Galaxian

MIX: Galaxian – Broken Britain

Fresh work from the dark electro talent that is Scotland’s Galaxian is always a very welcome sight.

MIX: Galaxian Live at DUM DUM

I know, I know, this is probably feeling overdue seeing as it’s a recording from back in late March. Still, it’s here now. What we’ve got is a great recording of Galaxian‘s live set at DUM DUM on March 26th at Bacchus in Glasgow. Don’t expect a tracklist, but do expect to hear raw forward [...]

mix: Galaxian – Live at Detatched, 05/03/2011

Galaxian makes forward thinking fresh sounding electro with a good thick layer of crunchy electronics thrown in there. His work sounds raw and at times is uncompromising. His recent album on Transient Force, Repent, is without going off in a chorus of description, great and very worthy of your attention. On Saturday, Galaxian made his [...]

review: Galaxian – Repent LP on Transient Force

Back in the days of MySpace, you know before the mighty Soundcloud, I came across Galaxian’s profile page. Galaxian, a Glasgow producer, specialises in future sounding heavy dark electro. He was featured on the 36th MANTIS Radio show back in April 2009 and by all accounts laid down a truly awesome set: Galaxian put together [...]

MANTIS:presents: Galaxian – Sub City Radio

Recently Galaxian performed this live set at Sub City Radio up in Glasgow, Scotland. He’s sent me his recording of it and it’s bloody fantastic. It’s a combination of his tracks, re edited and arranged together with brand new bits and loops and what not. Most of it he says, doesn’t even have names yet.

Limited edition Galaxian CD.

Galaxian, who provided a fantastic showcase (with some 75% or fresh beats made exclusively for the showcase), has got a very limited release CD comprising of his excellent End of Forever (originally released on Black Montana, check out sublime Scuffle from it) release with 2 unreleased tracks. Suffice to say this is really recommended.

Mantis Radio 036 + Galaxian

Galaxian has been making music on and off for roughly 12 years. Within the last year and a half he has been producing electro style beats and during that time has knocked up a few releases on a number of different labels.

His influences come more from Techno and IDM styles than your more traditional electro. This results in his electro having a different flavour from what you’ve come to expect in that style. He is constantly striving to being new ideas and sounds to his productions whilst maintaining that strong sense of danceability. It’s also got to always be fresh and funky he says.
