Artner 11:40 (Budabeats)


At 11.40 are presented 5 brainchilds within 22 minutes by Daniel Artner (also known as dyspeptic) who has made out a fine mix of psychedelic funk, cinematic jazz, blue-coloured trip-hop, fringed by string lines, hip-hop scratches and speech samples at times. Shuffling broken beats/downbeats, dusty organs, Miles Davis-esque trumpets, dynamic guitar lines, subtle brass samples, lone piano chords, and soothing flutes are the instruments here searching for different combinations with each other creating up climax-touched variations and afrobeat-alike easiness. Indeed, it is in a smart way layered oeuvre emboding different roles as entertainer and as brain dance notch. If you like the sounds from Bristol or the acts under Ninja Tune, Dusted Wax Kingdom and other similar labels, in this case, this issue is certainly for you. And not only for you.
