Yes, a true mark of a great remix is when you prefer it to the original. This is exactly what we have here with Fraction’s remix of Agoria’s track, “Heart Beating”. It’s a more darker and sinister sounding version that just thumps away.
Agoria (aka Sebastian Devaud) is the co-found of the InFine label and has just recently released his full length album,”Impermanence”, from which this track originally was released.
Beat pounding and unrelenting is this wonderful piece of art from Jhameel. He infuses his spirit in this track and in doing so, has created a raw and emotional track. Be sure to download all his tracks from his website for free, but let’s support this creative individual by dropping a few dimes into his paypal account!
Back again with another excellent track from Black Light Dinner Party (BLDP). If you dig Miike Snow, then this group is highly recommended. If you missed my previous post on them, you can read/hear it here. Vocals and production just suck me in and I get lost the melancholy of it all. To borrow a cliched term from baseball, these guys are batting a thousand.
Black Light Dinner Party’s second release Small Boxes highlights the foundation of their sound – thick, off-kilter beats, saturated basslines and vintage electronics paired with glowing harmonics, breathing vocals and elegant, heartfelt arrangements. The first piece of music since their debut single, ‘Older Together’, which hit #3 on hypemachine in it’s first week, Small Boxes continues the BLDP tradition – LA beats rolling along with bohemian ease, New York synths on a frosted Sunday morning and Lush Parisian melodies, always with a taste for the bittersweet.

The Buzz – “This mystery project is comprised of four anonymous producers, and their immaculate first offering…certainly sounds like they know their way around a mixing desk.”
