Prolix and Gridlok’s new EP, courtesy of RAM Records, sees a return of the dark, deep and heavy sounds that the two artists have gained a reputation for creating. Prolix’s near on immaculate discography is certainly not tainted by this release, if anything it’s further enhanced. Like any good collaborators, Prolix and Gridlok know each other’s styles very well and[...]
A new signing for RAM, comes the amazing Chords. A man who has risen up from the ground in astounding fashion. He’s delivered two amazing tracks titled Biting Point and the aptly named Amygdala. His previous tracks have smashed the clubs already and with his new collaboration with RAM his next are bound to be even bigger. With comments already[...]
“Ginseng Smash” is everything that’s wrong with contemporary electronic music: monotonous vocal samples layered poorly over horrible arpeggios that sound as if they’ve been taken directly from a 70′s “Music Of The Future” BBC documentary. Production-wise, the super deep dub-influenced bass which juts in every now and again is the only thing that gives away the fact that this track[...]

Top o the mornin’ Tony! The ‘Faceless’ EP has just landed on Prime Volta. The opening track, ‘Atom’, is a well balanced mix of melodic leads and sawtooth wobbly bits. How were the initial ideas laid out into the arranger? I use Ableton Live 9 which personally I think is amazing for a fast workflow. Everything that I do basically[...]
If you listen to this album expecting what you know to be the Daft Punk sound, you will not get what you want. This album is like nothing the French duo has ever attempted before, that said it is like nothing anybody has tried before. Random Access Memories is that rarest of things, truly innovative. By looking back to the[...]
Calling this EP a work of art wouldn’t do it justice. Primarily because, it sounds pretentious, and that certainly isn’t what this EP is about. It’s perfectly constructed, in a way which is subtle yet aurally explosive. There’s no need for relentless bass and throbbing loops of grating noise. First Fires is beautiful; a set of rolling sections easing into[...]
Hey guys, we just got a heads up about your new remix EP titled ‘The Revolution Time Remixes’. Can you tell us more about this? The EP is a remix project of YT’s third (and ground breaking) album, Revolution Time. The 4 tracks that we picked from the album were the stand out tunes for us, and having a long[...]

On the 29th April V Recordings released ‘PLANET[...]

Kelvin: Hi, my name’s Kelvin and I’m half of Placid. I’ve been making music since[...]
