FREE TUNE: Cameron King Brown - GOLD

A brother from Austin just posted this incredible instrumental, essentially a pulsating, evolving synth line over some simple bass and sparse, airy flourishes. This tune is like potato chips, I just can't stop listening...

-A shining ray of hope for ATX's next wave of producers. Look out for a jøøls remix of this in the near future!!!

DOPE TRACK: Maidu - The Way I See You (Jack Sparrow Remix)

Maidu, a collaboration between two anonymous producers, recently dropped an EP for their track "The Way I See You" on Smudge Music. The remix by Jack Sparrow is easily my favorite cut - featuring vocals heavily reminiscent of Portishead and trip-hoppy groove and depth, combined with Jack Sparrow's awesome delicate yet driving rhythmic dubstep percussion. The original track is excellent as well - it's got squelchy Tipper-esque synths and an eastern thwomp feel. CHECK IT

FREE MUSIC: For The Win Records - New Ears LP

Lojik is so amazing I can't believe I haven't heard about him before this week. The track below (the one that introduced me to the producer) is a beautifully laid back, expansive steppy tune, and part of a 13-track free LP put out by For The Win Records, which features more melodic, atmospheric, chilled out and deep dubstep.

jøøls - Now on Facebook!

Isn't social media just grand? Of course it its. Well from now on I'll be taking advantage of the internet as a means of connecting people and music as much as I can or is necessary. or whatever. What that really means is I've set up a facebook page for my producer alias, jøøls, which is now linked to this blog! (If I've managed to set everything up correctly...)

I know i've barely posted anything since before summer started, but now that I've got my bearings at my summer work I'll finally be able to use my free time productively, that is for posting awesome free tunes and other stuff, particularly releases from myself as jøøls. Within the next day or so I'll release a collaborative track between myself and Mark Rubin AKA Crazy Fingers, created on the day of days, 4/20 2012.

So without further ado, here's some links and stuff. Click'em and let the music get you HIGHHHHHHHHHHH
