LDFD – “Outtacontrol”

chris — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 06:12:48 +0000

If you’ve got Valentines Day plans, change them, and listen to LDFD play live- if you don’t have V-Day plans, find someone, and bring them to the Lofi with you. The always wonderful Tuesday weekly dance night “Stop Biting” is hosting Justin Ledford along with local musician/producer/DJ stalwarts WD4D, Ill Cosby, DJAO, AC Lewis, and Absolute Madman.

Sinjin Hawke – “Like That”

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 20:55:58 +0000

My problem with dubstep isn’t the music itself, so much as the prejudice surrounding and the lines drawn between the camps. The sooner the camps stop warring over potency, the sooner the dialogue can return to (1) moving bodies, (2) rocking bedrooms, (3) making jeep music, et al. Here’s something exciting from Sinjin Hawke that puts it all together, I think he/she might actually get my point, from what I’ve heard from “The Lights”. This DJ-Producer knows how to mix up a variety into a breath of fresh air. Sinjin Hawke reworks dirty rap with more esoteric and atmospheric elements, producing a more playful environment where vocal loops wind and unwind on cough syrup reels; where footwork percussion rubs against Baltimore antics; it’s an atmosphere that spends less time defining against the Other of capital D dubstep and is all the better because of it. Try “Like That”, sounds like DJ Nate and Mr Collipark getting together for a tea party.

Anonym – “Believe in Love”

A little bit of Motown-style soul in disco form, from the mysterious Anonym– you can find this on Flivvers Volume 1 from Vakant. This is great for taking the edge off from late-night electro sessions with Drexciya and Underground Resistance tearing up the groove.

Ryan Stewart keeps on turning out these free hip-hop style remixes and instrumentals on his SoundCloud. Here he flips Kate Bush around into a musical arabesque of pianos and snares.
