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.

Shout out to Olan and the other at All City Records for providing us with a shitload of music these past few months.

My favourite joint is “Space” by Sam so pre-order the EP at Rush Hour if you want the whole shebang..

I’m really glad the legendary BTS Radio is back. Andrew Meza started a movement in our genre. And if you forgot about it, or never got the chance to check it out, it won’t be a waste of time if you check the BTS archive in the next few months. Now Andrew started where he left off and will continue to bring you quality mixes/podcasts. Up first…. Ras G..AIRHORN!!
Ras G is a commanding force in Los Angeles and a classic example of what artistry is. Always pushing his production limits and bending his sound to a point that really make you believe he’s from outer space. His live shows have a reputation of blowing out sound systems and shaking walls to the point of deterioration.
This exclusive set for BTS is only a taste of the destruction he can bring to speakers…Take cover. Tracklist after the jump.

Dutch youngin’ Jameszoo (Beatt-apes crew member) has been DJ’ing for quite some time now and has played along side of people like Cinnaman (Beat Dimensions). Also keep an eye for him on the production side, but more about that on a different note. His style is very electronic and experimental, yet he tries to put some soulfulness in the mix. Clothing brand No Rest For The Obsessed decided to approach him to make a mixtape and here it is…“NRFTO MIX 001″. Y’skid did the recording, Tommy Smits the photography and NRFTO did the cover.

Red Bull Music Academy 2010 participant Illum Sphere drops the first vinyl ep of a two part album. ‘Long Live The Plan’ features six new tracks plus a Samiyam remix. I personally first heard of Illum Sphere from MyManHenri, who put me on to this Illum Sphere Dublab Mix. After hearing the 7′ with Mono/Poly we knew Illum Sphere was someone to follow in 2010. This new EP is scheduled for a december release, but already got a first spin on Benji B and Mary Anne Hobbs. You can head over to Fat City for more info, or just follow Illum Sphere on Twitter..

Volume 2 continues where the first left off. Twenty exclusive beats from forward thinking producers the world over. Exciting and contrasting instrumentals from known producers such as Danny Breaks (Alphabet Zoo / Droppin’ Science), Dorian Concept (Kindred Spirits), Dimlite (All City), Ras G (Poobah) & Samiyam (Brain Feeder), Exile (Sound In Color), Fulgeance (Musique Large), Nosaj Thing (Alpha pup) Dizz1, Low Limit & Tiago, Devon, Busy…and more
Compiled by ‘beat connoisseurs’ Cinnaman & Jay Scarlett, the compilation touches on many different angles of ‘this music’. There’s introspective, tripped out and buzzing synth scapes, short popping electronic songs to full-on MPC party thumpers.
Ever since its first releases, almost three years ago, Beat Dimensions has aided the developments in beat orientated music, becoming almost a genre in itself. Releasedate October 6th. Pre-Order now on Rushhour.
