TPO1
Obscure experimental electronic act from Japan, the first video is just crazy... then the second shows off their Kraftwerk/Daft Punk'esque melodies.
Big Love to Luna for this <3
Maluca
Diplo produced Merengue type House beats [Glitchy/Up-Beat] from the most recent signee to Mad Decent.
The Beat Club
Belgian New Beat act on Subway Dance... this defines the world ridiculous, silly/retro/awesome
Beef Wellington ft. Swamburger
Not your average Conscious Hip Hop, Wellington has a unique style to his beats, influenced by all your standard stuff like Funk/Jazz, but all the way to House/Breakbeat... sick joints off Eighth Dimension Records.
John Creamer & Stephane K
More Deep & Sexy House... from 2 of the best remixers out there, this takes the original hit by Puretone, elongates it to over double it's length and creates a multi-layered, slowly rising/falling House anthem, cant recommend this enough.
As with most House tracks, Big up Alex W... the Guru of that shittttt
Lulu Mushi
Downtempo from Mush Records... really mellow/sublime, like Mr. Scruff meets Bonobo in the mind of a California native chick.
Almendra
Argentine late 60's/early 70's Rock band, even though the band are amazing... i'm mostly posting because of one man, Luis Alberto Spinetta, one of the most influentual musicians from his country and a total outsider at heart, it's worth checking into Pescado Rabioso, Invisible, Spinetta Jade & at least his earlier solo albums.
Fish Go Deep
Classic Deep & Sexy House track, also highly recommended is the Dub mix of their newest track Final Tide.
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Punjabi Qawwali music... supposedly special music producing emotions of love, fear, desire, repentance, etc. All i know is it has a great tribal rhythm to it.
Supermax
Austrian Disco Funk artist Kurt Hauenstein goes by the alias SUPERMAX and he's pretty damn funky.
The Undergraduates
More Jungle, this time a more atmospheric feel goin' on, but still heavy/dark/tribal, 93 release on Camden Tunes
Bobby McFerrin
Known by most as the guy behind 'dont worry be happy' the man has a LOT more to offer, this perfectly shows off his ability to incorporate beatboxing into original melodious songs.
Stanley Jordan
One of the best guitarists around, noted alongside Hendrix for a good reason & this is such a sick cover.
India + MAW
Since i first heard this it was one of my favorite tracks & probably always will be, seriously smooth jazzy beats... it's funny because the original i see as obnoxious pop, but this mix is smooth like butter, total classic.
Blaque Spurm
Short lived Hip Hop act, only released two 12''s... this one's off Ill Labels, standard affair, totally smooth/94 style.
Tuesday 29 September 2009
Jacqueline Taïeb
Alongside Francoise Hardy, one of the best French 1960's Yé-Yé singers, really cool Garage Rock type track.
Daniel Savio
Had to finally post some Skweee & this guys the best producer around, all the Flogsta Danshall/Harmönia lot are good, but this guy stands out best to me, deep & glitchy hip hop & electro influenced electronic music, proper grooves.
Carl Sagan (Cosmos Remix)
Educational Minimal electronic Mashup with 2 of the science masters.
Big thanks to Oli for this
CDR
If you like Aphex style high pitch sine sounds & childish melodies then you'll probably like this Japanese Breakcore artists stuff too, his albums are all veryyyyyyy different though.
Anorak
Darkside Breakcore from Bristol based producer, straight off Love Love Records free net label
ASC
Atmospheric amen break abusing DnB... heavy drop, but all very spacey & slick, straight from Inperspective Records & one of the best things i bought this year.
Monday 28 September 2009
Ludachrist
One of the best Mashup artists out there, if you like stuff like Girl Talk & Osymyso, this is yer jamz... lots of Crunk/Hip Hop mashed up into glitch Electro stuffz, as well as comedy remixes of meme videos, everything he's done is good.
The Dap-Kings
Funky A$$ Shittttt from a band made up of members from The Soul Providers and The Mighty Imperials released on Kenny Dope's sub-label Kay-Dee Records
Zenopede & Horchata
Downtempo, almost nightmarish Trip-Hop style stuff... very experimental
if anyone has a copy of this album they're willing to upload i'd appreciate it, it's only release was on a cdr that i cant locate.
Johannes Heil
Some more Techno, this time a German producer from BPitch Control... his stuff is again very progressive... but this is way more heavy, yet still nice & dreamy.
Tom & Jerry
The 4 Hero lads under their T&J alias released some of the best Jungle tracks ever, classics like Dancer & Papillon Love Song will never grow tiresome... but this is my personal fave from Scooby's Dreaming
Sachiko M & Toshimaru Nakamura
No-Input music... minimalist experimental electronic, really spacey & atmospheric like deep techno, but much more stripped down, this video also has interviews with both the artists, a great watch.
Constant Deviants
Great NY [as far as i can tell] Hip Hop act with a few 12''s under their belt, everything i've found by em' I've liked... Smooth 90's style
Sunday 27 September 2009
Bazooka
Is it Breakcore... not quite, is it Hardcore Jungle... if it is, it's harder than most, all with ethereal Indian wailing & killer drops.
Monsta Noodle
reaIf you like yer Breakcore irrational, hardcore & cheeky, you'll love this guy... all of Bedtime for Sandman is worth checkin'
Korla Pandit
The Godfather of Exotica, a hypnotic style all wrapped up in an unusual persona... Pandit is definitely a master of his craft.
Mohsen Namjoo
There's a reason wiki lists this guy under so many genres, because he truly encompasses them... Iranian folk, psych, blues, rock, jazz, experimentalism... like Iranian Kraut to a degree... totally experimental, totally awesome.
BIGUP to Soon for thissun'
Kovács Kati
Bigup One Nation Under a Grave for cluing me into this, 70's Hungarian female fronted Rock, with a realllllll groove.
Damu the Fudgemunk + Y Society
Damu is one of the best producers in the game, making beats in the oldskool way using an MPC & a vast amount of crate diggin'... Damu's also in a few projects, most notably his grouping with Insight Y Society, both are equally great.
Sparetime: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FLO3FM60
&
Overtime: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L5IHLHME
are available for free, gotta love artists that do that
Vexkiddy
Knocking Out Numbers, which was an mp3 net release from Cock Rock Disco, was one of my top Breakcore albums of recent years, it's playfully over the top & extreme but without going to an annoying Gabba/Gabber tip to get there... if you love complex beatz, you'll love this.
TRS-80
Kinda Instru-Hip Hop, kinda Trip-Hop... sometimes even a bit Breakbeat... but definitely smooth electronic beats.
Stunt Rock
My favorite SR related project is 'Tomorrow i Am Going To Do it' but none of that stuff is on youtube, regardless it's perfect film sampling 'breakcore' even though i really wouldn't call it that... this though, i would, SR's regular stuff is childish/film sampling/hardcore Breakcore thats as well crafted as it is fun.

The Golden Cups
One of the bigger bands from the Japanese 'Group Sounds' era... this is the best cover of a Hendrix track I've heard, totally fuzzed out & wild, the music was apparently influenced from the glue abuse prominent amongst japateenz at that time due to other drugs being harder to acquire, which would explain the almost psych/noise/breakdown at 1:30 ... love it
Kamuran Akkor
I love this chick, beautiful Turkish folk/pop, it makes me want to live as a gypsy & run away from normal society in a wagon.
Reso
The future sound of Dubstep, intricate & glitchy, from 2:20 onwards it's like an Amiga on steroids... very original stuff off the Heavy Arms ep
DJ Frankus
Take DJ Markys Jorge Ben samplin' hit LK & remove the vocals, then add some amen abuse and speed that shit up, yeahh boii
Agaskodo Teliverek
I think these guys are truly beyond classification, i'd have to invent either indietronica or nonsensecore to try, regardless... fun experimental stuff from ADAADAT
Friday 25 September 2009
Selda Bagcan
Slowly getting the recognition she deserves after a re-issue on Finders Keepers & having been sampled by Mos Def for his new album, Selda's brand of Turkish psych/folk/pop/rock is... awesome
Will Haven
There's a good reason Will Haven are known as both Hardcore & Metal... because they're both and almost at the same time neither, classic.
Squirrel Bait
Theres 3 good reasons to post this song...
1. Steve Albini production
2. Contains members of Slint
3. Pre-emptive of Nirvanas sound by about 9 years

DJ Soulscape
Instrumental Hip-Hop from Seoul, firstly you'll notice how much of a vinyl digger Soulscape obviously is, secondly you'll fall in love with his silky smooth production.
BIG love to Luna for showing me this <3
Dela
Canada have proved themselves time & time again with Hip-Hop, this is no exception to the rule, Roy Ayers samplin' awesomeness.
Las Grecas
A bit of Flamenco Rock from Spain now, these sisters have such an amazing progressive heavy psych sound, LOVE it.
Gomma Workshop
This post is more to plug this guy, than the tune specifically... in saying that this track has a very Selected Ambient Works Vol. II vibe about it [which cant be bad eh']... top experimental act
Coil
My favorite track by this amazing group, eerie suicide related phone message backed with Chris Isaak style guitar and bleeps/clicks, beautiful...
The Three Million Dollar Men
Specials sampling Breakbeat Hardcore white label here from 92, favorite of mine.
Thursday 24 September 2009
Pekka Pohjola
The source of Midnight in a Perfect Worlds intro, intense Jazz Fusion... essential guitar
Sun Dial
Vastly underrated British Psychedelic band & like Tame Impala these are a lot more recent than they sound.
Underground Resistance
Really good 92 Acid Techno from the label of the same name, trippy classic in an 808 State vein...
Manuel Göttsching
Truly mind bending ambient techno/kraut... rave/minimalism... from this former Ash Ra Tempel member
Banda Black Rio
The best thing about listening to Mos Def's new album [which is awesome btw] was getting clued up to these guys... straight up Brazilian Funkkkk
Arto Mwambe
This House is so deep you could drown in it, for fans of MAW style progressive grooves on Brontosaurus records.
Shin Jung Hyun
Shin Jung Hyun was probably Korea's finest guitarist, working with an array of different groups, this isn't his best track, there just aren't too many online, regardless this is a top Funky Psych Jam...
Ghost
Unreal breakcore from UK's Ghost, shows everyone in the game how it's DONE... watch out Snares.
Actress
Hazyville is the perfect name for this album, it is a VERY hazy... sound, pumpin' atmospheric techno from Werk Discs crew.
D.R. Hooker
70's psychedelic awesomeness, like the perfect cross between The Doors & The Velvet Undergroud, add a pinch of brass & a cultish jesus style... voila
Danny Breaks
Pre-emptive to a lot of the dubstep bass abusing era, this track from Danny Breaks [which as the comments say, has a very Oizo sound to it] totally kills.
Tame Impala
Australia's Tame Impala, a psychedelic rock band who's sound is strictly oldskool, 60's style jamz... hard to believe it's new.
