Here's some fresh original music for you guys! I've been trying very hard to achieve that elusive production blend between the acoustic sounds that I love and the new age beat structures/ percussive rhythms that I find blissfully hypnotic. Please check out my new song and share it if you enjoy what you're hearing!
On a side note: I'll be spinning/performing some music live at Avalon bar in Costa Mesa, Saturday May 4. There will be an art showcase, lots of good tunes, and chill peeps to hang out with all night so come check it out!

Afta-1
The Facts
I love love loooooove the smooth sound of an electric keyboard. Kinda puts you in the mood eh? I'll be keeping tabs on Afta-1 from now on. Also, check out one of his projects called rianglecircletrianglesquare, but don't stay there too long or you'll freak out. Here's his main website afta1.com. Get stoked for the new year!

Gaslamp Killer
Nissim (with Amir Yaghmai)
Dead Vets
ft. Adrian Younge and MRR
"Brainfeeder stalwart, Gaslamp Killer, takes a break from curating mixes of the wildest Anatolian-psyche and Persian-rock breaks to focus on this massively anticipated, long-playing debut, 'Breakthrough'. He also features here in charge of the drum battery, exercising those rhythms / breaks in full effect, inspired from the impenetrably obscure records that are the mainstay in his record box.
On accompanying detail, his familiar, Gonjasufi breaks into shamanistic howl on the savage-strings of 'Veins' and the psyche-heavy, 'Apparitions'. Fellow LA-based beatmaker, Daedelus, also appears, stirring up the demented, electronic fusion of 'Apparitions'. Dimlite is also here and his contribution to the moog-heavy funk of '7 Years of Bad Luck for Fun'. A hard-hitting debut that's as breathtaking, diverse and challenging a listen in equal measure."

For a while I had been hoping GLK would be coming out with something new and look what I found? Breakthrough baby! The two tracks above are my top picks of the album (so far) and stay pretty much within the boundaries of his established sound and style. I wish I could have heard some of his stuff leading up to the Breakthrough release, but I have yet to make the short journey to Low End Theory. I know GLK has some pretty formidable DJ skills, but I'd like to see the eccentric dude prove himself with the live instruments he used to produce the album. Either way, seeing GLK perform a DJ set or live one, it'd be fun time all around.
