Mixed Bag
Warning: Though it may be "Rock-tober", this mix only includes guitar in a sampled, heavy distorted format.
The 3rd instalment of my monthly "mixion" (a bad attempt at combining "mix" and "mission") contains a sole Fake Blood track and NO Boy 8-bit, and only one dubstep track. Madness, I know.
It's still quite stompy, but the midpart gets quite minimal, with lots of stuff from Sweden's Style Of Eye. This guy does minimal like I like it - not really very minimal, and fairly loopy (check out his track "The Big Kazoo" if you can hunt it down on youtube). The other major hat-tips this month are to Dexpistols, the up-and-coming banger-meisters of Japanese electro, and the new mix from Plump DJs on Global Underground.
With 80kidz and Lowbrows (and their Tokyo following) getting distinctly more pop lately, it's up to Osawa and Dexpistols to toe the line between success and good DJing with great care, which as yet I feel they have.
Meanwhile, Plump DJs are showing they're at their best in the mix (with Headthrash being a bit of an average album) on their newest release, chock-full of the bigbeat ish you just wish was dropped more often these days.
Anyway, track here (mediafire).
