Lone Reality Testing Album Stream

Posted by Jakub

artworks-000081628087-4j970o-t500x500

Surprisingly this is Lone’s 6th album which is a bit mind-boggling but very exciting to have someone this prolific sharing soo much. Right when I thought Lone was going to head the Rustie / Sonic the Hedgehog soundtrack route he rewards us with this mellow collection of tracks that touch on New Age intros and his earlier material without the heavy lo-fi touch.

The album is out June 16th via R&S records: Support VINYL | CD | FLAC

World Cup + Napolian + Lee Bannon + Lapti

World Cup and Driftless Recordings clock in with the shortest EP sampler ever made but it might be just enough to get me hooked.

I’m becoming a bigger and bigger Napolian fan, dug up this Oneohtrix Point Never remix that didn’t get enough love.

Lee Bannon is the torch bearer of this indie drum n’ bass scene that keeps growing. I love how constant and direct he is, not too flashy just focuses on the quality of it.

The Russian youth internet culture writing songs about Hawaii? i’m in.

Beacon + Medlar + Karmelloz + Max D

Posted by Jakub

tumblr_n2iqfsAkj31tumiwho1_1280



Beacon is back with this remix for Tomas Barfod touching on Little Dragon meets Ellen Allien / Apparat with the bubbly rhythm and all the transitioning parts flow soo easily into each other.

Medlar gets tapped to rework a Arthur Beatrice cut, the piece has such diversity and musicianship compared to most remixes these days. What really grabs me is the amount of quality downtime in the breakdown and the full opening of the song in the last 2 minutes that fuses together soo many genres without ever feeling like he lost control.

1080p delivering another internet uncovered gem, this is getting ridiculous because the vaporwave umbrella can only hold soo many soundcloud musicians, this is spewing into the New Age world but giving us one of the most interesting takes on utopia, i’m completely drenched in happiness that this sound is happening.

Having trouble finding any of the House Of Doors material as MP3’s, i’m just picking up the vinyl on Discogs. The only full track I could find is this Max D remix that touches on that Dutch Techno sound and very much inspired by some 90s Hardcastle jams.

Fort Romeau + Kiasmos + Yagya + Huerco

Sorry for the silence, I had the Heathered Pearls live show to prepare and I also played my teenage dream show which was Movement Festival in Detroit, anyways back on the horse!

A pretty perfect pairing which I hope turns into a remix swap, Jacques Greene just posted his remix of Fort Romeau, always ethereal and always a dancefloor hit.

Kiasmos has elements of Booka Shade if I remember correctly, slightly more indie and the piano keys feel like a sample but I could be wrong, either way worth checking out until the end.

Yagya just posted a 20 minute preview of his album, I have to say it might be his best yet, for him this seems like he’s pushing his own boundaries slowly but still noticeably and fans of the old material won’t be disappointed.

Another breathtaking internet fusing caribbean piece, these sort of sounds are very visual maybe because I sit on tumblr for 2 hours a day but I have to give it to Huerco S. for making this CFCF rework a special one.
