“It came when I had been in bed for a time and was beginning to fall asleep but only partway there—the part of the featherfall into sleep in which whatever lines of thought you’ve been pursuing begin now to become surreal around the edges, and then at some point the thoughts themselves are replaced by images and concrete pictures and scenes. You move, gradually, from merely thinking about something to experiencing it as really there, unfolding, a story or world you are part of, although at the same time enough of you remains awake to be able to discern on some level that what you are experiencing does not quite make sense, that you are on some cusp or edge of true dreaming”

DROPXLIFE

Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:12:00 -0400

Part of the “XO Crew” DROPXLIFE has been responsible for, most notably, some of the tracks for The Weeknd. You’ll recognise the unmistakable Bass-Snare combos on Initiation.

However, I enjoy DROPXLIFE’s mixtapes more than The Weeknd’s.

I’ve made a few tracks myself, never released of course. Never even mastered. It doesn’t matter, I enjoyed them. I honestly think my riffs were good, although I couldn’t write melody to save my life. The very first one I ever made, as in finished, sounded a lot like DROPXLIFE’s work. The clipping, the (accidental) distortion (that I liked), the “half speed” tempo, The 64(?) bar loops, the bass-snare interaction. That punch. It’s uncanny. I don’t have a copy; it was ~1996.

Tue, 05 Mar 2013 23:05:19 -0500

This latest mix from Joe Acheson (aka Hidden Orchestra) is to celebrate the release of the second Hidden album, ‘Archipelago’, which came out on Tru Thoughts Records in October 2012, and the second single to be lifted from the album, ‘Fourth Wall / The Revival’, which came out on February 25th 2013.

Like previous mixes it features all the variety of music that Joe has been listening to in the last year or so, much of which he has added to, mashed up or remixed, with lots of spoken word and field recordings. One of the themes is sleep, or the lack of it - and there’s a strong theme of imagined live collaborations - Kelpe with Thom Yorke, Floex with Maxi Jazz, Crunch with Kate Bush, Tinariwen and Guru with a heavy rhythm section, Ivor Cutler and Johnny Cash trading verses over Jan Johansson’s piano with added beats, Hauschka feat Bob Marley, Steve Reich with vocals from John Lennon and Finsta Bundy, and so on… full tracklist and times below.

‘Archipelago’ is available at all good record stores including
iTunes http://bit.ly/buyarchipelago_itunes / Amazon http://bit.ly/buyarchipelago_amazon / Direct from us http://bit.ly/archipelago_etch

‘Fourth Wall / The Revival’ is also available at all good record stores including
