Rimar released a brand new album for free with a newly embellished sound to share. A lot less funkier then his last, Rimar has picked up some influences, tones , and textures from his current place of residency in Brooklyn. Its a very transparent and abstract interpretation from Rimar's previous works and almost has no reason or rhyme of focus. This unfocused state leaves Rimar with this perplexing yet soulful sound that resonates for miles. Listen and download it below from his bandcamp ... Rimar - CLOSER (click to download) [...]
Atlanta-born beat innovator Time Wharp releases his first EP on the Astro Nautico label with a gorgeously abstract 7 track piece entitled, BLK . Following up with his previous EP, GRN , he lurks down a different path from his riding down-tempo beat based exhibition. This time round he's back with a heavier bass infused juke 2-step configuration that speaks out fairly nicely in todays current trend of electronic sounds. Featuring a tune with the beloved Divine Interface and remixes from RAJA , [...]
![Babe Rainbow - 'Greed (feat. Yung Clova)' [Nowa Huta Remix]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3998156_lg.jpg)
UK down-tempo fiend, Nowa Huta gives rework to Babe Rainbow's up beat banger, 'Greed', off the newly released Greed Remix EP , which is out now on Mishka NYC's bandcamp . Nowa Huta transforms the tune into an ethereal landscape speaking instrumental that subdues its fine tuned "OO's and AH's" onto a cascading stream that flows and dips into an echoing cove of reverberation. Its somewhat inspiring and healing at the same time. Lovely remix. The EP also features a remix by Grimes' alien brother, d'Eon , [...]
OK, so the fact that we officially closed this blog in 2010 serves as some excuse for not dropping by here to give an update on things sooner but this post is a little overdue so as I'm here now, I'll cover off a couple of bits at once. As mentioned previously, my main musical focus after quitting blogging was always intended to be making music of my own and last year finally saw the official release of some my music - hoorah! My debut EP , Beyond The Green Wall, [...]
UK 17 year old, sound experimentalist, Hugh Major , hits the world wide web with his first original composition, 'Over'. The track stretches its drowning deep vibe feelings into a pool of spatial ping-ponging echoes that revert back and forth on this gripping terrain of emoting sounds. Reverb glory and a deep embedded story. Hugh Major you are MAJOR. Killer tune. Keep up to date with his soundcloud for future sounds like these... Hugh Major - Over
Rising blog collective from the UK, Stray Landings , dropped a beautiful little gift in my inbox the other day. Their debut compilation, Residual Rifts , includes contributions from 8 mysteriously intriguing acts; one of which I've previously posted about, Stavrogin . The compilation explores rift speaking spatial garage instrumentations and filing head-bopping rhythms. It's a new year and a new era for music. So wonderful to see compilations that encompass this sound that is ever so emerging and able to make a successful impact on the growing community. This one does exactly [...]
Hailing from Providence, RI, James Hinton aka The Range unleashes his album entitled, The Big Dip , on the wonderful Astro Nautico label. The 8 track release submerges its ways under the atmospheric bass trends with its playfully intricate rhythms, clicks, chimes, and heavy foundation of resonance. Simply catchy and capturing with chopped up r n b vocals layered upon a wave of bass that weaves the listener in and out of its grooving sensation. The whole release endorses a very precise and clinical bopping feel that sets free in it's range curing [...]

Pipedown returns this friday night harnessing the power of Scratcha DVA ( Hyperdub ), Spatial ( Infrasonics ), Logos ( Keysound ), Walton ( Hyperdub ) b2b Gugu ( DVA Music ) and of course the Pipedown family regulars for one night of epic sonic proportions. As usual they are offering some audio delights to prepare you for this weekend, this time courtesy of Logos who have prepared a short, yet potent mix of unreleased dubs. Those of you in the area, be sure not [...]
CHLLNGR Haven // CHLLNGR's Haven keeps its head down, its hood up. Any album this unassuming is bound to be overlooked. Like Zomby's experimental Dedication , CHLLNGR draws from a variety of sources (dub, bass music, R&B) to create an idiosyncratic style that skirts any neat genre designation. Suffice it to say that Haven is dark and precise and frequently gorgeous, combining the darkest elements of dub with the stability of familiar R&B pop. These combination allows CHLLNGR to graft a bunch of bold ideas onto a structure that will almost certainly support it. Think of this [...]
Photo by David Maisel [ Schmorgasbord ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) The first release from Schmorgasbord, the new Bristol-based label focusing around collaborations, had city icons Appleblim & October collaborate on two tracks. The second nails the concept even better, taking two solo tracks from two very different producers and having them remix each other. The guests of honor the second time around are abstract house/garage mad professor Spatial and Austrian house magnate S-Max. There's a clear [...]
[ Infrasonics ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) Unlike most artist albums, a collection of a single artist's previously released works provides an overview of their growth and stylistic evolution. Albums often lack information as to when their contents were written and recorded - what came first, what was last, which song had been kicking around for a couple years. With most collections that information is often more obvious, from the sequencing of the record to the more thorough liner notes. Infra001-4 , Spatial's collection of four EPs [...]
Another installment in my irregular updates and it's good news on the Nanorhythm front again. This time, my alter ego has taken to the decks and knocked out a mix / podcast for his new home, Broken20. Clocking in at around 70 minutes, Bunker Funk dishes up a helping of stripped down warehouse-friendly techno, featuring cuts from some of my favourite dancefloor-focused producers and a cheeky little number, hot from my own basement studio. Head on over to Broken 20 to check it out for yourself. [...]

Pavel Dovgal , producteur né à Vladivostok en Russie en 1986. Il déménage très jeune en Ukraine et ses études en musicologie l'entrainent à Kharkov où la musique assez atypique qu'il pratique remporte beaucoup de succès. Totalement inconnu en Europe de l'est, il débarque avec un premier album qui sort chez Project Mooncircle . Pavel brûle les étapes, pas de single, pas d'EP, absolument rien pour précéder et faire un peu de buzz pour la sortie de son premier album. Il doit être vraiment sûr de lui pour se jeter dans le grand bain sans se mettre [...]
So Jamie Grind , recently signed to Infrasonics alongside such names as Spatial , xxxy , Hot City , and Ike Release , recently recorded an absolutely head-spinning mix for one of my favorite blogs, Sonic Router . Its packed with all kinds of future music across a number of genres, but underneath it all is a tendency towards broken beats, odd syncopations, as well as big bass and chopped, pitched-up, wonked-out vocal cuts. It's really challenging, provocative stuff that doesn't sacrifice the GROOVE that so many people overlook in trying to [...]
[ Highpoint Lowlife ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) Erik XVI's Stern-Gerlachs Versioner , released in January on Highpoint Lowlife, compiles seven remixes of tracks from last year's Stern-Gerlachs Försök EP . The collection is a veritable stylistic melting pot; the dystopian aura of the originals pervades but is filtered through everything from Dissident-style arpeggiator disco to dark garage. This sort of variety is a potential weakness: in pre-download days you might end up paying full price for a single quality track in a sea of [...]
I've heard the future. It's not even a whole track, but to these ears the second half of s p a t i a l 's 90729 (on his own Infrasonics ) is the year's most forward-looking, next-level, game-changing [insert additional cliches of choice] dance record. [...]
[ Infrasonics ] ( buy vinyl ) We humans typically deal with space in terms of the three dimensions most readily apparent to our senses- length, width, and height. If theoretical physicists like Brian Greene and Lisa Randal - whose respective bestsellers The Elegant Universe and Warped Passages helped usher the wacky nomenclature of superstring theory into the late night stoner blather of an entire generation - are to be believed, the universe might actually require something like eleven to function properly. You can't really blame the sizable [...]
