DUBSTEP !!!! : WE LOVE DUBSTEP Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music which has its roots in London 's early 2000s UK garage scene. The genre's name was coined by Ammunition Promotions. Musically, dubstep is distinguished by its dark mood, sparse rhythms, and emphasis on bass . Dubstep's early roots are in the more experimental releases of UK garage producers, seeking to incorporate elements of dub reggae into the South London -based 2-step subgenre. [ edit ] Rhythm Dubstep rhythms are usually syncopated , and often shuffled or incorporating triplets . In an Invisible Jukebox interview with The Wire , dubstep artist and label owner Kode9 commented on a DJ Mark One track, observing that listeners "have internalized the double-time rhythm" and the "track is so empty it makes [the listener] nervous, and you almost fill in the double time yourself, physically, to compensate". [10] [ edit ] Bass drops and rewinds Many dubstep tracks incorporate one or more "bass drops," a characteristic inherited from drum and bass .
Kriptofonema Via Chicago Pt. 2 Let's talk about Post-Rock; Coined by music critic Simon Reynolds in 1994, the term post-rock was initially used as a means to describe music which used typical rock instruments to make very non-rock music. It's a meaningfully ambiguous term that can be used to describe everything from Mogwai, to Slint, to Godspeed You Black Emperor. At it's best post-rock is used to describe those groups who had a penchant for deconstructing typical rock forms, while still keeping one foot in the genre (see The For Carnation, Him, or Do Make Say Think). While there were many great post-rock scenes, none were more vibrant and exciting than Chicago's. Tortoise - Gamera/Cliff Dweller Society Ep (1995, Duophonic) If you were to choose one band to be the centre-piece of the Chicago post-rock scene, Tortoise would certainly be the unanimous choice. The Sea and Cake - Nassau (1995, Thrill Jockey) Tortoise - TNT (1998, Thrill Jockey)For most people, Millions Now Living is the definitive Tortoise record.
untitled February 2005 Well, Im back after a 2 day vacation that resembled a tumbling fall down the mortal coil. Day's off from work tend to fuck me up a litte. I let my self oversleep and do nothing productive, wake up at wierd times then I don't sleep when i should. What happends is I get to that point where I should sleep, and I don't do anything, because "I'm about to go to sleep, I need go to sleep". Then when I manage to get to sleep, I only get like 3 hours or less, I got 45 mins yesterday. The second one is still highly suspect, Sounds like its not mix very well as an album, but no "details" got released about what it was leaked from. Today I picked up 3 new Cd's one Is actually not used , or old .. wow .. I had to re-pick up Autechre's Confield, my least favorite, but seemingly highly popular album. I picked up a Cd with the most interesting Blurb ever, I can be rather outspoken about how much I think Boards of Canada are overrated, and the newest album Geogaddi, was in my opinion kinda boring.

THRILL JOCKEY CELEBRATES 15 YEARS WITH BOX SET Fifteen years ago, Thrill Jockey Records was founded on the Lower East Side of New York City. In other words, it was 1992, so Thrill Jockey did as many new labels of those days did and released a number of 7" singles, with now-familiar names like Tortoise and Freakwater, and some now-less-familiar early Thrillers like Sugarshock and Gorilla. In the fifteen years since 1992, the 7" singles have been fewer and farther between, but with some definite gems from time to time. Brokeback made its debut with a fine delight of a single called Returns to the Orange Grove. The Lonesome Organist bended minds with his 7" and its pop-up deluxe cover, and The National Trust made it happen with a 7" of their own too. Now Thrill Jockey is looking back to that tradition for a way to celebrate fifteen years of making records for our favorite bands. The Sea and Cake covered "Spider's House" by Califone from their most recent album, Roots and Crowns. I can't wait to hear Byrne covering the Fiery Furnaces.
Midnight Juggernauts – Nine Lives: un trayazo dance para delirar (además es contagioso) | sololobueno.com “Nine Lives”, de Midnight Juggernauts, ha terminado por dejarme totalmente KO, rendido sin remedio ante tanto poderío. Yo, pobre iluso, he tratado por todos los medios de no mancillar lo impoluto, pero al final ha sido imposible, después de varios días sin poder dejar de escuchar este auténtico puñetazo electrónico, capaz de poner en órbita tu mandíbula y todo tu cuerpo, a las primeras de cambio. No quería escribir nada sobre el tema y profanar estas páginas que tan fanáticamente profesan el rock alternativo como única religión, pero ya veis, o mejor dicho ya podéis escucharlo (más abajo), que este “Nine Lives” no tiene nada que ver con la música sobre la que aquí solemos sermonear. Se nos coló un son pagano que ha venido a tentarnos deliciosamente al pecado y no seré yo el que se niegue a morder de la apetitosa manzana: Escucha Midnight Juggernauts – Nine Lives (hazlo con cascos, por favor) Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando...
Cagedream The World in Perforated Lines Buscando un nombre Para la segunda grabación de la Exploding Star Orchestra el cornetista Rob Mazurek (Chicago Underground) cuenta con la colaboración del veterano trompetista free Bill Dixon (Cecil Taylor, Archie Shepp), además de con una formación en la que se puede encontrar a algunos de los músicos más interesantes de la escena de Chicago. El repertorio de este directo aparece estructurado a partir de tres largas piezas: "Entrances One" y "Entrances Two" de Dixon, entre las que aparece intercalada "Constellations For Innerlight Projections", homenaje de Mazurek al veterano trompetista e invitado especial. Estilísticamente la grabación transita por los caminos del avant-garde. En su camino deja muestras de un fuerte carácter melódico (especialmente en el inicio de cada una de las composiciones, aunque no únicamente), que mutando de un modo sumamente natural, hace desembocar las composiciones en amplios espacios improvisatorios casi individuales, en los que predomina el silencio.
