A Made Up Sound, Alarm/Crisis
Viewing dubstep from the perspective of techno and especially house, A Made Up Sound is a essentially a metaphor for current trends where house and dubstep are the hot combination.
Kabale Und Liebe, Since You Looked Into My Eyes
Kabale Und Liebe’s “Since You Looked Into My Eyes,” laden as in The Fog’s almost rap-like cadence, is unexpectedly close to 2010’s take on hip-house.
Pale Sketcher, Can I Go Now (Gone Version)
Justin Broadrick’s latest project, Pale Sketcher, completely foregoes the guitars and fixes his attention on the synths.
Mano Le Tough, Oblique
Having provided three labels with four very different singles, it’s not surprising Mano Le Tough has yet to be pigeonholed.
Unknown, Oops
The Oops 12″ on Caravan pairs sides that, while basically tools — blank and ambiguous enough to fit into a variety of sets — nevertheless display a lot of character.
Fabrice Lig, Digital Forest
Digital Forest follows shortly after the prolific Fabrice Lig’s third album, Genesis Of the Deep for Fine Art Recordings, finding a connective thread in their boundless energy and enthusiasm for densely layered arrangements.
Mano Le Tough, Baby, Let’s Love
With his Baby, Let’s Love 12″ Mano Le Tough furthers his reputation with mixes that cover the deep and techier ends of the house spectrum.
