We remain amazed from the King deluxe’s new releases. We have received few days ago an other new upcoming release from the label, scheduled for the 1st of May. We are writing for the first release of Alphabets heaven named boosh!. You can read the review from King Deluxe website bellow
“Coming from the beautiful boutique label that is King Deluxe is the May 1st release of Alphabets Heaven’s Boosh. Brighton’s own sovereign of the snares and kicks delivers a 7 track release featuring 3 works as well as 3 reworks, including one from Robot Koch. Though his modus operandi would indicate an EP full of clicks and clunks, Boosh beats to a different drum. Delivered is something much more rhythmic than just click and clunks. Thought there are some up tempo ditties, my personal faves are all of the slower tempo’ed pieces. The opener and title track does feature a steady measured and melodious piece full of efx, filters, still managing to creating a refrain from it all. But I found myself stuck on Deartentonine, drawn in possibly by the opening guitar sample, but then taken to this lavishly lush landscape conjuring images and sounds of wild flora & fauna, all done gracefully in an adagio pulse. YES.” – 92BPM
Some days ago, we have received a submission in our account by a 26 years old(Sean Layton), new electro/dubstep artist-producer from the States, located in Los Angeles named Illustrated. He recently signed with an electro/dubstep label located in the UK called, “LU 10 Records”, after listening to his single “Subtle Hints” which is available as well as other recent tracks bellow.
The sound of Illustrated is very well mastered, gives the impression that is made from someone who is really well educated in contemporary electronic music. It rather follows the new wave of dubstep which is definitely getting a huge scene in the States and the UK. Illustrated is definitely an upcoming artist which deserves your attention where also can be placed together with other successfull artists like Sub focus (his dubstep releases). We would definitely like to interview Illustrated here, the upcoming weeks if that is possible.
We would like to apologize once again for the delay of our annual report. We have already announced the results for the best websites of the year and best clubs and now it is the turn of the best tracks of the year. The results concerning the best tracks of the year are rather interesting and thats because many of the tracks people mentioned are actually unexpected.
Tracks from different labels and genres shows once again the variety and the extensive strength of contemporary electronic music. An other thing that was clearly stated from this little shituationist research was the fact – a lot of different people, a lot of different choices. I was very confused in the end, what tracks to post here. Therefore I will try to be as much as objective as possible and in the other hand to present ten tracks instead of five. The tracks have not any specific order.

Darko Esser – “clean slate” comes from Curle label as the 033rd release on February 2011. Darko esser after the success of “absolutely no regrets” releases an other fabulous deep sound techno track. Curle is a great Belgian label launched in 2006 for all things deep techno, house and miminal stuff.
Active Child – I’m in your church at night. This tracks was actually originally released in July 2010. Few people mentioned this track, therefore I decided to post it bellow. You can read a nice review on Active Child’s album released in August 2011 by pitchfork here
Andri – Rock the night feat Hellsongs (URSL 002). This is with no doubt the long awaited, open air – summer hit of the last year.Especially in the parks of Berlin in the various open air parties. The track was included in homonym EP and was released by URSL(a label based in Berlin and Hamburg) in May 2011.
Andy Stott – Dark details: available on Modern Love 2×12″. An interesting dub techno track released onModern love labelfrom Manchester UK
Damn Hot Night- daddyKshunn (Berlin Racketeers Mix) – unreleased
Rustie – Ultra Thizz: Very fresh sound with rather oldskool influences in some parts, from the debut Album of Rustie (Glass swords) released on Warp last October. You can read our review on the album here
wutzlhofer – bad frequencies: A techno track from Berlin also available for free download by us few months ago
oliver schories – wildfang: Most likely, you all know this track, so no further presentment is necessary. A track who totally rocked the Berlin dancefloors last year released byParquet Recordings . Oliver originally from Hamburg remains one of top listed djs in Germany.
Carlo Lio and Coyu – Mike Loves The Horn: released on rejected last October by the Spanish duo.
We recently have hosted two features concerning the Canadian label King Deluxe. Two interviews: one with the people of the label and one interview with Aleph, a new impressive artist from Russia. We have received also few of the releases of the label, among those releases, there is also the single of Evy Jane “says no” . Evy Jane “says no” according an article on RA is the very first vinyl release of King Deluxe. Evy Jane are the duo from Vancouver (singer/keyboardist Evelyn Jane Mason and beatsmith Jeremiah Klein). “The vocals of Evelyn on “Says so” in combination with a very proper post dubstep inspired sound makes a very exceptional result. The dark atmosphere and sensuality of this release is definitely the main impression you get at first. Besides the original version, on this release you may also find interesting the two remixes by two artists from Vancouver scene named Max ulis and Taal Mala. A highly recommended release from us today. You can buy it here as well as having an audio preview http://kingdeluxe.ca/evy-jane-self-titled/
This is an other release by Artist recordings that I can’t find many reasons to complain about. 4 tracks by GeneticBros – Overextended (Viper Rec,TalkinBeatz,Artist Recordings),Indivision - Evolution (Beta/Toolroom/Have-A-Break Recordings/Climate),Subsonik – feat.Essence – Inside Your Mind (Subsonik Sound Recordings),Prestige & Nik Itch – No Exit – (GRID Recordings are included to this first part of Artist recordings EP with official release date January the 23rd. Dreamy vocals, melodies combined with powerfull breaks designed for the dancefloor, seems to be the clear direction proposed by artist recordings. As we also mentioned few months ago in previous review concerning artist recording release, the background as well as the reasoning of the label does not seem so bad. I dare say is somewhat progressive in our days and this is because its efforts of trying to mobilize new artists to show their work and spread quickly new impressive tunes. So it is worth your attention. You can download it for free by following the link with the instructions at breakbeat.co.uk here
It seems that the 2012 starts with a very brilliant release in the late january. Doc Daneeka & Benjamin Damage’s collab album THEY!LIVE dropping on 27thJAN 2012 on Modeselektor’s 50WEAPONS.Check the audio preview bellow.
The most of you , especially our friends from Berlin and Germany in general, I bet you know a label named “Audiolith”. Artists like Egotronic, Ira Atari, Saaschutz and many others are the dynamic of the audiolith.Antifasistic lyrics, electropunk style, a genre still really popular in Germany. A rather progressive attitude and certainly radical content belongs to the strongly good part of this music style.
As a free download today , we have a track in collaboration of Torsun(from Egotronic) with Plemo called fuck audiolith released in February 2011 in 4 different versions, If you like what Egotronic do then you will definitely like this release.
This is a feature concerning the best 5 (or what I consider) drum n bass releases , which I have presented at this blog the last year. As we do every year in December at the shituationist institute blog , we evaluate , feature our highlights. It would be great to send us your comments and mention some cool releases who probably are missing from this post. As usual there is no specific order of the following presented releases.

Calibre – Hummer EP on Samurai music. More info for this release here
Tantrum desire runaway Ep on tecnique recordings. More info for this release here
ps: With no doubt , there are several great releases this years which I didnt have time to write something about. Therefore I would be very amazed if you contribute your suggestions for the 2011 highlights, especially regarding full album releases.
The new album of Blu Mar Ten is out since the end of October and its absolutely mind blowing. Blu Mar Ten have really outdone themselves, the “Love is the Devil” is probably one of the best albums this year for the whole electronic music scene. The mellodies in this album come directly from the sky,the vocals are rather compatible with the beats and all together show the way how to produce the perfect album.
Over 90 minutes and 18 songs, I bet you wont lay down your sofa while listening this album. Blu Mar Ten are over 16 years around,recording music, well known for those kind of style of drum n bass.They also run their very own Blu Mar Ten records . Straight from London , Mainstream and atmospheric,but more than everything, an album covered with love. “Love is the devil” is absolutely a massive release , highly recommended by the shituationist institute blog for this year best of.
