painting pictures on silence V2.0 (MP3)

painting pictures on silence painting pictures on silence - mixed by drox In this episode we travel through some minimal dubbed out goodness from berlin via detroit and england for some lush electronic bliss. The captain has been given strict instructions for us to return back to base in the fourth quadrant. After a bumpy takeoff we are crusing with hyper drive on full throttle into the depths. Some of these tracks are taken from some favorite netlabel releases such as the excellent Graceland EP by Norman Fairbanks and the Minor Fading Zero compilation out of Russia on the Leibniz netlabel. playlist 1 10.16 - heiko laux pres - the old school street - i2020 2 Funk 004 (rinse) electric city funk - raiders of the lost arp - plasmek 3 Domina- Marizio’s mix 4 Amuck - Low Res - Thorn Ep 5 Rontgen - O - sahko 6 Hymn Bream - Metamatics - MindMushingGit 7 Phylyps Trak ii - Basic Channel 8 19′50′’ - Ester Brinkmann - 20′ To 2000: July 9 The Visitors - Kirk Degorgio’s Off World - Two Worlds 10 Dream 4 - The Nova Dream Sequence - Interpretations 11 Liquid Gel - Metamatics - MindMushingGit 12 Resonation - Claro intelecto - NEUROFIBRO 13 Graceland - Norman Fairbanks - Graceland EP 14 Let Me Be Me - The Other People Place - Lifestyles of the Laptop Cafe 15 Sun After Rain (Rainy Day) - Sk1e - Minor Fading Zero [LNZ01] 16 Sheherezdae - tons of tones - presented by steve rachmond 17 Signs of inertia - titonton - metamorphic 18 Ellipse - kit clayton - parallel 19 Deep substance - steve stoll - Damn Analog Technology

beautiful technology (MP3)

Another great guest mix by J. Ben Leonard from flood watch music. His dissection of many a hip hop, funk and jazz record and general music blogging in the last little while (or at least since I found his blog anyway) has compelled me to invite him to compile this guest mix. Armed only with the theme beautiful technology this is his contribution… At times I long for the absence of any traces of technology in music, a stark sound-world of unamplified acoustic guitars, pianos, wind instruments, drums. Then I recall the incredible variety of textures that electronic sounds can produce, and when combined with natural, acoustic sounds, the sonic palette expands to infinity. This mix contains elements of my favorite flavors of technology, from the cumbersome the to the streamlined: awkwardly triggered samples, disembodied voices, analog synths, dense harmonic colors, the capturing of an intimate performance, an electric piano leading a crack jazz band. Hope you enjoy. Playlist Mysterious Semblance at the Strand of Nightmares - Tangerine Dream Musicians in Insadong - D.

overland from kabul (MP3)

This is an excellent guest mix from Matt Levinson (dj calico) who edits Cyclic Defrost magazine and hosts Join The Dots, Thursday nights, on FBI 94.5 from (Sydney). "One of my friends got permanent residency on Friday. It shouldn’t be something to celebrate. He was recognised as a refugee from Afganistan three years ago. It’s six years since he saw his family last. It took masses of red tape. But he got it. So it’s a major celebration. Major! Everything else this weekend dropped, replaced by an after dusk feast Auburn-style. And a celebration needs a soundtrack. Musically it's pretty diverse, but there's something that connects the entire mix: tone's dark and gritty; vibe's optimistic." Kinski - Silent Biker Type (Sub Pop) Horsepower Productions - Marseilles Connection (Tempa) Chiapet - Tick Tock (Two Lone Swordsmen R.G.C. Remix) (Phonography) Ides - Limer (Acid Fuckers Unite) Second Protocol - Bass Lick (East West) Jammin - Kinda Funky (Wookie Remix) (Bingo) Pressure feat.

quiet still (MP3)

Sometimes I want to take time out from things for a few moments and my ears become tired from all of the music I feed them and at times they want to be soothed with melodies and fragments of sound rearranged in a pleasing order. This remedy helps me zone out and let my mind relax as much as I can while still being awake. This mix is something to keep the mind active in the twilight hours, or to rejuvinate the headspace to feel fresh and ready for whatever the day or night ahead might surprise you with. Ive included some recordings that blur the lines between scored classical music for film and an excerpt of a excellent beatless composition by dj olive entitled sleep with more information available from the room 40 webstore or buy it from the bleep.com which I highly recommend. Tracklist Opus 3 - Kirk Degiorgio’s Off World Shinsen - Susumu Yokota Gekkoh - Susumu Yokota Sleep - Dj Olive Chao De Estrelas - Baden Powell The Sound of Mu(sic) - The KLF Ralome - Plaid

Genres: ambient, classical, idm, techno

midi in the city - a compilation of Sydney electronica (MP3)

I had the opportunity to visit Sydney as a tourist for the first time recently to play live at the launch of a compilation of Sydney electronica called – midi in the city. It’s a mixtape compiled by the Sculpter and mixed by Simon Mann. There is a diverse array of tracks by artists honing their craft in bedroom studios all over town. The party was a success with a solid turnout and a great vibe. I’ve heard that another party and releases are already in the pipeline. Check it first here and go give the artists props if your buggin to their beats. tracklist _______________________ SomeFreak - Lagos Legs Eleven - Lakeside Recyclotron - Film Music Legs Eleven - Control Alt Fist The Sculpter - Inside The Sculpter - Tube Riding The Sculpter - The Mad Aunty Stalker - Unknowned The Sculpter - Memo Boomstix - Motion Boomstix - Back in the City Swboy - Lick It Remix (Electroid Styles) Swboy - Crazy (Busta Rhymes Dub Remix) Swboy - Subtle Rebuilt Remix Illbot - Shut Me Down Drox- Imperial Eclectic Stalker - Landscapes We’d - Orbit Over Sunrise
