Decibel Festival founder, president, and curator Sean Horton stopped by The Morning Show to reveal the first half of the 2012 lineup first to KEXP listeners.

photo by Dave Lichterman If you caught the amazing new Yppah record Eighty One when it came out at the end of March here in the United States, you may not recognize those songs here. When Yppah stopped by the studio, they were aided by the help of a sampler or two, but for the most part, Yppah's set was stripped down, organic, and completely incredible. Eighty One is all about mixing simple with complex, and in this form, Yppah can show off and wow anyone listening. Yppah [...]
Zoon Van Snook is the alias of Bristol, UK’s Weirdsmith Alec Snook. Following keyboard and sampling duty for numerous experimental-indie bands in the south west of England (which included nationwide touring, festivals and support for such acts as: I Am Kloot, Skunk Anansie and BBC Radio 1’s Zane Lowe), the debut Zoon Van Snook 12” EP was released on the acclaimed Brighton label Cookshop at the end of 2008. This garnered radio support from BBC’s Rob Da Bank + Tom Robinson and lead to his debut hour mix for Ninja Tune’s inimitable Solid Steel. Since then, his [...]

Yppah - Eighty One By Jim Merrett The soundtrack to your life is probably a playlist of songs that have wormed their way into your subconscious through a process involving repetition, zeitgeist, emotional response, repetition, ubiquity and/or repetition. In this light, the output of – much like the name of – Ninja Tune’s Yppah appears to have been reverse engineered. Most notably on his last joyful effort They Know What Ghost Know , Californian Joe Corrales Jr turned out ditties such as 'Bobbie Joe Wilson' that could’ve [...]
21 songs of Le Miel du Mois, what the f%*k is a Monday blues? Steph is back with another installment of LMDM and it's another wonderfully eclectic blend of everything you didn't even know you loved. Stephs all-embracing approach to music is one of the reasons why LMDM has been and continue to be one of the most interesting mix tapes on any side of the globe. I don't know about you but I get bored quick fast listening to the same music or style over and over. Musical monogamy is not a concept I can get behind. [...]

Yppah - Blue Schwinn Yppah - Film Burn (ft. Anomie Belle) Oh man. Listening to the shimmery summertime soundtrack that is the new Eighty One long-player is getting me all giddy and hopped-up on a weird surge of serotonin from all these feel-good electronic beats/glitches and fantastic ethereal melodies (plus dreamy guitar and synth combos, spaced-out samples/scratches, and gorgeous guest vocals strewn about), and I'm fairly sure that fans of other like-minded atmospherically adept musicians/producers [...]
Eerder dit jaar hebben we het al aangekondigd en vandaag is het dan zover. Het nieuwe album van Yppah (a.k.a. Joe Corrales Jr.) is gereleased op het label Ninja Tune . Eighty One, het 11 tracks tellende album staat vol met heerlijke breakbeat briljantjes.. De vocale ondersteuning op dit album komt van Anomie Belle . De plaat is geïnspireerd door de zee en het strand van Long Beach Califonrnia en dat is duidelijk terug te horen. De plaat bevat veel strijkers en warme arrangementen (Film Burn, Never Mess With Sunday) maar schuwt ook het wat [...]
![YPPAH – R. Mullen [Ninja Tune]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4152032_lg.jpg)
Taken from Yppah’s newly received album entitled “Eighty One,” this title stems from the year in which Joe Corrales Jr. (aka Yppah) was born. Residing in Long Beach, California after originally coming from Houston,Texas; Yppah places his journey on a quest where he is trying to recreate certain feelings & melodies through music; thus imparting a breakbeat and downtempo affliction through ‘R.Mullen.’ Early nineties guitar cells are littered all over this number, with the editing of the loops hurling its way back to the golden era of Norman Cook, Moby (Play) and Garbage. [...]
