Techno & Electronica Mix Q3/2021

Tom

Another round up for all things electronica released between July & September with the odd exception. I must admit whether it’s my ears or age the pounding techno I used to enjoy is finding less and less favour. Instead I am erring towards the more melodic stuff such as electro with the odd indie dance track (no, not the stuff us old gits used to enjoy years ago) thrown in for good measure. That said Techno God Robert Hood will always get a listen regardless. Don’t expect seamless mixing but do expect some great tunes. Enjoy! Full Track Listing: Biesmans … Continue reading Techno & Electronica Mix Q3/2021

Luby Sparks – Somewhere (Robin Guthrie Remix)

Tom

I must admit that the original version of Somewhere by Tokyo based Luby Sparks, which was released last month, did not do much for these ears. However I noticed it now has been given a make over by the Cocteau Twins Robin Guthrie so I delved in. Guthrie reduces the epic guitar sound of the original, concentrating on the vocals turning the song to into a blissful, ethereal classic. Dreampop? You bet!

Chasms – Shadow (Public Memory Thundershower Dub)

Tom

The opening track from the recent The Mirage album gets an even “dubbier makeover”. There were plenty of parts in the original that were ripe for remixing and the Public Memory Thundershower Dub brings those elements right out of their shell with the vocals sounding more pronounced alongside the enhanced, heavier percussion. Nicely done! The original version: Facebook Continue reading Chasms – Shadow (Public Memory Thundershower Dub)

Haiku Salut – The More And Moreness

Tom

I cannot say Haiku Salut have ever rocked my world despite their impressive lamp show. The More And Moreness was a recent single and one I have recently discovered. And it’s ace, sounding like a cross between the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and New Order 1982/83. And if that isn’t enough there is also a rather spiffing remix by long term collaborator Thomas Ragsdale (Winter Son/Ghosting Season) which can be found on the Occupy single the band released earlier this year. The More And Moreness is taken from the album There Is No Elsewhere. I may have to dig deeper! Facebook Continue reading Haiku Salut – The More And Moreness

Records I Like Top 10 2015

Tom

2015 was the year I listened to the shoegaze and post punk revivalists in earnest. Club AC30 and Manic Depression Records both deserve a mention alongside the usual cohorts of Dufflecoat Records and Oddbox Records who delivered their signature brand of indiepop, diy and noise pop. I also started listening to full albums again with efforts from The Chills, Beirut and Robert Forster being high on the recommended list. I am still catching up with my backlog though and being heavily played these past few weeks are the likes of Appendixes and Tomiji. So without further ado here is my … Continue reading Records I Like Top 10 2015
