THE BEATS

Lucine – Jeff McIl­wain’s eight-year career as Lusine has pro­duced a wealth of del­i­cate, hyper-edited elec­tronic music at an ele­gant inter­sec­tion between glitch, IDM, and ambi­ent sounds. Like today’s hybrid cars, hybrid ani­mals, and hybrid foods, Lusine’s music has always been a mix of styles, so his hybrid artist/remix project Podge­lism makes per­fect sense: in addi­tion to rework­ings by some of techno’s best tal­ents (Lawrence, Dim­bi­man, Appa­rat), Lusine con­tributes three fine remixes of his own. Oth­ers read­ily adapt Lusine’s amor­phous com­po­si­tions into solid dance-floor mate­r­ial: John Tejada’s glassy, bass-throbbing grooves reframe “Make It Easy” as mid­night techno, Deru explores abstract hip-hop on “Auto Pilot,” and Robag Wruhme sexes up “The Stop” with anx­ious rhythms and long-decay reverb. Other artists, notably Cepia and Matthew Dear, stick closer to Lusine’s blue­print of sharp, stut­ter­ing per­cus­sion and down-comforter synth arrange­ments, mak­ing Podge­lism a sen­sa­tion­ally bal­anced sonic statement.

Once in a while, there are cer­tain music that makes you slow down and have flash back about your past. Here are those tracks that makes me stop and listen…

Fly­ing Lotus – Infini­tium
Fly­ing Lotus can never fail with his music, being hailed as the “Apex Twin” of US, he keeps sur­pris­ing us with crazy tunes, from dub­step to glitch hop, downtempo.

Ryuichi Sakamoto – The Last Emperor
Ryuichi Sakamoto is a genius composer/electronic pro­ducer, The Last Emperor is no doubt has one of the great­est orig­i­nal sound track in movies his­tory, the movie itself is epic, those havent seen MUST check it out. Ryuichi didnt only com­pose the sound­track, he also stars in the movie (check out the Japan­ese ass­hole toward the end of the movie the kill him­self, yum….those brains were his)

Sigur Rós – svefn-g-englar
Sigur Ros, this Ice­landic band pretty much rein­vented a whole new genre of post-rock-electronic-orchestral. Their sound cer­tainly is mov­ing and emo­tional (even those, really we dont under­stand shit about the lyrics)
