Erol Alkan included Mount Kimbie in a mixtape for XLR8R as one of his current favourite tracks of the moment. Mount Kimbie is a London based duo that produce simple, minimal thoughful tunes that are very visual. They evoke rainy images of the UK but in a very epic and hopeful way not like Burial’s dark, melancholy way. There are also a few moments that are reminiscent of Prefuse 73/Savath & Savalas. Speaking of Burial, his collab with Four Tet is amazing. Wolf Cub / Moth via GvB

RAMPAGE is a Chicago based DJ/Producer that is bringing back some attitude and energy back into the Chicago scene. I love that “organ” synth sound, reminds me of Robin S’ “Show Me Love”.

Nighty Max brings us all more of his epic/feel-good production style with this track “Flannel Tent”. I love the drums and the guitar part.

Mayer Hawthrone cleans up quite well. This tune is a lot more polished and has that modernized R&B sound, not as gritty as “Just Ain’t Gonna Work Out” but still as good. Stones Throw can do no wrong.

Das Glow always produces solid tracks, I have always been a big fan of “Sunburnt”. “I Want to Wake Up With You” is very smooth filter-house track with a horn sample that is super slick, I guess it is because he released this on Vulture Music, Alan Braxe’s label, so some of his influence rubbed off on this track.

DIGITAL OUTRO F16_14
Here is the beginning of Phoenix’s viral, secret, social networking, marketing scheme by posting some demos and outtakes that did not make it to the already awesome Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. Today they posted a demo version of Lisztomania with just vox and guitar and a tweeked out digital synth outro that I feel should have made it onto the album somewhere. So stay tuned and watch out for what password gains you access to these tracks.
Cheers, Hear & Shout

An impressive remix by The Golden Filter, a group that I feel like I have neglected to listen to over the past few blogosphere months. I love the string stabs and the angular arpeggiated synth line.
