Only the bestd deep detroit style 909 grooves and delay and reverb soaked analogue synth stabs to sooth you into your late night dancing schedule.

Just had to share this one with you quickly! I came across Dapayk Solo’s latest track on Mo’s Ferry, and I was instantly drawn in by it’s loose, jazzy swing and loungey vocals. Joining a catalogue of the more obscure leanings from this imprint house, this one digs a deep groove. You can catch his whole album through the “buy” function on Dapayk’s soundcloud below. Support the funk, much Love ! x

Much has been written about Kyle Hall in recent months, and with good reason. After his debut single on FXHE garnered support from the likes of Theo Parrish and Omar S, the Detroit native’s breakthrough came in the form of his brilliant remix of Darkstar’s “Aidy’s girl is a computer” on Hyperdub last year. Kyle has followed this up with a solid EP on the same label as well as a few on his own, cheekily named Wild Oats (geddit? Hall, Oats? ah nevermind). It is his unconventional, almost naive take on making music that gives one the sense that Kyle has thrown out the template and makes his own rules in the studio. Warm, noodly keys layered on top of drunken drum patterns shows the rest of us that electronic music needn’t always be about perfectly sequenced patterns and rhythms. This loose approach gives his music a somewhat live, DIY feel. Stomping all over the definition of what might be considered UK Funky, Dubstep, Deep House or Techno, Hall’s broken rhythms are a breath of fresh air into the world of pre-packaged beats and throwaway grooves. Oh and did i mention he’s only 18! …continue reading Omar says yeS

A mate of mine sent me this link of some wikid experimental live beat making. Apparently it took 2 weeks of practice and 7 hours of recording to get a good take.

You can buy a mastered copy of the track here if your interested and
you can also check out more of Julian Smith’s videos here.

This style of beat making isn’t particularly new but its always interesting to see someone else’s take on percussion and sampling. Here’s a couple of other videos that sprung to mind when I saw “Techno Jeep”.

I’m not going to dwell on Flying Lotus for too long, as everyone probably already knows just how interesting and varied his productions are and has no doubt seen him live at some point in the last few years, if not I highly recommend checking out his shows.
