Tracklist Explanation:

[track 01] This track is something special! A collaboration between LA based Musician/Composer Bei Bei and UK based Multi-instrumental/Producer Shawn Lee. Vocals by the acclaimed singer Georgia Anne Muldrow. If that’s not enough UK Producer Floating Points did this crazy remix. Enjoy!

[track 02] Another blessing from my man Dorian! But I also gotta give some credits to the talented Amsterdam Based volalist Mar. That man is building a steady reputation these last months(mostly with friend and Producer Full Crate).

[track 03] I got this Gus Gus track from the PI soundtrack after a revisit to the fantastic world of one of my favorite directors; Darren Aronofsky! If your not familiar with PI yet, go and help yourself..

[track 04] Crazy track by multi-talented artist Julien Dyne Producer & Visual Artist. Check out his debut album; Pins & Digits. Good stuff.

[track 05] Great new track based around some haunted bell, with wooden 2step beat from the genius Burial! Benji B dropped this on his 1Xtra show so sorry for voiceover, there isn’t a clean version yet..

[track 06] A nice remix from the Godfathers of Lounge; The Kruder & Dormeister.

[track 07+10] New tracks from the other half of Herald Of Change; Mike Slott A.K.A. Slottkavicsthe. Coming from his long anticipated album LuckyMe. 23 Halfs is a slow-moving number rife with space-noise, warbling bass, and a variety of influences from jazz to R&B. Then Amanallah a Dilla-inspired boom-bap-crunch and ’80s synths track. enjoy!

[track 08] A fantastic track from Floating Points caled Truly of the new Vacuum EP. Truly contrasts with a gradually phasing groove, shifting between electronic minimalism and heavy smudged disco soul like few others out there!

[track 09] Simpely the best Electro/Hiphop crossover of the year!

[track 11] Distance is the immediate dancefloor track, sounding like a face-on collision of Flying Lotus style mid tempo swing beats and the very finest Skwee electronics. It can get a bit overwhelming at times with some high end frequency abuse but in a club situation this will rule.

[track 12] A love song for the mp3 generation, and however indecipherable Aidy’s digitized musings are, a sense of humanity pervades and betrays a very real sense of frustration over having a computer for a surrogate lover.

[track 13] Florence is totally over-the-top orchestral radio pop, so of course, since The XX isn’t over-the-top anything, they strip it all away and rebuild an intensely quiet 2-step/funky anthem with calypso tumbles and trademark whispers.

[track 14] Track from the follow up to the brilliant debut Striking EP which further explores minimalistic funk and passionate soul.

[track 15] The debut track from the collaboration between dance music veteran Armand van Helden and DJ A-Trak. It’s a winner with fresh guitars, synths and drums, effortlessly re-fit for today with some deft control touches by the duo.

[track 16] Closing track by newcomer Dean High.

After that, let me know what you think of it!

Tracklist explanation:

[track: 1 & 11] I first saw the Gaslamp Killer (who got’s his name from the San Diego district Gaslamp) at a Flying Lotus concert last May. That night GK played one of the most explosive, ultra-powerful sets I ever heard (even better that FL) and since then I followed him. Lately he released his EP “My Troubled Mind” and I wanted to share these tracks with you: Intro B and Anything Worse.

[track: 2 & 15] Next is Doran Concept. He also just released an new EP. And I gotta say, even after some years following him he still delivers!

[track: 3] Then the Trueby’s track! Rumours says that DJ Rainer Trueby after being disappeared for years is teaming up with Danilo from Inverse Cinematics to launch the Rainer Trueby project. I cant Wait till that drops! But before we hear anything about it here you have a sample of his pure geniusness . The track called: To know you and is a revised from To Know You Is To Love You by Stevie Wonder & Syreeta. This is pushing house music to another level like only producers as Moodymann or Henrik Schwarz could do.

[track: 4] Next is a nice collaboration between Sarah Ruba (supermodel) and her husband Adam Pavao (multi-intrumentalist) who produced a downbeat electronic Ep from which the song Everything I realy digg.

[track: 5 & 10] Because I’m in to the whole trueby thing I had to post some henrik schwarz mixes. Enjoy Both!

[track: 6] Terrence Parker did this song called Your Love which is still one of my favorite house tracks, although it got a bit boring after a while.

[track: 7] Next is a remix from my man Nosaj Thing who is gaining interest the last few months. Btw, I always had a weak spot for Radiohead anyway!

[track: 8] Then my all time favorite: Moodymann! If you digg, try to get your hand on some of his lp’s he released since 1994 on the KDJ label. It’s pricey but worth it!

[track: 9] Another remix from Erykah, I Know. But it keeps me going, atleast untill the New Amerika 2.0..

[track: 12 & 13] Then some new cats I like: the more known Hudson Mohawke with his new track and The Clonious with his first Ep.

[track: 14] After that a special cat: Dam Funk! probably one of the greatest artist I discovered lately! Soon he will release a 5 Lp long Epos about FUNK. listen to this untill then.

[track: 16] As closing a some what long song: Fila Brazillia’s remix from the Lamp song Cottonwool. Some great drum ‘n Bass!

[track: 17] Last is the Daedelus remix from a Build An Ark song! I really digg the melodramic sounds here.

With this hour of quality music you can expect songs from new names Flying lotus and Dorian Concept but also the more classic stuff like the legendary Aphex Twin or Jazzanova. Tracklist is below but for now enjoy, and let me know what you think of it!

Nine months of blood, sweat and toil by Ghost Robot and UVPH to do this 2-d versoin for Björks wanderland. Directed by Encyclopedia Picutra aka Isiah Saxon and Sean Hellfritsch which website you definitely should check out! here the link. The 3D version of the 7.5 minute 2K epic is released as part of a boxed set complete with 3D glasses. So look out for that. 

In the video Björk makes a spiritual journey, with the wild river depicting the path she takes. At the start she is being helped by a herd of yaks but she is also obstructed by something that grows from out of her back. That ’Painbody Backpack’ seems like a metaphor for all the negative emotions that she want to get rid of at this trip. But what blow’s me away the most is the art direction from Encyclopedia Pictura. The video is a combination of computer generated images and puppetry. The result is a fantastic mountain landscape with a river that seems made of spaghetti. Underway Björk meets many mystical creatures and ultimately she is being swallowed by the river what looks liberating although i’m not sure what her true aim is here. Anyway, check that vid out! And support experimental artists..

Sorry it took so long before a new post came in the series ..
This summer holiday we (myself and two friends) did a little interrail trip from Valencia(spain) to Istanbul(Turkey) and a dozen city in between.. And because we had such a long train ride before us, I made us a nice mix to listen to for when we would stare outside to the beautiful landscape!. Originally I was posting this before we would leave, but I underestimated the time it took to get all things organised. So here it is yet: some ambient soundscapes for your ears; FAR AWAY TRAINS PASSING BY .. enjoy
