Wink Wink 2011 - A bit of a change this year
Vuk:
That Trap Them record is really good, but I can't decide if I like it more than Seizures in Barren Praise and Seance Prime. Chris Maggio's drumming is insane on it, but I feel like Mike Justian was more groovy and well-suited to Seizures. He was so good on the last 108 record too.

Moritz von oswald trio - Horizontal Structures
--- Quote ---Following the almost unanimous praise for their previous studio masterpiece, Moritz Von Oswald (Maurizio/Rhythm & Sound), Max Loderbauer (Nsi./Sun Electric) and Sasu Ripatti (Vladislav Delay) present 'Horizontal Structures', the jazz-suave and rolling x-axis to the kosmische y of 'Vertical Ascent'. The curve of their projections becomes more complex with the addition of Paul St. Hilaire (aka Tikiman) on guitar and ECM artist, Marc Muellbauer's double bass infusing deeply instinctive jazz moves into the cats-cradle of organ, percussion and electronics. There's a more leveled spirit and cruising groove to this album, their deft interactions creating a deeply engrained blue moodiness and playful efficacy whose potential is beautifully rendered in Moritz's mixing desk. As the elements begin to fuse like condensed gas particles in the bell jar sphere of 'Structure One' its clear to hear the group's evolution as the groove subliminally coalesces with a looseness that wasn't there before, Tiki's Afro-lilting guitar swirling about like fragrant hashish smoke and Muellbauer's eyes-shut bass adding daubs of melodic colouration. 'Structure 2' is more urgent and soundtrack-y, melody stripped back while the rhythm section ripples away with infinite Krautrock essence, before 'Structure 3' reintroduces the dub with moonboot skank rhythm hinging on crisp snare punctuations and offset chords in the dreamiest headspace. The 20 minute 'Structure 4' is perhaps the craftiest, Moritz the mixing board illusionist deftly weaving the acoustic and electronic, the synthetic and the real with a sleight of hand that makes this music at once electro-acoustic jazz and dub concrète, yet with the fundamental grace and glide of deep techno. Highly recommended!

Quantec - Imaginary Flight
--- Quote ---**Transparent Vinyl**Four tracks of plush Dub House on handstamped transparent vinyl. We could have sworn Quantec had released on MoM before, but aside from his Aaron Carl remix this is his 1st solo 12" for the label. No major change to his style, just thick, dreamy House rhythms rendered in spacious, minimalist dub style. Ace.**Transparent Vinyl**Four tracks of plush Dub House on handstamped transparent vinyl.

Yo! Majesty – Futuristically Speaking...Never Be Afraid (2008)
The rappers on this album are two big black Southern Christian lesbians. Their live shows are manic - sharing three microphones for the two of them, they often rap topless - and their after-shows are even better; me and a friend crashed the backstage, and were rewarded with some beer and a litre of vodka. Nice. So, which bad-asses have they got to produce their fantastic debut album? Yep, two nerdy middle-aged English white guys. A stroke of utter brilliance.

That's something I can't wait to get off of work and download. You've got me on board.

My friend and I wanted to start a Rocky themed band called Yo! Adrian a few years ago. We heard about this group but still wanted to do it. But it turned out we were too lazy.
