Dekode Live on the Beat & Bones

Continuing the vein of the past few posts on this site (they being: ). This is yet another old but not forgotten bookmark that has been lurking away in my “darkfloor mixes” folder. From the Serbian Dekode comes a live radio mix of his from around about 8 months ago, or thereabouts. The only details [...]

Broken Note – Equinox mix

Broken Note. Seriously heavy speaker workout sound. Their album Terminal Static is still in my record bag (and my iPod) where it will remain for a long time to come yet. I noticed this mix (hosted and released via the Amon Tobin site) whilst perusing Facebook this morning, procrastinating prior to getting going in the [...]

sclist – Bleeding Headache Mix

Recently found this mix again whilst sorting out some of the many unsorted bookmarks I seem to accumulate. Been liking sclist’s production work for quite a while now, as those who listen to MANTIS regularly will know. Speaking of which, he should be guesting on the show in the next few months.
This mix was recorded [...]

DVNT – Live at United Beats 19/06/2010

Recorded during my recent DJ set at the techno festival: United Beats, a 3 arena virtual event hosted in Second Life. My set is full of techno, fresh darkfloor beats, and solid faves with a seemingly unhealthy obsession with the new Acroplane release from Electromeca. Yes it really is that good.
Enough words, more music. Here [...]

Full Spektrum – Kemistry [Digital Distortions]

Full Spektrum was showcased back on our 53rd MANTIS Radio show, grab that here: MANTIS 053 + FULL SPEKTRUM. This is his latest release on one of darkfloor’s favourite labels: Digital Distortions. Check the tracklisting for audio samples. Suffice to say, this should be an instant purchase.

Baconhead – Soap EP

Released today, this is the Soap EP from Baconhead. Baconhead are Ebola and Autobee, making sci-fi beats to confuse your brain. Production is solid, as you’d expect from Acroplane. Standout track for me is Wookie, with Zan Lyons remix of Goonies a VERY close second.

Swarm Intelligence – AgentCast April 2010

Disgracefully swiped from the Invisible Agent guys, an Irish based electro/techno label. Swarm Intelligence heads up Stasis Records (who I’ve charted releases from in the past). I’ve been getting quietly obsessed by one artist he’s released music from, namely, Ventolyn & Becotyde.
One mere glance at the tracklist and you know you’re in for [...]
