alright first post here we go, just some cool electronic tunes i've been frothing on for the last few weeks that you should check out. Don't worry there will be other genres to follow. Contact me if you can't find them, cause some of this stuff is hard to come by:
Seba - Return to Forever
This Swedish drum'n'bass maestro has been around for many years releasing beautiful spacey tech'd out d'n'b bliss, on labels like LTJ Bukems Good Looking Records. This, his debut, is filled to the brim with lucious intelligent minimal gems. It really is something else to walk through the city with this swirling around in your headphones. Amazing layers and sweeps, sway the listeners head from one side to the other. This would be magic on a big system. Check out "Blaze and Fade Out" and the world dub futuristic masterpiece "Tomorrow".
Shed - Shedding the Past
WOW, where the hell did this come from! This German producer has been putting out techno on his own label for few years, but this artists album has been released on Ostgut Ton. Filled with stripped back, deep, minimal, dub techno tracks, this long player shows amazing diversity for a techno release, even taking in some masterful booming breaks and two step styled numbers. Sit back and listen to the layers build and build on tracks like "Flat Axe", "Slow Motion Replay"and the explosive "Estrange".
Deadbeat - Roots and Wire
A true purveyor of all things dub techno, with beautiful throbbing echoing synths and basslines. This Canadian native toured here in little ole Sydney just last week. There are a couple of dub reggae tracks that bookend this release with the center being jam packed with gorgeous dubbed out techno. Once again killer layering and amazing restraint is shown to make this easily one of the best dub techno releases in recent memory.
Things to look forward too:
FabricLive 44 - Commix... fuck yeah, this will kill it!
The Prodigy - Invaders Must Die!... will be interesting no matter what it is
MSTRKRFT - Fist of God... lets hope they've got more than three good tracks on this album.
Moby... jsut kidding i'd rather neck myself!!! hahahahha
