I’ll be honest, I don’t remember how exactly I came across Womprat, but I am glad I did. Hailing from Sydney, Australia this one man effort impressed me from the first time I heard Airfreight. His tracks have become a regular mainstay in Crookhaven live sets as of late, so those of you who have been out to hear us recently have probably already banged your head to a few of his tracks.
Womprat has been nice enough to provide rClique with an exclusive mix of a few originals on top of a handful of other selections that are equally as impressive as his original material. Be sure to click on over and check out Womprat on SoundCloud or Womprat on MySpace should you feel the need for more.
Today is Earth Day and to celebrate we are spotlighting: CORNFLOWER, the lean green beat machine. Nestled in the northwest corner of the country Cornflower has mastered the essence of rockapella with his fun and energetic live performances. Building an array of soundscapes using foot pedals to loop beats and harmonies, this one man jamband takes elements of hip hop, drum n bass, funk, and whatever else and blends them into an experience that is truly unique amidst the current electronica craze. His website: Cornflowermusic.com is loaded with info, news, links, a podcast, show dates and most importantly his new L.P.
With all the remix competitions going on out there right now, we figured we would dip our fingers in the pot. Southeast Hip Hop crew: Deaf Judges have put together a remix pack for their song “TV Thieves” which you can check out on their myspace player HERE. Deaf Judges are looking to put one lucky remixer/producers track on their forthcoming remix E.P. released on EC ruins records.
On the site you’ll find Deaf Judges producer Cubenza has offered a choice of Ableton Live project packs, as well as traditional stems. The acappella, the original track, the above image and a PDF with more details on rules and prizes are included as well. The deadline is June 5th, HAPPY REMIXING!
Those are the words that dot Simple’s myspace. Accurate? Somewhat…Comedic? I don’t know…but having a significant helping hand in the fresh, new netlabel Two Circles and having released on other labels such as Produkt Schallplatten and PinkSilver, Simple has added a quirkiness and attractiveness to minimal music. A Detroit son, Simple now calls San Francisco his home, and he has teamed up with the likes of Cullen Miller on the label, and included artists such as Doubting Thomas (France), SoulSonic (Lithuania), Lackluster(Finland) and more. Proficient in playing records out, Simple will be leaving those at home as he performs a very special live set in Atlanta. Dub.Minimal.
Here’s a lil snip from Eclectic Methods performance from SXSW to tie back into part 1 of this post. Now I get to share some other really authentic and interesting associates of Eclectic Method, for example NYCWTF a party? a blog? a shirt? a bunch of lulz? actually yes its all that. On April 8th if your gonna be in the area I recommend dropping by this party. Here is the [link] to the facebook event. Continue reading ‘This stuffs made in New York City (part 2)’
Last Saturday rightClique invaded Lenny’s Bar for Bass Rec. 6 It was our first field trip away from The Atlanta Bench, and we had a splendid time. In a sort of fusion between Cerebral Sabbath and Bass Recreation Society the night was kicked off by Dharmatronix . Dtron dropped some massive self produced tunes filled with sporadic, glitch-hopped beats and layered with sultry synths on top of bottomless basslines…
If you know me by now, you probably think that I live, eat, breathe, sleep, repeat minimal. While that may be true, I think it can also be said that I love many other forms of music. Say Disco House? Ok, while that may not be a huge leap in musical boundaries, I think we can all agree that the following journeys through house music get us groovin. SmartBar in Chicago threw a party on the last day of WMC this year with Potty Mouth Music and these recordings are just the icing on the cake for what the party actually was. 7+ hours of funky, disco house to the more techy side of house…all of it wonderful.
Computers have finally earned their place on the stage. It started as most of the hallmarks do, with oppositional force. The front lit face of a laptop player peering into the monitor will never be the same as watching a guitar player with their eyes closed and the awkward yet sublime expressions contorting their face as they pinch notes off the wooden neck, but a guitar will never be able to make the sounds a laptop can.
