DOPE TRACK: Sieren - Blue Memories

German producer Sieren crafts some absolutely amazing UK inspired bass on the final track of a split LP with Lomovolokno for Finest Ego. It's got all the classic elements of a Burial-influenced future garage track, like vinyl crackle throughout, deep, murky bass, reverb-heavy vocals, and the all-important skittering percussion elements. And it's FUCKING FANTASTIC, and simply a taste of the entire project which I've immediately become infatuated with since discovering yesterday. Deep, introspective tunes, odd percussion, powerful bass and a profound ethereality make for an awesome sonic combination, and these 2 new producers absolutely fucking kill it. Track 2 alone (Eena by Lomovolkono) is worth the 8 euro price tag on bandcamp.

DOPE TRACK - Crazy Fingers - Chinese Kitty Litter

It's been several days since I've posted, life's been hectic since moving home from my summer camp work, and I'll be leaving for Europe on Wednesday so activity on this blog should be fairly slow in the near future... Never fear, my 1st Steps EP is on the brink of completion (album art shot & everything), and I'll do my best to post dope shit when I find it!!! Case in point: it's been a minute since ATX brother Mark Rubin AKA Crazy Fingers has posted any tracks, but he's finally come back with an amazing tune, Chinese Kitty Litter. Organically beautiful oriental ambiences with calculated glitchiness and that Crazy Fingers thwomp make for a complete package of a badass tune. Lovin this shit.
