Beatmapper - “birdsong remixes” (Birdsong Netlabel)
Electronic Pop | With their first Hi-Fi release the Birdsong Netlabel from Israel distributes six wonderful pop-orientated remixes by Beatmapper. Every track comes around with another flavour ranging from the fabulous orchester-remix “tattoo” for Her Highness to the enthusiastic “When i go to the barn” for Lonesome Executive. Especially “When i go to the barn” creeps under my skin with these anthem-like chords. Listen & Read more »

Echo_TM - “Dub Culture” (Afterbeat Netlabel)
Melodic Dub | With his “Dub Culture”-Single Echo_TM provides Offbeat-Lovers with a real groovy and dubby anthem. While the bassline rolls warm on the floor, melodic vocoder-vocals grab your attention. In germany, we call those intense and pop-orientated tunes an “Ohrwurm”, which means hard-translated: worm in the ear. It’s difficult to get rid off an “Ohrwurm”-Tune, because you discover yourself whistling and humming the melody again and again… Echo_TM knows how to produce such melodies…

New Delhi FM - “Row By” (Der kleine grüne Würfel)
Deep Hypnotic Techno | The track “Cable Pollution Results” starts off with a techy chord, slowly filtered and creeping nearer and nearer till the bouncing techno bassdrum starts bounce and to pull us into the track. Truly minimal but melodic New Delhi FM creates one of these huge and hypnotic waves we like to surf through the night on. Except for two tracks at the end, he keeps this concept.
Style: Ambient | Folk-Acoustic
Daisuke Miyatani - “Fragments” EP (Creation Centre)
The Maestro of Accidental Folk is Back | Daisuke Miyatani lives on a small Japanese island, works in a bookshop and releases beautiful, erratic guitar-music all over the world. His records at MiMi, Rain Music, Magic Book and Ahornfelder dog me ever since I started listening to free music. What joy to see his most recent “Fragments” EP published at Creation Centre!
