I:Cube + Pogo + Gonjasufi + Blue Daisy
Don’t get French producer I:Cube confused with Ice Cube and write him off, this guy is the real deal when it comes to stunning space disco that pays attention to the details with the proper patience, a great headphone listen.
I’ve been loving Pogo’s edits especially Alice and White Magic that are just oozing out on the nostalgia tip. The tracks are very simple almost like he created them with Garage Band but he makes it work. Watch the video below, I love his use of the older wise fish for a split second.
Warp’s new signing Gonjasufi has a real chance of hitting a wider spectrum of fans than even Flying Lotus[who I hear did the beats], his vocal style for some reason is really appealing to my ears, it feels thought thru and refreshing.
Blue Daisy is a artist I first heard on Percussion Lab radio when Praveen dropped it, it has hints of that more airy minimalistic dub sound, the low end swerves in and out once in a while at the perfect tempo, listening to it now I just wish the song was 10+ minutes long.

February 3, 2010 at 5:48 pmThat video really made me smile… Very cool, the song stands nicely on its own also… NAVIS; I’ll give you a comedic eye-roll, if you like?

February 4, 2010 at 5:49 amCan’t stand Gonja Sufi, another horrible signing by Warp imo…
His track is the only thing I can’t listen to on FlyLo’s album. Stay off the drugs kids!

February 7, 2010 at 2:28 amHey just so you know, Pogo just uses FL Studio to create his tracks. Not sure i’m a big fan of this song of his, but most of his other work is great.
