Unquenchable Thirst - Ariel Pink & The Haunted Graffiti - Before Today (4AD)



Rinse and repeat this whole album immediately. I haven't been obsessed with a cohesive LP this much in a long long time. Who knew that Ariel would benefit so much from a recording budget, some studio musicians and proper equipment. I mean, obviously the kid had immense talent with rickshaw perfect pop songs in "Kate I Wait" and "Alisa", but god damn this will be in constant rotation all summer. Mr. Pink you have outdone yourself once again. Big ups to 4AD for supporting good art. I guess the only downside to this album has to be...no mouth drums?



HOLD ONN> IM CALLING> CALLLING BACK TO THE BOWL> AND WE'LL DAZZLE THEM ALL>

9.5 .... IMMENSE UPS TO DECIBEL TOLLS FOR TELLING IT LIKE IT IS. Paul Pierce Truth 34 right here.

Guy is one prolific mother fucker. Check out this blissed out funky sax track he just put out with the ADDED PIZZAZ, where you might be able to teleport to a stoned out jazzy wave in the ocean, say'n.

Local Love: FRI 6.4 - MARTYN @ BASSIC 3 YR



Felix Cuplianos BASSIC! Been a crazy 3 years.

Like Kode 9, Martyn has slowly dropped out of the 140 dubstep game in favor of a hybrid of funky, 130 acid tribal, and 2 step flavored progressive garage. His Fabric 50 is an essential listen for anyone that has yet to hear it. Don't pass up an opportunity to see some flawless mixing!

BASSIC Presents:
MARTYN (3024, Techtonic, Warp, Revolver)
C DUBS (BASSIC, La Folia)
Damien Paul
Jay K
Goodlife Bar
28 Kingston Street
Boston, Ma
21+
$7

It has been a long road from when we first came together to throw BASSIC in June of '07. There were times we didn't think we were going to make it and times we never thought it would end. And we're still going strong thanks to everyone who has continued to support us on this amazing journey!

Join us on our 3 year anniversary with a special guest MARTYN! This Holland born native to DC transit has been a staple in the growth of what dubstep was before it had a name. His label 3024 has been killing it with a slew of big releases and more in the works with remixes by Zombie and fresh tunes from newcomer Illum Sphere. Always pushing the boundaries with his production and blurring the lines between techno, house dubstep, and beyond we never know what he's got in his record bag for us! Its the long awaited return of one of our favorites! And if you weren't there the last time he graced us with his presence then you just don't know!

This party also marks a huge milestone for Boston! We're celebrating the releases of BASSIC's own C Dubs. His remix of An On Bast's "Upon the Dew Drops" crafted alongside La Folia Label head Inanna has been receiving love from big guys such as Axel Bartsch, Konrad Black, and Luciano! And his first release "Don't Know, which was featured on the TOGETHER festival compilation has also been making waves.

We've got Boston's Bad boys Damien Paul & Jay K rolling out the beats upstairs all night long so there's something for everyone. Don't sleep and get there early b/c we can't guarantee there's room for everybody!
