Autumn 2009 sees Brixton’s foremost melodic electronic artist Point B releasing a full length artist album on Combat.

Fans of his electronic peers such as Kelpe, Boards of Canada, Burial, Autechre and Tipper will find this potent brew infused with reflection and bittersweet calm. Maintaining his characteristic playful sense of melody and effortlessly flitting between genres, Suicide Beauty Spot is a brooding, contemplative and dark work of beauty and is Point B’s first full-length album on Combat Recordings.

Themed around a calm, beautiful, natural contemplative place where people go to deliberately end their lives, the vibe is profoundly deep, and wanders across dubstep, 2 step garage, bleepy electronics and hip hop tempos. The sound of circuitry soaked in warm human emotion, at times it veers almost into Boards of Canada / Burial territory, but always stays within the crisp, bleepy realms of his own sound.

Whilst embracing the urban rhythms (dubstep, hip-hop, 2 step) so familiar on his 12” vinyl releases, this long player embraces some lovely live instrumentation in which the likes of his santoor, Irish harp, dulcimer and marimba animate the bass-heavy soundscapes.

YELLOW MACHINES
12″ // £5.49
DUBSTEP / GRIME / FUNKY
Released: Jul 2009
Catalogue Number: YM003

Yellow Machines present two tracks of heavyweight sci-fi electro-step from Scanone. A-side track ‘Sub Prime’ delves into post-garage/dubstep slanted rhythms with epic atmospheric constructions for fans of the Seed label’s purist hybrids, matching current riddim fixations with electronica ambitions. On the flipside ‘Minotaur’ lurches under the weight of halfstepped patterns with a properly dystopian synth soundtrack, sounding like early Claro Inte… READ MORE ABOUT: SCANONE, Sub Prime / Minotaur, YELLOW MACHINES

Fantastic Mr Fox started producing 7 years ago at the age of 14, with his music first being picked up in 2006 by Radio 1’s Steve Lamacq.

Regular support of his early leftfield hip-hop productions from Mr Lamacq helped lead to remix work for Maps, Shitdisco, Just Jack, Soweto Kinch, Polar Bear, Fulborn Teversham, Kid Harpoon, Julia Biel, Riz MC, The Carps, Make Model, The Cansecos, Marissa Nadler, Son Lux and most recently Untold & LV.

Following his remix of Untold’s “Yukon” Fantastic Mr Fox decided to up the tempo of his productions and his first two efforts, produced along side Manchester DJ, promoter and producer Rich Reason, were signed to Untold’s Hemlock label.

A second collaborative release with Rich Reason was put out on Black Acre, whilst FMF’s remix of LV-“Don’t Judge” will soon be available on 2nd Drop Records.

Fantastic Mr Fox’s first solo release is also now finished, with the “Sketches EP” due to be released on Black Acre towards the end of 2009.

FANTASTIC MR FOX – Plimsoul
HEMLOCK
MP3 Release // £1.95
DUBSTEP / GRIME / FUNKY
Released: Mar 2009
Catalogue Number: HEK003
FANTASTIC MR FOX – Plimsoul, HEMLOCK

Hemlock Recordings pull up some debut release business from Manchester’s Rich Reason in collaboration with Fantastic Mr. Fox. It’s hard to tell who’s doing what here, but the IDM traits of Mr. Fox’s previous releases are easy to pick out, while it’s also clearly apparent what’s on their recent playlists with strong elements of Zomby, TRG and Boxcutter fused into the sum of its parts. The trancing synthline on ‘Bleep Show’ will pick up fans of Ninja Tune’s electrostep and breaks types like Shuttle or those who crave for a fusion of proggy electronica with steppers pattern taken from the latest style. Promising stuff from the pair and worth a check if you like Sukh Knight, Sinden or Rob Sparx.

“I can’t believe it’s been almost 2 years since I did a mix for your first show, a lot has changed since then and I’ve moved on.  I’ve chilled out a bit but with that comes more space to hear in-between the beats and more interesting sound design.  That’s the approach I took with my recent double E.P ‘Lockout’ and the mix follows the same path but with fewer vocals and more beats.

For the mix, elements were taken from all over the place and layered together, a lot of UK funky coming out at the moment reminds me of old techno and warp stuff, mixing new afro-Caribbean influenced stuff like Roska with old Latin influenced Black Dog, Cooly G with Luke Slater”

Hexadecibel Electronic Explorations Showcase Mix, July 2009

All songs written, composed, mixed and engineered by hexadecibel. Vancouver, Canada.

All tracks are licensed under Creative Commons Canada.

HxdB aka hexadecibel is a 31 year old bass music producer and DJ hailing from Vancouver Canada.

He was first introduced to bass-centric music in the mid 90s, listening to jungle and drum & bass, which captivated his imagination and inspired him to be more than just a fan of the music.

He finally took the plunge into the production realm some years ago, purchasing a basic MIDI controller and a copy of Fruity Loops and alongside his old production partner, started teaching himself the ways of the bass. Those days were fun and innocent and not much came from the venture, besides a solid foundation of music and a working knowledge of the nuts-and bolts of how to make electronic music.

7 years later and many life experiences later, he had an epiphany. DUBSTEP! This new sound completely changed the way he heard electronic music, and gave him that same feeling he had all those years ago. It was electric, dynamic, exciting music, that seemingly had no boundaries. This new sound was just the thing he needed to launch himself back in to the foray and unleash his creative energies. His first productions exceeded even his own expectations and were happily welcomed by the dubstep community, which gave him the encouragement and inspiration to forge forward and strive to improve.

Now, 2 years later, he has an impressive arsenal of fresh music to his credit, has contributed music to several film projects, scored a documentary and has releases out and forthcoming on several notable record labels, plus a legion of faithful fans who just can’t seem to get enough of his sound. His music is soulful and evocative, always sounding very lush and well-sculpted, accented by pulsating bass waves with a healthy sprinkling of ear candy. Using dubstep as the framework, he skillfully fuses elements of techno, garage and 2-step, with interesting, syncopated rhythms and creative arrangements. His sound typically has a dance floor sensibility that often times, his peers seem to forget about.

The future for this bass architect seems to be very bright and busy, with a feature on Electronic Explorations, the legendary podcast imminent, plus an increasingly in-demand DJ schedule.

He also plays a roll in helping with the operations of DJ Cure’s Aufect Recordings, and together with Cure they run Pressing Issues Recordings, which is currently working on their 3rd vinyl release. Be sure to check out his webpage for up-to-date news and tracks, http://soundcloud.com/hexadecibel.

You can also check out his previous mixes, consisting of exclusives here, http://soundcloud.com/hexadecibel/sets/hxdb-mixes

In summation, this guy is showing no signs of slowing down, with several remixes, collaborations and exciting projects currently in the works and several vinyl and digital releases coming in 2009 & 2010.

Ade Fenton Biography 2008

In 2008, Ade Fenton celebrated 10 years as an established dj and artist within the world techno scene. During that time, he has gone on to establish himself as a respected record producer for artists including electronic music legend Gary Numan, and also playing keyboards in his band.

In 1998, Fenton released the now legendary ‘Coded’ EP on his own Advanced label, and since then he has continued to deliver his own brand of harsh, twisted dancefloor beats with over 50 releases and remixes on labels such as Potential, Ground, Planet Rhythm, Audio, Zenit, Primate, Primevil and Perverter.

Fenton is also a busy international dj with a schedule that has taken him across the globe, from Europe to North and South America, from Malaysia to Australia. He has now held his residency at English techno superclub Atomic Jam for 10 years and he continues to electrify audiences worldwide with his fierce and unique dj sets that fuse thunderous techno funk and electro and combining them with his well documented love of industrial artists such as Nine Inch Nails and Aphex Twin. He has regularly appeared on BBC Radio One, recording dj sets for their ‘Live At Maida Vale’ and Mary Anne Hobbs programmes, as well as appearing on Dave Clarke’s White Noise radio show on numerous occasions.

In 2005, Fenton’s career took a dramatic twist when world famous electro-industrial godfather and innovator Gary Numan asked him to co-produce and co-engineer his album ‘Jagged’, which was released worldwide by Mortal Records in March 2006. The album was released to huge critical acclaim, reaching number 3 in the BBC Indie chart.

In 2007, the long awaited release of his debut artist album ‘Artificial Perfect’ on his industrial/electronic label Submission saw Fenton achieve cult status, a UK Top 75 chart single with ‘The Leather Sea’ and regular plays of the spectacular video for his single ‘Healing’ on MTV2.

In late 2008, Fenton returns with his first new techno release in almost two years, continues to manage a busy schedule including dj dates, live shows and festival appearances and once again teams up with Gary Numan with a new double CD ‘Jagged Edge’ and is currently in the studio producing his new album ‘Splinter’, set for release in spring 2009.

CLUBROOT – Clubroot
LO DUBS
CD // £12.99
DUBSTEP / GRIME / FUNKY
Released: Jun 2009
Catalogue Number: LODUBSD09002CD

Fans of Burial, take note.

Lo Dubs come correct this week with a hugely enticing and anticipated album from Clubroot. Clubroot has apparently been producing for the best part of the decade, initially constructing tech step D’n'B indebted to the likes of Nico, Ed Rush and Optical but shifting his palette to the dominant dubstep style in recent years.

To sum up Clubroots sound as succinctly as possible, it’s like the perfect hybrid of Burial and Kryptic Minds, taking the mood driven atmospheres and quicksilver slink of Burial and alloying it to dynamic basslines and intricately produced rhythm structures. This combination is explored through ten tracks united by a singular rhythmic vision in thrall to classic darkside dance music and operating under the cover of severely occluded atmospheres. With Mary-Anne Hobbs fully on his case and forums across the interweb quickly catching onto his sound it’s not going to be long before he’s soundtracking every channel four ident so make sure to get in early! Essential recommendation for fans of Burial!!!
