Kid Koala - Space Cadet (2011)
In premiera, un album cu adevarat deosebit in lumea triphopului. Noul proiect de la KK nu se rezuma doar la muzica, ci si la un comics-book, albumul reprezentand un soundtrack pntru el.
E o noua interpretare a comunicarii dintre artist si ascultator si o oportunitate de a cunoaste lumea autorului prin propria lui prizma.
La moment pot sa prezint doar albumul, insa cu prima aparite a cartii in format electronic o voi uploada aici.

Down to the Bone - Main Ingredients (2011)
"One of the UK's best jazz-funk groove bands, and one of the country's most successful jazz exports (their album "Manhattan To Staten" reached No 2 on the Billboard US Jazz Albums chart). Led by Stuart Wade, long-time producer/writer behind the band, the line-up includes vocalist Imaani, formerly of Incognito."

DJ Shadow - The Less You Know, The Better (2011)
DJ Shadow figura emblematica a hip-hop-ului instrumental, turntablist genial, compozitor si producator al celui mai de succes album Unkle ( Psyence Fiction), dupa mai multe mini-releasuri apare pe scena triphop cu un album nou.
In 2010 prestarea live si discutia scurta pe care am avut-o cu el dupa concert m-a impresionat nu mai putin decat muzica pe care o cunosteam pana atunci. Un artist foarte talentat, carismatic si pozitiv.

Swarms - Old Raves End (2011)
Swarm- un ambient dubstep ce provoaca acelasi sentiment pe care il simt pasind incet prin frunze intr-o dupa-amiaza cetoasa de toamna, cunoscandu-l pe Camus, sau redescoperind caldura din adierea trecutului. Sentiment care te urmareste din filmele lui Trier si acapareaza maduva oaselor in noptile insotite de Burial.
Swarm e muzica ce trezeste sentimentul de melancolie.
Swarm e Bristol.

Sin Smiley - Streets Of Night (2011)
Ceva timp in urma constient ignoram orice produs muzical aparut in Russia, Ukraina si inca cateva state estice, cu oameni frumosi insa cu o cultura muzicala moderna mediocra.
Iar in timp ce eu continuam sa ignor, la ei se nasteau primele incercari de a produce trip-hop si downtempo autohton. Nu vroiam sa particip la metamorfoza, ci sa trec direct la un produs testat de timp si intarit prin experienta. "Produsul" nu a intarziat mult timp. A inceput cu Long Arm, iar apoi au urmat mai multe, surprinzand prin nivelul sunetului si beaturi tripante.
Sin Smiley e noul nume in lumea mea muzciala si se pare ca singurul artist trip-hop in extrem orientul rus, din orasul Habarovsk. Un artist fascinant si modest; uman si simpatic. Muzica vie si sincera ce balanseaza intre un downtempo fin si un chillout instrumental.
ps. Revenind la modestia si simpatia artistului:
"Ну что ребят, с момента выхода моей первой и на данный момент последней сольной работы Streets of Night (релиз состоялся 27.06.2011, однако объявление авторской раздачи произошло 12.07.2011, только после этого и начали появляться первые комментарии) прошло чуть более пары недель, начну пожалуй со слов слушателей и артсовета.
Первым человеком, оценившим новый материал был мой хороший знакомый и частично сенсей Revolted Child из проекта Pitch Razahs. Так вот, Олег сказал, что музыка ему понравилась, она очень интересная и по сравнению с предыдущим релизом показала, насколько можно вырасти за полгода, постоянно экспериментируя со звуком (ну и конечно сменив программу "звука вёдер" на более профессиональную=)). Тем не менее, как технарь он не смог не заметить недочеты в обработке звуке и общий непрофессионализм, но смог тут же ободрить, сказав, что это все решаемо в дальнейшем прогрессе. Хочу сказать, что мнение Олега остается для меня одним из важнейших до сих пор.
Улыбнула цитата участника артсовета, заявившего, что я слишком далеко ушел в степь от классического бристоль-саунда, не забыв упомянуть общую унылость, монотонность, хотя в описании было указано, что это уже не такой уж и трип-хоп... Тем не менее я благодарен ему и за такое мнение, т.к. это не помешало большинству думающих своими извилинами людей скачать альбом и оценить by themself. Возможно последущие мои работы понравятся тов. рецензору больше."(c)

Jojo Effect - Marble Tunes (2011)
"Simply said wearing rose tinted glasses, turns a blind eye to the world and puts one into a happy mood! This is the third album by Lounge project JoJo Effect "marble tunes" it is happy and full of life that inevitably sets you into a good mood. Soft Latin rhythms, jolly Electric Swing, sumptuous lush chill-out beats and groovy NuJazz provides you for a sunny holiday atmosphere. The stress disappears and you see yourself sitting in a convertible, elbows relaxed, fingers on the steering wheel driving towards the sun. Roll Sixteen colorful Marbles swinging through time and space, from living room to a Swing Palace, that dramatic silent film, that relaxed sunset scenario in Technicolor, from easy going to hanging out in extreme relaxation. Put your hands up In the air JoJo Effect is "marble tunes" full of passion pure in its mission: to conjure up a broad grin on the faces of their listeners. In addition to the dynamic music, there are the exceptional singers being Soul Sister Bajka, Power-Singer Brenda Boykin, Jazz Crooner Iain Mackenzie and of course Anne Schnell, the vocal heart of JoJo Efect. "Marble tunes" is a musical spa package, which can recommend any good doctors and pharmacists to safely brighten any ones mood."(c)

VA - Nightmares on Wax Presents Wax da Beach (2011)
Dupa minunatele 3 volume de "Nightmares On Wax presents Wax On records", labelul ne bucura cu o compilatie spectaculoasa in care cu placere am surprins pe Gelka, Guts, Bonobo, Nightmares on Wax si alti creatori de sunete downtempo.
Imi intind corpul, lasandu-l sa para o panza de corabie.. lenesa si nepasatoare.. insa care cu placere urmareste de sus luciul apei si corabiile plictisite.
Sunetul din boxe suprima sistemele de racire si orice alte generatoare de zgomot de oficiu.
Briza oceanica a acoperit tot biroul cu nisip alb si curat, iar soarele e pe care sa apuna..
E vineri si sutnem gata de tripul in Ibiza.
Trip in stilul Wax da Beach :)
"Mixed by Nightmares on Wax. Leeds born DJ E.A.S.E aka George Evelyn aka Nightmares on Wax has out together a compilation fuelled solely by the soothing slow jam sounds of Wax da Beach. The Wax da Beach parties started when George moved to Ibiza and discovered a gap within the alternative dance scene, a need for something else – that something else was Wax da Beach. Each track on the two disk compilation was carefully chosen, embodying the very essence of Ibiza's weekly Wax da Beach party."

Carbon based lifeforms - VLA (2011)
bonus la albumul precedent- trackul VLA extins la 60 min
"Immersive and hypnotic drone, [ VLA ] is the soundtrack to your inner excursions. The complete and original work is composed by Johannes Hedberg from Göteborg, Sweden."(c)
"Immersive and hypnotic drone, [ VLA ] is the soundtrack to your inner excursions. The complete and original work is composed by Johannes Hedberg from Göteborg, Sweden."(c)
Carbon Based Lifeforms - Twentythree (2011)
Album diferit de celelalte releasuri create de CBL. Pure ambient. Cu mai putine ritmuri tripante, cu un ton melancolic, imbibat cu "tristete cosmica", insa la fel de interesant si fermecator.
Si din nou.. Ultimae Records.
"This is the densest that Gothenburg's Carbon Based Lifeforms have ever sounded. Their previous output all the way back to the Notch incarnation traded on electronic sound with a very definite pulse, whether it was beats, underlying melody or sequences. TWENTY THREE is not so much a primal u-turn but an insular indulgence in layers of ambient sound that have previously been at the base of Carbon Based Lifeforms creations, not as a sonic shroud around them.
The title, TWENTYTHREE, is suggestive of everything from a numerologist’s wet dream to some in-joke or other. With this album, it no doubt refers to the width of the binary message sent out to some hopeful star cluster by the Arecibo Telescope in 1974. Unsurprisingly, the first track is entitled ARECIBO and it emulates a kind of meandering strobe of condensed sparsity and not the signals and waveforms you might expect ( This was the approach taken by Arecibo aka Lustmord on the ambient classic TRANS PLUTONIAN TRANSMISSIONS in 1994 ). Here, the hypothetical sound of the environment the signal passes through ( and not the signal itself ) is the subject. Occasional flourishes drifting in a distant part of the mix still manage to make this singular drone sound very much like Carbon Based Lifeforms as we know them. SYSTEM sheds some of the tonal weight of the 9 minute opener and bathes in random diffusions, oscillations and other fragments of audio spaghetti. SOMEWHERE IN RUSSIA opens with an airy rhythm and an indecipherable voice like a public announcement at some point of human transport. This gives way to a layered swell of slow drones and airy synths in a progression which is more acquainted with previous recorded output. The expectation here is that it will take off into a trademark Carbon Based Lifeforms sequence but it never does. TERPENE is more porous, allowing melody and even a hint of a rhythm to cut through the density to familiar sonic ground. INERTIA’s frosty layer of ambience with reverberating drips and dribbles glides like a sonic leak and a hypnotic thaw all in one. VLA ( VLA is the Radio Astronomy Observatory, in New Mexico – or in layman’s terms - that place with all the huge white satellite dishes in the desert that pops up in movies all the time ) is presented here in a 10 minute edited form. Like ARECIBO, it is one of the album’s dark moments guessing at an impervious ambience of vast space. For the adventurous soul, a one hour edit of this track was released round about the same time as the album. For this wretch’s ill gotten gains, the album provides a much more satisfying listen and the annexed release seems a little unnecessary. KENSINGTON GARDENS, an odd trajectory given the bulk of subject matter here, is based on field recordings and contrasts previous tracks with it’s terrestrial airflow, wind chimes, distant birds, traffic and even the odd hint of human offspring playing. HELD TOGETHER BY GRAVITY is the requiem, resolutely providing a tone of melancholy and bringing it all together, although whether there’s some greater message or concept contained herein is unclear, astray somewhere in the enigmatic throes of sound."

IamOmni - IamOMNI [produced by: Tricky] (2011)
"The prolific, globetrotting Los Angeles emcee and vocalist, IAMOMNI presents his defining work. IAMOMNI is produced by the British musical visionary, Tricky who strips the trip-hop sound he created alongside Massive Attack and Portishead and on solo albums like Maxinquaye and Pre-Millennium Tension, down to a lean, sinewy hybrid of hip-hop, rock, dubstep and new wave, all intercut with heady, atmoshperic vocals from singers Tiki Lewis and Kassia Conway. Recorded between Los Angeles and Paris, IAMOMNI also features Japan's premier emcee Shingo2, and Suffa from Australia's hip-hop crew Hilltop Hood, rounding out an album every bit as global as the struggle has become. As we fashion the future from the rubble of the 20th century, our hearts and minds are the frontline of the new war, and the enemy has become part of us. IAMOMNI is IAMOMNI's call to arms for the youth to claim control of themselves, and to understand that in a world where nothing seems real, they are the only thing left that is."

Thievery Corporation - Culture Of Fear (2011)
Pentru mine Thievery e muzica sub care iti trimiti trupul dimineata la lucru, in timp ce sufletul deghizat intr-un bastinas indian danseaza dansul ploii udneva prin Rocky Mountains.
Am avut norocul sa fiu in inima unei prestatii live. Si cu toate ca organizarea era groazncia, trupa mi-a lasat o impresie deosebit de calda.
La fel ca si celalte 5 albume aparute sub egida formatiei, albumul nou e foarte reusit.
Downtempo si Dub plin de culori vii si pozitivism.

Sunet original, inspirat de muzica si lumea emotionala ce insoteste sub-genul cinematografic "Spaghetti Western"
(termenul datorandu-se numarului mare de westerne produse si regizate de italieni in mijlocul anilor 1960).
Si apropom muzica e imbibata cu Emancipator, pe album fiind prezent si un track a lor, remixat.

Govinda - Universal On Switch (2011)
"Austin, Texas native Govinda drops this album just in time to give the already raucous crowds a little taste before he goes out on a couple guest appearances outside his home base. He’ll be jamming through Dallas for Manifestation Celebration in May, which makes this album even more of a must-have.
Govinda starts Universal on Switch off with a nice dose of his trademark Middle Eastern down-tempo beats. As the album progresses, Govinda winds the listener in, out and through the elements of dub, down-tempo, and Middle Eastern influenced music. Govinda mixes the essential element of deep bass as he blends the melodious voices of beautiful women, chanting men, and other audio samples that give each track a unique feel.
Along with great production he put into Universal on Switch, Govinda plays the violin effortlessly throughout the different tracks allowing one to fully grasp his talents. This is the first opportunity Shane O’Madden, the face behind the beats, has had to fully concerntrate on producing music. For his first five years out of college, he worked for Mattel media writing music for teeny-bopper video games. O’Madden’s conscious efforts on this one are not easily missed.
Govinda is a self-proclaimed pleasure junkie, who loves anything that stimulates the body’s senses. The new album is aptly named — it’s something that turns everybody on.
Go support your local Texas music by getting the album, checking out his shows, and spreading the word."(c)

Red Snapper - Key (2011)
"‘Key’ is a guide to all things ‘Snapper’, ghostly sonic landscapes, ripping machine gun rhythms and bone shaking bass. Two years in the making, from a band who met nearly 20 years ago, a sonic journey through afrobilly funk, grinding dub jazz and future blues bophop, full of dark soul and blistering passion. “Key” is the seventh and arguably the best album from a genre-defying group that continue to break boundaries and create new sounds while staying true to their unique energy that fans have always loved."
"Red Snapper are a British instrumental band founded in London in 1993 by Ali Friend (double bass), Richard Thair (drums), and David Ayers (guitar). The three core members are also joined by various guest musicians and vocalists on different records. According to music journalist, Jason Ankeny (Allmusic) “the British acid jazz trio were notable for their pioneering synthesis of acoustic instruments and electronic textures”.
Stylistically, Red Snapper’s music contains elements of jazz, funk, jungle, trip-hop, hip-hop and breakbeat, as well as references to early psychedelic and progressive rock..."(c)lastfm

Wagon Christ - Toomorrow (2011)
"Proiectul lui Luke Vibert, producator prolific pe scena electronica si degraba schimbatoriu de pseudonime. Un album foarte distractiv, un pic trippy-hippy/hop, built from scratching and sampling. De fapt, cred ca sufera de un pic de sampling overkill, de unde senzatia permanenta de colaj, de chestie fragmentara. E foarte bine facut, cat de mult o sa va placa depinde de gust/dispozitie."(c)
"2010 was an unprecedented lull in Luke Vibert releases. The UK producer also known as Wagon Christ, Amen Andrews, Plug, Spac Hand Luke, and more has released music every single year since 1993, the only exceptions being a brief pause in 1999, and the 2010 drought that just ended today with the release of the new Wagon Christ album Toomorrow.
Ninja Tune recently posted a fifteen minute minimix to give us a sampling of what Toomorrow holds. Looks like it’s going to be another playful romp in the sunny fields of psychedelia and hip hop.
Once again, the Wagon proves he is not subject to following the latest beat trends of the UK and the world. Beats of all shades are used to funkify carnival music and sci-fi melodies the shift between degrees of sentimentally and unbridled joy.
Hear the minimix below and just try and stop yourself from smiling."

Chinese Man - Racing With The Sun; Miss Chang (2011)
Chinese Man (proiect muzical colectiv de la care a pornit si casa de discuri cu acelasi nume).
Albumele precedente au adus in lumea trip-hopului o muzica deosebit de frumoasa si vie. O sa le sharuiesc neaparat intr-o zi.
Intre timp apreciem albumul nou.
"Who are they? Where are they? And more particularly what are they? If you really wonder, these few lines won't be that useful...
One‐quarter Cantonese, two‐thirds Manchou, the Chinese man appears to be from the Wu Tang Mountain, not far from Marseilles, France. In 2004, the Chinese man (as we affectionately call him) decided to send his disciples around the world to spread the Zen spirit with old music samples and supersonic bass !
Thus, Sly, Zé Mateo and High Ku left their master, ready to face the mission they had been entrusted with.
In 2005, the three companions committed their first phonographic havoc. "THE PANDI GROOVE EP", a mix of influences back from their parents : Reggae, Brazilian Baile Funk and Old School Hip Hop... With the Mistral in their back, the band expanded on the creation of a 2nd maxi with the participation of Leo Le Bug (an unconditional producer fed with psychedelic 70's Hip hop) and polymorph toasters from the band "Bionic Man Sound ". »THE BUNNI GROOVE EP now confirms the previous oracles, the YI King speaks and it is the fire that falls from the sky.
It is now a real army, serving under the banner of the Chinese Man; Fred & Annabelle create images to depict the stories of the greatest battles of those mysterious warriors while High Ku, Zé Mateo and The Yan disseminate the Zen Spirit during wild parties, the Printemps de Bourges to the Solidays in Paris as well as during Les Nuits Zébrées, with Sharon Jones, RJD2 and DJ Qbert.
After «THE INDI GROOVE EP", Chinese Man has released his first CD compilation of those vinylistic misdeeds. Released in 2007, "The Groove Sessions Vol. 1" is a first retrospective in 12 tracks of the adventures of the Chinese Man and his disciples.
On the eve of the release of the second volume of "Groove Sessions", the Chinese Crew has been tirelessly preparing a new offensive on stage; High Ku, Sly and Zé Mateo have sharpened their swords. Lurked in the shadow, they are waiting, ready to go fighting...
Recognizing the sign of the Chinese Man presence is quite simple : you have to notice heavy bass and especially... slanting eyes. Don't be surprised if they surreptitiously enter your home, those guys are deceitful, bearing arms and are unscrupulous !"

Ugress - Planet U : Planetfall , The Lost Ruins [EP] (2011)
"Planet U is a project from Ugress running through all of 2011, celebrating 10 years as an artist. New EPs are released every few months, and the EP tracks are released continuously, in the end the full album will be out. There is an introduction post explaining the project further.
There is a story behind the Planet, but so far only pieces and fragments have been revealed through the first episodes."
"Episode One and Two are out, almost as scheduled. Episode Three is planned for May. Full album release set for late this year, after the continuous EP releases has ran their course. I'm very happy how this project has turned out to work for me, and appearantly my listeners too. This process is so much better than massive album efforts every other year. Releasing material in this sort of form is much more managable for me to pull off. I get to work on "my" stuff as much as possible, and this geeky "release-early, release-often" cycle gives me lots of valuable information back.
After a few months of film production mentioned above, I will have July and August to finish the whole Planet U project. I'm very much looking forward to those months, disappear and spend some quality time wrapping it up.
After Planet U, I have a huge amount of side-project releases piling up, spring of 2012 is reserved for those. I'm SO very much looking forward to that. If the mayans shut down the universe in 2012 I'll be upset."(c)

Aes Dana - Perimeters(2011)
O alta formatie cu un sunet interesant de la Ultiame Records.
Psy Ambient tripant si linistit (de parca ar putea fi si altfel).
Mi-a placut mai putin decat albumul Asura -360, aparut sub egida aceluiasi label. Insa a lasat o impresie placuta si un loc bronat in playlistul de noapte:)
"Vincent Villuis lifts the veil on a vibrant album filled with a fragile melancholy and yet refreshing intensity; as always altering and fusing light and darkness while playing with the idea of close and distant environmental resonances.
His music has taken a new depth, enriched by his encounter with German composer Christoph Berg and his experience as an "artiste en residence" at Les Dominicains de Haute Alsace, an ancient cloister revamped into a music hall where the artist ambled within the walls to record echoes and atmospheres and infused them in his compositions.
All along [ Perimeters ] atmospheric electronica flirts with neo-classical space music, warm downtempo grooves and basslines roll upon hypnotic pads, fragmented drums imprint beats into still and ecstatic layers of field recordings and subtly AES Dana throws in pushy and enthusiastic progressive trance bringing a driving force to the musical journey.
11 stunning tracks to take us beyond the perimeters of our microcosmic life."

UNKLE - Only The Lonely [EP] (2011)
Minunat EP.
Ccu foarte mult scepticism dadeam play in dimineata de azi. Ultimul album nu a reusit sa ma impresioneze si nu prea aveam asteptari nici de la asta. Insa, spre bucuria mea, a surprins placut prin calitate si atmosfera.
Stilul m-a dus cu gandul la Röyksopp :)

Burial + Four Tet + Thom Yorke - Ego / Mirror (2011)
Burial , Four Tet , Thom Yorke.
Sincer sa fiu in toata "lista" de mai sus, personal pe mine ma intereseaza doar primele 6 litere :)
Vazand prezenta lui Burial in titlul noului mini-release, nu am mai stat sa observ pe Four Tet si Thom Yorke. Si cu toate ca imi place mult creatia lor, atunci cand merge vorba de Burial... "все умерли" :)
Probabil daca nu ar fi atractia nesanatoasa fata de el, blogul asta ar avea mult mai putine formatii postate, pentru ca in ultima vreme formatiile necunoscute si albumele noi le-am descoperit in urma refreshurilor si cautarilor de noutati legate de el.
Anul asta o sa apara albumul comun a celor de la Massive si Burial.. "imho" cel mai important eveniment din luema triphopului dar si a dubstepului pntru 2011.
Pana atunci , savuram 2 piese minunate si ne invatam sa fim rabdatori :)

Hadouken! - For The Masses (2010)
pure energy :)
update:
F misto albumul. Ceva mediu intre Prodigy, Chemical Brothers si Asian dub foundation :)
Bine..exagerez. Insa Hadouken! chair au reusit sa scoata un album calitativ intr-un stil in care doar f. putini reusesc sa imrpesioneze cu adevarat.
O surpriza palcuta a fost si faptul ca vin la BEstfest la vara in Buc. Intuitia imi sopteste ca prestatia live nu va fi mai proasta decat albumul :)
"Hadouken! are a indie/electro band formed in 2006 at the University of Leeds, United Kingdom by vocalist James Smith (born 1985) and guitarist Daniel “Pilau” Rice (born 1986). After forming their own record label, Surface Noise Records, in February 2006 Smith began writing and demoing the first Hadouken! tracks. The band was formed in October 2006 with Daniel Rice’s brother, drummer Nick Rice (born 1988) and James Smith’s then girlfriend Alice Spooner who plays synths. In December 2006 they added bassist Chris Purcell (born 1986) to their lineup.
In February 2007 the band released their first record, a two song vinyl with the song “That Boy That Girl”, which gained mainstream popularity after the video, directed by friend Bob Harlow, made it onto MTV2. Shortly after the video, the band added bassist Chris Purcell. After releasing their 12-track mixtape “Not Here To Please You” on November 12, 2007 featuring originals and remixes, the band returned to the studio to complete their debut album Music for an Accelerated Culture. This featured nine new songs as well as the single “Liquid Lives” and was released on May 5th 2008. It achieved reasonable success reaching 12th in the UK album charts.
In mid-2009, the band recorded their second studio album, For The Masses, in Holland with drum and bass producers Noisia. The band described the new album as being different, both lyrically and musically. The album was released on February 25th 2010 and did not have the same success as their debut album, receiving generally poor reviews from critics and reaching 19th in the UK album charts." (c)lastfm

Daedelus - Bespoke (2011)
Ciudata muzica :)
"“Daedelus - псевдоним, под которым скрывается Альфред Вайсберг-Робертс (Alfred Weisberg-Roberts), калифорнийский диджей, композитор и аранжировщик. За шесть лет плодотворной работы Daedelus снискал славу увлеченного экспериментатора, невероятного меломана и сумасшедшего коллекционера. В его подвале более 10 000 пластинок: от саундтреков к фильмам 30-х годов, классического хип-хопа и раннего рэйва начала 90-х - до батукады времен повстанческого движения в Бразилии.
Альфред в восторге от всего, что звучит или выглядит недоработанным, попорченным или состарившимся. И это отражается в его внешнем облике. Daedelus любит одеваться в стиле биржевых брокеров конца XIX века, и время от времени отпускает пышные бакенбарды. Но что касается технологии создания музыки - здесь Альфред «впереди планеты всей». Загадочная «коробка», с которой Daedelus появляется на всех своих лайв-сетах, уже достаточно нашумела в среде музыкального андеграунда - такого инструмента нет больше ни у кого. Он сотрудничал с культовыми лейблами Plug Research, Ninja Tune, Mush, Laboratory Instinct, Big Dada, Distill, Bit Of Heaven, Temporary Whatever, Stones Throw и Warp. С ним охотно записывались Madlib, Scott Herren (aka Prefuse 73), MF Doom, Four Tet и многие другие. Чтобы описать стиль, в котором работает Daedelus, нужно перечислить все существующие направления и выдумать пару новых. Daedelus звучит как все, что мы слышали до сих пор, и одновременно непохоже ни на что другое.
"
"Working from a studio in Santa Monica, California. A young Daedelus began noodling bass clarinet notes, and soon graduated into the covenant of double-bass. After an ill-fated affair pondering classical and jazz, rave paved the way, and a burgeoning record collection fueled Daedelus’ artistic creativity, preparing the path to his first full length release, Invention. Inspired by ‘30s, ‘40s and ‘70s grooves, and defying genres such as downtempo and hip-hop, Daedelus gradually begins to venture into the L.A. afterdark.
The music on Invention combines multiple instruments, including non-traditional ones such as computer printers, toy pianos, and among other bent and mis-used, the Omnichord. Daedelus invites local MC talents Busdriver and Sach to flow over the masterful bonus versions of “Quiet Now” and “Pursed Lips Reply.” Invention unfolds in dynamic ranges of emotion."

OneFloorDown - Unraveled (2011)
Un album foarte neobisnuit in primul rand pntru ca are un sunet excelent insa in acelasi timp practic nici o mediatizare. Wikipedia muzicala : last.fm tace.
Si, in al 2 rand, pentru ca incepe si se termina cu piese live, iar pe tot parcursul plimbarii prin album ramai cu senzatia ca muzica a fost intr-adins creeata sa starneasca polemici privitoare la apartenenta sa intr-un stil muzical sau altul.
Fapt, prea putin important, atunci cand boxele infloresc :)
"While the names Sher and Keith suggest individuality, the two are the ultimate compliment to each other in forming the music and voice of OneFloorDown. As the music from OneFloorDown makes it's way to ground level, you will hear many references to concepts like adoration, that one true love, breathing each others air, climbing into each others soul, and even "another kind of love." OneFloorDown would like for you, the listener to their art, to find that level of love and inspiration in your life.
When you visit OneFloorDown, you will find every lyric, every note of melody, and every beat of rhythm embraces meaning. As you listen to the music of OneFloorDown, you may find "another kind of love" as well as another kind of jazz.

Si, in al 2 rand, pentru ca incepe si se termina cu piese live, iar pe tot parcursul plimbarii prin album ramai cu senzatia ca muzica a fost intr-adins creeata sa starneasca polemici privitoare la apartenenta sa intr-un stil muzical sau altul.
Fapt, prea putin important, atunci cand boxele infloresc :)

Late Night Alumni - Haunted (2011)
"Haunted is LNA's third album, and it is utterly fantastic, as expected. It doesn't quite top Empty Streets, but it certainly bests Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies, Etc... (which was a great album as well). That being said, Haunted is quite different in feel than either of their preceding works, but of the two, it is closer to Empty Streets. Most of the songs have a melancholy note, which is a huge plus in my book; this album oozes emotion and takes you to different places. If you like music with feeling and meaningful lyrics, look no further. Heck, if you like music, look no further."
"Late Night Alumni, comprised of Becky Jean Williams, Finn Bjarnson, John Hancock, and Kaskade, is best known for their 2005 international hit single “Empty Streets” from the album of the same name. Released in the UK by the Ministry of Sound label, Empty Streets garnered a strong underground following, and has become a mainstay on dancefloors and airwaves around the world. Their sound is characterized by an immaculately crafted production style that rides between electronic and organic, tied together with the angelic vocal presence of front-woman Becky Jean Williams lastfm

Shpongle - The God Particle EP (2011)
Deep underground in Switzerland.......in a tunnel 27k's long..engineers and scientists from all over the world have constructed a circle which is an experiment, to find the origin of the Universe by simulating what happened after the BIG Bang.
By firing Protons in opposite directions along the tunnel, they can anaylise the information of the millions of collisions the atoms and molecules create as they collide with each other at almost the speed of light to find a clearer picture of what happened at the beginning of Time.
This information will give scientists a clearer picture of how the Universe was created, searching for what has been known to be called the God Particle. Shpongle, with Benji Vaughan by our side, have simulated the sound of this experiment to the music of Shpongle.
Faster and faster till explosions fill the void, and propel us and the listener to a new dimension in sound. This is a unique piece of electronic music, breaking the barriers ,and pushing forward experimental adult dance music. Speeds ranging from 23 BPM to 173 BPM...hurl the listener into unfamiliar and unconventional sound voyages, where serious endorphic changes happen to the listener, which results in a complete unusual physical and mental mind set...one is never going to be the same or listen to music in the same way ever again.
This is a breakthrough event...particles and atoms neutrons and other sounds result in weird highness and high weirdness...bringing a new exciting bar raising epic from Shpongle. This is not your normal cup of tea, and one will change while listening to this maelstom of beauty and surprise, but one will have to repeat the experiment time and time again to reveal the new exciting levels of far out musical adventures.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it.....I feel it is our most adventurous collage of sound ever.

Orsten - Cutworks (2011)
Albumul de debut "Cutworks", un produs excentric si emotiv care conspira sa te atraga în lumea artistului francez/finlandez, adaugand o noua dimensiune in cunoasterea muzicii "cinematice", fapt determinat si de titlul albumului.
Sampleuri de muzica clasica decupata si lipita din nou, note de hip hop si instrumente traditionale. In principiu nimic nou, insa modul in care Orsten a abordat stilul dat si a manevrat intre starile de vulnerabilitate ( "Fleur Blanche"), teroare (" Meditainment " ), si gratie ( "Adagio Sostenuto"), impresioneaza intr-un mod deosebit de placut.
"Born in Helsinki but now settled in Paris, the romance and drama of Örsten’s residing city is felt deeply through the album. An abstract affair with the soul, ‘Cutworks’ embraces the everyday emotions of joy, fear and serenity with humility and acceptance."

Long Arm - The Branches (2011)
Georgy Kotunov .. compozitor - turntabilist din Russia- cu o experientza mare in scraching si o atractie fatsa de sampleurile cu instrumente acustice "vii".
M-a bucurat foarte mult muzica lui. Armonioasa si plina de seninatate. Surprinzator de frumoasa si calitativa.
oraselul Orenburg a mai castigat azi un simpatizant :)
Long Arm took up music when he was a kid. In music school he studied how to play piano. He was really impressed by a DJ’s perfomance on one of the music channels when he saw it for the first time. It was difficult to get a turntable back then, so Long Arm and his friend started making them from old soviet phonographs/record players and collecting vintage vinyl records. Long Arm devoted all his free time to listening to those records. He spent his university years writing his own tracks, playing in various bands and participating in different projects. After his graduation he began working in Intelligent genre. His lifelong passion for jazz influenced his whole music style.

Phaeleh - Fallen (2010)
Dubstepul, pentru mine, mult timp a insemnat Burial. Si ce nu era Burial putea sa atraga cu 2-3 piese, insa nicidecum nu ma tenta sa scot albumul.
Well .. Phaeleh e o trupa care m-a coplesit cu sunetul sau. Poate prea lounge, poate cu unele note comerciale, insa per total a lasat o impresie placuta. Sumbra si placuta :)
"In 2006, classically trained musician and electronic sound scientist Matt Preston was swept up in the wake of the Dubstep phenomenon. His diverse influences resulted in an equally diverse musical output, ranging from the euphoric heights of Nordic electronica through cinematic breakbeat to the depth charges of Dubstep.
Phaeleh’s unique sound has garnered support from the scene’s leading artists, including Skream, N-Type, Scuba, Distance, Kryptic Minds, Oris Jay, RSD and Jakes to name but a few, as well as radio support on BBC Radio 1, BBC Asian Network, BBC 6 Music and Kiss FM. This has helped Phaeleh to top the sales charts with releases on Surface Tension, Against the Grain & Urban Scrumping as well as future releases on Skream’s Disfigured Dubz, N-Type’s Wheel & Deal Records and label of the moment Black Box."(c)lastfm

grIMP - The Nascent [EP] (2011)
De obicei emotiile inspirate din muzica apar spre finalul ascultarii albumului.
Insa fiecare din noi are o lsita de trupe -excepti- care provoaca stari euforice inca in procesul de downloadare.
Azi o sa sharuiesc una din ele.
Daca ar fi sa ma gandesc la formatia mea preferata din lumea trip-hop/downtempo .. cred ca m-asi opri la Leaf.
Insa nu Leaf mi-a facut dimineata asta sau, mai bine zis, nu Leaf in intregime, ci doar o particica din ei cu numele grImp.
Pana postam muzica pe blog, am reusit sa trec de cateva ori prin EP. Intuitia niciodata nu minte. Fain album(EP) :)
grIMP is a HipHop/Electronic artist from Dallas,TX.He Has Been producing music for over 13 years,and is or has been a part of projects including Leaf,Folium,BioGliphic and Blunt Force Crew.His music ranges from simple hip hop beats for MC’s to more complicated Instrumental hip hop,dnb,and breaks and sometimes even 8-bit.

Asian Dub Foundation - A History Of Now (2011)
Asian Dub Foundation. Album nou. Dnb si Dub cu un ritm electrizant si instrumente neconventionale pentru stilul dat.
Mult metaaal :D si ethno, buna dispozitie si energie.
A History Of Now begin NOW :)
"In a world which seems to change beyond recognition in the space of a heartbeat, Asian Dub Foundation meet the challenge with an electrifying new album. “A History of Now” is ADF in widescreen with a vast array of sonic weapons at their disposal, from the strings of CHI2 to the radical melodies of Nathan “Flutebox” Lee udating and expanding their sound considerably but still staying true to their distinctive genre-smashing spirit.
Lead track “A History of Now” sets the lyrical tone for the album – “Too many ideas running round inside my brain…canʼt tell the difference between my TV, internet or me” and reminds us “You canʼt download the sun”. Fundamentally “A History of Now” is a powered-up meditation on the modern world, asking what kind of people we are becoming (“Urgency / Frequency “ ) and warning us about the dangers of becoming slaves to ever mutating new technology (“Futureproof”).
There is a Japan only tribute to the great city of Tokyo, and also a special appearance by original ADF bassist Dr. Das on “This Land is not for Sale”. Whether we like it or not weʼre ALL living in the History of Now , so who could be a better guide than Asian Dub Foundation …"

Starting out as a drum and bass artist then fusing his own downtempo-lounge style to now making ambient tracks? Whats scary is that Lemongrass can perfect any style he takes on! This albums is no exception to that.

Schiller - Die Einlassmusik 7 (2011)
Schiller - proiectul numit in cinstea poetului german din sec XVIII- cunoscut pentru stilul sau original...uplifing melodic trance.. si care in principiu niciodata nu a reusit sa-mi provoace un interes sau sa impresioneze gusturile mele in muzica.
Am dat peste albumul asta, as usual, intamplator. Fiind unul din f. putinele releasuri aparute in 2011, iar plictiseala prea mare.. fara prea mari dubii a ajuns in playlist.
Prima impresie a fost ca pana ajung la sfarsitul albumului o sa cad in depresie si o sa incep sa-mi sun vrajitorii din oz in cautarea unui remediu..
Lounge/ chill ..si totusi prea sumbru.. melancolic.
Senzatie asemanatoare cu o plimabre dimineata intunecata, dupa afterparty, printr-un parc acoperit de zapada in care timpul si orice forma de viatsa s-a oprit..fara ganduri..fara dorintse..fara destinatie.
Insa dupa 2 piese organismul a deschis portalurile compatibile cu darkwave.. iar ziua de munca si-a incetat dreptul la existenta.
ps
pe vrajitorul din oz..oricum am sa-l sun.. )
"Schiller is one of Germany’s leading electronic artists. The multi-Gold and Platinum-awarded project has been created by electronic musician, producer and composer Christopher von Deylen in the tradition of teutonic sound-pioneers.
Over the last years the Echo-Award winner and Grammy-Nominee performed more than 100 sold-out concerts - highly acclaimed by the audience and media.
Schiller’s albums feature many well-known German and international guest vocalists and musicians such as Colbie Caillat, Lang Lang, Sarah Brightman, Moya Brennan, Kim Sanders, Peter Heppner, Mike Oldfield, Xavier Naidoo, Mila Mar and Tarja Turunen (formerly of Nightwish).
On his live tours, Christopher von Deylen enhances his music with breathtaking visual performances. In August 2006, Schiller appeared as a special guest at the final concert of Depeche Mode’s ‘Playing the Angel Tour’ in Athens." (c)last.fm

Solar Fields – Origin # 01 (2010)
Plimbarea prin labelul descris mai jos a mai adus o surpriza placuta: albumul aparut in decembrie a celor de la Solar Fields. :)
"Origin # 01, is the first chapter in a series of four albums which aim to present Solar Fields' music under a new light. The artist dived into his studio archives and discovered unreleased little gems. A simple idea came along to share with fans and followers this incursion into the life of a contemporary composer.
The tracks on Origin # 01 were created over the course of the last ten years.
At times we'll be tempted to give a date to the music composition because there's a specific feel to it which reminds us of a moment or of an album; at others we're thrown in the pure flow of inspiration and that is timeless.
Magnus Birgersson opens up the audio spectrum and spices up his music with guitars, bass, drums, balalaika, sitar; once again reminding us what a talented multi-instrumentalist he truly is.
Origin # 01, a multi-coloured archive made of ten genuine and intense songs.

At times we'll be tempted to give a date to the music composition because there's a specific feel to it which reminds us of a moment or of an album; at others we're thrown in the pure flow of inspiration and that is timeless.
Magnus Birgersson opens up the audio spectrum and spices up his music with guitars, bass, drums, balalaika, sitar; once again reminding us what a talented multi-instrumentalist he truly is.
Origin # 01, a multi-coloured archive made of ten genuine and intense songs.

Asura - 360 (2010)
Un release de psymbient foarte placut, de la Ultimae Records.
Cu tot respectul pentru Vibrasphere, Sync24, Carbon Based Liform, I Awake, nu prea am postat muzica formatiilor pe care ii reprezinta Ultimae.(singura exceptiea fiind Solar Fields).
Asa ca, mi-am propus sa adaug mai multe elemente de psy in maisonul de silence de aici :) Incepem cu Asura.
"Charles Farewell aka Asura opens two outstanding chapters in his musical odyssey with [ 360 ], a powerful cinematic downtempo album which captures and enhances the essence of the original Asura sound with its slow grooving rhythms, entrancing melodies, deep flowing pads and ethnic instrumentations.
This fourth album from Asura will stand as the coming out of Charles Farewell as an incredible composer of overlaping ambient genres, from ecstatic to chilled, groovy to uplifting, he offers the audience a wide open musical journey with finely chiselled orchestrations and a strong sense of space and timelessness.
Mostly instrumental, the album offers a sublime vocal introduction courtesy of Ayten and discreet voice overs from the artist."

Hidden Orchestra - Night Walks (2010)
Hidden Orchestra(in trecut cunoscuta ca Joe Acheson Quartet), ne invita intr-o calatorie in lumea tobelor vii si a basurilor adanci cu o deep influenta clasica si jazz.
O muzica de stil nou, insa care a pus accentul pe instrumentele traditionale.
Dupa parerea celor de la lastfm, muzica a fost influentata de asa trupe ca Aphex Twin, Debussy, Xploding Plastix, Radiohead, Squarepusher, Madlib и Gene Krupa.
Dupa parerea mea, "moodul" cel mai asemanator ti-l induc cei de la Emancipator :)
“can only be described as a beautiful noise” – BBC Introducing in Scotland (Album of the Month for September)
“a highly emotive, celluloid-inspired journey through one of the greatest films never made” **** – The Skinny Magazine
“a soundscape that truly envelops you” **** – The Sunday Express
“every bit as jaw-dropping as DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing” – The Daily Record
“a gem, a chattering, pulsating collection” **** – Is This Music? Magazine
“these are lullabies primed to pounce when the clock strikes midnight” 7/10 – Clash Magazine
“Stunning stuff” – iDJ
“The stunning debut from Tru Thoughts will blow you away” – XYZ Magazine
