Interweb Highlights - Starkey Big Up Podcast 09


Now this is the Starkey set I wanted to see at his Goodlife gig. Nice to see him slowly moving away from the "over the top aggro for the sake of being aggro" sound that plagued his set the first time I saw him. After he absolutely killed his 4:20 set at Camp Bisco (vids up shortly), it got me thinking that his Goodlife set could have been a fluke brought on by a few too many whisky sours and the few overly enthusiastic fucks telling him to play more wobble. No doubts in my mind after hearing this mix though. Big up to Big Ups for this!!...crazy amount of unheard dubs.


In the Big Up Podcast mix he walks us through various musical flavors, making it hard to categorize his sound. The only thing is certain – you haven’t heard this before and it will make you move. Watch out for the lazers and Starkbots!

Interweb Highlights - TRG Fact Mix 75



FACT continually pushes the boundaries in the ever evolving world of electronic music and covers more music that make my ears happy than not. Earlier this week they put up FACT Mix 75 by the ever versatile, Bucharest's TRG. He's goes on a welcomed Garage/housey/UKF vibe here that definitely gets the party rolling. check it.

FACT MIX 75 - TRG (up for three weeks)

(From Fact)

Cosmin Nicolae by name, you probably know TRG best for his dubstep productions on labels like Tempa, Hotflush and Hessle (his 'Put You Down' was the label's first release, and Martyn's remix on HES004 arguably their most well-known). But judging by his FACT mix, he's currently pushing a housier sound: Karizma, Hot City, Roska and Cajmere feature alongside a host of new TRG productions, and tracks are mixed deep into each other. Plus it ends on 'Trilingual Dance Sexperience', which is such a jam it's unreal.

1. Karizma - Necessary Madness (R2)
2. Seiji - Hohoho (CDR)
3. Roska- Elevated Level (Kicks & Snares)
4. Mystery - Speechless
5. Hot City - No More (Infrasonics)
6. TRG - Now You Know (CDR)
7. TRG - Tribal Flex (CDR)
8. L-Vis 1990 - United Groove (TRG Remix)
9. Hot City - Hot City Bass (Ramp)

New Grooves Volume II: Aug 10th - 16th



Second edition of our weekly feature highlighting the grooves that are tickling our ears this week.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VA - Echo Expansion (Porter Records)
(Flying Lotus, Ras G, Gaslamp etc)

It's hard to ignore the fact that there seems to be a lot of spiritual soul searching from the more thoughtful quarters of the American instrumental hiphop scene right now, with a bright spotlight of spectral sunshine breaking the clouds and focussing on the City of Angels. Recent records from The Life Force Trio and Flying Lotus among others have really displayed a yearning for something a little deeper, even extending to the psyche obsessions of Gaslamp Killer and Alfred Darlington's many guises. Dublab and Porter Records have succinctly compiled the best of these spiritually connected producers with 'Echo Expansion', dividing a group of 13 artists into two sides, 'Future' and 'Roots'. On the 'Future' side we have 3 tracks from Alfred Darlington (aka Adventure Time, Blank Blue and Daedelus), a psyche rock gem from Gaslamp Killer & The Gonja Sufi, plus a pure bomb track from Flying Lotus, and more from Ras G, Dimlite, DNTEL and The life Force Trio. On the 'Roots' side we have Languis, Jahbitat, Kutmah, Hashim B, Take, MatthewDavid and Andrew Pekler all exploring psyched variations on an elevated theme. It's a lovingly crafted and beautifully presented package that any of the more cosmically inclined heads will lap up. Very good indeed. (Boomkat)

New Grooves Volume 1: Aug 3rd - 9th

There is no way we are able to cover EVERY release that has been pleasing our ears that week, so we decided that to do an oft updated weekly post, highlighting some of the finest cuts that need to heard . All of these come highly recommended.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have just enough time to sneak one more tune into this week's selection, and it's a biggun. This will see wax on Danjah's "Industry Standard Vol. 4" due on Planet Mu in the middle of August and could easily be THE truest vinyl release of 2009.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Shortstuff - A Rustling (Ramp)

Shortstuff on point once again with 2 more big cuts. Both tracks "Rustling" and "Stuff" are heavy on the garage vibes and that highly syncopated left field percussion kick Brackles and Shortstuff have been deep into lately. This is the sound right here.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Throwback boogie g funk beats from Stones Throw's resident synth master Dam Funk.

I really can't think of a good analogy to how great of a pairing this video and this song are, so just watch it. This reminds me of playing Cruisin' USA at Roller Kingdom eating some rotisserie pizza. Thanks Dam. Ups to BenUFO for this.



Lastly on this Dam Funk kick, he recently did an exclusive mix for Scotland UK's, Lucky Me. As one might except from Dam, this mix is an array of early some of the most out there early to mid 80's boogie funk, cosmo synth beats and spaced out prog. He also throws in a few newer releases and an unreleased track of his own. Intro for the mix and tracklisting below.

"This year has been Dâm-Funk's year. Which is kinda ironic given the man is the anti-hipster. He loves this music. He loves its very essence. With Damon you should know you aren't getting a DJ that's just exploring genres looking for ideas. These are not samples on this tape, fresh for the plunder. Nor are you getting a connoisseurial collectors tape here. I mean, who else lists labels and the year on his tracklisting? Dam is for sharing. If this music is rare then so be it. It's only there cause in Dâm-Funk's mind this is the best party in the cosmos - and you are invited. He lives this music. The real deal. We got this in the post with a note saying '"All music was recorded via the 'original wax' recordings. No Mp3's or re-issues were used whatsoever."
