Music reviews, and writing for Surviving The Golden Age!

2012-01-02T14:01:00.003-05:00

It's been a few months since my last review was posted for Avey Tare's melancholy, rhythm induced, watery solo debut, Down There. Since then, I have been active in my efforts to keep the music alive in the absence of my radio show, Adrift In The Airwaves. I have been producing dubstep mixes and mashups and have been trying to DJ in areas around CT where the underground electronic scene has been blossoming.

Very recently, I have been hired for a writing internship to write music reviews for Surviving The Golden Age, an eclectic music blog that specializes in DJ mixes, mashups, as well as hip-hop and electronic music. I decided that I will be posting my reviews for Surviving The Golden Age on Airdrift||Signals as well, and will be including a link to the original post. My first review covers The Nomad's sixth LP Perilous Times, a fantastic tribute to reggae, hip-hop, and dub music. The review goes live on Friday, so stay tuned, and keep on drifting.

Avey Tare - Down There

2011-08-24T03:06:00.007-04:00

There is not a moment to spare from the beginning of Down There. Instantly Animal Collective member, Avey Tare, pulls listeners into a swampscape of blurry voices and wet beats for his debut solo effort. Animal Collective are known to craft songs that experiment with the production and style of modern music, to such a huge extent, that their music has gained a considerable cult following. This steady rise in popularity has only since exploded by the time the group released their mainstream breakout album, Merriweather Post Pavilion, in 2009. Their music can be described as freak-folk, or neo-psychedelic, but that sort of statement might even be restricting considering the group’s constant evolution. The soundscapes and emotions that Animal Collective produce in their albums, such as their guitar driven, Sung Tongs, or sample based Strawberry Jam, make their records have a true cohesion and are a real treat to experience as a full album, and a journey into the minds of these awe-inspiring musicians. However, the exclusion of three quarters of the group does not stop Avey Tare with this brilliant, surreal escape of an album, Down There. This nine track solo release goes many places, and is best experienced as a whole. Starting off with “Laughing Hieroglyphic,” Down There takes listeners under, and it flows from one song to the next, just as Avey’s voice flows next to the beat. “Glass Bottom Boat” is a short interlude, which splits the album in a way, and sets the tone for the remainder of the tracks. The swimming and water themes, when combined with the musical instruments and electronic beats, which sound as if they are just under the surface of the lagoon, leave listeners in the depths of Avey’s mind. And when thinking back on all the popular music that is designed by the dollar, and made to follow all the rules, it surely is a joy to experience the real sounds and real emotions of Avey Tare, and descend into the vast world and whimsical madness of Animal Collective’s most prominent songwriter.

Shabazz Palaces – Black Up

2011-08-22T16:16:00.005-04:00

When Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler of Brooklyn, New York, worked as part of the jazz hip-hop trio, Digable Planets, their easy-going alternative rap rocked the 90’s, when hip-hop was still in its early stages and growing in popularity. Now more than a decade later, Butterfly is back with a new name, and a new group, pushing a sound that burns a new chapter into the history of hip-hop. Based out of Seattle, Butterfly, newly dubbed as Palaceer Lazaro, heads Shabazz Palaces. Many excited fans were already buzzing from the release of Shabazz’s first two self-released EPs, Of Light and a self-titled EP. If these two releases meant anything in the world of hip-hop, it was a sure sign of something else entirely. Come summer 2011 and Shabazz Palaces releases their first full-length, Black Up, a collection of spaced out beats that build up and dissolve several times over for each track, leaving listeners entranced by the album’s mystifying and near-flawless production. Boasting a record full of sounds that make no compromises for accessibility, Black Up contains no discernible radio singles. The last time a hip-hop record so blatantly left listeners to do most of the work was 2004’s hip-hop album, Madvillainy, now arguably one of the greatest hip-hop releases of the decade. Now it can certainly be a risk to leave a record absent of any standout hits, but with Shabazz Palaces, this is clearly not the case. Black Up transforms every couple minutes, and Palaceer Lazaro has a way to make it work in the best way possible. Only time will tell how well this record will be received, but perhaps time will catch up with the sound that is contained on this newly released LP. For now, Shabazz Palaces own a sound that hip-hop has never really heard before. Check out their new record to hear for yourself the future of hip-hop, and always support the artist. Buy their records, see their shows.

Thank you, radio listeners (+5,000 podcast downloads!!), and goodbyes.

2011-04-12T22:30:00.006-04:00

First off I would like to say that my time here at UConn has been some of the best years of my life. Getting into radio programming here at WHUS happened almost by chance, as members from the station came to my Culture Of The College Media class to give a presentation on UConn’s radio station... I was hooked from my very first semester, and have been at the controls for Adrift In The Airwaves for over three years now.

Early on, Adrift started out as a very different show than it is now. I started off playing lots of psychedelic music, such as Pink Floyd and Animal Collective, and branched out into other genres of alternative rock and post-rock, such as Portugal. The Man or Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Since that time, my show has inevitably evolved and transformed as my musical interests shifted as well.

The springtime of 2009 was the first time that I was legitimately exposed to quality hip-hop music, as I started to get into the likes of MF DOOM, Common, Madlib, and Mos Def, and felt the need to start incorporating this into my show as well. I was also becoming more interested in electronic music, specifically that of Derek Vincent Smith, as his productions that he creates under the moniker of Pretty Lights baited me with their incredibly catchy hooks. I felt like my show was taking a turn to a more lively and energizing listening experience.

During the summer of 2010, I moved in to live with a few friends, including fellow DJ Daysix (producer name BEATGOSZIP), and that summer proved to change the nature of my radio show almost completely. Dubstep was the new music genre that I was exploring. After coming across this new form of music many times, it was this period that I lived the true life of a bass head. Going to DJ shows in West Hartford and throwing raves at our apartment only proved to me how fast this genre was catching on. I became hopelessly addicted to the earth-shattering bass.

Adrift In The Airwaves, as it is right now, incorporates all of these different forms of music, blending psychedelia with hip-hop beats, and electronica with dubstep. I am happy to announce that my radio podcast (which I started just over a year ago) has surpassed a whopping 5,000 downloads online! As of right now there are a total of 5,349 podcast downloads from all of you listeners! I could have never expected such a positive response to my show, which I have always put a lot of love into every week. I can only continue to work just as hard to deliver you loyal listeners the best music that I can.

Sadly, I will be retiring Adrift In The Airwaves from UConn’s “Radio for The People” in just a few weeks and Monday May 2nd will most likely be my last show. It is a bittersweet end to the very strong run that I have had as a radio DJ on WHUS, but I will always keep Adrift In The Airwaves alive and will keep the show up and running as often as I can.

Stay a fan of the facebook page, for future updates, and even go back through the podcast to listen to some of your favorite past shows. I really enjoyed my time on WHUS and I hope you did too. DJ Dark Flow~

Easy Star All-Stars - Dubber Side of The Moon

2010-12-04T17:44:00.018-05:00

Another Dub Side? Easy Star All-Stars, the same guys behind the reggae cover albums for Dark Side of The Moon, Radiohead’s Ok Computer, and Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, unveil a brand new release: Dub Side of The Moon, but remixed and reworked, and inevitably redubbed; Dubber Side of The Moon. These new tracks, redone with a more atmospheric and heavy bass quality, resonate proudly through any good pair of speakers, and you can tell instantly that these songs were meant to surround you, and pull you in. From the very start of “Speak To Me / Breathe,” it is obvious that this is a re-imagining of the classic Pink Floyd album. Synth programming and sound effects add all the more tribute to the intricacies of Pink Floyd’s masterpiece.

But all comparisons aside, was another Dub Side really necessary? As Easy Star All-Stars toured almost maniacally over the course of 2009, bringing their reggae dub music to 25 different countries across the the world, band members noticed the various styles and bass fueled sounds that have taken root in reggae, such as dubstep and the futuristic electronic elements that associate with this emerging musical phenomenon. The All-Stars responded to this new landscape of the electronic music scene by continuing to embrace and explore the heavier bass concepts of music rooted in reggae and dub. Lem Oppenheimer, of Easy Star Records, commented on this musical approach, saying that to hand over the tracks to some of the prominent electronic dub producers, "it seemed like a good way to bring some of this newly developing futurist reggae right into [the] music." Examples of this can be found in one of the most dubstep tracks of the album, “Money,” remixed by The Alchemist.

Every track has such an impressive production quality and tone that it is nearly impossible to not get lost while listening to these newly remixed dub tracks; their music, which explores many universal themes such as money, time and the descent into madness. Enjoy another engaging, space-dub extravaganza, and stay adrift!

Teebs - Ardour

2010-11-24T17:41:00.006-05:00

Teebs, a popular artist on the Brainfeeder record label started by Flying Lotus, releases his debut album and blows all other producers out of the water! His multi-textured compositions come to life in Ardour, arguably one of the best beat albums of 2010. His soft beats and melodic chimes have a fulfilling presence, and I cannot stress it enough that his work bears a therapeutic, healing power for any avid headphones junkie. From the very start, “You’ve Changed” comes in among fluttering flutes and a soft beat. Songs like “Moments,” “Wind Loop,” and “Gordon” are a few of the many standouts in this album, and they all offer something different to listeners looking for something fresh and new. “Long Distance,” the only track Teebs decided to allow vocals on, shows the incredible potential his music has for lyrics, even though every song really speaks for itself. The music he produces works really well as background music, and is even more of a treat for those who choose to actively listen to it, considering the very specific attention to detail. For the most part, it is hard to put into words the feelings that flow out of Ardour. A complex series of thoughts and emotions are captured here, and it is certainly a beautiful experience that shines all throughout. Try to throw on this album and not get lost.

Note: Teebs is also a visual artist, and does all of the artwork that’s attached to his musical releases. You can check out some of his artwork here, and you can also check out Ardour here.

MiM0SA - Silver Lining

2010-11-24T16:59:00.006-05:00

Just two months after his late-night dubstep EP Your Love, MiM0SA comes out with another stunner, his super melodic, big bass release, Silver Lining. This new album, layered with bright melodies and atmospheric textures, sounds like a bright, sunny morning. Airy and vibrant is the feeling that is captured on most of these tracks. “The Higher Consciousness,” a short opener, carries the feel of the album pretty well, as it soars over the spacious skyline of your mind. Some of the middle tracks, such as the title track and “Drippin,” make a heavy, yet emotionally melodic mark on your ears, while some of his later tracks, such as his drum and bass-y “Detour” and “Pushing Little Daisies” drop in to screech electronic bursts of intensity, before settling back down into the final track, “Sideways,” an appropriate finish to a stellar album. Check out Silver Lining if you have not already, and prepare for a beautiful, inspiring musical journey.

Flying Lotus – Pattern+Grid World

2010-10-15T11:18:00.010-04:00

Brace yourself for a new breed of FlyLo, with a new EP just months after his third full-length space opera, videogame drama, Cosmogramma. There’s more to be heard here, as Steven Ellison, the man behind the mask, takes you somewhere completely different once again. Pattern+Grid World tastes like a whole other dimension, with the otherworldly sounds and patterns that make an indistinguishable texture and quality, and we have to wonder if Ellison is really human. “Clay,” the opening track of Pattern+Grid World, sounds alien to our ears, but takes us to a time and place where music was reinvented, and had taken its own course in synth droning beats. If music really is universal, this EP might as well belong in a whole other universe (did I mention enough space imagery already?). “Kill Your Co-Workers” makes FlyLo’s drum and bass debut, with more arcade elements, as you can hear Ellison shooting for another high score. Although his beats are frenetic, and his synths get hazy, his melody sticks with you. His next track, “Pieface,” starts off with an abstract snare and cymbal, which inevitably builds into another 8-bit crescendo. Whether you are listening to his gurgling space jam, “Time Vampires,” or his synth driven “Camera Day,” Ellison has something vastly different for your ears. At just over 18 minutes, this EP is short and sweet, and although it may feel like an acquired taste, it is still a welcome addition for any Flying Lotus fan.

Pattern+Grid World can be viewed here, where you can also stream FlyLo's track, "Camera Day." Enjoy!

Bassnectar - Timestretch EP

2010-10-04T07:43:00.001-04:00

For an EP with four new tracks and a presence that will dominate your sound system, Timestretch, a release by dubstep producer Bassnectar, makes no compromises. The explosive opener, “Here We Go,” a popular live track, takes you straight into the mind of Lorin Ashton, the mastermind behind Bassnectar, as the sliced up vocals and sirens build into an eruption of bass beats and roaring synthesizers. If you liked the monstrous build, do not fret, because Ashton brings it back later in the second half of the song. Each track has something different to offer, as “Bass Head” proves to rock your brain back and forth, with its robotic vocals, hip-hop build and timpani hits that drop into your consciousness, where they will probably stay long after hearing the song. Knowing Bassnectar and his insanely loud production, you better get ready for the next track, because there is no time to rest when listening to Timestretch. “Blast Off” crashes right into your ears from the very start, and instantly takes off with a bass that sweeps and resonates through the beat. It builds and keeps going until the epic halfway marker, where a breakdown gives way to the largest part of the song. A crowd of people can be heard counting down to one, where the song will literally “blast off,” through your speakers and your eardrums. The ecstatic moment of this release is pure adrenaline, and the song keeps up the pace as it slowly fades out. This leads listeners to the title track, which is arguably the calmest song on the EP, but don’t let that fool you. Maybe calm is not exactly the right word, because for the dubstep prodigy that Bassnectar is, calm is a relative term. Still, “Timestretch” gives listeners a few minutes to breathe, as the medium tempo hip-hop beat and bass become a little more reserved. Nothing particularly crazy happens during these beats, except for a very solid groove that is still just as addicting as the previous tracks mentioned. Besides these four new original tracks, Ashton is generous with his EP, including four new remixes to take over the second half (two “Bass Head” remixes, a “Timestretch” remix, and a remix of the non-EP song, “Maximum”). The second half echoes the first pretty well, while still offering new sounds to the mix. Check out Bassnectar’s Timestretch EP, and stay tuned for his upcoming EP Wildstyle, due out October 19^th.

Omar Rodriguez Lopez – Tychozorente

2010-09-19T20:32:00.006-04:00

For one of the most experimental and explosive songwriters to appear over the past couple decades, multi-instrumentalist Omar Rodriguez Lopez has clearly made a name for himself in this generation of music. From his early start in the hardcore/alternative rock group At The Drive-In, to his departure with musical partner Cedric Bixler-Zavala to explore the musical realms of psychedelic and progressive rock with The Mars Volta and beyond, Rodriguez Lopez has made an impressive track record, which will now include, his seventeenth solo album, Tychozorente.

Tychozorente makes such a departure from any of Rodriguez Lopez’s previous music projects by the fact that this is his first release without any guitars whatsoever. In addition to this, it is also a first for his girlfriend, Ximena Sarinana Rivera, to sing in English. Her vocals are still as beautiful as ever in the electronic, synth-programmed tracks that appear on Tychozorente. The eight tracks are shared equally, as they go from Ximena songs (in English as well as Spanish), to Rodriguez Lopez's spoken word Spanish compositions, and back again. There are some very eerie frequencies that resonate through some songs, while others take on an exceptionally melodic and upbeat tone, when compared to some of Rodriguez Lopez’s previous output as a songwriter and producer. Every song has a steady rhythm, since this album focuses more on produced electronic beats than the standard music group that Rodriguez Lopez assembles for his many different projects. Overall, at just over a half hour, this new release by Rodriguez Productions is a very enjoyable, and mellow, musical journey. The cover art is compelling and as weird as usual, echoing the wash of sound that is to be heard when listening to Omar’s work.

Tychozorente can be streamed online for free on Omar Rodriguez Lopez’s website here. Check the album out, and stay tuned for more Rodriguez Lopez in the very near future, because two more albums will be dropping before the end of the year. Cheers!

Album Reviews Will Now Be Coming Through

2010-09-12T18:51:00.005-04:00

To make my blog more exciting, I decided that I am now going to start doing album reviews of music that I have enjoyed enough to feature in my radio show Adrift In The Airwaves.

For my first album review, I decided to take a look at Mount Kimbie's debut full-length, Crooks & Lovers.

Released on July 19^th of this year, Mount Kimbie's album, Crooks & Lovers is the first full-length from the electronic duo. Most of their music takes on an experimental, minimalistic vibe, that verges into the realms of dubstep and ambient music. Personally, I haven’t known of Mount Kimbie for long, but after developing a huge crush on their song “Maybes” remixed by one of their fellow contemporaries James Blake (who is also highly recommended), I had to check out their first album to hear more of what these guys were up to.

Crooks and Lovers is something best to be played through your headphones, as the atmospheric synth and guitar textures make a rewarding contrast with the wobble of the bass that can be found in most of their songs. From the very start, the album picks up with “Tunnelvision,” a short prelude echoing with vocals that sound like a distant memory. There is no time wasted on this LP, when songs like “Would Know” and “Before I Move Off” follow close by. Mount Kimbie’s reserved blend of ambient, minimal, and dubstep elements, when mixed with cut up samples and phrases of soulful vocals, makes for a very enjoyable listen. Nearly every song starts off as a simple beat, slowly building with added melodic textures. “Carbonated” is a great example of this, as a simple, empty beat slowly reverberates over time and fills your ears with sound. The peak and release of songs like “Carbonated” and “Field” are perfectly timed. Most songs are about three to four minutes long, clocking their debut album at just under forty minutes, making Crooks and Lovers a very soft but compelling musical journey. Every track is finely crafted, made for listening while relaxing, with the bass turned up. The best way to describe this group and their debut release would have to be minimalist, ambient, dubstep. As for the dubstep element, there is nothing abrasive about the sounds in this album. Every note hits your ears softly, but the overall effect is a beautiful mix of atmospheric textures, powerful beats, and moving vocals. Check out Crooks and Lovers, and try not to fall in love.

Minor podcast errors, an open letter

2010-04-25T21:33:00.006-04:00

Dark Flow here,

Since getting lucky and finding a podcast hosting site for free, there was always a chance that there would be minor issues. The site occasionally has a glitch and doesn't allow me to post my shows for a bit of time (sometimes more than a week).

My main communication and area that I update is my Facebook page, where I will be posting tomorrow's show (4/26), likely on mediafire or megaupload. Until then, I may consider moving my show between podcast hosting sites, or consider finding a good site that I can subscribe for the show.

I hope you enjoy Adrift In The Airwaves tomorrow 8AM Eastern Time till 10AM. There are lots of new tunes (and some awesome older ones) that are ready to speak to you. Tune in on the drive to work at WHUS 91.7FM, or if you're by your computer listen live online at Whus.org!! You won't be disappointed.

Music, FREE for Download, Satellite Beats 2005-2008

2009-06-30T15:24:00.001-04:00

I’ve decided to present to you all of my music as Satellite Beats (well, not all of it. I’ve used other names before, and if I did release absolutely everything, there would be a lot of shit, haha). This includes a 6 track album of Demos, the remix Ep, Satellite Remixes, and a 12 song Mix of music that I have made between 2005 and 2008 (Also a remix track that I felt didn’t belong on the Ep). This is the music that I am the most proud of. Most of it is me, except where noted: Demos Track 2: Guitar Track 3: Drums Remixes (They’re remixes, duh.) Mix Track 3: Guitar Track 4: Vocals, Drums, Synth Track 8: Guitar Besides this, I have used samples and various music programs and software instruments to help me make the music that I am giving to you today. I hope you enjoy this as much as I have enjoyed making this music over the years. A lot of my music tends to be pretty dark, and I guess that’s just my creative output. Some of my influences for this music vary: Psychedelic, dub, techno, electronica, industrial, etc., but there’s definitely a good mix in there. Enjoy! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HIAHA2M2 http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?0wmoct2umig You can check out my page on facebook for other related news on new recordings, covers, remixes, and whatnot at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Satellite-Beats/44541212810?ref=s

For Those of You That Are Interested (NIN Remix Ep)

2009-06-30T01:41:00.002-04:00

Over the last few years, I have made a few remixes I would like to share, specifically NIN remixes. Since their album, Year Zero came out, they had released the multitracks of every song on the album, and I decided it would be fun to create my own renditions of several of the songs. Overall, I have a bunch of unfinished projects (happens a lot :/), but there are five ones that I have finished that I am very pleased with. I decided I should share this with anyone I could, since I know someone out there will appreciate this. My favorite ones are tracks 1,2 and 4. For track 1, I remixed most of the song, but included sounds heard in other parts of Year Zero. Track 2 is the only one of the five that sounds the most like the original. I basically followed the same structure as the original, but inserted lots of little pieces that really enhance the song. I extended it in the beginning, between the two verses and at the end as well. Track 3 is slower and more haunting. You can barely hear the strings in the original, and I really wanted to bring that out for the remix. Track 4 is all over the place, and wild as hell! It's probably the loudest of them all, or at least tied up with track 2. Track 5 is the last but not least. This one is more guitar and piano driven than the original, which was more distorted. Overall, I have to say that I'm pleased with the result of the mixes. I hope you are too! http://www.filefactory.com/file/ag78bda/n/Satellite_Remixes_zip http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?0wmoct2umig http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SABR9V54
