February 10, 2012Not an advertised event and despite the snow all stops came out anyhow, Mark Kinchen aka MK (who we recently talked about in regards to Separate Minds – the 1988 EP that was the debut for him, Terrence Parker and Scan 7) delivered in fine form at an intimate gig at the famed Horse & Groom. Pure vibes all night,…
February 9, 2012Proper looking forward to seeing what DrumTalk does this weekend – though not to take away from the rest of the stellar lineup at Plastic People for Saturday night. It’s happening as part of the Huntley & Palmers residency launch, and headlined by Auntie Flo with Esa in attendance and SOPHIE also offering up a set. DrumTalk’s recent edit on Sofrito…
February 7, 2012We launched a new radio show yesterday, myself and Kamikaze going live from Dalston on the great NTS. Only one show deep, you can check it out below, alongside the tracklisting and awkward profile photo (this is why we stay indoors a lot). It’s going out every four weeks, next show 5th of March, get locked. Experimental and mostly electronic…
February 7, 2012Not sure how much you know about Robin The Fog, but the long time Resonance FM mainstay is an incredibly creative and unique force around underground London music and arts scenes. Since first hanging out with him after our guest spot on Sine Of The Times a while back, we’ve bumped in to him at nights and events on the…
February 1, 2012This is something special for Awkward Movements Sessions, as Jimmy Monsta Funk returns to decks once more. An incredible 2 1/2 hour session, one-track recorded live over the weekend in a transcendence of genre definiton. Check the philosophy below, the embodiment of 20 years of playing wax around the world and appreciating music. Big ups! For my latest mix for…
January 31, 2012Pretty incredible move here from Stones Throw in my opinion, making their entire catalogue – present and future – to be available to download for a subscription fee of $10 (US) a month. If there’s one label I’ll continue to check religiously it’s the LA based, Peanut Butter Wolf run Stones Throw Records; who’re constantly years ahead of the game,…
January 30, 2012Raynulds‘ first cover show for the New Year saw him smash it on Sub.fm yesterday. Especially enjoyed the Skull Disco dedication at the end. What an amazing label they were. Unreleased Gremino goodness and a forthcoming NKC joint were also mad highlights, check it out below. via Mixcloud Covering for 7below on www.sub.fm – definitely one of my favourite radio sessions…
January 27, 2012After blowing us away with the planetarium show last week, we didn’t think there was much else to share on Strictly Kev’s new DJ Food album, The Search Engine. Last night, however, we were lucky to be invited down to a new exhibition opening, where Henry Flint was displaying the sketches, concepts and artwork behind the aesthetic of the album,…
January 24, 2012We’ve been following Derrick May interviews and articles since we attended his four hour lecture in Melbourne many years ago (a lot of that time was spent talking about Strings Of Life I remember). ‘The Innovator’ is a proper legend, one of the Belleville Three who continues to shape what happens around us, and everytime he steps in to Phonica he’s a genuinely…
January 21, 2012It’s under a year since we found out about Lapalux via Many Faces Out Of Focus, the EP he dropped in limited cassette form on Pictures Music. We were well impressed from that offering and apparently not the only ones. It’s recently been announced that the 23 year old Essex producer has been picked up by Brainfeeder, the label owned,…
