Ghost Kwini – Dark Address EP

Mutant grime abstractions from Dutch producer Ghost Kwini. A relative outsider to the scene, nonetheless Kwini knows what makes it work, proving so with four tracks of slyding square wave basslines, mercurial rhythms and bleeps picking up where Zomby’s freakiest creations left off and garbing them in the sonic equivalent of strange, fluoro trackies, star trek shades and tinfoil capes. That’s a compliment, by the way. RIYL Bok Bok, Dro Carey, Jameszoo, Visionist…

My Panda Shall Fly – Higher

Label: Sonic Router

Sonic Router Records’ first release of 2014 comes from the South London dwelling producer, My Panda Shall Fly. Long since a friend of the label, MPSF’s music has blossomed through numerous fits, starts and collaborations with his work adorning multiple imprints since he first emerged in 2011. But with his latest 6 track EP, Higher, his tonal and textural ideas have found a consistent voice adapting to the array of different tempos perfectly.

“These tracks are loosely based around the concept of ‘sacred pain’,” offers MPSF of the EP; “an extremely fascinating subject I’d found myself digging into without any real prior warning. After learning about the myriads of ways individuals endure affliction and suffering for their various beliefs across the planet, I recalled witnessing such an act for the first time when I was aged nine, in my home-town of Kandy, Sri Lanka. Without doubt the spectacle left quite a mark upon my psyche, so much so that it evokes this memory some eighteen years later.”

“In my practice, I’ve always wanted to keep pushing myself to explore new modes and forms of making music, sometimes to a point of never repeating or re-using a particular effect or technique that I’d employed previously in order to keep expanding my arsenal of sound-tools.. Upon later reflection, I found that, by chance, the assorted approaches I applied to these six tracks subtly paralleled the diversity of discomfort which individuals put themselves through in the name of religion around the planet.”

Tracklist:
1. haus / transferring sorrow 02:00
2. dark (spirit servant) 04:15
3. crac 04:07
4. groupp mind 03:36
5. indentification 03:28
6. fish r friends 04:02

Torus – Feeel

Artist: Torus
Title Of Album: Feeel
Year Of Release: 18 nov 2013
Label: Sonic Router / SRR 006
Genre: Beats, Hip-Hop, Wonky, Glitch, Electronic
Quality: MP3
Bitrate: 320 kbps

Having launched our record label with his debut EP, the work of the young Dutch producer Torus, aka Joeri Woudstra, is something that’s understandably quite close to our heart. He’s someone we’ve fully grown alongside and his second EP proper, Feeel, follows March’s name-your-price Yard Sale EP in introducing a bit more of a club ready edge into his music – though he proves to still be as pensive and delicate as ever on tracks like ‘Backyard’, ‘Feeel’ and ‘Untitled’.

“To me this EP is an in-depth exploration into the sound that had emerged from the Torus EP,” Woudstra offers of the project. “I’d been trying to get as much contrast as possible between the first and the last song without losing the idea of the EP as a whole.”

“When I make music I like to work with a feeling or a vibe rather than scoring a specific moment I’ve experienced in life,” he continues. “Basically, I’d been trying to turn these vibes into songs using mostly self-made sounds so that they’d become as personal as possible. The songs are really just translations from emotion to sound – which is also the reason for the title – I felt like I could really expose myself through these songs.”

Tracklist:
1. Backyard (04:37)
2. Feeel (04:18)
3. Elsewhere (04:16)
4. Untitled (04:35)
5. Chopsticks (04:12)
6. Tribes (04:41)
7. Untitled (Kid Smpl Remix) (04:43)
8. Chopsticks (Rawdee Remix) (04:20)

Bambooman – Hollowed EP

Label: Sonic Router
Catalog#: none
Release date: 29-04-2013
Source: WEB
Format: MP3
Quality: 320 kbps
Size: 92 mb
Genre: Electronic
Style: Bass, Future Garage

Tracklist:
01. Frosted (2:18)
02. Skip (2:44)
03. Stacks (3:27)
04. Sun (1:47)
05. Irish Moss (2:29)
06. Hollowed (4:03)
07. Fields (3:55)
08. Irish Moss (Zack Christ Remix) (5:20)
09. Sun (Eckoclick Remix) (4:42)

Bambooman’s production work is a little bit of an anomaly; on the one hand it feels infallibly clean with a heavy emphasis on the punch of his kick drums, but it’s notably reliant on textures at the same time. The way he makes that level of contrast between the found sounds and the synthesized tones work is what first caught our ear through his own Sound Healers compilations and his remixes for people like Crewdson, but with his Hollowed EP the Leeds based beatsmith explores that tonal juxtaposition even further across seven original tracks.

“A large part of the EP is made up of recordings I have made along with sounds I have synthesized or vocals sent from friends,” he offers of his processes. “It’s a way I’ve been trying to work more and more. It’s basically a collection of tracks which represented the styles I was messing with at that time.”

A hip hop producer at heart, Bambooman’s experiments tend to temper the slower tempos, revelling in that slower pace. But whether he’s simply decorating the lurch and snap of tracks like ‘Stacks’ or ‘Skip’ with airy pads so that his enveloping basslines pull the focus or toying with the voices of his synths on beats like ‘Frosted’ or ‘Hollowed’, he manages to make his output sit comfortably with the low end addled zeitgeist.
