Hiatus - Change Up EP

For unknown reason i've been trying to write about this EP for quite some time now, not really sure what kept me off it all this time. Cyrus Shahrad (Hiatus) must be one the most exciting arising stars on the electronic scene. His style needs to be described as a chillwave electronic with sometimes engrossing beats, sometimes sharp, sometimes obscure, but almost every time exceptional. Vocals are another of his strong points and that stands to originals aswell as to the remixes.

Clams Casino - Instrumentals

Clams Casino is the memorable pseudonym of New Jersey resident Mike Volpe, who in the last few months has shot from relative obscurity to production sensation thanks to a handful of blistering tracks. Edging into the limelight after passing tunes to Soulja Boy and Bay Area superstar Lil B, his originality has resonated with more than just rap fans.

Stumbleine - Ghosting

The Stumbleine mix got me driven into his music so I can't help myself and have to post his amazing "Ghosting" album. It's really hard to pick a favourite out of these beauties, but I think in my personal chart "Cassette" and mesmerizing "Be Tru" would be relatively high.

Amon Tobin - ISAM

Amon Tobin strikes back with his new album, streaming all of it via his website for the massive sound pleasure.
It’s a departure from the jazz-infused broken beats that he became famous for, but it retains and showcases his meticulous sound-design chops - melodies, crunchy bits, and ambient atmosphere.
It's definitely not easy music, but really worth listening to and of course, long-time fans will be delighted.

On Create Digital Music you can find exclusive writeup about the album, with tons of information and even making-of videos.

The album can be purchased and listened to via AMONTOBIN.COM

Burial, Four Tet & Thom Yorke - Ego/Mirror

Heavily anticipated collaboration between Will Bevan (Burial) and Kieran Hebden (Four Tet), accomanied by Radiohead's frontman, Thom Yorke. The two tracks were pressed on a highly-limited (300 copies) vinyl released by Four Tet's Text Records. It's not a mystery nor a surprise that the whole stock was sold out in just under an hour.

Side A: Ego
The track opens with a bassline typical for Burial's tracks (at first, you can even mistake it with his "Raver" tune), then Hebden's melodic arrangements kick in, inevitable inviting the third musketeer to complete the charm. Yorke's croon creates a truly warm center amidst the blend, giving the track a whole new dynamic and rhythmic. It is rather rare that the collaboration between great artists stays faithul to all the styles involved, yet this track delivers just that. Strange percussive tweaks and odd keyboard lines characteristic for Four Tet ride and fall all the way through the track, just to the point where a warming piano kicks in, accompanied by Burial's shreded vocal sampling, creating a rather beautiful coda for the 6 minutes journey.

Side B: Mirror
Mirror sounds more like a Burial's solo try on Yorke's vocal's, bringing to your mind and ears his previous genuine releases.
