Listen to a track from the upcoming Lapalux EP
Stuart Howard aka Lapalux has announced he will be releasing his second EP for Brainfeeder, entitled ‘Some Other Time’. ‘Forgetting And Learning Again’, which is taken from the upcoming EP, sees Howard enlist vocalist Kerry Leatham to inject some much-needed warmth and soul into the post-dubstep world.
Venice Calypso drops debut EP for Senseless
Past KOTJ Radio contributor Venice Calypso has finally dropped his debut solo excursion ‘Trapezoid’ on Senseless Records, home of the ongoing ‘Synesthesia’ series (the first volume of which Venice Calypso contributed to). A slightly darker effort than we’d expect from the funky-infused selection we saw in his mixtape for us, Warsaw-born Sebastian Bartz brings the deep house and rumbling techno to the fore.

Review: Tussle – Tempest
It’s no surprise Alexander Hacke was recruited to remix the opening track of Tussle’s new album, ‘Tempest’. The whole album feels like the culmination of that exciting period in the 70s and 80s when a jet engine and a spanner were considered legitimate musical instruments. And I mean that in a good way.

A Thousand Years predicts the future
I can’t say I’d heard of London producer A Thousand Years before this, but no doubt we’ll be hearing a great deal more from Zeké Africa in the future. If there is one.
Reso releases a free bonus track
Civil Music‘s Reso is an interesting character. Not once have I known what to expect from one of his tracks; will it be downtempo house? Jungle? Grime? Dubstep? Techno, even? Of course, this makes his releases all the more exciting.
Last Japan and Visionist team up for split 12″
Marco Giuliani aka Last Japan (whom you may remember from our humble little podcast series featured to the right) announced today that his next single will be ‘Storm Trooper’ and will sit side-by-side with a new track from Visionist entitled ‘Control This’. The split single will be released on Signal Life.
Stream the Schwarz mix of the new Matmos single
Kid606 once remarked in the title of one of his tracks that “Matmos are the A-Team of electronica”. High praise indeed and he wasn’t wrong. Their new single ‘Very Large Green Triangles’ proves their versatility as not only purveyors of abstract, intricate IDM but also as masters of very appealing techno.
Download a Dub Boy mashup of Schlachthofbronx, Warrior Queen and Mungo’s Hi-Fi
I’m not usually in the habit of posting mashups – there are so many about and generally they lack substance. Every now and again, though, something comes along that I simply can’t ignore. Step forward, Dub Boy.
