There's nothing that whets a crate-digger's appetite more than the notion of ultra-underground rarities that were recorded decades ago on an artist's own lo-fi home-studio set up. When you step into the world of electronic-based music, there's been no shortage of compilations in recent times featuring esoteric, lo-fi gems from the rock and pop realm, [...]

More tracks to give a listen to. Rare Grooves - Cause For Concern Blue King Brown - Women's Revolution Bing and Ruth - Rails
Rare Grooves have emerged from the ashes of The Widow Babies and are a duo consisting of Tabor Allen on drums and Danny Miller on guitar. They got in touch with their self-titled debut 73, which came out recently and we've been thoroughly enjoying it. The band name made us (wrongly) think we were going to hear a throwback to a northern Soul band, but the truth of the matter is that it is much harder to describe than that. The best we can do is a hybrid of anthemic chanting, finger-picked twang, [...]

So you've got the object of your desire back to the manor and its blatantly gonna be on. You fix a couple of drinks, dim the lights but then you have a dilemma. What music do you put on? Sorry but gone are the days when you could just press play on the R Kelly cassette and let the wiley crackhead paedophile provide the soundtrack to your bumpin' and grindin', so what's the solution? Well there's no doubting that Hudson Mohawke is one of the slow-glitch kings and he [...]
