Releases some new
1/13/12
1.9.12. Rekchampa, Atlanta DJ/Producer, and Ethereal collaborate in the new track, Dream/Ecstasy. I love the Rek and Ether style shift that volleys back and forth at around 1:55 and 4:40 with a DnB breakdown and sample loop. Ether and Rek compose together what Ethereal describes as "a dream filled with ecstasy." Stream. Download for free. Or buy for a dollar on bandcamp (worth it).
1.7.12. heRobust and Awfully Creative bring you a look into the live performance of a local glitched out hero. Don't forget Awful Sessions // Rekchampa and Ethereal // Live @ the Apache. Also, it should be mentioned that heRobust and Ethereal were included in Creative Loafing's favorite things about music in 2011.
1.1.12. Released by Fool's Gold Records, Flosstradamus dropped Jubilation in late November and then continued to release a J U B I L A T I O N M I X T A P E for Mad Decent's podcast. Now they are working on a full length EP, "Total Recall." The single is up for grabs already, check it out (I'm looking forward to a Major Lazer // Original Don (Flosstradamus RMX) coming soon, too).
More Ethereal?... Abstractica.
More Rekchampa?... Pocket The Rest.
More heRobust?... Albumin.
More Flosstradamus?... Jubilation.
Some new releases
12/10/11
Supreme I.N.K., Lazymane and Kosherbeets, is one of the funkiest hip hop duos in the Atlanta scene right now and their newest mixtape, Sell it to Me Free, includes some original production by Lazy, but also Ethereal - the new signee to Slumerican, the same label with Rittz and Yelawolf - and also Introspective Minds, all really talented producers. Go and listen, support Supreme I.N.K., and enjoy.
Ethereal is another one of my favorite acts to come out of Atlanta and his latest 20 minute jam is a great example of how Ethereal is making his own lane, crafting a sound, and owning it.
I recently spent some time at the home of studio where Back Pack Music: Back to School Vol. 1, was created, in Snellville, GA. Jon Malmgrem, the Owner of Back Pack Music, made sure that the studio feels like a home away from home for everyone that comes through there, and is why he created this project, to unify all the artists that pass through the halls of BPM. I'm anxious to hear what else comes out of BPM, because I am a really big fan of Broken Wax Wings that has already been on this page before.
Delta Rae // "Bottom of the River" *New Video*
11/14/11
I've written on Delta Rae previously, but they are continuing to up the ante with the release of their newest music video for "Bottom of the River" and free download. They really took the style and genre seriously with this one. With the help of Phi Beta Sigma step team they were able to create human percussive instruments to accompany Brittany Holljes ferocious vocals. I love that the song defies any and all normative structures of popular music - I'm really not missing the trance synths with this one.
Although this is a short and stylistic piece, it does not mean that it lacks talent. Everything from the make-up, the framing of the shots, the choreography, to the hum and clap of the accompaniment is executed with precision. Manifested from their musical piety, Delta Rae's artistic quality is as always, made of and for the soul.
Download, "Bottom of the River" for free.
