October 1: Actress, Fulgeance, 1000names, Minus, Hijack & Fanas @ M A S C H I N E

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

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.

1000Names – Secondary Fauna

? MINUS / RO

? HIJACK / RO

? FANAS / RO

Atelierul de Productie, 160 Splaiul Unirii St.,

To Have & To Hold – Taster Tape

Monday, March 29th, 2010

Here a quick taster for the upcoming documentary To Have & To Hold, which the Jony Lyle describes as “a ‘musicmentory’ to celebrate the age of vinyl records.”

The film promises enough archive footage, records rooms, music collections, pressing plants, and rare vinyl to satisfy even the most die hard physical music addicts. In addition to its irresistible collectible eye candy, To Have & To Hold, which is scheduled for a 2010 release, features interviews with such notable vinyl aficionados as Questlove, Chuck D, Bobbito Garcia, DJ Amir, Bruce Lundvall, Christian Marclay, and Paul Mawhinney. via.

Paul White & The Purple Brain new album + free mp3: Ancient Treasure

Friday, March 26th, 2010

An inventive showcase of what’s possible when armed with just a sampler, a few studio toys and a fertile imagination, Paul White & The Purple Brain is the intriguing sophomore album from South London producer Paul White – his first for Now-Again. This album will see release in early June.

A collaboration of sorts, the entire record is based around and inspired by the work of little-known Swedish psych-rock guru S.T. Mikael. Heavy on Eastern influences and otherworldly concerns, Mikael’s music ranges from searing electric guitar-led dirges to dreamlike ballads to ghostly atmospheric experiments and has been issued in tiny quantities since the 1990s on the Subliminal Sounds label.

Paul White & The Purple Brain is a remarkably diverse album that defies easy categorization. Which suits him and his “home” label One-Handed Music (in collaboration with whom Now-Again releases this album) just fine. Praised as someone who “embodies all that is good about a new generation of producers” (Dazed & Confused), Paul White has won over fans of left-leaning sounds and interesting hip-hop, including Diplo, Mary Anne Hobbs, Benji B and Gilles Peterson. via.
