[Teaser of the day] Stray Dogg - Time (feat. Devendra Banhart)
Ada Rave Cuarteto – La Continuidad (2011)
/Jazz, Improvised music, Bebop,
Downbeat, Free jazz, Experimentalism/
Comment: the Argentinian Ada Rave Cuarteto`s
10-track issue does have predisposition to drift between mild downbeat chord
progressions and smoothly produced bebop numbers and on the other side toward more
tumultuous, thudding free jazz torrents. Having shift between silence and
noise. The tumultuous element can be divided into two parts – it can be depicted
as a dynamic enterprise of manipulating with only acoustic instruments in a
frenzied way or having more static and quiet, even an obsessive viewpoint upon it.
Although following their own impulses and aesthetic convictions the quartet`s
playing technique is obviously a designation toward such cutting edge jazz
musicians as Theolonius Monk, Anthony Braxton, Eric Dolphy, John Zorn and
Ornette Coleman. All in all, the result is thought-provoking and moody.
Juan MP - Sabado En Polvo (2013)
/Techno, House, Tech-house,
Downstep/
Comment: Juan López aka Juan MP is an artist
from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico who is the co-owner of the label Melodic Art Records
and being related to Kreativa Records. Sabado
En Polvo includes 4 tracks of techno and house spliced rhythms. The nature
of the issue varies from brisk and sparkly paces to some rather laidback and
soothing undertakings. However, the opening track Sabado De Domingo deviates stylistically from the whole of
representing rather downstep music. Calzada
de Armonia is the protuberant frequency on it – profoundly hypnotic and
suggestive at the same time. In a word, the issue provides a decent listening
experience.
Kuh Lida – Ball It Out Back It Up (2013)
/Hip-hop, Breakcore,
Sampledelic, Experimental-hop, House pop, Electro-pop, Electro-hop, Breaks,
Mood music/
Comment: the only shortage related to this
6-track issue is its shortness. Musically the Chicagoan Myles Emmons` issue is
fabulous blend of experimental hip-hop sounds, sampledelic craftsmanship and
sunshiny samples. The artist gets obviously inspiration from different places
and eras harking back to Parliament/Funkadelic-alike effortless progressions
regarding the groove and on the other side paying attention to Flying Lotus
ability to create microscopic but otherworldly catchy sonic models, and of
course the issue includes some Detroit electro and Chicago house influences and
even neurotic Death Grips-alike hip-hop spasms throughout. It is similar to
another American producer Christian Montoya aka Miami Slice`s latest issue Brooklyn 2 Brooklyn relative to his
highly dance-appealed and cheerful pop blended progressions. All in all, in the
first place it is a soundtrack for the listener who has been devoid of a strike
of serotonin for a while. It is an efficacious cure indeed.
