DJ Nobu & NHK yx Koyxen.
A bit Whitey Mice, over a wicked mid-nineties Steely & Clevie.
Total murder.
Bernard Brown, Carlton Gregory, and Noel ‘Bunny’ Brown (from the Chosen Few), originally on the April imprint out of NYC in 1978.
Steppers paranoia par excellence.
A symphonic layering of phone-taps by Scanner and TT, aka DJ Sprinkles.
Plus some deep, glitchy Ambient by the label-boss, with piano and harpsichord.
Aka Ricardo Villalobos & Argenis Brito.
An ‘electro-acoustic’ approach to UK Garage, allternately banging and evasive, teeming with detail.
Ljudverket celebrates its tenth release with this characteristically skilled, open-air blend of field recordings and organic, dubwise techno in the tradition of Basic Channel, filled with keen senses of its own particular natural terrains and atmospheres.
‘The thunder and rain of Bas Emfas passes to blue skies above shimmering water, in Luminös Klang. The cerebral jam Konflux Sekvens gives way to the deep emotions of Sonisk Morgonsyn, to close the journey.’
Hyvää syntymäpäivää.
None other than Mick Harris from Napalm Death, and his deadly Midlands iteration of Detroit techno. Transatlantic motor-funk from the mid-nineties, when Brummie club-night the House Of God was alive and kicking. Still stinging.
Kassem Mosse worries.
‘Politics have failed.’
Stone-classic Bullwackies (as excursioned by Rhythm & Sound for Burial Mix), sensationally throwing in two unreleased dubs, newly extracted from the master reels. Both are equally unmissable but quite different, with contrasting effects: the second dub adds ninety seconds, including whip-dem spring reverb. Drawn from the Selective Showcase LP, the vocal mix is more open and dubwise than the Sing & Shout LP offering, with less keyboards.
Asked whether it should be mash or march, after some pondering Bullwackies replied: ‘That’s a good question.’
A chacteristically up-for-it and punchy next cut of the Yabby You, with a concussive dub; first out in the mid-eighties.
