One of my favorite albums in the last few years was Hybrid Mind’s Mountains from 2013. I fell off their recent output through no fault of their own, but I’m really excited about the impending release of their new work, Elements. As such, they’ve released a video for the single Brighter Day featuring vocalist Charlotte […]

TunesOTD – A-Sides – Quart Sector Five
Several months ago I wrote about DJ A-Sides’ 25th anniversary album series, Quart. The project plan was to release five separate EPs each encompassing a different style of drum & bass. Four of the five releases are available now and if you didn’t listen to me the last time I wrote about Quart then you […]
TOTD – Chris.SU – The Arrow
I was struggling this morning so I decided to start digging for tunes that might wake me the fuck up. It was quite fortuitous then that Chris.SU’s new EP, Solar Eclipse, arrived when it did. Lots of big tunes on the EP but the standout, to me, is The Arrow. Techy, heavy, and mean. Exactly […]
TOTD – Redraft & HP Ritch – Bubble Bootleg
Yep, we’re still here and we’re still listening to music. Things are complicated and sometimes blogging comes in last on the to-do list of life. My Tune of the Day comes direct from Man City native and tune promoter extraordinaire, James M. and his Aluminium Shiny Shin Side Shack Out Music label (say that three […]
TOTD – Exposure – Delicate Lives
I’ve been living under a neurofunk rock for a few months. My musical preferences seem to ebb and flow with the changing of the tides and lately I’ve been on a more melancholy kick. Because of that I nearly missed out on Bristol-based Exposure’s debut release, Delicate Lives feat Sula Mae/Sacrifice, on his own A […]
TOTD – Mako – The Shot Off
Sometimes time and life conspire against one another. You start focusing on one, then miss the other or it just slips by in greater and greater increments. In any case, we’re still here and it’s about time I caught up on some new tunes. Even though it’s 11 days old, it’s brand new in my […]
TOTD – Alaska & Paradox – Sesi Mirage
Music is therapy. I use it to get back into the right frame of mind when my brainwaves aren’t syncing properly. Thankfully, our bros at Warm Communications are releasing two new tunes from Alaska and Paradox Sesi Mirage/Nairah (WARM039) and my brain is thankful today. Sesi Mirage is an amazing, and modern, turn of atmospheric […]
TOTD – Adam F – Circles (dRamatic & dbAudio Bootleg V2)
Yea, I know I’ve been ‘away’ lately. Just trying to get out of my own head the last few months and start enjoying the world again. Anyway, enough about that mess…here’s a freebie bootleg of Adam F’s seminal tune Circles done by the duo of dRamatic & dbAudio. Classic vibes. [h/t to DnB Dojo
TOTD – Majical Cloudz – Downtown
I have a new earworm and it’s a take off (but not a cover) of Petula Clark’s classic “Downtown” by two dudes calling themselves Majical Cloudz. Beyond their ridiculous name, the song is pretty snazzy.
TOTD – Kachina – Heisenberg
I’m a sucker for a big bassline and a well timed sample. Kachina’s Heisenberg (on the brand new Affectionate Grooves label) has managed to scratched both of those itches making it my Tune of the Day. The entire UK Garage-influenced, Heisenberg EP will be available on the NextGen Records store soon enough. You can hear […]
