Teen Daze
Teen Daze! Why haven’t I heard of Teen Daze before? Why? Why? Why? Don’t judge the post by the picture though, it’s not stoner-wave. Don’t worry, I will try and not use the “C” word in this post. I mean it kinda is, but not really. [Video: Teen Daze - Shine On, You Crazy White...
Konnichiwa
From New York, arrives Konnichiwa in all its quirky electronic glory. Consisting of Kaela Noel and D.V. Caputo, there is something about their obsession with the oriental that fascinates me. The lilt in the girl vocals remind me of early 1960s Hong Kong cantonese opera songs from black and white films of that era. Throw...
Pale Sketcher
Not just some metal guy gone soft, Justin K Broadrick is first and foremost an experimental genius. His credentials as guitarist of grindcore pioneers Napalm Death and founder of harsh industrial / IDM / metal band Godflesh only form a small part of his wide-ranging soundscape palate. I remembered being in an experimental screamy noise...
Jacob 2-2
Jacob 2-2 is a Brooklyn-based producer of electronic music who’ve done remixes for hip-hop outfit Dalek (Ipecac records) and Brooklyn synth pop hotties Sensual Harrassment. He’s got a new ep out. It’s sounds like quirky electronica to me.
Gold Panda
Quirky electronica and hip hop for the painfully esoteric. Derwin is the a one man experimental project Gold Panda from Essex, UK revealing to you, my dear friend, the wonders of recycled forgotten sounds into a colorful landscape. Very much the complete opposite of Ratatat, and not too disimilar from my one time ex-stalkee Jacob...
Soul Litchfield (King Britt)
“Soul Litchfield is a new experimental beats project by King Britt. Playing with rhythm and texture is the vibe to tripped out instrumental platters. Headnod Acrobatics Volume 1 is the first in a series of beat driven experiments on the Saturn Never Sleeps Label.” [Soul Litchfield - Dice Toss]
Jonny White Featuring My Favorite Robot
My Favorite Robot has teamed up with Jonny White for this dark electronica piece, Desensitize. The track is a cold, slow, brooding number with a sampled sound near the beginning that sounds very much like a metal lift door opening and shutting recorded in Joy Division’s track, Insight, from their Unknown Pleasures record. From the...
Solvent
Yeah robots can dance but imagine a robot with deep emotions. That is what Jason Amm aka Solvent sounds like. Making analog synth-pop with such finely crafted melodies and a twee, electro-pop sensibility. Catchy and complexed at the same time. Loss For Words, the first Single from Subject to Shift will be out on Ghostly...
Nocturnal Sunshine, Maya Jane Coles
Maya Jane Coles of She Is Danger has revealed a secret called Nocturnal Sunshine, an experimental side project dabbling in her signature tech house / dub and electronica combo. I’m liking the deep, chilled and minimal groove. Really fresh and tight. Sometimes its nice to move away from typical “bangers”and appreciate tracks with more substance...
The Diogenes Club
Oh my god. I love love love this!!The Diogenes Club premiere their video for the latest EP entitled 979, scheduled for release on 22nd February 2010. All at once, you’re immediately immersed into this breathtaking electronica beat with breathy vocals and as one Youtube member pointed out, the track has that B-Pitch Control vibe about...
She Is Danger – Hurt You
What did we tell you? Just last month we featured She Is Danger after randomly stumbling upon their myspace site by chance. We know we’ve hit gold. When you think about dubstep, you don’t really think about women behind the decks / laptops, making the music. You usually think about them at the front, trying...
