souljazz records
October 12th, 2006
ah, if you get the chance, listen to soul jazz on resonance…nothing but a dreamy late night swagger.
original.1
September 21st, 2006
not quite sure where this one came from but i put it at about 2 years old. by the sounds of it, i think i was having fun then…
all i can tell you is that it starts with a track that may or may not be by YBU, and ends with Tina Turner funking the […]
spreading the minlove
July 28th, 2006
for you lovers of that oh-so pervasive minimal sound (if the electronic exploits at benicassim were anything to go by) the wonderful minlove.net netlabel should not pass you by.
somehow they’ve managed to get some of the biggest labels on the scene (think background records, goosehound) to showcase material not that easy to come by under […]
bong-ra
July 13th, 2006
wow, this guy called bong-ra (via the excellent warp records fortnightly email newsletter) has found a link between drum and bass, old skool rave, happy hardcore and… deathcore. all held together with a large dollop of good old fashioned rumbunctious humour.
the audio equivalent of venetian snares and prodigy meeting tool in a lift on […]
popularmusicfront showcase
June 23rd, 2006
kind of a mash-up this one, kept on a mellow sunday afternoon tip (okay, with a bit of time travel to friday night). the house is a collection from emusic and the netlabels and the grooves are from all over the web. check out the first installment of the popularmusicfront collection now.
les tracks:

dj l’embrouille netlabel mix
June 12th, 2006
over a year ago, a mix by dataman opened me up to a fair portion of the netlabel catalogue which at that time i had just started to explore. since then i have continued to follow the netlabels, building my own netlabel mixes and dipping into this rich source of electronic music whenever i felt […]

the fip mashup
June 8th, 2006
if you’re in brighton away from the downs facing seawards, occasionally you can discover a rare gem floating across the channel airwaves - the wonderful world of fip.
like getting trapped in your local music emporium (think virgin, fnac), sticking well clear of the chart sleaze fodder of daytime radio and digging into just about everything […]
matmos madness
June 7th, 2006
just when your getting disillusioned about how pigeon-holed everything sounds these days along comes something that floors you.
the US arthouse duo of matmos have been getting coverage here on the electronic scene in the likes of trax mag and given their high-fallutin roots and penchant for dropping references to wittgenstein i thought i could be […]

roquette dub - a netlabels mix
April 28th, 2006
i’ve been ploughing through netlabels again, that rich source of electronica. textone is the label that features the heaviest here, as well as a handful of dub techno releases. most on the minimal side but couldn’t help veering off in the direction of techno towards the end.
The River Of Grace - Taho

hip-wiggling house from suburban
April 18th, 2006
david lara of suburban tracks shows off some of the more percussive side of european techno-house. does seem to get a little carried away in the middle with some swirling synth lines that ended up giving trance such a bad name in the ‘nineties, but delivers towards the end with some belching baselines and driving […]
