ADDICTECH.COM FEATURED RELEASE : ASC - OUT OF SYNC : SAMURAI RED SEAL

 
The much anticipated new album from James Clements aka ASC is out now on Samurai Red Seal!

Following a series of successful, experimental singles for the label, ASC has completed his seventh solo album, and his first for Samurai Red Seal. This is also the debut artist album for the label.

'Out Of Sync' is an advanced body of work centered around his beloved 170bpm tempo, but bending the perception of music made at this tempo beyond any previous limitations.

ASC, being one of the principle creators of what came to be known as the 'Autonomic' is one of the very few that has continued to take this hazy blueprint into new territories, bullying time signatures around to create new forms that constantly challenge listeners, with his intrinsic feel for beautiful electronics as the anchor for this constant advancement. Deep, incredibly cavernous music for the mind and body.

Give it a listen! You wont be disappointed!

ADDICTECH.COM EXCLUSIVE : DUBVIRUS - TESSERACT : MUTI MUSIC



Dubvirus debuted last year with the tune ‘Music’ on the hot selling Acid Crunk Vol. 4 compilation and Muti asked for more, thus we have Tesseract, the debut EP from Dubvirus. His distinct sound is rooted in west coast Glitch Hop and dubstep and thus far it’s epic and uplifting melodic urban music.

Now a fast rising name on the West Coast electronic scene, Dubvirus has been increasingly turning heads and moving bodies with his own meticulously crafted blend of soaring melodies and floor shaking robot-crunk basslines. His productions are highlighted by unique and diverse arrangements that move people emotionally as well as physically.

In June 2012, Dubvirus started 'Resonate,' a new monthly dance event in San Francisco aimed at highlighting new talent in bass music across a variety of genres. He has received training in Music Production and Songwriting from Berklee School of Music and maintains and operates his own company, 'Dubvirus Audio,' which offers audio services including scoring, mastering, mixing, and education.

ADDICTECH.COM EXCLUSIVE : MUSTARD TIGER - BASS RATE : ADAPTED RECORDS


Adapted recordings is quickly becoming one of our favorite labels, and they are clearly a force to be reckoned with out of Australia!

Mustard Tiger's "Bass Rate" EP delivers a new technical and musical frontier, a clear step in the evolution of the project Algernon Renton has been tweaking over the past two years.

The title track combines smooth and refined melodies with heavy drops and concise sample cuts and glitches. "Patch Test" then takes the EP further into a calculated force of distinguished funk and progression, a journey in which resistance to head nodding and swaying is futile. The onslaught of innovation continues in the form of "Putty", sounding the horns whilst delivering an inviting rhythm and a bassline consisting of raw moogy fatness. The final track "Stiff Upper" ices the cake; a collaborative masterpiece with the experimental and highly acclaimed Tristan Boyle. Together they have crafted a well-rounded composition of flawless melodica, unstoppable groove elements and a bassline that encourages raunchy bodily convulsions.

Together, these tracks make up an EP which reveals a huge expansion of the Mustard Tiger sound, growing at a rapid and unpredictable rate.

ADDICTECH.COM EXCLUSIVE : ASTRO DUO - TELEPORTER/WEB WARP : ASTRO RECORDS


Once upon a time not long ago, space and time shifted through the use of electro bass and breakbeat rhythms. A wave that the rave could ride throughout the night, providing a shift to the hologram so desperately needed. A new project that opens that portal again has just been dropped off at the Addictech.com lab, and we are honored to host it for the world!

Providing the sound is Astro Duo, a new production outfit from Birmingham UK, with a conscious intent to advance bass culture with a refined approach, purpose built for sound systems. They drop a 2 track release to the masses, triggering the primal urge to connect to the music and let go into the dance.

‘Teleporter’ is a sensory jaunt to an imaginary space, filled with raw bass tones and maximum sonic clarity. ‘Web Warp’ takes a different approach, with more accessible, rounded bass and sparse ambient overtones offering a tangible landscape within which to dance.

In addition to digital format, this will also be released on 180 gram aqua blue vinyl, limited to 300 hand numbered copies and mastered at Finyl Tweak.

Fans of Tipper, Si Begg, Lawgiverz, Bil Bless, etc will add these pillars of bass for future structures to their sonic landscapes and architecture.
