So apparently it's ten years to the day since the first Burial LP was released. Fact have done a little thing on it. Really doesn't feel like ten years though. All that thought does is make me feel old, as I remember buying the CD when it first came out. We'd been primed with the couple of EPs before it, but it still dropped like an nuclear bomb. Untrue might be a stronger album, but not by much. I wonder if they'll ever be another Burial LP, and more importantly would it be any good? Could he shake it up enough? As I gotta admit his last few releases have been having less and less of a return to me.

dk2m posted:Woah, you know Malleus? Stumbled on his stuff on Soundcloud, the ritual has been on constant repeat. Track he did with Saule was amazing as well. Yeah Tyler is a really awesome dude and very talented. He's literally blowing the gently caress up right now. Got a gourmet beats USA tour with Joe & Saule in the works and some other extremely exciting things (can't say) in the works as well. So basically he is one to watch. I actually have a test pressing of the Bad Kids EP he did with Saule. Joe Nice put a few in Bump & Grind (silver spring md coffee shop that sells dance singles & more). I think that pressing comes out at the end of the month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMBfiLC-o-U Some other nondubstep bits that I've either picked up, waiting to pickup or have been diggin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI_5lmeqRl8 Heard this one back at the hyperdub anniversary tour, glad to see it's getting pressed https://soundcloud.com/scratchadva/take-it-all-march-16 Berceuse Heroique still dropping bombs https://soundcloud.com/kemal187/bh-026-dj-overdose-sorry-to-disappoint-ob-ignitt-remix drat can't belive Detboi got to do a track with a legend like Golide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3AdfZ_mnSM b0red fucked around with this message at 14:33 on May 16, 2016 |

For those who follow the sound more than I do, if any of you want to spit out what tunes have been hot in the whole Juke/Footwork scene over the past year or two I'd really appreciate it. It's for a thing!

Heard these a ton too, though really, you can probably go through everything on Teklife and go nuts.

It's for a thing! Jlin is okay, but RP Boo's album off Planet Mu for fuckin sure. Taye's release on Hyperdub is okay and the Rashad compilations have some unreleased stuff too. DJ Roc has some good stuff on his soundcloud Traxman and EQ Why just released new stuff (Funk Bomb tracks and Battle at 160) most everything else Teklife has cast off the soul of footwork and only coasts on juke instead IMO.

Hey just wanted to give a big thank you and shout out to Expansion Broadcast for putting out some great bass, dnb and dubstep mixes over the years. I found out about them from someone in this thread (SUBFRIES I think) and have been listening since 2013. The work these guys do is great, tons of fantastic mixes here.

There's others from that group that I'm just totally blanking on right now. Maybe some of the artists on Tri Angle records too? Like Rabit, Boothroyd and Vessel. Actually Roly Porter (formerly of Vex'd) had a cool album out on the label a few months ago, more ambient in style though. Anyway don't know if it fits your criteria but hey might as well throw it out! I know that's only a song each I've linked too, but hopefully that'll at least give you a wee signpost to let you know where you might start digging a bit more on your own.

Yeah, I have stuff by Lotic, M.E.S.H. and Rabit already. Thanks for the other recs. Not sure if it quite qualifies as UK Bass, but Moro has probably been my favorite discovery from my recent binge through modern experimental electronic stuff. Really gritty and polyrhythmic stuff.

Though I was a bit surprised that his album is supposed to be on Hyperdub? After that wee string of releases he had on XL I thought he'd end up there (continuing the Beggars Group link too). At least Hyperdub is quite good at not super limiting their releases. Remember the Burial collab with Massive Attack that came out on Vinyl Factory I think it was? Gone in a blink of an eye! Just keep the drat thing pressed if it'll sell!! Oh and by the way folks, you guys really want to post so we can get onto a new page. Trust me on this. Something word limit breaking is on the horizon.

Yeah Hyperdub are normally good in terms of pressings. I think it's exactly what Burial might need, something different in the mix. I've said before the last EP or two he's had while decent kinda felt a bit like treading water, at least to me. And funnily enough Bleep just announces it on pre-order. Radio Spiricom posted:um besides like pan/codes, janus, tri angle, arca, and sophie/pc music who i think are all pretty obvious some more labels/collectives/artists would be principe, knives, non, naafi, kunq, bala club, staycore, lorenzo senni, elysia crampton, kamixlo, antwood, v1984, j.g. biberkopf, kuedo's assertion of a surrounding presence ep... a lot of the new wave of instrumental grime stuff has a pretty heavy emphasis on sound design, like loom, odeko, silk road assassins, logos, etc etc How could I remember one half of Vex'd and not the other eh? Shame on me. And forgetting about Principe is double shame, as it's such a great and interesting little label from a country that you tend not to associate with cutting edge dance music (sorry Portugal!). The Gas albums on Mille Plateaux are all definitely worth the cash. Oh and the observant among you will notice the thread title change and updated OP. I figured since there's so much kinda crossover now, and the existing House and Techno thread kinda suck with dealing with the cool stuff we might as well talk about it here!

Surprised there wasn't anything on the Youtube library, even searching via genre and mood can be quite handy. I'm geniunely shocked it's not filled with the kind of shite that'd work for you. b0red posted:nice. always amazes me when samples like this come around from back in the day Yeah it's always fun when you can pick out stuff like that. Doesn't happen enough nowadays, but obviously back in the Hardcore days you'd get a lot of sampling of tracks that had just came out like, the week before or whatever! Total mental! One of my favourite recent examples of it was Nubian Mindz from a fantastic roller of a track years ago called Be Allrite. Obviously Nubian Mindz=Alpha Omega so the whole Reinforced thing coming through, with the Manix sample. Or from the original which was a Sterling Void track I think. Greeen Linez also did a track called Cubik Mentality that lifted stuff from (as you can guess) a couple of 808 State tracks.

And speaking of tracks grabbing stuff from the past, Mall Grab's I've Always Liked Grime finally came out on vinyl the other week on DJ Haus' Unknown To The Unknown label after kicking about online for the past couple months with a bit of hype surrounding it. Raiding the Grime scene for sounds for the House scene, so it was an instant grab for me. Going off on slight tangent, this month I've also picked up the great new EP by Norken on Assemble Music. The whole EP is a great collection of minimal/dubby/ambient House. I have to admit I really got as it includes a reissue of his track Fragile, a wonderful slice of dreamy, spacy Techy House with an absolutely heavenly bassline that originally appeared donkeys ago on his album Soul Static Bureau which originally came out on a label I used to love, Hydrogen Dukebox. I'm sure the CD is probably cheap enough second hand nowadays, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's available to download too. Worth it for that track as well as Southern Soul which again is just amazing.

Yeah the Ilian Tape lot have been mining some gold over the past wee while. You nailed it with your comment, obviously the Skee Mask stuff, but especially so with their other artists like Stenny and Andrea where it's got this great Detroit meets UK meets Germany thing that's really working well and it stands out from all the other umpf-umpf heavy crap out there that is the flavour right now in a lot of circles. I think I read the labels from Munich which is definitely a bit of a forgotten city in terms of German dance music, so that probably helps explain things a bit. The recent Stenny EP was a jam! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNYS-KjBoQI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpozO13bAOs

There's been some fantastic releases over the last few weeks. Some of the best that've found their way through my letter box include Steven Julien aka FunkinEven's new LP Fallen out on his own Apron Records. It's an absoluely amazing slab of Techno-Boogie-Funk. Almost split exactly in half, the first disc has some more funky, broken cuts while the second has the more techier and heavier beats. Just realised that description makes it sound pretty forward but no way, they've all got their own groove going on, this isn't any old boring straight ahead business. The only bad thing is the cover, which let down by the horrible parental advisory thing in the corner. I'm guessing it's an ironic thing but really is a shame on such a nice cover. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJhJbl6TkH8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJhJbl6TkH8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_scdeLpkZk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3-YTQyqe8k Making his debut on Rhythm Section we've got Hidden Spheres, who put out that great single on Distant Hawaii not too long ago. A sun drenched collection of House and tropical downtempo beats, definitely grab this EP on what has become one of my favourite labels. One of these days I'll get back down to London and I'll go to their dance as it sounds absolutely fantastic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jls1D_15ZcE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW2a77Kax70 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oSyV9Qmu_4 I also picked up the physical release of Bwana's The Capsule's Pride LP on LuckyMe. Yes it was out months ago as a digital download, but really it was way too good to waste as a digital only thing, so I'm really glad they put it out. It was nice to see someone stretching out and doing what I guess could be called a concept album I suppose. Not really something you get in dance music much. The other good thing about buying this release is it made me remember his great "Baby Let Me Finish" EP on Somethink Sounds, which was a fanatastic label that I wish would come back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nCg3D6tnLk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOe0tQR5Kvg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pSBQqegWjA I ordered Flowdan's debut LP Distaster Piece on Tru Thoughts, though the CD hasn't arrived that yet but from what I've heard so far it'll be very, very, very solid. So looking forward to that. So what other new releases has everyone else been digging recently?

And sometimes the quality wasn't there through the whole thing. But on first listen it's a solid album, and actually pretty focused and consistent at about 40 minutes long. Flowdan's definitely found his niche with that kind of dense, atmospheric beat behind him and hey it works really well with what he does (see Jubei track on Metalheadz he vocalled). Masro on most of the production, though he also ends up on a Kryptic Minds beat and a Commodo one too. I also can't complain at the price, what was it 6-7 quid I think? I'll take that. e: Oh I also picked up A1 Bassline's new EP on his own label. Or A1B I should say since he seems to want to lose at Scrabble now. The track Broken is great swinging beepy tech jam, not on Youtube or Soundcloud, so preview it wherever you get yer records. Scars on the flip is a great swaggering breakbeat number. Nice clear see-through vinyl too. 28 Gun Bad Boy fucked around with this message at 20:39 on Jul 20, 2016 |

28 Gun Bad Boy posted:Yeah man I've actually got that Forever track on one of my wishlists, just here's hoping it's still about when I get paid. I'm digging that Orson Wells EP too, which I never knew about so thanks for that! Just got that grade 10 record in the mail today. Sounds great and the included poster is very nice as usual
