Creep. Creep. Creep. Stick to the shadows. Gradually inch forward. Carefully peer around that corner. Try to keep as quiet as the steam rising up from the manhole. This is stealth mode. You’re flying slow and low under the radar. The way this track is moving? That’s the way you need to be. Every movement,… Continue reading Orson- “12:09”
Dubstep progenitor Dwayne Parris-Robinson could’ve put this out on Halloween and it would’ve fit in perfectly. “Lionel’s Dub” effectively captures the sounds of the scientist’s lab from the “Monster Mash.” It burbles like so many flasks and cylinders and beakers. There’s a constant twitching that Parris includes which is mathematically exacting in its constancy. It’s… Continue reading Parris- “Lionel’s Dub”
This is not meant for rest and relaxation. It’s not exactly meant to groove to or rapturously dance along with. Nor is this one intended to nod along to (trying to would almost certainly result in a strained neck muscle). This isn’t the sort of post-dubstep influenced music meant to be played for drives around cityscapes… Continue reading Ikonika- “Oral Suspension”
Considering how Burial releases precious few tracks in a year, if any at all, it’s sort of silly to chart any trends in the enigmatic British producer’s work. But, considering the last dispatch we heard from the post-dubstep auteur was a warm tropical cut, Burial might be inching ever closer to making out and out… Continue reading Top Tracks: Burial- “Rodent”
With her previous “single,” “Runs Reprise,” experimental electronic producer Klein wrung every possible moment of drama and intrigue out of a 55-second runtime. Now, on the recently released five-and-a-half minute “Prologue,” the London-based artist has more time to luxuriate. That’s not to say she’s wasting any of that time mind you. Even the parts of… Continue reading Klein- “Prologue”
It sucks that “the drop” in dubstep/post-dubstep/whatever the hell we’re calling it is so mockable and devalued now because electronic producer Joker is quite possibly the master of “the drop” in the modern era and his drops are above the point of parody. Just peep the drop in “Mad Night,” the single from his forthcoming… Continue reading Joker- “Mad Night”
Achromatic Residue’s “Player One Start,” the opening track to new EP 8-Bit Trap Vol. 1, has exactly zero subtlety to it. It sounds like a malfunctioning copy of the original Tetris being trampled by speed-addled teens during a Purity Ring concert. To say it starts at 11 would be wholly inaccurate. This thing starts at about 1000 and only… Continue reading Achromatic Residue- “Player One Start”
Turn all the way up to 11 if you dig vintage Dizzee Rascal, Nintendo and all things grime.
