Review: Brook Line “Paradoxe” EP

Jun 142016

When you start the day by having to actually review your posts and decide to actually move them to the trash instead of publishing them (and not because you aren’t happy with the write up but with the music itself) you have to admit it’s becoming increasingly harder to find music you consider is worthy of writting about. Thankfully, there’s always some new (or newly discovered) producer out there who ends up saving the day and today it was Brook Line‘s turn to do so. An artist never heard or talked about before on here, Brook Line hails from France and produces a mix of Techno and Electro/Electronica which seems to be winning more and more points in our book lately. Out on Mouton Noir Records (back in February), this is Brook Line‘s first EP and definitely sets the standard high for what’s to come next from Parisian producer. Check it out! Continue reading »

Review: F.O.O.L – Showdown

Electro, Reviews, Tunes Comments

Jun 072016

The summer is officially here and what better way to get it under way than with some brand new F.O.O.L music? It had been a while since we heard anything new from the Swedish producer, leading us to think that F.O.O.L might be coming to an end but boy aren’t we happy to be wrong? “Showdown” was out just yesterday on Monstercat and despite it’s more summery feel and funkier vibe it definitely is the kind of track one would expect by F.O.O.L. Classic F.O.O.L melodies and sound, simply dressed up more for the occassion (being no other than the start of the summer). Maybe more reminiscent of French Electro acts like Daft Punk and Justice at points (but then again who isn’t?) F.O.O.L has shifted from the darker and overall melancholic feel to more “airy” and uplifting ones in “Showdown” and it actually works great in terms of giving a fresh tone to the track. Still though it remains an instantly recognisable F.O.O.L track and all those who love the Swedish artist’s previous music should enjoy this one too. Continue reading »

Review: Andreas Rund “Gemini” EP

Electro, Electronica, Reviews Comments

May 272016

Andreas Rund is a name we only came accross very recently (as in about a couple of weeks ago) and istantly fell in love with his deep and dark music. Taking a closer and more careful look of course we realised the Czech Republic producer wasn’t as “new” as we initially thought. Formerly know as Atrey, the artist has gone through a complete transformation (this isn’t just a cheap and quick paintjob) and it’s definitely a very interesing one too. Released via Owl Vision‘s imprint Comorbid Records, “Gemini” is Andreas Rund‘s first EP under his new alias. Three original tracks moving somewhere between dark Electronica, House and even darker Techno with a clean, deep yet heavy sound this is definitely a debut that sets the bar pretty high for Andreas Rund and can be enjoyed both in a club with some early morning “burnout” sessions or at home. We will definitely be keeping an eye and ear out for Andreas Rund in the future but for now we’re just going to leave you check out his debut EP “Gemini”. Continue reading »

Review: Perturbator “Uncanny Valley” LP

Electro, Electronica, Indie Dance, Synthwave Comments

May 242016

When it comes to artists who constantly keep impressing with their work, whether it’s the music, videos or overall “packaging” of their music and presence, Perturbator has been at the very top (together with a few others) for a while now. The Frenchman isn’t only a frontrunner of the Dark Synthwave “neon apocalypse” we’ve been going through lately but one of those artists who have lead the assault for a while now. His fourth album “Uncanny Valey” was out on Blood Music a few weeks ago (and not in 2112 A.D as the rumours had it) and besides the impressive packaging (vinyls, CDs, bonus material and lots of cool artwork) which is guaranteed to earn some extra points it’s the actual music itself that makes it such a complete album.

Proxy – Mad Dog 10,000 (Official Video)

Electro, Electronica, Videos Comments

May 182016

Spicing things up a bit today by throwing some audio-visual action into the mix and taking you a few months back. Russia’s Proxy is a name those of you into the dark and hard side of Electro and Techno should be well familiar with by now and frankly he shoudn’t need any introductions by now. And when he teams up with Sen Dog (of legendary rappers Cypress Hill) you know the result has to be some seriously badass and crazy tunage, which is the case with “Mad Dog 10,000”, out a few months ago on Sotto Voce. And if you’re thinking “this sounds familiar” it’s because you’ve probably already heard the instrumental version of the track which has been going around for a while already, titled “10,000”, one of Proxy’s most classic and one a personal favorite of mine. Now take that and add the top class rapping by Sen Dog (no surprise here) and a dark video that captures and translates perfectly the insane and intense atmosphere of the track and there you have it, it’s a “mad dog on the loose” indeed. So please do yourselves a favor and check this rabid piece out.
