ovenrake – For The Great Party ManJuly 2010 – KR042

Download Link

A chunky great slab of epic relentless dystopian Game Boy techno. While it occasionally strays into hypermelodic territory, it is quickly saved by inventive sound design, some wonky mess and the sense of space that using two synced Game Boys can provide.

DS-10 Dominator – The Smallest Party EverFebruary2010 – KR036

Download Link

As one of the rare artists who actually lives up to his boastful moniker, DS-10 Dominator has beautifully produced everything from squelchy slinky deep house, grimy electro, gabber, floaty electronica and angry duck music from his little Nintendo DS and put it all in this lovely hour long release.

Chalices Of The Past – WIZARDZZZDecember 2009 – KR035

Download Link

Hyperactive mutant pop music that seems to wonderfully combine the virtuosism of Max Tunda with the crazy data trash of GOAT80 using a variety of sound sources sequenced in LittleGPTracker.

Joss Manley – Amiga AugustNovember 2009 – KR034

Download Link

Previously known as Josstintimberlake and JT, much of Joss Manley’s music has a strong focus on complex rhythm, driving percussion, and meticulous sequencing. Often unusual rhythmic loops repeat and change incrementally, with the music constantly in transition. Sometimes patterns are set against one another, implying several time signatures at once. Later work has been described as experimental and abstract, in contrast to the more club-friendly and conventional early 1990s releases.

Reactions to his music have varied. Many of his tracks contain complex or chaotic rhythms and close harmonies which some hear as random and noisy. Fans of his recent work tend to find the value of their music to lie in its unique fusion of rhythmic and melodic elements, i. e. melodic percussive sounds, and enharmonic synthesizer patches implying numerous rhythmic and melodic lines and chord structures simultaneously. Another recurring element in Autechre’s work has been the use of extremely fast sequencing or retriggering to create a fragmented, grainy effect.

Nasty Amiga 1200 music influenced by Americer’s greatest comedian, Keegan-Michael Key.

Kittenrock Presents: The Very Best of Ibiza Chip Chillout Vol. 21August 2009 – KR032

This CD is a delight to listen to any time of the day. This chillout combiliation captures all the flavours that I expected from Ibiza’s chillout scene over the last few years. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys clubbing. You should really have a CD like this in your collection, it’s packed full of wonderful relaxing tunes.” – Good Housekeeping

“This is easily the best chillout compilation released in years, a wide selection of classic chillout tracks, balanced out with plenty of brand new and slightly more obscure tracks, which definately gives it the edge over the cash-in that was The Very Best of Ibiza Chip Chillout Vol. 20.” – Heat Magazine

“I absolutely love this music. I’m a pretty big fan of the downtempo/chillout genre but I get quite fed up with most compilations as they tend to be full of bland music which I largely just leave playing in the background. The Very Best of Ibiza Chip Chillout Vol. 21 is completely different (even from the previous 20 volumes in the series!) and really raises the bar for compilations. This package plays like an album rather than a compilation, full of really fresh, new and most importantly BEAUTIFUL music.” – The Sunday Times
