Teebs upcoming album “Ardour” was made during two major periods of Teebs’ life. Having just lost his job and with little to no money, Teebs moved into the same apartment complex as Flying Lotus and shared living quarters with another Brainfeeder affiliate, Samiyam. It was here that the beginning stages and one-half of Ardour were created. Before Teebs was aware his album was showing itself, his father who had been terminally ill, passed away. He moved back home and stopped making music. After an arduous period where he ceased work on the album altogether, Teebs was able to regain focus and finish the album at home. Thanks to You’ll Soon Know. Alpha Pup.

One of the standout tracks from ‘None An Island‘ combines Lorn’s trademark overt emotionalism, brutality and bleakness into something transcendentally beautiful. Brainfeeder labelmate Samiyam then takes ‘Brainwaves’ and converts it into a lowriding, limping journey into paranoia and fear. Lorn ups the ante yet again by returning with two new original tracks, ‘Never Enough’, which uses a distorted, rasping, alien voice to syncopate its rhythms, and ‘Until There Is No End’, which shows that Ortega’s grasp of melody is never compromised by the sheer heaviness of his tracks. You can buy Lorn’s ‘Nothing Else’ album HERE. None An Island will be released September 13th. Brainfeeder

You might have read that me and Marcelo are currently in L.A. right now and chilling at Venice Beach at the moment with my man Anthony Valadez. First thing we did when we got here was go to the Timeless show with Arthur Verocai and Miguel Atwood-Ferguson show. Eventhough we were tired as f*ck and almost fell asleep (cuz of the jetlag), we enjoyed the show tremendously though.

I took some random shots (check them after the jump) of what we’ve been up to, so I hope you like them. We visited Samiyam at his house and hung out for a bit, whilst sippin’ on some coconut juice with chunks in it. He has some sick ass shirts, which we will might be selling in the near future as well. Heard some dope new stuff of his upcoming album that’s dropping on Brainfeeder and some other remixes he did. Also we met the homie I-Ced, AFTA-1 and the ever so beautiful Nikko Grey. Loved watching her perform live tonight and looking forward to that project she was talking about with AFTA-1.
Hope to be able to post some more stuff on here later this week so stay tuned. Do-Over, Funkmosphere, Low End Theory and more coming up. Continue reading »
