Finest Ego – German / Austrian / Swiss Compilation

 

Finest Ego | German / Austrian / Swiss Compilation Cover Art

A while has passed since our last compilation has been released but just in time for the 2011 holiday season Project: Mooncircle and Finest Ego bring you the already fifth edition of our acclaimed compilation series. Shifting focus towards central Europe, we find the three countries Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Sharing lots of their historical and cultural heritage, this copious collection contains work from producers of a wide range of musical manifestations – all located in the spectrum between traditional sample-based and organic sound to electronic and experimental compositions. Grown up in the nineties with the organic sounds from across the big pond and a long tradition of electronic music in the German speaking world, this compilation showcases the fusion of electronic and classical soulful organic elements in the beat scene. The sound is as diverse as the country and its people, from Spaetzle to Klopse and from HipHop to Techno, on this compilation you can find Boombap from the likes of Brenk & Suff Daddy but also electronic sounds from the likes of Robot Koch and Bit Tuner as well as atmospheric sonical waves from Glenn Astro and Anthony Drawn.
The influences vary from Jazz records, video games, Hip Hop, Drum ‘n’ Bass and Techno. But are there two different camps clashing here? Retro vs future, mountain village vs urban center, winter vs summer…

The compilation includes acts like Chief, Brenk, Dexter, Mono:Massive, Hulk Hodn, Captain Crook, Stroe, Hubert Daviz, Comfort Fit, Robot Koch, Jazzo & Melodiesinfonie, Quendolin Fender, Ju-Ar, Twit One, Suff Daddy, Figub Brazlevic, Szenario, Portformat, Flowtec, D-Fekt & Mr. Beef, Bit-Tuner, Feux, Kalifornia Kurt, B-Ju, Playpad Circus, Flex Fab, Ill-Luzion, Anthony Drawn, Hazeem, Minor Sick, XL The Red One, Glenn Astro, Frederic Robinson, and Willy Sunshine.

VNDL – Something for Someone EP out on Abstrakt Reflections

Among all the talented podcasters we’ve been honored to welcome in our Unlog Podcasts’ series in 2011, VNDL was the IDM guy to follow. This Canada based DJ and producer provided us a selection of is works in the Unlog Podcast #4, among which we could already hear some tracks meant to be released some months later in an EP project called Something for Someone.

« […] This EP will be a subtle melting between organic and cinematic substances, ambient and rythmic tracks, all in a futuristic mood. »

The Argentinian label Abstrakt Reflections now counts a new promising music maker among its artists with this new release.

« Phlilippe Vandal is a young man from Canada. Phil has already signed 2 full-length albums on such competent labels as Hymen Records and Raumklang Music. However, VNDLpresents his first EP album on Abstrakt Reflections.

In his debut release, VNDL shows all the shining facets of his unique and organic style. Using live instruments as well as all range of electronic devices, Phil constructs the changing, mysterious sonic world. Textured soundscapes, generated of multitude of layers of sounds, segue to long awaited granular and massive beat parts. The musician uses all the hooks of glitch and IDM scene, combining them in a very improvising manner, originating his own, unique style of electronica. The reality, constructed by VNDL, takes you away to the world of futuristic vehicles, cybernetic cities and unknown environment. The details of the sound are so numerous and so vital, that you will probably go deep enough through the stories this music tells. Like the authentic artist, VNDL uses all the impressions of the last year of his life to make the album sound with deep emotional supply.

The long awaited EP « Something for Someone » also contains a split work with Access to Arasaka, whom VNDL calls his biggest inspiration. »

MC2 ‘Beat Em Up’ EP [CBR010] – Out now on Chateau Bruyant Records

Party time!

MC2 ‘s latest EP Beat Em Up  is out today on Chateau Bruyant Records.

 

« Marseille’s glitch hop duet MC2 comes up this january with a wonder of an EP. Adding some dubstep in their glitch, Miosine and Ckel yet stick to their very own style : somewhere between yesterday’s electro funk, today’s bassmusic and tomorrow stuff. Beat Em up has all it takes to make a great track : classic synthlines, surprise at every drop, this EP is as eficient as beautiful.
Title track is an epic dubstep banger, based on a great melody supported by fat distorted basslines and surrounded by glitchy sounds and arps. Delightful. Feel Roll In is a drumstep glitch hop tribute to whom you know. As weird as it might seem, it does exactly what it says on the tin, while rockin any Phil Collins hater at his own surprise.
Asfor Computer Slave it s another glitch hop banger : bad bass, beautiful pads, nervous cuts, and another mad melody on second drop. It’s all about power and surprise.
Also watch the freebie that comes with the EP as this huge mash up of Infectious Groove classic Violent and Funky will please all 90s lovers. »
