Electronic Music Diary | "Selektida" is one big album. Containing three CDs - better called parts. It is an representation of the last five years of IJO's music experiences and his passion for music in general. It combines moody passages filled with rhode sounds, laid-back friendly chill out-tunes, IDM-ish tunes and clubby moments where that acid melodies bubble again. It is an album, like a music diary with photos and videos.
Netaudio DubTechno Classic | "Gesamtlaufzeit" is a techno journey into icy landscapes and deep atmospheres full of echoes, sonic reflections and floating chords. Produced in 2003 Marko Fürstenberg also known as Surphase this album is not just only a selection of techno tracks. No, it's one of those rare albums, where we glide from one song into the other, experiencing different moods but always feel the flow.
Game Soundtrack | Julian Winters "Rock Art EP" is the official soundtrack for an online game called "Alchemia". His EP combines songs and field recordings. "I hardly can remember all the 'instruments' I used for this music", writes Julian Winter on his website. "I think there were brittle wooden sticks, leaves, stones and all the other things you can find in a good wood!" All together we get a unique soundtrack which takes us on a journey into some underground caves with dwarfes and...
Video | "Seeds" by Candlestickmaker is one of my favorite IDM-albums of the past. His new follow-up called "A Life in a Day" isn't that much melodic, lollypop and colourful and I don't know yet, if I like it. Please taste it yourself on Upitup.
But... The video for the song "Take Me Elsewhere" is just one thing: Incredible!
I can't get the impression out of my head, that Candlestickmaker cooperated here with some one from the demoscene - to be precise icecream-xtruder. If you are a collector as I am, be fast and download the original mpg-file coming along with the album (have a look into the txt-file).

Jahtari Tribute | While publishing our Jahtari-Portrait some days ago, I thought: "Why not making a mixtape with my favorite Jahtari-anthems?" After some digging through the whole back catalogue I finished my studies of the mighty echo chambers of Jahtari. I rolled you a wonderful spliff of smokey Dub Reggae anthems. Take care, Jahtari might blast you away into bits and pieces of colourful 8-Bit-powered reggae music with dubby sounds and a massive bass. Push up ya lighta, for disrupt and his posse!
