atsum – up

This is super dope. Some seriously sonic fluidity here. Chiming bells sweep in and out, vocal samples played in like drums, crinkles and curls of electronic sounds hit your ear all over. Seriously good.

Tribal drums, with big bass EQ’s hit you right in the centre of the ears, these are mixed in together with electro arpeggiating synths and basslines. Then comes the sample, R&B vocals are spun in … More Champion + Four Tet – Disparate
Dizzieness – Sam Gellaitry
January 24, 2016
I’m genuinely struggling to find more ways to compliment the production of Sam Gellaitry. I’ve followed him since his remix of MJ’s ‘Rock With You‘ about three years ago, and haven’t looked back since. On ‘Dizzieness’ he takes Dizzee Rascal’s speedy distinctive grime flow on ‘Stand Up Tall’ and matches it with middle eastern drums, … More Dizzieness – Sam Gellaitry
