“Loads of new dubs, especially of my other new project WORMSKULL, and 3 piece metal/breaks project with Deformer and Balasz Pandi (drummer of Merzbow and Otto von Schirach).”

This mix is fucking mental, exactly what I want on electronic explorations   …… summer is here .. bring on the pummelling beats and high speed breaks

————————————————-


Bong-Ra – Monster – adn131

Bong-Ra - Monster - adn131After a couple of years of silence, Bong-Ra returns to the foreground with a conceptual EP which shows an surprising new side of this project. Marrying his pummelling beats and high speed breaks with lush instrumentations and acoustic strings, Bong-Ra’s “Monster” sounds hard and human at the same time. The carefully design of an experienced and imaginative producer, this many-headed sonic Cerberus is an extravagant monster of outstanding force and depth. (Get this on 12″ / on CD / as mp3)

Even though Bong-Ra’s name and sound keep on popping at parties and festivals, it had been a couple of years since fresh material hadn’t come out of the “digital harem” studio”. Having focused on his other projects (mainly The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble), Jason Köhnen has only in 2010 had the time to return to his best known and longest-running project.

A lot has changed and a lot has been kept the same under Bong-Ra’s black hood: while we clearly deal with Bong-Ra’s towering presence of clustered beats and sharp breaks, more balance is to be found at the heart of this “Monster” than ever before.

This EP’s alchemy lies in the way Bong-Ra marries what he is known for (hard club-friendly rhythms) and what he has grown to produce more and more over the years (rich instrumentations and arrangements). In this sense, “Monster” meets its concept: it is not only a record about relationships, but one which brings together two elements usually usually very distinct. This gets particularly clear when “Yeti” and his pounding kicks confirm Bong-Ra’s position on his throne of the hard electronic music scene, only to be answered with “Kraken”’s human emotions and acoustic strings.

An agile but deadly hydra, “Monster” is an important release for Bong-Ra. A chapter is being closed, but the best elements of the past are molten together in new and exciting ways. In this sense, this musician confirms again that while his music might be lean and mean, it’s also intensely detailed and precise. This might be only a start (as an album is soon to follow), but this “Monster” is already soaring very high.

“Since its formation in 2004 Bristol based Multiverse has been one of the key creative studios for developing the city’s flourishing culture of forward thinking electronic music.

Based around their recording studio in the heart of the city the collective has consistently nurtured and supported electronic artists, both nationally and internationally, in the process creating a series of seminal releases that have helped shape today’s current musical landscape. Through their network of labels which includes Tectonic, Kapsize, Earwax, Caravan and Build, the work of the studio has focussed on exploring the uncharted spaces between genres, bridging together today’s cutting edge sonic possibilities with electronic music’s rich and diverse musical history.

This intention has been accomplished with a strictly artist led approach and a commitment to supporting the work of new and innovative musicians and composers. The fruits of this creative labour are reflected here in this celebratory compilation.

This double CD release offers a selection of highlights from the studios recent history. Leading the charge are both ‘Lion’ and ‘Pop Pop’ by Vex’d, records that formed the first bridge between classic British industrial music and dubstep, a fusion now championed by the likes of Surgeon, Distance and Milanese.

This appears alongside Joker and Ginz’s ‘Purple City’ the track that spearheaded the emergence of the Purple Wow phenomenon. Also present is Pinch’s ‘Qawwali’ one of the key tracks that broke dubstep to a global audience via Mary Anne Hobb’s Dubstep Warz compilation. Pinch’s influence within Multiverse extends across the compilation through his collaboration with P Dutty on ‘War Dub’, featured in the movie Children of Men, and ‘Get Up’ with Massive Attack vocalist Yolanda Quartey and Bristol legend Rob Smith (RSD). Equally the more avant-garde work of the studio is represented through Moving Ninja, an artist who pioneered the blurring of boundaries between dubstep and sound design, and emptyset, whose eponymous debut album fused the streamlined European minimalism of Mika Vainio and Raster Noton with Bristol’s unique bass heavy production style.

This ground breaking selection of tracks sit alongside contributions by techno/dubstep pioneer 2562, half-step progenitor Loefah, Skream and Caravan label boss October. In the process ‘Dark Matter’ creates a landmark archive of the work of one of the world’s most innovative creative networks of electronic producers.

At the centre of this community is Bristol’s thriving music scene in which Multiverse forms a key social hub, and the studio has operated with a family ethos that has placed creativity and artistic co-operation at the heart of their activity. Their collective approach places dialogue and collaboration as a vital and indispensable element within the musical process, an ethos that is entrenched within the city’s creative history, and their focus as ever remains in working with a diverse range of artists to craft a unique an inimitable sound that speaks to a global audience. As a result Dark Matter emerges both as a celebration of all that has been achieved and forms a decisive manifesto for an unwritten future.

An elemental space where electronic music collides with new digital processes and avant-garde composition, a place where sound becomes the raw sculptural mass of the sonic languages of tomorrow.”

I’ve done no mixes at all to date, the only one being b2b with synkro on the ‘Red Bull’ music academy website but that was a d’n’b mix, so this is my 1st published mix I have made to date.

Indigo is an artist that has an integrity and deepness to his work that guarantees him a long and prosperous career in music. Championed by the likes of D-Bridge, Dj Flight, Illum Sphere, Headhunter & James Blake. With consistent airplay on Rinse FM, Radio 1 & Electronic Explorations his original, uplifting and intriguing productions have also caught the ears of German IDM Producers – Modeselektor, who are reputed as taste-makers of the highest order, and featured ‘Fading’ as part of their latest MAH Mix. He has acquired full support from Berlin based DJ Pete (Hardwax/Basic Channel) and having several tracks featured in his Wax Treatment Sessions Podcasts.

Indigo’s own label Mindset is now on its seventh release, and is at the vanguard of the future dub-tech, sound. With several debuts from the likes of Narcossist/Kowton, XxXy , Hatti Vatti, HxDb, and Andro+Dimit. As well as a foray into different aspects of Synkro & 16-Bit’s prolific sounds. It is a label often name-checked in the scene as one of the most forward thinking and influential, and Indigo is forever on the search for new and original talent.

Indigo’s  sets continue to excel, uncompromising in his selection and razor-sharp in the mix. Varied, Techy, Deep and Soulful and crescendoing into weighted Brilliance, and always with a backbone of his own impeccable productions.

Indigo has smashed many of the major clubs across Europe and the UK. Including The Warehouse Project, FAC 251, Fabric & The End and touching down in The Netherlands, Estonia & Poland and many more dates over the coming year including Outlook Festival out in Croatia. With several projects bubbling under, a forthcoming release on Exit and a live outfit emerging, his unique sound is set to expand into the wider consciousness.

Alex Cowles, AKA DFRNT is a producer, DJ and designer from Edinburgh,
Scotland.

He currently heads up the Echodub label and collective,
(www.echodub.co.uk) writes the Sitting Ovation blog
(www.sittingovation.com) and is working on a new publication called
Modus (www.modusmag.co.uk)

DFRNT released his debut album “Metafiction” on On The Edge records last
year to a host of great reviews, and alongside his own production the
album featured remix work from Scuba, Quantec, Ital Tek, DJ Madd and
Synkro. A set of 4 vinyl releases were released to co-incide with the
launch and featured those mixes, plus an additional remix from Indigo.

Since his album, DFRNT has been working on lots of new material. He was
featured as a guest DJ on the Mary Anne Hobbs show in late 2009, and
since has seen a further 12″ release on On The Edge. He has a few
forthcoming releases on labels such as Futurism, Migration and his own
Echodub imprint.

DFRNT is just back from a 3-month trip to the USA, where he played all
over the North East. He’s currently working on putting together a
follow-up album to Metafiction, as well as a number of remixes and
collabs with various people.

Boomkat product review for:

dfrnt – Metafiction

Deeper dubstep album from Scotland’s DFRNT. After a succession of mp3 only releases on his own Echodub imprint he’s compiled an album of sparse ambient-textured dubstep influenced by the likes of 2562, Scuba, Breakage or Indigo. The first disc comprises entirely new material while a second disc rounds up remixes from Dub House dude Quantec, Synkro, Ital Tek and Scuba. Very nice indeed.

Ad Noiseam:

Ad Noiseam has been swimming against the flow since its inception in 2001. Mixing genres and formats, this label has made every possible atempt to blur its paths and not become a niche label. Noise, electronica, jazz, breakcore, dubstep, metal: over close to 130 releases (all of them on physical formats), Ad Noiseam has touched almost every possible genre of underground music, and intends at keeping it this way. Modern and indie in its relation to artists, shops and promotion, it’s in a way an old-school record label, which puts the quality of the music first, and not its genre or hype.


About the mix:

Respectful of the high quality of the podcasts on Electronic Explorations, I wanted to do something special with this set. It’s easy for a label manager to record an hour long-advertisement for his roster, or to unleash dubplate after dubplate. After all, my job is to listen, select and work with tracks which haven’t been released yet. My intention here was different: on the one hand, I wanted to showcase what Ad Noiseam is about, but I also wanted to show that my words are not vain when I say that I like very varied genres of music. This is why there’s some Ethiopian jazz next to some doom metal here, and why some hot and fresh new track out of London might be mixed together with an old Diamanda Galas classic. It’s my opinion that if the tracks are good, they can be mixed and presented together easily. Moreover, this is not a club DJ set: I could start very slowly and take much time to bring the hardest material. I hope the listeners of Electronic Explorations will enjoy this set, and that it will stay as a (hopefully successful) experiment in genres mixing. This is what Ad Noiseam is about. And of course, thanks to Rob for the opportunity and his hard work.

110 – Best Of 2009

At the beginning of 2010 I was asked by various Music blogs to compile my favourite tracks from 2009

I decided to make a mix from these 70+ tracks with the help of 2 friends, Tommy ‘Akira Kiteshi‘ and Matt ‘Mad EP

Fast forward a couple months and here we are !!!

Unfortunately due to timing constraints beyond Akira Kiteshi’s control, Tommy was only able to piece together the first 20 minutes of the mix, using 18 of the tracks available to him, however, you’ll agree its a bit special.

Matt ‘Mad EP’ diverts away from the AK approach, staying close to his hip hop roots and the love of the cross-fader…. how the hell did he mix up 70 odd tunes into the space of 46 minutes !!

So ….. I gave these 2 producers the following tunes .. the rest is up to them !! .. oh and yeah, I know I missed out some awesome tunes from 2009, but its bloody hard to remember all the good music from 2009

what’s a press release like this one supposed to be about? it’s supposed to sum up an artist’s  journey, point out their career landmarks. so in the case of this band, you’d have to talk about  their formation in berlin in 2002. something that wasn’t just about forming a band, but also about balancing different cultural backgrounds – the beats being arranged by robot koch in berlin, the vocals coming from formerly london-based sasha perera and the basslines being laid down  by oren gerlitz, who lived in tel aviv. you’d also have to talk about the early support from john peel, and their album releases “pure breed mongrel” (2005) and “blitz ‘n’ ass” (2007). plus their countless 12” releases on labels such as citizen recordings, crosstown rebels or playhouse. not to forget their buzzing and unpredictable live shows which brought them to four continents in 2008 and covered everything from renowned festivals like transmediale to raves in transylvania. then you’d have to talk about the numerous collaborations with folks like modeselektor, asian dub foundation, anti pop consortium, buraka som sistema and many more. and you’d definitely have to talk about them being at the forefront of producing eclectic sounds and merging genres like grime, punk rock, hip-hop and various blends of electronica to create a unique definition of pop music. a pioneering role they embraced with the same spirit that brought like-minded projects like diplo or switch productions, figures like m.i.a. or terry lynn or subgenres like baile funk, 2 step or booty bass into the public eye.

all of this had to be featured here, and well, it is now. but! a band that records an album like “barefoot wanderer” could hardly be interested in a text full of self references. it might even be quite useful to simply forget most things known about jahcoozi. “barefoot wanderer” most definitely marks a caesura. as the title already suggests, it’s the implementation of a new-found purism. it’s not a loud, bright, stage-ready record. recording something like that would’ve been far too easy. of course they continue to be restless, they still filter their distinct dynamic from their different tastes in music and they are still crossing borders. with the support of the goethe institute they went to kenya to record the track “msoto millions” along with mcs from ukoo flani, a kenyan dancehall/reggae crew in nairobi. staying true to their core musical approach, they gathered friends from all around the globe, but this time took it further than ever. for example, there’s a track with percussionist guillermo brown from new york, they feature belgian singer barbara panther on another, and (drum roll!) clay pot percussionist oori shalev from israel, who of course played his part in making this track a quite unconventional affair. in general, they bring home sound souvenirs from every one of their journeys, but they wonít tour the world with hypebeast-approved trainers on their feet – they wander barefoot. not only does “barefoot” happen to be the most fitting metaphor for this album, it is also a kind of branding for the mentality that jahcoozi and their brothers in spirit, stereotyp & alhaca from vienna, have come up with. a mentality that appeals to everyone who feels comfortable in the most varied worlds of bpm counts and bass variations. itís something like an attempt to find a genre name for the act of refusing genres.

it’s not that this new album revisits all of the band’s typical reference points. rather it examines all their unexplored niches in an incomparably subtle way. chances are the band has never stretched itself so far, and it has ended up forming a unique microcosm with its own rules and language. “barefoot wanderer” is without a doubt the most self-contained and cohesive work they have done so far. its sex appeal not only speaks through sasha’s booty-shake, it virtually shines through a mysteriously hazy twilight. unlike anything else, this album refines dubstep, it recalls the early dancehall spirit, it even reawakens the expressive force and agitation of digital hardcore, though without letting the formal execution become too explicit. in fact, it’s quite the opposite. it’s a documentation of subtlety. yet in every proclamation – some of which even reach into ambient aesthetics – pulsates the most lucid form of expression and the niftiest approach to pop the band has undertaken so far. and even the most explicit moments such as “power down blackout”, fuelled by long-time partner in crime m. sayyid of anti pop consortium, are laid down with a nonchalance that will get a crowd going in the blink of an eye.

on the whole, “barefoot wanderer” is the album nobody expected, but perhaps that is the only possible outcome for a band that holds unpredictability as its one constant principle.

Boomkat product review for:

jahcoozi – Barefoot Wanderer

Impressive album from Berlin’s Jahcoozi outfit, forging a blend of fluoro-ragga, electro and mongrel pop. While not as well known as many of their Berlin counterparts, Jahcoozi are one of those underground acts whose respect from others critically outweighs any commercial success. That may be set to change with ‘Barefoot Wanderer’ their most coherent and slickly developed album to date. From the packaging, glossy black jewel box and monochrome slipcasing, to the techy polished of their tracks, it’s like they’ve just been given a makeover by Massive Attack’s management. ‘Barefoot Dub’ mixes moody dancehall styled vox from Sascha Perrera (sounding so much like Soom-T) to techno-stepping dub scapes and APC’s M. Sayyid adds his cunning vox to a dynamically diffused dancehall riddim on ‘Powerdown Blackout’. Thirsty Ear’s Guillermo Brown adds reverbed vox to the dread-tech blues of ‘Speckles Shine’ and special mention must go to Deadbeat’s mix of ‘Watching You’ which could almost be a remix of Instra:mental/DBridge’s track of the same name, inna darkside Berlin dub style. Fans of Massive Attack, Portishead, Modeselektor or Team Shadetek should get on this.

Pitchfork article

One of the fun things about dance music in 2010 is that genre barriers seem increasingly obsolete– the idea of limiting oneself to a particular style or country is almost laughable at this point. Jahcoozi, a collaboration between German producers Robot Koch and Oren Gerlitz and Sri Lankan vocalist Sasha Perera, take this global approach. In their tracks, dancehall riddims, glitch-hop, and experimental techno rub up against each other like long-lost pals.

Jahcoozi’s first two records, Pure Breed Mongrel and the awesomely titled Blitz ‘n’ Ass, took an aggressive line to the dancefloor. Rapid-fire beats and grime mixed with Perera’s in-your-face political emceeing for a visceral, gritty sound. It was danceable, but ultimately disruptive music. But with Barefoot Wanderer, their first release for Berlin’s BPitch Control, Jahcoozi appear a good deal more subdued with a style that leans heavily on dub– both the classic Jamaican variety and its modern-day digital equivalent, dubstep.

Mostly the shift works. There’s a variety of song types and distinctive collaborators who bring tempo swings, but the prevailing mood is sort of a downtempo saunter, made even more spacious by Perera’s milky vocals. (Massive Attack’s Mezzanine is a good reference point in this sense.) Tracks like “Barefoot Dub” and “Lost in the Bass” set echo-chamber reverb alongside glitch-y techno, creating an interesting tension between traditional King Tubby-style dub and more progressive current electronic sounds. Most of these songs are good, but occasionally there’s a dip in the dynamism of the production– “Zoom in Fantasize” and “Barricaded” just sort of drift by without making much of an impact.

Dub and techno are the album’s core elements, but there are plenty of other styles stirred in. Some of Barefoot Wanderer’s best material comes when the group invites guest vocalists to mix it up with Perera. On “Powerdown Blackout”, she trades raps with Anti-Pop Consortium’s M. Sayyid over a futuristic, Neptunes-ian hip-hop track. Kenyan dancehall toasters Ukoo Flani guest on “Msoto Millions”, and percussionist and singer Guillermo E. Brown duets with Perera on the skittering “Speckles Shine”. The album’s much better off for these collaborations. Without them, it could get lost in its own fog and become just an interesting weed soundtrack, but instead they add more international intrigue to Jahcoozi’s already inclusive formula.

Mai Harper mix – Decks and a mixer

‘Mai Harper is a Label Manager and DJ extraordinaire.  Obsessed with dub sounds, techno infused beats and electro terror.  Mai represents the One4ho records by DJing around Europe, diversifying all electronic beats from IDM, Techno, Dubstep, Grime and Movie Soundtracks.  She recently played at Bloc 2010, for a big One4ho label launch.  She plays with pure acetate sound, a dying breed amongst the new digital era, this girl won’t be letting go of her vinyl in a hurry’.
Ghettozoid mix -   Recorded the mix in Ableton using an Akai APC 40, put the whole thing together in Logic.
Ghettozoid is not only a creative force in her own right, she is also the brainchild, the mindbirth, and the biosludge of Bristol, UK’s Sophie Ruston. Recently the wind of fate have blown a mighty blow that sent her sails to the sultry shores of Germany’s crown jewel, Berlin, where she currently is entrenched in a Euro-dream: Running her One4Ho imprint with label partner Mai Harper and producing tracks and collaborating with engineers such as Wizard and ginger dream boat, Ginz.

But lets look back to 2009. Yes lets glance back at the past before we try in vain to keep up with her vicious and violent thrusts into a future brighter than the brightest platinum.
-Gigs? Festivals like Glastonbury, Glade and Shambala and some of the UK’s hottest club events like Pinch’s Subloaded, and at Berlin’s infamous Bar 25 for Clark’s (Warp) album launch party.
-Radio? Radio Plays on the UKs Number 1 Radio Station, Radio 1, courtesy of Radio 1’s Number 1 Radio Personality Mary Anne Hobbs as well as a few quirky little shows hither and thither from across them seas.
-Moments of transcendent Bliss? Shakin’ her Purty lil’ ass on stage with Egyptian lover at Bloc Festival.

Now the dawning of the Ghettozoid future: Early 2010 will see a tour of America as Bubbz’s tour DJ, hitting up SXSW, NYC and MWMC & the launch of her One4Ho imprint, with the release of her own Power-Riddim “Seeking” feat the vocal magic of Yolanda with remixes from Blue Daisy and Teknoist. Farther on into positive chronology we can begin to glimpse the hourglass outline of collaborations and Platinum Hits from an all star cast of Platinum hit-making stars. (Did we mention the word Platinum enough yet?)

Ghettozoid puts the Robo back into Robotronic Boogaloo and puts the Ghetto back into Postindustrial-Ghettowarfare. In her spare time she is attempting to modify an 808 in order to make it sexually compatible with her Zoid and hopes to vocode the result.

ghettozoid / blue daisy – Seeking (Blue Daisy Mix)

Sci-fi infected dubstep from Berlin’s Ghettozoid featuring Yolanda backed with a Blue Daisy remix. We’d head straight for the Blue Daisy remix, maintaining his consistent good-form with another psych-submerged swirl of clipped garage rhythms, ethereal bass and haunted synths sounding like Burial’s undead triphead cousin. Meanwhile the original puts Yolanda’s belting vocal to good use, sounding not dissimilar to Pinch’s ‘Get Up’ anthem.
