Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 30th, 2009
“Havin’ My Baby”, a song with a sped-up, “chipmunked” sample of frenetic, juice-dripping soul running through it, comes to us courtesy of Canadian Casio noodlers Think About Life . Given some of the so-so material on their self-titled album , you get the feeling that the might not realize just how grand and epochal the blend they’ve stumbled onto really is: “Havin’ My Baby” is something like Dear Science mashed up with the Avalanches’ “Since I Left You” , only played fast

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 29th, 2009
The first thing you notice about Sleigh Bells ‘ “Crown on the Ground” is that it is LOUD. Punishingly loud. The treble blares with such intensity that most listeners’ first instinct is to immediately adjust the EQ and turn down the volume– and even then, it hurts a little just to hear it

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 28th, 2009
Cadenza put out a fine balance between more pumping functional club tracks and their more experimental detailed releases and this definitely falls into the first category.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
Dark, revival garage sounds at a 33rpm reduction, from the Bristol-based producer Stasis, complimented with a re-lick on the flip, tweaking the formula.

The dulcet tones of Jamie Woon never fail to please, and some of his best work is backed by the phantasm of electronic music. Subenna does well here
Brother Culture feat Ghetto Priest – Willing & Able – Reggae Roast

Isn’t it great to have a CD of one drop riddims on the stereo, the sunshine streaming through the window and a cold Red Stripe in the hand.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
A pleasingly gratuitous double pack from TRG, Bucharest’s best-loved producer, which sees him truly come alive on this expansive canvas. With eight golden opportunities to hunt down bass music over a battlefield of funky, techno, electro and even disco influences, this EP never feels like it stops to rest, presenting a sense of agitation and impatience to move forward. A robust re-visioning of dubstep, stretched and prodded to its funkier limits

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
Not a lot of information on who Invasion is, but those with a more progressive palate will be fully tuned into the sonic landscape of Shackleton. When I saw the Skull Disco boss at The Big Chill this year I thought Armageddon was upon us; a fearsome bass-caked barrage assaulted the senses.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
One of the highlights from the ‘Hyperdub 5′ compilation, the extra-curricular stalwarts that comprise Darkstar continue to re-assemble their beautifully abstract shapes into patterns that flirt with the very idea of dubstep, but never really take its ethos on, preferring to exist outside. And this wonderfully charming track will delight all who listen; it’s simply a gem. 18-year old Detroit resident and Omar S protégé Kyle Hall goes in deep and jazzy with the remix

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
When away from the noisy carbuncle of the Virus Syndicate, Mrk 1 can often lay down a mean riddim that doesn’t sound like it’s attempting to induce a migraine. Sadly, the Manchester producer is still clearly being booked at too many underage or student raves where pointless mid-range wobble is party currency. I would have expected a head of his experience to be moving his sound in new directions, but this sounds very tired indeed

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
In a past life, Paul Rose, aka Scuba, was probably a pharmacologist or something equally scientific, as his song titles are often clinical descriptions of liquid states, or bizarre experiments with embalming. I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that Mr Body Works, the Gunther geezer, was a fan of his music and regularly got inspiration for injecting penises with plastic from a night at Berghain.
Matt-U – Can’t Wake Up – Boka
Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
If anyone doubted dubstep’s ever expanding reach, then let the sounds of Matt-U from Hungary wipe the taste of Croydon firmly out of your mouth. Still stinking of lacquer from his True Tiger and Red Volume releases, the Budapest resident does something rather fresh for his inaugural Boka plate, utilising discordant melodies rather than standard mid-range grot, to produce a brace of welly smashers; a thoroughly refreshing approach for those hooked on the heavy sound.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
Some tunes really hit you in the soul receptors, and ‘Wa6′ by West Londoner and anti-socialite Harry Craze blows dust off the 45, and moistens the eyeballs. If J Dilla made dubstep, you’d get the same feeling; sweet strings bounce off mood-drenched synths and circulate the warmth.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
Kravitz impresses with a tracky house tool, while perhaps unsurprisingly, Efdemin takes it deeper, with a blissed out, almost Ibizan vocal at the heart of his sensuous tech house.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
After a long hiatus, ’90s tech house hero Aubrey returns. The freaky outer space rhythms on the title track, with its trippy blips and bleeps, and the wired disco techno of ‘Beat The Clock’ both show that not much has changed chez Aubrey

It’s testament to the range of Dan Curtin’s work that he’s still releasing vital house music a good 15 years after his debut.

Posted by Latest Music Headlines on October 27th, 2009
Voorn revisits ’90s US house on ‘Power’. ‘Love Break’ combines heavy drums, subtle disco filters – and echoes of that dreamy production feeling labels like Prescription excelled at – with Blake Baxter’s velvety tones. Meanwhile, the title track sees Voorn choose a topical dubby sound, propelled by a warbling, Derrick May-style bass; lastly, ‘Beat It Up’ surprises, a stripped-back jack track documenting a lewd encounter.
