Fat City is back once again with the second full lenght album in the Producer series, entitled “Producer 2″. This album includes exclusive beats from big names such as: Dabrye, Harmonic 313, Martyn and Daedelus as well as rising Cali producers such as Devonwho, MrDibiase, Low limit and Mono/poly. From the UK we have my man Illum Sphere, Mike Slott & Tandy Love who bring the ruckus. All in all a good collection of electronic beats with some heavy hitters on it. The tracklist can be found after the jump and the CD can be bought at Rush Hour.

To end the year properly, we came up with the idea to sum up 2009 and let ya’ll know what we thought was epic and who ya’ll slept on. We would like to thank you all for staying loyal to the movement called Moovmnt and 2010 has a lot of newness in store for you. Our brand new website will launch early Januari, the Moovmnt Sampler releases will be dropping like hotcakes and Moovmnt TV is coming up.
Our Belgian homeboy Azer did a 2009 mix and it goes hard as you might guess. It’s a selection of some of his favorite tracks released in 2009. It was broadcasted on December 30, 2009 in the Laid Back Show on FM Brussel. Happy new year and see you on the flipside.

Harmonic 313 (Mark Pritchard) came to Sixty40 for his first ever film clip. Despite releasing seminal records since the 90′s and being on Warp Records since 1994 and being the poster child for super-technical, superbly-crafted, bass heavy, crazy-ass electronica there’d never been anything to translate his floor-filling tracks on TV.
Shot stereoscopically (i.e. on 2 identical cameras separated in space to mimic 2 eyes) the clip uses a flicking technique that was inspired by 2 frame animations of 3D photos. In this technique, a sense of depth is provided to the footage by changing between the left and right eye views between each frame. In moving footage, not only does it add a sense of depth but also a definite intensity and alternative reality to each scene. For different people, it can create a curious mental floatiness in some shots.
Imma freak, he a freak, you a freak…everybody freak! Damn this is definetely gonna be the club banger for July. Gonna push this one so hard even if I have to hand out copies to all the best local DJ’s myself. You all know Mark Pritchard and the genius producer they call Om’Mas Keith (from SA-RA Creative Partners). These two gentleman recorded “Wind It Up” at Red Bull Music Academy’s A Class Of Its Own in cologne 2007. Mike confirmed it will be released as a 12inch on Hyperdub records and allthough the audio quality isn’t that high this stream does keep you on point for the official release which we are all going to buy off course. Not sure about the release date, but probably July-ish. The release will have a Freak Mix and instrumental version on it so you know what it is son.
Mark Pritchard – Wind It Up Feat. Om’Mas Keith

Silent revolution of beauty which has been started from the love of music and slashing reality of life. Endless process, naive believing in good and dreaming of changing world. Its a careful selection of newjazzbreakfunkfusion hiptriphopbrokendubsoul TUNES which happens to be alternative for the mass pseudo-culture. via behindthebeats
