TRG on BBC Radio 1's Rob Da Bank and Friends, 20th of April 2009

If you find that lately you've been spending more time listening to the music dubstep spawned rather than dubstep itself, then this is the mix to remind you why you fell in love with it in the first place. Dark and atmospheric but still really accessible, this is cheese-free dancefloor dubstep at its best.

Track highlights include Clubroot, one of my favourite new producers, also the TRG track that closes the mix, but the biggest tune here is by Joker & Ginz. After thrashing Do It / Psychedelic Runway on my mp3 player all week, I'm just staggered at the amount of talent this kid has.

Clubroot – ‘Low Pressure Zone’ (Lo Dubs)
Madd – ‘I Know It's U’ (White)
Kito ft. Reija Lee – ‘LFO’ (Disfigured Dubs)
TRG – ‘Just Me’ (White)
Pinch – ‘Attack Of the Giant Robot Spiders’ (White)
Peverelist – ‘Clunk Click Every Trip’ (Punch Drunk)
Scuba – ‘Negative’ (Naked Lunch)
Kalbata – ‘Oh Gosh’ (White)
TRG – ‘New In Town’ (White)
Kode 9 – ‘Bad’ (Hyperdub)
Deekline & Wizard – ‘Back Up (Love for the Music) - TRG Remix’(Against The Grain)
Joker & Ginz – ‘ReUp’ (Kapsize)
TRG – ‘909 Trek’ (White)

Legion Of Two - Palace Dub (Demo/Edit)

This is a Legion Of Two track that appeared on a compliation that coincided with the Dublin Electronic Arts Festival. I can so feel myself moving into fanboi status with these guys. The tracks are really heavy yet they still have this amazing forward momentum to them. I can see myself loving these guys either from a massive rig on the dancefloor or from a boombox in some public-park-beer-drinking session. Perfect.

Legion Of Two in the Mix

"A new project from Alan O'Boyle and David Lacey pits electronics against live drums and percussion for a dark, dense and noisy dirge. Huge basslines, slow pounding drums and feedback dominate. Industrial, dub and metal influences are shredded through old guitar pedals and cheap reverbs and reassembled into a driving and melodic force."
Not a bad way to start a press release.

When the world of electronic music dabbles in metal it usually turns out something like Drumcorps or Bong Ra's Grindkrusher; fast metal riffs over fast jungle/breakcore beats. It's fun when you first listen, but the format starts to wear thin pretty quickly. Supposedly what makes that music "metal" is the riffs, but the fact the whole thing is made by someone sitting at a PC is very un-metal - meaning you could see the guitars as being just another sound on a breakcore track.
So what happens when you turn the whole thing on its head? Throw out the drum machine and the guitars and what do you get? Legion Of Two. And they are metal.
The live drums are what is missing from all the sampled electro-metal out there, it gives the whole thing a massive weight which is what heavy fucking metal is all about. With bands like Sunn showing us you can be metal without picking up a guitar (see the video a few posts back) groups like Legion Of Two, while being grounded in the electronic scene (they're signed to Planet Mu), could end up finally making the electronic-metal album fans of both genres deserve.

More of a showcase than a mix, the remix of one of my favourite Sunken Foal tracks was a very pleasant surprise. Enjoy.

Intro – ‘Starbound’
Legion Of Two
Sunken Foal – ‘Rikkic Racquet’ [Legion Of Two Remake]
‘Swan Song‘

Jamie Vex'd LuckyMe Mixtape

This is the best mix I've heard in a long, long time. It's not new so you might have heard it but if not, do not dawdle. Vex'd were always a powerhouse but what Jamie's doing on his own is something very special. In a time when it's very easy to just copy what's going on, Jamie Vex'd seems to be just carving his own path. Keep an ear out for his original tunes in this mix. Really exciting stuff. Just as good is his track selection. Chucking in a Tim Hecker tune is just perfect! Enjoy.

Jamie Vex'd - Saturn's Reply
Rich Reason & Fantastic Mr Fox - Bleep Show
Scuba - Twitch (Jamie Vex'd Remix)
Starkey - Creature
Jamie Vex'd - In System Travel
Erykah Badu - Twinkle
Darkstar - Aidy's Girl's A Computer
Cannibal Ox - F Word (Instrumental)
Zomby - Fantastique (Remix)

Starkey and MC Halfcast on FBi 6th of March 2009

Here's the set Starkey did for FBi back in March. Highlights of the mix are the Jamie Vex'd remix of Miracles and the fucking awesome new Starkey tune Murderous Words. At the start of the mix MC Halfcast was using a desk mic like what the radio announcers use, meaning it was killing the sound coming through the mixer. They sorted themselves pretty quickly though so it only affects the first few tunes. Enjoy.
