Para – “Motion dub” (A Quiet Bump Netlabel)

Brigitte — Sun, 26 Dec 2010 14:33:09 +0000

Peaceful Dub | It's always fascinating how you can create so much with just some ingredients. For his vision of Dub Italian musician Para used just organs, delay echoes a warm subbass and some percussion. Together he offers us a beautiful 5-track EP filled up with melodic slow-motion-groovers. A joint venture into the dubby realms of the echobox.

Para "Slow Dub" MP3
Para "The Dubbers" MP3
Para "Component" MP3

A Quiet Bump cares about quality. Para, too. Slowly he builds up a relaxed mood, uses all the dub trickery to hypnotise us. Unhasty with ease his tunes let their magnetic field work. Get lost in "Stop motion", swim in the bass pool of "Component" and smile while listening to "slow dub". My favorite, by the way...

Sardinia Bass Legalize – “Timeless” (A Quiet Bump)

MartinWisniowski — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 13:26:20 +0000

Dub-Reggae Pop | To be honest... I do not know much about the "A Quite Bump" Netlabel from Italy, but this could change. By coincidence this mini-album "Timeless" entered my ears and successfully took the brain - with dub and pop!

Sardinia Bass Legalize - "What Can I Do For Africa" (MP3)
Sardinia Bass Legalize - "Timeless Version" (MP3)

Although I am not that much into reggae, I like dub a lot. And this release here got a certain quality, especially with the vocals. The charismatic MC sings about Africa, peace, god, faith and love. The sound of the music is clean and charming, a little bit rusty, warm and also a bit of French niceness shines through here and there. All that makes a classical dub-record. Play it in lounges and you will make friends. I promise!

This release contains also a remix, much more blurred and stateless than the dub orientated tracks. What I would love to have is a pure instrumental version of the track "What can I do for Africa". It plays in the same league like "The Modernist", "Rockers Hi-Fi" and deep soundsystem stuff. Who knows, next time the Sardinia Bass Legalize will try something like "DJ Krush" meets "Donna Regina". Won't they??

DJ Mix – “Aqual(o)unge 4″ (Machtdose)

Brigitte — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 06:34:17 +0000

Underwater Ambient Mix | Listening to Aqual(o)unge 4 is like swimming through a coral reef. The sunrays falls into the water and enlighten the colourful submarine world. Everything seems to float here a little slowlier. The colours of the plants overwhelm you when sunlight touches the leaves or make the dandruffs of fishes glimmer. That's what comes to mind while listening to the music mix from Roland of Machtdose called "Aqual(o)unge 4".

Roland from Machtdose - "Aqual(o)unge 4" (MP3)

Without no doubt: Roland from Machtdose has a wonderful taste when it comes to music. More fascinating are his skills to find those wonderful nuggets in the huge pond of creative commons music. Even though he says about himself not being a dj, this blend of dubby techno, lush electronica and bright ambient speaks different.

Simply a wonderful selection while swimming through the reefes of netaudio.

aleksi virta – “..meets torsti” (Monotonik Netlabel)

Brigitte — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 05:40:31 +0000

Universal Downbeat Trip | Oh my god! Grab this amazing space funk release from the shelfes of Monotonik. With it you get smooth running downbeats, a funky bag full of organs and some of that reggae dub flavor you like so much. This smoked out space joint will make you smile, forget what you was working on, just take it and leave to the dancefloor.

aleksi virta - "o tema de viagem especial" (MP3)
aleksi virta - "whirlwind pistols dub" (MP3)

I don't know why, but I like voice samples in music tracks, babbling some weird sentences like "Are you rrready to accept my domination?!?". And aleksi virta does so, too. He found some sources talking about the universe, space men, whatever... Just listen to "outer edge intro", you'll hear what I mean.

Together with the melodic grooves, the offbeat rhythmics in tracks like "whirlwind pistols dub" or the bossa nova-inspired happy-grooves in "o tema de viagem especial" you get a wonderful release. This will be my favorite in the downbeat genre for a while!

A damn cool space trip into the world of melodic downbeats...

PS: Thanks to our writer Martin aka 020200 for the hint...

Tapes – “Compuriddims EP” (Jahtari Netlabel)

mo. — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 21:57:48 +0000

Analogue Basslines on Asteroids | Jahtari - one of our favorite providers of bass-driven music - peeps through the holes of old cassettes delivered by Tapes and smiles. They just released one of their rarely released free EPs. This time it's an artist called Tapes who loves the sound of old analogue tape recorders and connects his desire for warm sounds with some futuristic computer sounds. Welcome to the world of Compuriddims.

Tapes "Ticker Tape" (MP3)

Tapes "Skankless Tascam" (MP3)

The Jahtarians love old computer sounds from the 8-Bit-Era and subsonic basslines. On this release you can enjoy some nicely edited space sounds crawling through your stereo field while Tapes basslines dig your garden upside down. Laid back riddims for your next round of Space Invaders or Asteroids!

PHVSR – “Bassment” (modularfield Netlabel)

mo. — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 22:02:02 +0000

Minimal TechHouse | modularfield is the rebirth of DCC Records from Cologne/Germany. "Bassment" is the first release to kick off the renamend netlabel. And PHVSR sets immediately the course of this techno spaceship: Groovy Minimal Techno. And PHVSR is definetely a good choice because you got some tricky sounds and rhythmic experiments with with this EP.

If you enjoy melodic and kicking Techno somewhere inbetween TechHouse and Minimal Techno than give PHVSR a listen. Check out the marvellous rhythmic change at the end of "schnittgrößen". Or enjoy how a techno-ravesignal turns out into some sort of field recording taken in the tube. "Metro" is tricky and enthusiastic. And than comes "percuss" a trancy groover with even more frenetic raise-your-hands-into-the-sky-potential. Let loose!

No Fillers on this EP. I really enjoy every track. So thumbs up for modularfield!

mo. — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 05:57:00 +0000

Techno Netaudio DJ-Mix | We like to call him Godfather of Netaudio-Mixing because Dirk Murschall aka [in]anace was the first DJ who consequently mixed free music he discovered on the web.

This is the mix for your next nightdrive on the highway.

During the last years he managed to mix a lot of different coloured netaudio-mixes from experimental journeys to 4-to-the-floor-driven sets pushing your legs and making you sweaty. Don't miss "Repetitive Luxury" if you like solid and groovy Techno to House music.

Various – “Octopus Two” (Fresh Poulp Records)

Christian Grasse — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:08:14 +0000

Versatile Label-Compilation | In 2004, the French eclectic electronic music netlabel Fresh Poulp Records released its first compilation "Octopus One". Four years and 28 releases later "Octopus Two" offers a musical summary of what Fresh Poulp is about. Guests and members of the Fresh Poulp family present various genres and styles like Dub, Electronica, Chiptune, Breakcore and HipHop. A Fresh Poulp odyssey.

Just like Fresh Poulps debut-release "Octopus One", the second part of the Octopus Compilation gathers two sides.

On Side A "Guests" you can find tracks by guest artists, label's friends or some casual collaborators. Some of the pieces might give us an idea of future Fresh Poulp artists. 26 year old Cyril Guillory for example, who is also known as Aquilone (he has already put out an album at muertepop). His Electronica-Shoegazer-Pop sounds very promising and "Chess Wall" is one of the highlights of the "Octopus Two" compilation.

Side B, the "Family"-side, gives an overview of artists that have already released some works on Fresh Poulp Records. Pix for example, whose releases have also been mentioned in some 2008 netaudio highlights here at phlow-magazine, contributed a new piece to the compilation. His lovely Electronica-Downtempo-Hiphop mix is allways a good treat. But there are many more Fresh Poulp veterans on "Octopus Two" - pieR, Guitoud and Yarkouy for example, who present their distinct electronica-dub styles.

So, there is a lot to look forward to in 2009. Fresh Poulp Records should be on the watchlist.

Echo_TM – “Dub Culture” (Afterbeat Netlabel)

mo. — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 12:36:55 +0000

Melodic Dub | With his "Dub Culture"-Single Echo_TM provides Offbeat-Lovers with a real groovy and dubby anthem. While the bassline rolls warm on the floor, melodic vocoder-vocals grab your attention. In germany, we call those intense and pop-orientated tunes an "Ohrwurm", which means hard-translated: worm in the ear. It's difficult to get rid off an "Ohrwurm"-Tune, because you discover yourself whistling and humming the melody again and again... Echo_TM knows how to produce such melodies...

Echo_TM - "Dub Culture" (MP3)

"Dub Culture" is a classic single with an intro and two remixes. The title-track itself is just great material to remix and both version "T" and "M" are a welcome offer to let the Ohrwurm crawl back into your ears.

A great "Ohrwurm" for late summer afternoons where warm sunrays warm our skin.

Dubosmium – Green Element (Fresh Poulp Records)

Christian Grasse — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 03:34:31 +0000

Overdubbing Dub | Dub is usually connected to reggae music und therefore associated with a typical sound and sunny moods. The moroccan musician MLY, who is releasing his work under the name Dubosmium, has recently put out an EP that draws quite a different picture. From atmospheric ambient soundscapes to hard electronic drum 'n' bass elements, The "Green Element" EP creates its own world of dub music.

Dubosmium - "Istandub (Supermoog)" (MP3)
(MP3)
Dubosmium - "Overdub Da Dub (Yarkouy)" (MP3)
Dubosmium - "7Heavens" (MP3)

"Green Element" is partly a review of Dubosmiums earlier release "Horiozontal plane polar Dub", but it also features three new tracks, that give us a little impression of his forthcoming longplayer, that will be released later in 2008.

The first track ("7Heavens") is very atmospheric in its sound and it features an ever-present oriental touch, that is highlighted through vocals by Said Jaha. The next two tracks are quite similar in it's sound and make it a lot easier to find obvious connections to dub music. But still, the songs feature a strong ambient element. The last five tracks from the "Green Element" EP are remixes by other Fresh Poulp artists like Rafiralfiro, Xena Supermoog, Silent Bells, Duck and Yarkouy that range from ambient tracks ("Tuvadelic Odyssey") to hard electro-dub with drum 'n' bass elements ("IstanDub").

All in all the "Green Element" EP is a different and interesting approach towards dub music. To me it's still warm in it's mood but at the same time dark and deep. So, it seems to be perfect for the dark nights of the upcoming summertime.

Volfoniq and Disrupt and Bo Marley – “L’Anchoïade” (Les Cristaux Liquident)

mo. — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 03:09:00 +0000

Sunny Dub Reggae | Last year, to be precise in June 2007, Volfoniq, disrupt and Bo Marley met at the french festival "Dub en sauce". Spontaneously they teamed up, grabbed some bottles of red wine, enjoyed excellent french food and produced some relaxed sunny dub reggae tunes for us. "Savoir vivre, you know what I'm sayin!?!"

While disrupt enjoys putting some good old 8-bit-sounds into his tunes, Bo Marley know how to play their instruments. Together with Volfoniq they complete their sound and while they enjoyed the sun last year down at the côte d'azur at Montpelier, we smile now while listening to the melodic reggae anthems they composed for us. Get ready for some brazzling-mad-deep basslines with live instruments and a melodic "Schunkel"-flavour.
