Dam-Funk - Toeachizown: Fly

Code: [Select]
http://www.mediaf!re.com/?t0nnwjbyzzt


About Vol 2. From the man himself
Quote
Fly is Vol. 2 of the 'digital release' from my new project Toeachizown. The 1st 3 joints on this volume consist of my continued steps into the 'electric-space-funk' style I'm humbled 2 share with U from my mind, yet this time out, with a more 'danceable' vibe 2 it. U know, for the clubs...worldwide! The first 3 tracks “Flying V Ride” (which is a reference 2 the fabled UFO that many have reported seeing in their lifetime), “Candy Dancin’” & “Burn Straight Thru U” co-exist as a 'suite' called “The Move Suite”. Yes, 3 songs that are joined together as 1. This is why the 'drum machine pattern' is the same on these 3 particular songs. “Candy Dancin’” also features a wicked synth solo & vocoder contribution by the 1 and only Mark de Clive-Lowe.

The remaining 3 joints of this volume on this 'digital release': “10 West”, “I Wanna Know” (a vocal) & “Rollin’” represent exactly what the title of this volume is: Fly. They're joints that U can roll 2. Let your hair down 2. Vibe with a lady 2 (or vice-versa), + stay 'fly' 2. I know there's still some fly ladies & gentlemen out there. This Vol. 2 from my Toeachizown project is...4 U.

Walls - Walls



Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?fjzynkldtnz
Quote from: The Quietus
Walls are a duo comprising Alessio Natalizia (Banjo Or Freakout) and Sam Willis of Djs/producers/label owners Allez Allez. They met when Willis was on remixing duties for Natalizia. Their short but densely packed debut situates itself in a sort of war zone somewhere between Techno and the frazzled neo-rock of Animal Collective, or maybe Boards Of Canada and My Bloody Valentine.

Theirs is a combination of Natalizia's buzzing, serrated, treated guitars counterpointed with Willis's synths, in which malevolent backbeats and warmer electronic climes combine. As such they are very much on the outer edges of the Kompakt empire but a very fine addition to it, not least since most of Kompakt's roster are on its outer edges. Opener 'Burnt Sienna' reminds of the first few moments of Faust's first album, a slow-burning act of premeditated analogue arson, which then swirls up into a fuzzy Phoenix of a riff. 'Hang Four''s gnarly backbeat marches in robotic quicktime across a gravel of human skull fragments onto sunnier uplands of melodic guitar reverb. 'A Virus Waits!' is a sub-three minute sustained bout of streptococcus-like gnawing, while 'Soft Cover People' is like some post-apocalypse exchange of terms between the campfire forces of post-rock and the ragged remains of the electronica brigade.

'Strawberry Sect' is slight but something else again, a wispy trail of backward guitar pursued by a champing, scrunching electronic Pacman. 'Gaberdine' is as close to straight as Wall gets, a Technopop jet-black grid reminiscent of Suicide but with gathered electronic moss of its own. Finally, the giddily vertiginous 'Austerlitz Wide Open' sees Walls spin out on a concluding series of customised drones, loops and high-pitched sirens. Largely without vocals, except for the occasional, odd burst of wordless chanting from Natalizia, Walls is a cryptic oddity unto itself, a record made as if solely to defy category or cross-comparisons, all of which fall a little short, including my own. There is the joy. You can't dance to it as such, you can't chill to it, you can't decode it. All you can do is stand, sit or lie back and admire it.

The First Four Years collects their output pre-Rollins.  Everything Went Black is most everything they recorded before Rollins joined, both released and unreleased. As such it often has repeated tracks with different vocalists.

Rules:

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 mediaf!re.com, in multiple parts if the album is over 100mbs. The reason for this is that we know mediaf!re 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.

This is a particularly short album, clocking in at just thirty minutes. Despite its melodic simplicity each song is unique and beautiful in its own right, and the album works harmoniously.

Nikokai - Selected

Quote
This blog tends to deal primarily in UK Garage-derived dance music, but it's certainly been no big secret that as much as I enjoy that stuff, my heart is and perhaps always will yearn for quality music of that undefinable "IDM" nature. In that, May 2010 has been an exceedingly good month for me. First I had Anodyne's latest re-exploring long-forgotten Skam territory, and now Nikakoi comes literally out of nowhere to drop a full 30 tracks of modern IDM / Jazz composition on me, from the Laboratory Instinct people (a label that I only really know from being a home for Daedalus before he got swept up into the Beats blowup he helped foster). I'm like a kid in a candy store.

I stumbled across this release trolling through retail sites, and while I was initially put off by the "Clicks / Glitch" label (that classification invariably conjures up memories of minimal techno and Datach'i, neither of which are very pleasant for me) the gushing Boomkat review (is there any other kind?) namechecked AFX and Autechre. I'm a sucker for anything that sounds like them, and thus I procured it.

Frankly, I think Boomkat got it wrong on this one. From what I can track down about him, Nikakoi is a Georgian film director and composer, and that side of his work definitely shows - the tracks on Selected all share a certain cinematic expanse and grandeur. The music lacks the overt acid techno / hip hop influence of Autechre or AFX, but it's still legitimate IDM of the jazz / ambient varity. Nikokai shares far more with The Black Dog or Plaid than AFX.

There is far too much music here for me to go over track by track, but the soundtrack work of Plaid is a constant point of reference when I listen to Selected, and I think anyone who enjoyed their Heaven's Door soundtrack (my favorite album of 2009!) will really enjoy the riches on display here. The specifics of the music vary  (minimal house on "Cverty2 For May", lush downtempo jazz on "City Lights Tutta2", ambient drone on "Music 2_Piano", mid-period Autechre in "Something Moving in my Liquid", the melodic d'n'b of u-Ziq on "Uuusmine", haunting ambient in "Lulaby for Little GG") but the tone is remarkably consistent for a gargantuan undertaking such as this. A remarkable collection, very highly recommended for fans of more plaintive sorts of electronica.

yeah, that new Menomena is pretty sweet.

I always thought they were alright, but didn't quite get the hype, now this new one is changing my mind. And I'm not even done with the first listen yet (and quietly in a noisy gym at that!) but it's already warranting another couple of listens at proper volume.

Harvestman - In A Dark Tongue

Quote from: Tinymixtapes 4/5
Like embers fading to ash, only to glow again with the slightest breeze, the songs collected on In A Dark Tongue are persistent and vibrant. Harvestman, a project helmed by Neurosis guitarist Steve Von Till, draws a natural luster from heavy psychedelic meanderings and melodic riffs vaguely indebted to folk-rock, but it's the pacing and smoldering dynamics he employs that gives the songs a truly earthy (and Earth-y) feel.

The album -- united by its constantly shifting aesthetics more than any obvious thematic cement -- embraces myriad sonic influences from deep drone, shoegaze and krautrock to traditional folk and bluesy psych-rock. Von Till's musical wanderings in combinations of melody and timbre ultimately spawn a sort of music-as-spirituality mantra, making it's most "metal" attribute its ability to draw images of ancient rites and polytheistic mythology. Though his music is mostly instrumental, Von Till, like OM (whose Al Cisneros plays bass on "The Hawk of Achill"), harvests the trance-inducing power of heavy riffs and adds a heavy dose of blissed-out atmospherics to make the music feel at once innately grounded and otherworldly.

The resonant prog-lite melody that establishes "Eibhli Ghail Chiuin Ni Chearbhail" might prove the album's most direct and accessible moment, but even this track develops a meditative quality through repetition and subtle modal variation. When it dissolves in its final 30 seconds to make way for "Headless Staves of Poets" -- which opens with somber violins and spiderweb-thin guitar tones -- the character of the album as a whole is apparent. Although the two tracks differ wildly, they're bonded by a common motivation to explore not the farthest reaches of sound and structure (though there is plenty sonic exploration to be found), but music as a means of communication beyond the human realm.

Like watching a fire burn itself out, embers fading to ash, smoke trailing off into the sky, there is something ephemeral and elemental about Harvestman's music. It's something that makes categorizing In A Dark Tongue both difficult and irrelevant. Although it's anything but standard in sound or structure, it feels immediately accessible, compelling for its very nature of being.

It's like Baroness and Om had a baby.

Big Apple Rappin': The Early Days of Hip-Hop Culture in New York City 1979-1982



Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?zzzkee0znnh
From Dusted Mag
Quote
I can make no claims to be any kind of expert when it comes to hip-hop. Growing up in rural Arizona, it just wasn’t something I was exposed to outside of the occasional Salt-N- Pepa or LL Cool J video on MTV, unless you count the one kid at my Catholic elementary school who always wore a Malcolm X hat and talked a blue streak about NWA and Public Enemy. Much later on I would find out about Gang Starr and the Wu-Tang Clan and plenty of other things, but I was never really educated about hip-hop in the same way that I imagine people must be when they grow up closer to big cities like New York or Boston or Chicago.

From my vantage point, a release like Big Apple Rappin’ is an invaluable history lesson. The 16 tracks – plus 64 pages of photographs, liner notes and interviews – examine the birth of hip-hop in New York City during a four-year flurry of activity in the late ’70s and early ’80s. Needless to say, this isn’t just another old school compilation with the predictable Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash and Sugar Hill Gang classics. You know you can expect more from a Soul Jazz release, and they really deliver with this one. The compilation doesn’t come from left field in quite the same way as New Star’s Original Style disc or Stones Throw’s similar Third Unheard anthology of hip hop from Connecticut, but there are definitely a ton of songs on here that most people probably haven’t heard before. Aside from a couple of big names like Spoonie Gee and the Cold Crush Brothers, most of the featured artists are pretty obscure: T Ski Valley, Masterdon Committee, The Fly Guys et cetera.

You can really hear the influence of disco on some of these recordings, starting on the very first track with Peter Brown and Patrick Adams’ production for the classic “Spoonin’ Rap.” Another song apes the backing track from Michael Jackson’s “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” and Brother D & The Collective Effort’s ultra-political “How We Gonna Make The Black Nation Rise” is based around a loop of “Got To Be Real” by Cheryl Lynn. Reggae production techniques are all over the place too. “Rapping Dub Style” by General Echo is the most obvious example of this, but there are also some amazing echo effects on “Rock The Beat” by the Jamaica Girls. And Xanadu’s “Sure Shot” has the mighty Joe Gibbs himself behind the board!

Disregarding the aforementioned academic value of this double album, Big Apple Rappin’ is a hell of a lot of fun to listen to from start to finish. And that’s what’s most important, isn’t it? Whether you’re looking for some historical perspective on the emergence of hip hop or just looking to have a good time, there’s a lot to love about this release.

Sleigh Bells has been pounding my ears for the last week and a half, everyone should give that album a listen.


Also, not sure how this album had not come across my screen before but it is really good.

Ignition - Complete Services



Quote
Ignition, featuring Alec MacKaye and Chris Bald (both ex-Faith), Dante Ferrando (Gray Matter) and Chris Thomson (ex-Soul Side) , played their first show in the spring of 1987 at d.c. space in Washington, DC. Ignition played for a couple of years and toured extensively in that time, including a long European trip, making them one of the first Dischord bands to play overseas. Their shows were chaotic and unpredictable, with one ending before the band had finished even a single song after Chris Bald smashed his guitar and amp in a fit of frustration. This is possibly the shortest set ever played by a DC band. Ignition released two albums and several 7"s, all of which were culled onto one CD, "Complete Services," released on Dischord in 1994.

iamamiwhoami (2010)



Code: [Select]
http://www.mediaf!re.com/?0v4lmkvn0jj
Youtube.

Quote
On December 4th, 2009, a video was uploaded to youtube. It was a surreal clip, less than a minute long, submitted by a user known as iamamiwhoami. The clip, titled "Prelude 699130082.451322-5.4.21.3.1.20.9.15.14.1.12" featured various humanoid limbs protruding from trees, soundtracked to electronic music, and concluded with a blonde mud-covered girl lying in the fetal position.

Another video followed. And then another. Each around one minute in length, each soundtracked by (really good) electronica, and each featuring images of nature and birth, and the blonde woman. Six videos were posted before "b", a music video featuring the blonde woman playing the piano, singing, and wistfully looking at the camera, all while being completely wrapped in plastic. "o" soon followed, a six-minute pulsing electropop song that as beautiful as it is haunting.

The videos concluded with a two-part series: "u-1" features a nearly naked man running through distorted woods while a blonde puppet sings a cappella, and "u-2" stars the same man running through a fortress of boxes before eventually dancing his skinny ass off, and subsequently destroying the fort from the inside.

Critical opinion associated the phenomenon with a viral marketing campaign, and rumored suspects ranged from Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga to Lykke Li, The Knife, and Jonna Lee. To date, the identity of iamamiwhoami is still unknown (although most of the evidence, along with public opinion, points to Jonna Lee - the director of "o", identified as Viktor Kumlin, also directed one of Lee's videos).

What is known, however, is that the music of iamamiwhoami is among the best released this year. The brilliantly fresh experimental electronica, chock-full of unintelligible vocoded vocals and bumpin' basslines, is just gorgeous. While the campaign appears to be over, it's doubtful we've heard the last from iamamiwhoami.

The Hundred in the Hands - The Desert EP

http://www.myspace.com/thehundredinthehands
"Tom Tom" (YouTube) -- Probably worth it for this track alone.
Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?mhxd4cz4tym
Quote from: drowned in sound
To use short-hand description for The Hundred In the Hands is to give the impression of them being oh-so-passe; oh great another Brookyln-based boy/girl disco-duo. Sort of ten-a-penny these days aren't they? In fact I reviewed one here just a few weeks ago. Well, let first impressions fool you not. I've already twice made this mistake with THITH. The first time was with debut single 'Dressed In Dresden'. 'No song released in 2009 that starts with angular stabs so reminiscent of 'Banquet' could actually be any good', I thought. I was wrong. The dirty bass throbs, cavernous toms, explosive snares, clicky claves/handclaps and all manner of synth sounds made for a more than satisfying barrage of danceable pop. Vocalist Eleanor Everdell's fine balance of nonchalance and impassioned pleading, meanwhile, was more than just the icing on the cake.

The second time I made this mistake was upon my first listen to 'Building In L.O.V.E', the opening track of the This Desert EP. 'Oh no, not another 'Standing In the Way of Control'-style bassline paired with a hi-hat shuffle'. Idiot. Only in dreams could The Gossip hope to achieve the beauty 'Building In L.O.V.E.' arrives at when the stuttering synth strings and Everdell's aching vocals reach a melodic crescendo together in an ethereal swirl. It's wonderfully affecting stuff, regardless of the bizarreness of lines such as "luxury housing development is falling in love" and the song ends only too quickly and suddenly amidst Jason Friedman's skyscraping guitars, which are reminiscent of those other Brooklynites, The National. Not that THITH need to borrow ideas to forge music of majestic quality.

The EP takes rather a symmetrical form, the first and last tracks of the six being the most dancefloor friendly, the second and fifth the most playful and the middle two the moodiest. EP closer 'It's Only Everything' features Everdell's most extroverted vocal performance, yet after the hollering of the intro the verses succeed in creating a gorgeous blissed out soundscape of whispered vocals and synth washes and alternates between the two passages until they converge for the outro.

THITH stated that this EP was partly 'summertime-gothic'. 'Ghosts' is the only gloomy-ish track on the EP; conveying its gloom through a less-is-more approach, it revolves around repetition of a simple bass figure and beat with intermittent repetition of a descending guitar line, recalling the melodrama of The Cure's 'Love Song' in the process. 'Sleepwalkers' is drenched in the sort aqueous reverb that characterised that song's parent album Disintegration and despite its danceability it is in fact the most organic/rock song on the EP, with mellifluous guitars shimmering and chiming in from all angles. When it seems that THITH might be taking themselves a little too serious there's 'Into In It', their own take on uber-twee electro pop. Everdell's repetition of the songtitle is possessed of the same persuasive allure as Lindstrom collaborator Christabelle, but there's an air of innocence pervading the song. Proof of the range of influences THITH weave into their sound.

The most inventive track is undoubtedly 'Tom Tom'. For a large part of its duration consisting only of synthetic slap-happy percussion and a needling synth lead, the song really takes a turn for the interesting with the burly thrumming sound of an almost atonal arpeggiated synth-bass. The late addition of a low humming synth melody brings a good dose of melancholy to the proceedings as Everdell laments "Could have stayed by you for days, I would forget the world for you." The whole track suddenly dissipates in a bewitching choir of "ooh"-ing vocals which you don't want to end, but that's the one trick that THITH repeat most effectively: leaving you wanting more. With a long player on the way This Desert is a perfect teaser/taster for that album, but more importantly an absolute pleasure in its own right.
