minneapolis artist/producer Mux Mool made the move to Brooklyn last fall and is prepping the follow-up to his Drum ep which had the highly successful track "Night Court" and appeared on the Ghostly-Adult Swim compilation Ghostly Swim . Mux Mool's brand new Just Saying is All drops on March 17th, and "Nausican" is the first look. Mux Mool - "Nausican" -mp3

This track was made exclusive for XLR8R and can be found on the site as of today! Mux Mool is always nice! Mux Mool - End Guy (Radio Edit) (320kbps 10.6MB)

Last year Butter Team turned us onto the Ghostly Swim comp (which you can read more about here ). One of my favorite artists on that comp was NYC's Mux Mool with his track "Night Court". Thanks to Amie Street I was able to recently pick up his Drum EP and I must say I'm digging it heavily. Apparently Mr. Mool spent 2007 working on a beat a day and the Drum EP is the product of all that work. With beats that drum up flavors of [...]

Vous ai-je parlé de Mux Mool? Non? Alors c'est l'occasion de le faire. Découvert au mois de septembre ici (vous pouvez légalement et gratuitement télécharger la compil' en entier). Pas d'album à son actif mais une tripotée (c'est comme ça qu'on dit) de bons morceaux. Mux Mool - Night Court Mux Mool - Drums with Audible Python Big Quaters & Mux Mool - Ladies Know (façon!)

Recent Minneapolis resident Mux Mool makes beats, moves to Brooklyn, remixes Radiohead's "Reckoner" and gives it a minimalist broken beat flare,fans of J Dilla and Flying Lotus will rejoice. Radiohead- Reckoner-(Mux Mool Remix)" -mp3
I love Radiohead and I also love the way they seem to be able to command some pretty decent remixes too. This one in particular is another remix of the ever-popular "Reckoner" track from "In Rainbows". The origin possibly has something to do with the remix competition Radio head have been running of this track. I could infact spend quite a while checking all the entries on the site, and more than likely will. Go take a peep for yourself. This Mux Mool remix easily ranks up their with the Flying Lotus and Diplo ones. Its equally as crazy as the Diplo [...]

Ghostly International's Michna (aka Egg Foo Young) previously crafted unchained melodies for Bonde do Role, Diplo and others - but this weekend's all about breaking in his debut LP Magic Monday , which frankly is just tight all over the place. Michna - Swiss Glide (from Magic Monday ) Bet Lupe wants to spit over that. Bmore's More of Less crew hosts Michna at the Hexagon this Friday. Opening/closing will be a deep [...]

At 16 I hit a crisis—I walked away from the classical training I began 10 years earlier. I didn't give it up entirely, but I decided I wasn't going to pursue becoming a classical cellist as a career. Very quickly the musical void left by the absences of practicing multiple hours a day was soon filled by electronic music. I was introduced to avant-garde electronic music at an early age; so making sounds on the computer didn't seem odd while all my friends were out starting punk bands. I eventually fell into [...]
