    Owltree - Daylight is Not for Owls

    Tags: BSWC One-a-Day, commons, featurebiotic @ 10:01 am

    Some sounds for New Zealand for your pleasure. This release comes via the netlabel, Lo-Kiwi. I found it on the hiddenplace music blog.

    The release is called Tender Pecking.

    Many songs about owls. I like owls.

    There are some excellent tunes on the release. I'm looking forward to spending more time with Owltree and Lo-Kiwi.

    Spinmeister - Robot Love (imádlak)

    I said a boom, wakka chikka, wakka chikka, boom.

    Oh, man is this a great track from ccMixter.org that was posted to the site on Friday.

    Here at Camp BSWC, we are fond of our Sex and Space theme. This tune fits the bill on both accounts.

    Starting with the very velvety guitar sample posted by Victor Fourstones, along with the luscious spoken words from Marika, aka essesq, Spinmeister pulls together an extremely sexy number that is so hot you might forget the summer humidity. At least I did. [Update 7/23/08: The preceding paragraph is in error. Marika is responsible for "imádlak" and essesq bringing the 'pella to the table. I regret the error.]

    This selection should definitely be in consideration for the Wakka Chikka, Wakka Chikka, Porn Music for the Masses, vol. 3 (if one ever materializes).

    Plaistow - Yap Yap

    Some bass, some drums, some jazz and some just so.

    This is a fantastic track from a recent anniversary compilation released by the netlabel, 12rec.

    The signature of this release is the mix of instrumentation and styles. A lot of organic sounds mixed in with the electronics.

    This track is has a nice, building jazz push that is heavy on the piano, bass and drums. Really excellent.

    Go to the release page and sample the wares...you are bound to find something you like.

    Klipp - cs (Live @ Ciclo XT)

    Go with this one. It really develops into an amazing piece of electronic music.

    Klipp is Hector Zarate and Jorge Soriano. This live track is from a Discos Konfort release called Ciudad de Mexico.

    Discos Konfort is a netlabel devoted to Mexican electronic music. They have some marvelous releases. I was reviewing their catalog and stumbled on this live track. I've listened through it three times and decided it was time I shared.

    Lushy - Spaced Out

    Well, damn it, I'm going to do it.

    I'm unsure of the license behind this download from Lushy's site, but here it is anyway. They have two tunes posted at their website, lushy.com. I'm digging on this little disco ditty...not to mention that it goes along with our unspoken sex and space theme here at BSWC.

    Lushy features a very good friend of mine, Andy Sodt-we go back to high school, by god. If you hang in Seattle, check them out.

    Cezary Ostrowski - We are in love (very deep mix)

    Well, how about that, two posts on the same night. There is a lot of great music out on the net. Followers of BSWC will recognize our bias towards the mixters at ccMixter. One mixter has always intrigued us and his name is Cezary Ostrowski.

    This is a mysterious piece...haunting and beautiful. Ostrowski is using the entrancing vocals of Shannon Hurley who has issued a call for remixes using a cappellas from her “Ready to Wake” album. His work here is brilliant.

    Thanks to Spinmeister for including it in ccMixter's Editor's Pick section.

    Metamorphosis - Miami(Final version)

    The Dutch netlabel, On-Mix Productions just posted their 100th release and its a doozy. It is called VA-The best ON-Mix tracks according to Kodjax [onmp100]

    They asked DJ Kodjax to pick the top 41 tracks from their previous 99 releases. I'm always up for a compilation so I put my ears to the metal.

    I found a lot of variety, but with the unrelenting beat theme going on throughout. You will definitely have to pick and choose your favorites...everyone will have a different reaction. I have several that have really struck me and interestingly enough, they are new to me. I have some familiarity with On-Mix and Kodjax introduced me to some really outrageous stuff. Thanks.

    There will probably be more from this release in the feed. Stay tuned.

    Jupiter Makes Me Scream - Alinai

    Here is something new from the Foot side of the Bumpfoot netlabel. Bumpfoot is a netlabel based in Japan that has two sides. One is the Bump which features music that is more uptempo and beat oriented. The Foot side of the label is more laid back and relaxing. This is what we find with Jupiter Makes Me Scream.

    The release is called Tuesday Morning Hurricane EP and was posted at archive.org on Sunday, July 6th.

    It took me a couple listens to catch up with the beauty of these five tunes. I picked one to share, but I recommend listening to the complete release in order. They work with and compliment each other.

    Tuesday Morning Hurricane EP was produced by Karolis Buržinskas. He is the Lithuanian behind Jupiter Makes Me Scream.

    Enjoy this release.

    Trondheim - Erlöst von dieser Hoffnung

    Another blocSonic release hit the net last night. It is a good one. Perhaps a little quieter than some, but there are some fantastic cuts on this compilation.

    This Trondheim tune is from an Aerotone release called Zum Abschied (AER013). Aerotone is a netlabel with the catch phrase, "welcome to aerotone. we are a netlabel and we love melancholic music." This gives you an idea of what to expect from this track.

    Like other Trondheim efforts, this one has a strong classical feel to go along with chill beats and gentle atmospherics.

    I've posted material included on blocSonic compilations in the past (last week, as a matter of fact) and really appreciate the work that blocSonic impresario, Michael Gregoire has put into the effort.
