M A S C H I N E, electronic sound of 2010, proudly presents:
? ACTRESS / Wrek Discs / UK
Actress’s dubstep aesthetics mingle with rave breaks and micro-house attitude to conjure up a gleefully indefinable journey through one of the more tangential side roads veering off from today’s electronic music.
Actress – Purrple Splazsh
? FULGEANCE / Musique Large / FR
Fulgeance’s music is a perfect blend of huge, synth-laced French Electro and modern Instrumental Hip Hop.
Fulgeance – Haggis
? 1000NAMES / Black Acre / BG
The 1000names duo recently dropped Illuminated Man, one of the most breathtaking and accomplished LPs to come out of the abstract hip hop scene in the last few years on the consistently brilliant Black Acre imprint.
Event organised with the help of the French Institut of Bucharest.

Arenele Romane (Parcul Carol, strada Cutitul de Argint, nr. 26)
Pe 16 aprilie, la Arenele Romane, va avea loc cea de-a doua petrecere de anul acesta marca Arena DNB. Evenimentul va fi gazduit de LOGISTICS, aflat in premiera in Romania si, in acelasi timp, primul artist de la Hospital Records prezent in Bucuresti.
Alaturi de Logistics vor mixa romanii RANCHA, LICH si SUNDANCER. De visuals se vor ocupa AVluv si VEDEM.
Logistics a atras aten?ia in 2004 cu piesa Replay pe care marile nume din scen? (Andy C, Fabio, Grooverider, etc.) au preluat-o aproape imediat în seturile lor. De aici ?i pân? la a semna cu Hospital Records a fost un singur pas, iar in 2006 lanseaza primul album din cariera.
Muzica lui este o combina?ie de liquid funk ?i jungle, devenind astfel un inovator în a lega cele 2 direc?ii în care mergea scena de muzic? de dans. Prin piesele compuse el, artistul a contribuit la crearea sunetului actual din drum and bass, in momentul de fata fiind considerat drept unul din numele care fac istorie în aceast? lume.
Pana in prezent a lansat 3 albume, Now more than ever (2006), Reality Checkpoint (2008) ?i Crash Bang Wallop! (2009) , pentru care a castigat premii precum 1Xtra Best Album. A reusit in doar cativa ani sa isi construiasca propriul stil in miscarea drum and bass, ajungand sa fie foarte apreciat de o armata de fani din intreaga lume si in acelasi timp respectat in randul muzicienilor din scena.
In June 2009, his debut album, “Drift”, put its foot down and took Nosaj Thing to stardom in just a few weeks. With dozens of rave reviews from the specialist press and outrageous sales figures in the Internet’s leading stores, this young producer from Los Angeles showed the entire world his potential with a fistful of tracks of rhythmic electronica, with acoustic echoes and structures resembling hip-hop but keeping a prudent distance from any easy pigeonholing. After remixing Charlotte Gainsbourg, The xx, Radiohead, Flying Lotus and Daedelus, he is now showing off his impressive audiovisual show, in which music, light and colour embark upon a strange relationship of synchrony between the poetic and the abstract.
For whom it might concern, Nosaj Thing will perform with his visual show @ Sonar 2010, 17-19 June, Barcelona, Spain.
He’s got female relatives whose names are like passwords into any jazz and hip hop lover’s utmost respect (hint: last name Coltrane), but that’s not the only reason why Flying Lotus has attracted props like sunshine to sunflowers. Since his two LP’s for Plug Research and Warp, he’s been in-demand as producer, remixer and live performer all over the globe as part of this years Warp 20 events. Check the pulsing hum of simply sick beats, the blissed-out soundtracks of outerspace computer vistas and a cartoonist’s sense of colour, and you can see why everyone wants his tracks. As well as running his Brainfeeder label, which boasts a roster of forward-thinking beat artists like Ras G, Samiyam, and The Gaslamp Killer among others. Let him take you by the ear for a very special guided tour through what makes Brainfeeder tick with this Fireside Chat straight from RBMA 2010 in London.
This week sees the release on Tempa of a new 2×12? set, Now You Know, by Cosmin TRG.
Cosmin, who you probably know best as simply TRG, is one of the more interesting and outward-looking dubstep producers to have come up in the past few years, and recently he’s taken to the sounds of UK funky and mutant house with real gusto. Now You Know finds him showcasing his own unique take on the sound, leading with the ravey shuffle of ‘Twilight Riddim’. Every track on the release sounds fat and fully-realised, with diverse rhythms and squelchy synth textures throughout. Check out clips and buy here.
To celebrate the release, we’re giving away three limited edition Now You Know T-shirts. The eye-catching design is by Stuart Hammersley of Give Up Art, the man responsible for the visual identities of Rinse, FWD>>, Tempa and Apple Pips among others, and co-creator of Bleep’s recent North/South/East/West art+music box set.
To be entered into the draw, simply e-mail your name and the words ‘Cosmin TRG’ to competitions@vinylfactory.co.uk. The winners will be notified on or before February 26.
