We now turn to Lot49 for the latest in Disco-Tech news…What’s new in the world of Lot49 today, Lot49?
“Straight off the back of his epic remix of Dylan Rhymes’ and Tom Real’s Godzilla, Fussy Boy returns to the scene with his first killer single – “Jonni.” This rocket of a tune starts with an unassuming Tech groove and cascades into a searing synth frenzy that has the early signs of becoming Fussy Boy’s trademark sound. Showing partiality towards fierce peak time numbers, as demonstrated here with “Jonni” it’s easy to see why Fussy Boy has already gained the support of Mstrkrft, Boys Noize, D.I.M. and the like and looks set to make a heavy mark on the Indie Dance/Nu Disco scene this year.”
The F5 Ana_Sia-Caine that tore apart the intarwebz Monday has returned for another bout of lazer-bass mind-melting. 507projex is still sitting on the Sovereign Sect footage from last Friday; as soon as @rtn can finish all the essays people are asking him to write he’ll have time to edit it together and we will surely post and disseminate to all you electronic music fiends. Here is Part 2 (DUH) of An F5 Ana_Sia-Caine…BOOM-ba-ba-BOOMboxx.
Some things are best when doled out in small doses. Or rather, in mega doses twice a year like birthdays and half-birthdays.
Last Friday, the Minneapolis electronic-womp faithful showed up to the Loft for their bi-annual bass-lazering massacre courtesy of San Fransisco’s empress of glitch, Ana Sia. Part one of ohhh probably two. Sovereign Sect is on deck.
Another frenzied weekend of straight dance party is coming through Minnesota in the form of an F5 Ana Sia-caine at the Loft and all out synth warfare down in Rochester for Family Jam 6.
Sacred tones, busting sonic barriers, deep space explorations into the galaxies of glitch, idm, dubstep, ambient and beyond…One must be riding the stellar soundship, HipGnosis. Colleague of Glitch.Fm’er, Sugarpill, HipGnosis (Eric Young) is an electronic music producer definitely worth having on your iPod: 5-starred. Here’s a blurb about HipGnosis hijacked from his Soundcloud page:

LA-based Sugarpill, a top-notch glitch/future blap/lazer bass music producer and co-maestro behind Glitch.fm’s Polybeat Plant broadcast, has released a brand new mixtape, Snark Spaks on a Curved Table, on Soundcloud. Following in the fashion of his Glitch.fm show and previous mixtapes like Whompsticle, Snark Spaks on a Curved Table is fifty minute foray into high-intensity, pon de floor, dance music. Enjoy.
Nothing is better than bringing new artists to your craniums. That’s why we can’t enough of sharing Bartlomein with ya’ll. Here’s his latest booty blappin’ soundscape to evaporate into the Soundcloud, “Wallace,” a track composed like a fine short story…quite the thoughtful composition, indeed.
About one year ago, 507projex had the misfortune of not being able to get grumpy with Colorado’s gooey-swamp beat producer, VibeSquaD (Aaron Holstein). Last Saturday, we finally got our chance at everyone’s favorite booze-rhyming venue, the Cabooze.
Take the reigns from DJ Mike Moilanen, Holstein quickly trebucheted the crowd into an esoteric dance frenzy only attainable vis-a-vis his signature glitchy-blap-Colorado-lovestep–and we were there to capture the madness.
We usually keep it pretty high voltage around here at 507projex, but for a slow-lane change of pace on this final Friday of February, we’re bringing you the full scoop on Minneapolis-based music producer, Mike Swoop.
Swoop’s new album, New Love, dropped February 5th is now available on Bandcamp for 10 USD. So press play and enjoy the smooth, jazzy beats of Mistah Mike Swoop…
Read what Jack Spencer of the AV Club has written about New Love:
Mike Swoop is a producer who sometimes collaborates with MCs, but his debut album is far from your average rap record. New Love is a collection of smooth, quiet songs that are richly textured and pleasantly bass-heavy. The largely instrumental album fuses samples and synthesized sounds with live elements to create a lush aesthetic that manages to sound both complex and stripped-down. Blending jazz, dub, and funk with a hip-hop mentality, the downtempo grooves recall the jazz-influenced rap output of the Native Tongues posse in the late ’80s and early ’90s. Twin Cities rappers Toki Wright, Big Quarters, Kavorkian, and Allpurpose provide the sole voices here (save for a few samples strewn throughout). For the most part, the MCs fit right in with Swoop’s well-defined sound, with Mr. Wright in particular sounding comfortable over the slowed grooves of “Let It Go.” Song titles are sort of a moot point here, as the tracks blend together in the best way possible. (Fans of Thievery Corporation and chill music will definitely enjoy the ambience.) In the end, questioning whether New Love is “hip-hop” doesn’t really matter—the album is less a genre exercise than a mood piece, a collection of deep cuts sure to provide the necessary head bobs in times of repose.
Recently, friend of 507projex, APAD (Aaron Peterson, of Cymatic Rawk Show, Friends of Friends, WBPN, et al.) launched his Soundcloud profile and within days he had uploaded well over an hour of wobbletastic space-funk beats for your electronically-sonical imbibement. More to come from this fella, for sure…
For now, here is his latest upload, a grimey bubble of LFO, “Rabbit Hole.”
