Take a preview and play it loud!

Let the music  start…let your mind fly in a indefinite time and space…fly in the music.

Sometime psychedelic, this artist let you remeber pieces of David Bowie, Doors,Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Syd Barrett,Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, The cure, The who, Beatles and, in general all the music of 60′ s and 70′s.

It’s really strange to think that plaing is a chinese boy, culturally so far from american and english music. But, if you look through the musical chinese young musician landscape, you will find an excellent musicall scene.  Lonely Planet Boy 1969 has a strong musical background so the result is a mature album, dens of a great composition of different influences.

We really like the first track, Cellar Boy,  that introduce you to the world of the artist  using soft percussions, guitars and a grate vocal.

Also great the second track, Planet Earth’s Midnight Creature Show, so strongly influenced by the Bowie of Space Oddity.

Alf blues alf rock, track number seven mix a Ray Charles like piano with Led Zeppelin sonorities…astonishing!

Even if it seems to be an incomplete album, or at least an experimental one before the real release, the Alieninvasion is a good friend for your working time. You have no voices or too much groove changes, just a linear, simple but effective composition.

You just have to play it, and forgot it.

This EP starts with Unendliche Weiten, an old style track that remember the glorious battles and fights on the first home computer… Spectrum, VIC-20, Commodore 64, Atari… and so on. When less was more. Less bits to use, but more creativity.

Sigal aus dem All is short, melodic, smooth and silky.

Bringing you to the 90′s, Die Invasion is more dark then other tracks, with latin percussions and a 90′s synth groove.

Maybe Geisterstadt is the poorest track in composition and arrangement, but equally effective.

Testing Toys is a 6-tracks album, with a massive electronic sound, characteristic female singing and many influences from other musical genres, like tango.

The mainstyle of this album is a dejà-vu for your ears if you are already a fan of artists like Björk, Lamb, Hooverphonic and others from the same genre. But, this not means that this work of Fabryka is banal and uninteresting.

The opening track Legoland is a downtempo fat and atmospheric ouverture. Great bassline, great ambience and characteristic singing.

Speeding up the rhythm, A Cure has a drum’n'bass-like drumset baseline and a fat muted bassline. We like also the second choral distorted voice in the background.

We like the third track Handful of Dust, that include a tango insert merged with a fat and massive groove, with an appreciating singing.

Well done guys!

Take a preview:

This is a one-man-band album, the first of a canadian boy, Brad, that sometimes is compared to Beck.

Let we say that Make me nervous it’s, the opening album track, it’s really cool!
We like the funny mix of pop, electronic and alternative sounds.

Listen to Bad Attraction, track number four, and you will find a rock song with a recall to Lenny Kravitz!

Never get out, track number eight, it’s an interesting example of electronic music, very well palyed!

At last, this really is a very enjoyable album to get in your i-Pod!

With a mix of house music, rock and pop sounds, atmospheres and riffs sometime remembering INXS and Pet Shop Boys, Viola is a band — a duet — really talented that produces good and tasty music.

This is one of the two remixes album they have released, in addition to other original albums like Wonderabilia, one of the most mature made by this band.

Every track is an independent world, with sounds, metrics and style.

We really like the opening track Sad Eyes Disco Dancers with its electronic rude bass and the classic drumset, we also like the singing, well performed.

A different taste, more incisive and housie (let me write it so) is Violentia (Boys OF Scandinavia Remix) with its great bass and that INXS guitar riff. More morbid, with spatial atmospheres and 80′s sounds, City Silhouette (Roger Remix) recalls some Pet Shop Boys sound and a little singing “deja-vu” from Battle For Britain by David Bowie. The tracks flow perfectly, your legs need to dance and you’ll feel so good.

Pretty experimental are Deepspeed /Kris Kylven Reconstruction & Remix) and Kiss And Break Up (Verneri Lumi Remix), maybe the most ones electronical of the entire album. Really different, and we really like them.

An album with a strog nature, that mix together a lot of different kind of sounds in a  gorgeous and sophisticated blend.

Every song has it own character, accurate and determinate, but there is a deep reserch for an harmony that it’s able to tie up all of the pieces.

We think that one of the most interesting songs of the album is Radio-Active, the 4rd one, ’cause it’s a successful combination of louge, electronic, chillout and fusion music.

Arabic sonorities, tipical middle east instruments mixed with elctronic effects are the topic of Inshallah,7th position in the album, a song that make you breath tipical fragrances of mediterranean countries.

Have you never tried to breath the Narghile smoke? Listen to the 8th song…

You can find a good quality elettronic music in Morphine against terrorism, fast and energetic!

If you appreciate the classic way of the electronic music, the one that inspire pop music, soundtrack composing and other modern musical genres, well, you’ll feel good with this album.

Tubtrek is the free EP from Azeda Booth, an electronic band from Calgary, Canada.

The EP will bring you into a magic journey inside worlds made by pure and sharp-cornered electronic sounds and samples, bubbling and bouncing rhythm sets, ethereal voices, classic instruments and wide synth pads. All blended with melodies.

Tubtrek is splitted in 4 original tracks and 4-other-mix ones.

Samoan Girls is an authentic example of high quality electronic ambient track. It’s pretty liquid and ethereal, with melodies but on a solid and pure classic sounds and drumset, often played through a distorted filter.

Squall is something similar to Samoan Girls, but with a more incisive, fat and bad drumset.

Well, in its refilled and set in sand version, is a well performed precious jewel with magisterial sounds and samples. Not too ambient, but with the right atmosphere.

Big Fists is more funny and dancing than the rest of the EP, less atmospheric but more incisive and “straight”. It’s the right ending track of this excellent album.

Take a preview:

The work of Paniq is very eclectic and original, especially on this 17-tracks album Neurons: Fire At Will.

We really like the ability to change from house to techno, from breakbeat to psy, from rhythm to… acapella! Inside the Paniq’s Neurons you can find dark atmospheres or funny stories, relaxing contemplations and dynamic runnings. All that you need is inside this work.

We like how the same name opening track Neurons: Fire At Will starts the album, with its “rolling” bassline and angelic-spatial atmosphere.

The funniest ones are probably Elektronische Musik, that could remember a modern style of the Kraftwerk, 23 Is The New 42 with a really interesting voice’s samplers playing and good groove, and Thoughtcrime, an electronic hanky-panky swing with a 70′s UFO solo.

If you love the hard house genre, Nice To Be Here is the song that you’ll make you sweat on your preferred dancefloor.

Do you need some psy trance music? Well, let’s go back to the 80′s with a psy version of the Knight Rider theme, recalled Psy Rider, and then line up your brain with the excellent Theta frequency.

Once you got them, try to relax yourself with Progression, a beatiful electronic download progressive track.

The community named “Tunguska Electronic Music Society” was created by several musicians and composers on the threshold of centenary of the Tunguska phenomenal catastrophe, in order to capture the public attention to such an extraordinary event.

It is an international creative cooperation of musicians, producers, dj’s and composers, who work from the beginning of 2007 in “Tunguska Music” style. TMS is also a net of network music distribution labels and a net of little bars and cafes.

Over 15 artists and 27 tracks inside this state of art chillout double album.

The main style of the whole work is smooth and liquid, with sounds from Mother Earth to Outer Space, up and down through the mesosphere and the exosphere.

Into this big cosmic galaxy of music we found our preferred brighter stars, named Argonika with their Heavens Cry and Do You Hear. We really loved the vocoder singing and the composition.

Moreover, we really like Pianochocolate with his mix of classical instruments like piano and violins on an electronic pad. In ZuZu we also have an Indian singer, we suppose.

And, even if we have to remember that all the work is a bomb, we have one more shot to bang: Electro-Nick with his Istra Train. We really appreciate the involving groove with the brass-like synth solo.
