Also check out the New blog I have started over at Tumblr "Future Bass Blog" - http://sinistertaxonomy.tumblr.com/. This new one will be solely focused on music and I will start to use this one more for social commentary (which will be a change!). I will still post music on hear from time to time when it applies to what is being put up or Written. Such as Now.......
Karenn (Blawan + Pariah) - Lime Wash (Barrelled)
Sibian & Faun - I'm Sorry
Visionist - Vixen
Thriftworks - Euphearia *Check out his album 'Hermetic Thriftology' Amazing*
New James Blake EP announced for December.
For all you beat heads out there the lull in James Blakes electronic side of production may seem too long, but dont fear he has just announced a new electronic flavored EP to be released in December.
James Blake Reveils Details Of New Release “Love What Happened Here”R&S announced on Twitter today that the label will issue a new release from James Blake on December 11. (It may or may not be the same release as the previously announced EP.) This release will include three songs: the A-side “Love What Happened Here” and two B-sides, “At Birth” and “Curbside”.

In a previous post I posted some tracks from a up and coming London based artist Billy Doyle; at that time had little to no information about this unknown Post Dubstep / Future Garage artist hailing from the Motherland.
So I went about getting some information..........
I contacted Mr Doyle by email last week and got the scoop. He is a 17 year old London college student that's been making tracks for the last year; and heavy into the Dubstep since 2006 (same as me funny enough) which means he knows the good from the bad "Lets have no more of the Dub and Rape please"!
You can hear from his music, influences from rave culture; break beat; drum and bass; and to a lesser extent jungle while mixing in new (or old depending on how you look at it) minimalist Dubstep and garage elements. This could be explained from the the fact he reported that he is in fact also a DJ and spins tracks old school on the one and twos ranging from Gill Scott-Heron to Koreless.
He has definitely hit a nerve in my head having a similar or complementary style to what I like and the direction I think I would like to move into; I shall be keeping my eye on his soundcloud for up and coming release's in the next couple of months (and so should you!).
A very good friend of mine Mr Grendel Cakes (James Farrel) put me onto this Hecq new album Avenger. This is Bro-step reinvented, get your teeth into the heavy and yet in a way subdued filth that is Hecq. He is on a similar tip to Dead Fader but a darn sight more musical in his heavy industrial bass stylings! For all you children of the filth that live and breath Bro-step (Dub and Rape) this will be like ethereal lounge room music to you; but if your listening to Bro-step then the point mat be lost on you anyway. Not to say having a good old skank to the heavy stuff isn't good for you from time to time but lets at least keep it music and not a DJ tool, but I digress (into hatred for how dubstep has been corrupted, not by Hecq but by the Skrillex's of this world "Do you realise the hair above your ear is gone?!").
This is amazing and you should love it for what it is.......
Mo Music for yo ears. My plan is to leave this blog up all day and just link stuff across to it as I find it, it it should contain continuous updates.
The Weeknd - What you need (Billy Doyle Remix)
Miss Melody & Mobidextrous - Huan *This is a very interesting Chinese take on post dubstep that use's ravey style vocals sung in an ancient Chinese language. The music filmed by Icelandic Director Robert Douglas shows an erie view of the stark urban landscape of Beijing's Central Business District. They describe there sound as Post Dubstep / Chinese pop.....Hmmmm interesting.*
Sully - Trust
*Get your teeth into this*
Ifan Dafydd - No Good
*This is reported to be James Blake's Cousin which would explain the similarity in sound they share; I just can't get enough of this emotionally apt remix of Amy Winehouse's No Good.*
Ifan Dafydd - Miranda
*I also highly recommend this beautiful track being the B side to his first release*
Now for all you Future Garage / Post Dubstep hedonists out there I recommend checking out Billy Doyle. He is a virtually unknown young London producer that is tapping into that fresh emotional sound that we all know and love.
James Blake is at it again, lulling us to ecstasy through his intricate use of sultry tones and harmonically perfect chords with his new EP Enough Thunder set to releaseon October 10th.
The new EP will feature A collaboration called "Fall Creek Boys Choir" written and performed by Blake and American Folk group Bon Iver. This is a beautiful track with
virtually indistinguishable lyrics that just sound so piercing that
even without the accompanying words you will find yourself singing
what you think they are to the tones imprinted on your mind. It features my new favorite instrument a
Cuica, a Brazilian drum with a stick or string inserted trough the
membrane to create a dog or wolf like sound.
It will also feature A cover of a Joni Mitchels song "A Case of you" performed by Blake; and four original tracks. I am eagerly awaiting to
see which direction this master of moods will go next. Are you?!
Tracks:
James Blake & Bon Iver - Fall Creek Boys Choir
James Blake - A Case of You (Joni Mitchell cover)
Klaus - Tusk EP.
Klaus has earned himself quite a reputation in the past 12 months; being compared with the likes of Mount Kimbie and Airhead and his new EP, Tusk does not disappoint. It can only be described as Burial meets James Blake in a fusion of garage drums and cold synths with post dubstep broken bass and minimalism. Let your ears do the listening.
New EP:
Klaus - Tusk
Klaus - Fens
Klaus - Cypher
Klaus - Pim
Assorted new Tracks I dig.
Im not going to describe every track otherwise I will be too bogged down in descriptions.
Synkro - Girl
Koreless - Away VIP
Pangaea - Hex
Phanes - Luky Woman
Balam acab - Welcome
*You must get the album it is amazing, words cannot describe the joy i get from hearing natural sounds intertwined in an electronic symphony of melancholy*
I have set up this blog as it allows me to post a variety of of ideas, concepts, art and music with little hassle in a variety of mediums without the perceived social stigma of constant posting on Facebook where it is oh to public.
So come one and all rejoice in my ramblings: short or long, structured or not, seeped in bias or mystery or just a piece of new music that is melting my ears at the moment.
