Free Music Friday
Friday comes round so fast, it'll be a whole new decade before we know it. But the arrival of Frigg's day (oh yes, look it up) heralds free MP3s the like of which the world has never known.
We're on an IDM tip this week. Honestly, I never used to like intelligent dance music, and given the option I'd still plump for stupid dance music any day, given the option. But, now my brains are less addled by MDMA than they used to be, I can appreciate there's some good stuff out there.
And that's what we're going to share with you lucky people today.
Infrabuse is up first. His 'State of Mind' EP is a free taster of a forthcoming CD release.
Bass-heavy and crunchy, this is music that ventures into glitchy realms without losing the funk. If this is the quality of the taster, I'm eagerly anticipating the final release.
Sign up for updates and download the EP here.
The production community over at IDM forums is, like all forums, a curate's egg - some posts show what a torrent of musical talent it has tapped into, others simply ask what plugins will make them sound like Aphex-cocking-Twin.
But the forum's netlabel, well that's a different matter. It currently has seven releases showcasing the cream of the forum's output. Ranging in styles from dubstep and breaks to lush down-tempo chillery, their compilations are probably the best place to start.
They've just released a new double LP - 'Continuum'.
Grab it, and the label's other free releases here.
That's it space cadets. Until next week, nanoo nanoo.
