CUT COPY - ZONOSCOPE [2011]

big last 10 days for Fingers Crossed; Big Troubles' new album, leaked debut from Discodeine more than a month before it was due and now, an extra special treat for you. no more bullshit from me, this album's been hyped more than healthy (deservedly, i think), i've already posted a remix to whet your appetite. all i'll say is I find it less poppy than In Ghost Colours and Cut Copy have certainly matured in the intervening years. Dig it.

DISCODEINE - DISCODEINE [2011]



It was supposed to be released on the 25th of February but yet again an album I've been looking forward to for months has leaked more than a month early. This is good news for you. And I. Discodeine's debut effort, after teasingly releasing a few singles and EP's over the last year or so, is good. Very good. It's disco flavoured as you might expect, with tribal elements and not a little bit of eccentricity. Sometimes scaling the depths to very deep and dark levels, Pilooski and Pentile have shown yet again that they're not your average bears.

Expect more dance flavoured stuff in the next few days as I work through a backlog of stuff from instrumental hip-hop to straight-up new-rave.

BIG TROUBLES - WORRY [2011]



Photobucket

awesome new album from Big Troubles, a band featured a few months ago right here with a track called Freudian Slips. here's the new album in full, a blissful, fuzzed out pop record from the New Jersey boys. one of the best lo-fi albums of the year bar none.

HOLY OTHER - WE OVER/YR LOVE 7'' EP [2010]

This is the latest EP from Londoner via Berlin ambient artist Holy Other, hopefully it blows your mind as much as it did mine. it's dark and lush ambient dance music, deep bass and thudding kicks. the vocal samples are twisted and affected to almost obscurity. epitomizing everything i love about electronic music.

[edit: people have been asking for the password to the 7'', I've forgotten it. So I've re-uploaded a password-free .zip version. Enjoy!]

an older track, Blissters is darker and colder than the aforementioned EP but still has beautiful buzzing synths and crisp reverb delays; this is by no means a sparse sound.
