Debruit - Sis Surpriz



Quote
French electronic producer dEbruit takes his moniker from a combination of the French words ‘debris’ (broken glass) and ‘bruit’ (noise), and on the heels of last year’s high-life inspired ‘Spatio Temporel’, this latest release ‘Sis Surpriz’ closes a trilogy of 12” EPs. This time around, the inspiration behind the four tracks collected here comes from Thomas’ recent visit to Turkey, with all manner of sampled live instrumentation bolstering the wonky beat programming and skittering melodic touches. ‘Accorde Don’ introduces the more exotic instrumental elements subtly at first, sending accordian pulses wafting against a bright backing of twisty g-funk synths, cut-up vocoders and the sorts of treacherously shifting rhythmic patterns you’d associate with the likes of My Dry Wet Mess, before ‘Turkish-ish’ unleashes clattering volleys of darbuka drums and ringing snares, the rolling percussion fusing with snakelike analogue synths in a manner that calls to mind a distinctly more g-funk oriented take on Omar Souleyman’s furious arpeggiation. Elsewhere, ‘Lil Zurna’ sees traditional zurna flute melodies being twisted and stretched all over the place amidst a twitchy backing of offstep boom-bap beats and squelching P-funk analogue synth riffs, before ‘Medze’ closes this EP off with a lazy slide out amidst clattering darbuka percussion, sinuous sub-bass drops and smoky-sounding sampled Turkish orchestration, in what’s easily the most dark and moody moment on offer here. An impressive EP from dEbruit that’s well worth checking out – you can get ‘Sis Surpriz’ either as a download, or on 12” vinyl with 3D sleeve art (and accompanying glasses).

Debruit - Let's Post Funk



Quote
Features EXCLUSIVE extra remixes from Reso and Octa Push! Prepare to get your ass fully fondled by Debruit's latest 12" dropping on Civil Music. You know Débruit's steez by now, exceedingly squashed and lazer shaped hiphop instrumentals with more a hint of squiggly G-Funk inspired by everyone from Rodney Jerkins to Bootsy Collins. 'I'm Goin Wit You' features wicked Talkbox/Real vox interplay from Om'Mas Keith inna Cee Lo style over squelchy lead synthlines giving Joker a run for his money while 'Soles Sweat' on the flip rocks up a slamming Miami meets Prince killer with crunked raps from 215TFK & Stray inna Snoop Dogg 'Sensual Seduction' style. Scorchin'!

Debruit - Spatio Temporel



Quote
Multi-coloured drunk-funk from Debruit! The French w*nkster finally drops the vinyl copies of his long-awaited 'Spatio Temporel' EP on Civil Music, rammed to the lugs with irresistible thumb pianos, Afro-house heaters and swaggering streetfunk. The unruly R'n'B bounce of 'K.O. Debout ' uses the distinctive likembé (the small thumb pianos also used by Konono No.1) to great effect over mullered vocals stabs and some of the tightest drums we could imagine, while '149 Dalston Airline' conflates African vocals with white-light electro-soul synths and the exceptional 'Nigeria What' rocks up a 130bpm Afro-house blinder that basically demands your attention! If you need any more persuasion after checking the samples, all copies come with a free pair of 3D gegs and a one way ticket to Lagos (OK, the last bit is BS, but the rest is 100% true!). ACES!

Peverelist - Dance til the Police Come / Fundamentals



Quote
A long overdue meeting between one of the UK's most distinctive dancefloor operators and its foremost label. While the two have evolved simultaneously out of the post-dubstep milieu, they've never officially collaborated until now. A-side, 'Dance Til The Police Come' is techy and raved-up, with smudges of those melancholy synths which defined the killer Hyetal hookup last year on 'The Hum/Rrrr' or the outstanding 'Better Ways Of Living'. Flipside, once 'Fundamentals' fully locks in, it's lights out, coming with unrelenting, febrile subbass pressure akin to Elgato's 'Tonight' and layered with mystical, droning synths and humid cyber junglist atmospheres. Recommended!

Peverelist - Better Ways Of Living / Fighting Without Fighting



Quote
Following the unanimous acclaim for his 'Jarvik Mindstate' LP, Peverelist drops two righteously forward riddims for Punch Drunk - and for our money they're his finest yet. The Bristol ringleader has built his rep on quality, not quantity and these tracks bear testament to his prinicipled and stringently executed approach. 'Better Ways Of Living' nods to the pared down 808 aesthetic of Swamp 81 with a brittle bustling beat scaffold acting like monkey bars for a piped synth organ to twist, scuttle and roll around in, while 'Fighting Without Fighting' continues the rhythmically busy flex with slick dipping edits and bespoke dub measurements applied inna future jungle-hardcore style. His built-from-the-ground-up style and the exquisitely brief yet sprightly synth motif make this one of his very finest tracks to date and a deadly mixing tool to slip with your Ramadanman, Blawan and Joe 12"s. Utterly sick twelve - don't miss.

Peverelist - Idle001



Quote
Fresh from the Punch Drunk crew, the Idle Hands imprint delivers undercover operations from one of Bristol's finest on the label's debut release. We're not at liberty to spill any beans, because we don't actually have any, but an informed guess will probably clear up most queries about this record. The A-side rolls out the heavy dub-swingers vibe in brilliant style, laying pressure on techno-steppers subs and Berlin-influenced chords set at strolling tempo somewhere between techno and dubstep. On the flipside, the unnamed producer takes a different route to the dancefloor with a killer future-dub aesthetic. A tightly chopped and looped reggae-guitar is sequenced into hypnotic techno patterns over luscious subbass and pen-on-glass percussion for one one of the smartest mutations of the dub-tech sound we've heard all year. Heavy-rolling and wickedly funky = a big tip for fans of Appleblim, Peverelist or Ramadanman!

Various / Hotflush - Back and 4th



Quote
Hotflush send us bong-eyed with a double CD collection of forward exclusives and anthems past from their revered stable of artists. The first disc is really unmissable, collating ten previously unreleased exclusives from Boxcutter, Falty DL, Sigha, Sepalcure, Boddika, Roska, dBridge, and more. Sepalcure (aka Machinedrum and Praveen) eases us in with the nuanced narrative of 'Taking You Back' a highly evolved and dreamy 2-step joint in the image of their two magical 12" singles. Next, Boxcutter brings the ruffige on 'LOADtime', built from burly breakbeats softened with his jazzy deftness, before Boddika swaggers out with the future jack of 'Warehouse'. Deeper in, dBridge excels himself on 'Knew You Were The 1' a sumptuous arrangement of midnight keys, soul-sweet vox and fluid riddim minimalism, while Scuba gives the killer jack attack of 'Feel It' and man-of-the-moment Falty DL delivers the magically atmospheric 'Regret' (how many great tunes does this man have?!?!). To the end of the first disc Sigha churns the 'floor with the Techno bulk of 'Fold' next to George Fitzgerald's sub-loaded yet flighty 'We Bilateral' and Roska turns us upside down with the fanciful Footwork of 'Measureless'. On CD2 we're presented with a run of recent classics from Mount Kimbie's 'Sketch on Glass' to Joy Orbison's 'Hyph Mngo', James Blake's remix of 'Maybes' and Pangaea's 'Witness'. Seriously prime gear, highly recommended!!!

Hotflush’s 2011 state of the art & full range compilation covering left field UKG rooted & dub techno infected tunes.

Old Apparatus - Old Apparatus


Code: [Select]
http://www.M/F.com/?3vdpxm7pwk8xpyg
Quote
Dreader-than-dread dubstep abstractions from the much murmured-about Old
Apparatus. Deep Medi have seriously opened the field with this release,
exploring a darkside realm of post-dubstep noise-sculpting/sound design posited
somewhere in the midst of Chasing Voices, Burial and old-style Vex'd. Nobody bar
the label knows who's behind it, but that only amplifies its enigmatic aura. The
A-side builds from a squall of distortion into cataclysmic bassline worship
sounding like Stephen O'Malley jamming with Mala while insectoid percussion
etches skeletal surface patterns and the rhythm unfolds like something from the
Anstam archives. The B-side is weirder still, a multi-sided geometric
construction unstably morphing from ecstatic dubstep noise to Raime-like
halfstep industrial dystopia, with an added welt of blackened distortion. This
is f**king brilliant.

Golden Retriever - s/t



Quote from: Hollow Press
For our first actual update in quite some time, we have Golden Retriever's self-titled debut, a drifting cosmic journey for synthesizers and clarinet released in an edition of only 100 cd-rs by Root Strata in 2009. Golden Retriever is the duo of Matt Carlson and Jonathan Sielaff and for their first release they crafted a gorgeous yet sinister set of tracks that could perhaps best be described as the long-lost alternative soundtrack to Blade Runner. This is music for a midnight hovercar drive through the slums of some seedy, neon filled dystopian metropolis. Synthesizers thrum and undulate, glower and crumble, scattering bleeps and bloops off into the stratosphere like archaic, room sized computers communicating with deep space communes. Sielaff's clarinet soars out mournful and clarion clear, looping and layering into a shifting wash of sound at times, and in other moments exploring the more abstract boundaries of jazz. At other times the duo brings the sound down almost into the realms of minimal sound exploration, high end whispers like intercepted phone frequencies, spattering metallic gurgles, dull, lowing buzzes all weave into spooky, mysterious sonic trips through long forgotten laboratories and empty streets. All told, this self-titled debut is fantastic and unique, an amazing excursion that stands head and shoulders above nearly all of the recent glut of synthesizer albums clogging the airwaves. Definitely not to be missed.

Chrissy Murderbot - Bussin Down EP



Quote
Chrissy Murderbot does the Chicago quickstep onto Planet Mu with some help from DJ Spinn and remixes by Rashad, Atki 2 and Ghosts On Tape. His 'Bussin Down' original built with Spinn should hold it's ground next to the more linear productions from Rashad and the Ghettophiles crew, while 'Braaain' goes for the effect of DJ Roc's 'One Blood' but comes off maybe a little more like Shitmat. Toying with 'The Vibe Is So Right' Atki 2 takes MC Zulu on a swaggering tribalist House vibe with flashes of deep-end jungle, while Rashad & Spinn cut in a razored Footworker and Ghosts On Tape jam out a cut-up Dancehall wounder.

Blawan - Bohla EP



Quote
The R&S renaissance continues with three uniquely lethal tracks from one of the UK's most exciting young producers. Like Untold before him, Blawan respectfully infuses his hardcore swung rhythms with a sound most commonly associated with the label, the good 'ol 303. It forms an integral part of each track, from the chirruping squiggles smudged into the loping swingjack groove of 'Bohla' to the detuned gurgles eating into complex tribal polyrhythms on 'Kaz' or dissolved into the bass-sunken new world jack of 'Lavender'. Aside from sounding fiercely technoid and alien, his use of acid sequences with swung or broken patterns exposes a vital connection between Belgian and UK hardcore dance musics, where tribal febrility meets cybernetic reality in a marriage of exotic futurism.

Lurka - Return / Stabiliser



Quote
Slick sophomore effort from Lurka, operating on some teched-out tribalist tip for Box Clever. A-side 'Return' is like a synthesis of Shackleton's dread drums with the dynamics of Instra:mental and the groove trickery of Ramadanman. 'Stabiliser' is more centripetal; crisp, organic drums dissappear into a vacuum roller primed for those who like their riddims lean, dark and dextrous.

Lone - Echolocations EP



Quote
Does this man bleed MDMA?! Lone brings his £20-pill-strength sound to R&S for a six track session of skin-tingling, face-wiping House music. With a sound redolent of Fabio & Groovrider playing the Hacienda circa '91, 'Echolocations' cannily closes a 20 year circle for R&S, time-splitting us between '91 and '11 with the Funky snares and one-finger keys of 'Coreshine Voodoo' before coming off like a hyper BoC on 'Explorers' and retiring to the chill-out room for a breather on 'Dolphins'. Back in the mod for some, 'Approaching Rainbow' incites a baggy jack in the finest style of 808 State, all hands-in-the-air chord progressions underscored by a subtle Latin-rhythmic House influence. Again, 'Rapid Racer' sounds like some nascent Gerald Simpson production, perched on the cusp of hardcore, House and Bleep, just imagine some lycra clad go-go dancer with fishnets and massive bouffant and you're there, mate! Final tune 'Blossom Quarter' is the one the crowd's been waiting for, even recreating the dizzying feeling of an intense subbass pressure drop through canny use of his signature compressions and really capturing the essence of what made folks then, and now, go for it. Big record, feeling it.

Kryptic Minds - Can't Sleep



Quote
Slick sophomore album from one of Dubstep's darkest units. Since stepping into the 140bpm shadows with 'One Of Us', the duo have almost fully assimilated the scene's characteristics, yet retained clear traces of their D&B DNA. 'Can't Sleep' features thirteen exquisitely engineered tracks, from the uptempo swerve and swagger of 'Just After Sunset' to the sprawling dread vistas of '1000 Lost Cities'. Previous single 'Can't Sleep' is at the core of the album, Alys Be providing their first vocal on a deeply moody halfstep roller and also appearing on the Burial-esque rollidge of opener 'Brief Passing', but the highlights for us have to be the 4/4 driven 'Arcane' with its chillingly dank sound sphere or the 'ardcore-tucked minor key symphonics of 'Alone', one for the sullen bassbin crew! There's a deadly sense of midnight dystopia and urban ennui which is articulated so beautifully through Kryptic's expert sound design and super-taut grasp of halfstep mechanics, which really shouldn't be ignored by fans of Burial, Pangaea, They Live or even Massive Attack.

2562 - Fever



Quote
Dave Husimans cements his reputation as a virtuoso beat breaker with his crucial third album 'Fever'. While previous LPs 'Aerial' and 'Unbalance' carved out a whole section of Dubstep crossover all for himself, with 'Fever' he's largely dropped the tempos in line with the dancefloor's move to Housier climes. It's a case of one step back, two steps forward as he imposes strict parameters for the production: every sound used was sampled from disco records. Of course, once those sounds are isolated, Husimans does whatever the f*ck he wants with them, resulting in a uniquely textured and deftly twysted evolution of sound. From the Latin Rascal-ish stutters of opener 'Winamp Drama' it's clear we're in for a different kind of trip. 'Cheater' comes next with more familiar patterns, but his usually aerodynamic arrangements are replaced with more weight, drums rub and spark off each other and the whole atmosphere is murkier, clouded with basement condensation. Again, with 'Aquatic Family Affair' his beats bristle with a frictional electricity, that scissoring swing syncopation shredding with a ruder clip. At the midway point 'Intermission' comes closest to the beat structure of the records he samples, tucking-up a deadly Boogie swing with very canny snare placements, as heard through squinted ears, while 'Flavour Jam Park' is just classic 2562, an extremely lean and brittle structure that feels like it may topple over at any time, before we roll into the ruffed-up couplet of 'This Is Hardcore' and the jabbing metallic stabs of 'Brasil Deadwalker'. The energy is then cooled and controlled for the crispy swing of 'Final Frenzy' and the agile dip of 'Wasteland,' while the title track pulls off some kinda Theo-meets-Domu-in-zero G stunt. Like the recent Falty DL opus, this guy has found a special balance of soul-tugging swing and technical dexterity which deserves your undivided attentions. Highly Recommended.

Cosmin TRG - A Universal Crush



Quote
Cosmin TRG continues his trajectory into deeper House and Techno grooves on his third release for Rush Hour's Direct Current series. The title track begins with a cascade of strangely tuned strings before becoming consumed by driving 4/4s, while 'Negligee' views Detroit from a distance with zig-zagging bars oscillating between pitched strings and squirming bleeps propelled by thick, padded bottom end. Magnetic Bodies' takes the vibe somewhere more romantic with fluttering synths and cannily uplifting chord progressions alloyed to firm but supple rhythm programming and 'Sirop' elevates the energy levels for a finely filtered construction fusing NYC Garage and Chicago House sensibilities. Ace.

Bnjmn - Plastic World



Quote
Rush Hour's Direct Current series continues apace with the debut of a young UK producer, BNJMN. 'Plastic World' is a double disc entry to his adventurous simulation of early '90s UK electronica, rooted in Chicago's more searching, synthetic strains and ready for the more discerning modern jacker. The uptempo, Urban Tribe vibes of the title track are an anomaly among the mainly mid tempo climes of the brittle and luminescent 'Blocks', the 'floor-flooding subs of 'Wheels In Motion' or the smudged SDC styles of 'Traditions'. Fans of NWAQ or JTC should be checking this very classy debut. Highly Recommended!

Sleep ∞ Over - Casual Diamond



Quote
Utterly enchanting pop music from Austin TX's Sleep ∞ Over, readied with a remix from ethereal electronic auteur, Laurel Halo. That suggestively evocative name belongs to Stefanie Franciotta who formed the group only a year ago. Her first rough demos, made on a handheld recorder with former band members Christa Palazzolo and Sarah Brown, caught the attentions of Night People who released their eponymous debut, with a few of those tracks landing on a 7" for Light Lodge and a new batch for Forest Family (get hunting!). Since then, Stefanie has shed her bandmates and the gently giddy 'Casual Diamond' is her most recent material. Her knowingly Pot-pourried pop recalls the essence of late '80s/early '90s pop, but safely steered with an acknowledgement of 4AD classics, giving her guilty pleasures a poignant innocence which is so much more distinctive than the polyester-saturated soup of lo-fi pop she emerged from. Laurel Halo is the perfect candidate to rework material of this calibre, expanding an already articulate electronic vocabulary with something crossing spatialized 2-step, shoegaze and mid '90s UK electronica like a threadbare quilt sheltering her dreamspace behind the sofa. ANother impressive drop from Hippos in Tanks - Highly recommended!

Micachu & The Shapes And The London Sinfonietta



Quote
Classical crunk, who'd a thunk it? Michachu, that's who. Her and The Shapes collaborated with London Sinfonietta to create 'Chopped & Screwed' live in front of an audience at Kings Place, London in May 2010, providing Rough Trade with their first ever classical release. The concept itself is pretty far flung, merging the disciplines of codeine-laced cough syrup-drankin' early '90s Houston HipHop legend, DJ Screw, with the rarified sound of one of the world's leading contemporary orchestras. But, considering Michachu's background studying at Purcell, Britain's oldest specialist music school, and her idealistic debut album 'Jewellery', produced with the UKs pre-eminent experimentalist, Matthew Herbert, it's not actually all that contrived. While the Sinfonietta ably handled their own instruments, Michachu took the innovative approach of hand making her own instruments to be played by herself and the Shapes, as she explains "Our own instruments sound a bit percussive, a bit like samples, a bit different. When I write songs on a guitar I find my hands falling into the same bar chords all the time, but if you have something new in front of you there are no rules. No one else has ever played one before so you can approach music differently just make it up as you go along". The end product is truly outstanding, and probably total anathema to orthodox classicists, but in all its bewitching dissonance and crooked articulation, a total pleasure to more adventurous ears. Trust us, you've never heard owt quite like it. Highly recommended!

Instra:mental - Resolution 653



Quote
'Resolution 653' is probably one of the most anticipated album's from the UK electronic underground in the last 12 months. It's the culmination of two musical lifetimes spent immersed in Electro, D&B, Techno, House and Bass music, and sounds very much like it. For the past decade the duo of Kid Drama and Al Bleek have released a catalogue of clinically executed dancefloor tricks from their studio (presumably a hermetically sealed bunker in the bowels of London) on labels such as Source Direct's Demonic, and more recently for the Autonomic family of imprints which includes their own Nonplus+ Records, besides Rico DRKSTR's Darkestral Recordings and dBridge's Exit stable. But it's really the last three years which have witnessed a growth spurt in their sound, manifested on this album. Located between 110-140 bpm, these thirteen tracks optimise and intensify a set of memes observed from the darkest corners of the 'floor and the DJ booth. From the galvanized 303 squirms of 'Aggro Acid' to the peerless space of 'Arc', through the twirling melody and stereo-imaged dynamism of 'Love Arp' or the Radiophonic funk of 'Plok', each sound has the signature of master studio craftsmen. In effect they've isolated and honed the digital twitch of OG electro which courses through the veins of so many dance music continuums since the early '80s, and augmented it with a British moodiness which simply can't be faked. Hence, it's highly recommended.

Times New Viking - Dancer Equired (2011)



Ever Falling In Love
Fuck Her Tears

Quote from: Spin
Taking to a proper studio for the first time in five albums, this notoriously hissy Ohio garage gang create their most accessible work yet: 14 melody-thick doses of rock candy crammed into just 30 lightly fuzzed minutes. Without their trademark willful tinniness, it’s all easy to embrace, from the pretty and poppy (“No Room to Live”) to the arty and odd (“Try Harder”) to the upbeat and thrashing (“Fuck Her Tears”). Among those still cranking out shambolic odes to the suburban bored, these reformed shitgazers rule.

Much less dirty and fuzzy sounding, but/and still does good stuff to your ears.

Rules:

The first rule of this thread is you do not mention MF.  I am doing this because we are currently the first hit for the full version of "MF thread" on Google, so y'know, that's bad n' shit.

No hot-linking images or albums. You can re-host images at http://imageshack.us.

Ensure your tags are correct and that you have specified both Artist/Album in your post.

Upload your files in either a .zip or a .rar archive to MF, in multiple parts if the album is over 200mb. The reason for this is that we know MF is safe and efficient and allows multiple downloads. The ads on other sites, such as Sendspace, are known to contain viruses on the page. Get yourself checked out.

Post your link using code tags. It's the # icon above the policeman emoticon. This prevents the links from being traced back to the forums, lowering the chance that the wrong people notice the thread, potentially threatening Jeph with legal action.

Also, please do NOT request albums. This includes requests for re-uploads; if you miss it, try looking for it somewhere else.

Repost the rules at the top of each new page
.

Also hey why hasn't anyone posted the new Holy Ghost! album

The One AM Radio - Heaven Is Attached By A Slender Thread



Quote
THE ONE AM RADIO is a band from New England by way of Los Angeles who make dreamy synth-pop songs about the feeling of being alone at night in a car on a street in a city that never really seems like home, and other modern problems. `Heaven Is Attached by a Slender Thread' was recorded over months of late nights in an apartment in Los Angeles, then mixed by Grammynominated producer Tony Hoffer. The result is a dance record for introverts, the soundtrack to getting lost in a city. Full of irresistibly catchy pop hooks, melancholy lyrics, and pulsing electronics, `Heaven Is Attached by a Slender Thread' promises to be the feel-good bummer of the year
