Brief post because I’m busy with some (quite interesting and fun) school work.
Dj Zinc - Steroidz [Bingo beats, 2007]New, retarded d&b from Zinc-meister. Ep entitled “In bass we trust”. Buy at your favorite record store.
Damero - Passage To Silence (Feat Apparat) [Bpitch, 2007]Wonderful debut album from Marit Posch with a lot of different styles. Not too different from Apparat & Ellen Allien’s Orchestra of bubbles which i really enjoyed. With vocals in this sort of music I often feel like it’s superfluous, but here it fits right in (like [...]
Hug - Fluteorgie [Kompakt, 2007] (buy)John Dahlbäck’s alter ego Hug has an album out on Kompakt called “Heroes” full of fine tunes. A couple of really hot tracks, so well worth your dough. Will this dude ever slow down on outputting stuff? I hope not.
No swimming occured (postponed it to tomorrow). Did see Epidemic - very amusing and good movie. No school work accomplished. Did see Midaircondo (now no longer a trio but a duo) at filmfestivalen’s party tent - decent concert but the beatless stuff didn’t really appeal to me and the björkish vocals got a bit too [...]
Visited The Eye yesterday, guests included dj mehdi and kavinsky of Ed Bangers Records. I didn’t stay long, just grabbed a beer basically. The little I heard was nice.
Harry Axt - Magik [Grand petrol, 2006] (buy)Steve Bug recommendation(!).
Tomorrow will consist of swimming and then watching von Trier’s Epidemic, after that I hope I can get [...]

Saw Vikarien yesterday. Nothing special at all. Made me disappointed and even more disgruntled about the swedish 2006 film year.
Pantha du prince - Asha [Dial, 2007] (buy)New album, ‘This bliss’, from the prince (Hendrik Weber) and it is of course delicious. Emo-techy (*giggle*), minimal grooves with symphonic and intricate melodies set in multi layered, deep [...]
Whaaag! I smash my head against pointy objects. Punishing myself for missing some serious bad ass releases of 2006, from artists and a label I love[tm] to boot. Gotta catch em all.
Anders Ilar - A day ago [Narita, 2006] (buy)From the spectacular album Nightwidth comes this beautiful piece of techno. Living music, it’s giving me [...]
Had my first two lectures today. The first was in the “Programming languages” course which is about understanding and implementing lexers, parsers, interpreters and eventually (simple) compilers. It really seems interesting, but quite tough. The second was in “Systems programming in C”, I know C quite well so the introduction to the language didn’t really [...]
Steve Bug - Wet [Poker flat, 2007] (buy)Wet’n’dry EP from Bug. Solid quality release, both sides bringing something unique to the table. Cop it.
John Dahlbäck - Now Its Not Summer (Stephan Bodzin remix) [Systematic, 2007] (buy)Dahlbäck gets remixed by Bodzin. Good set-up and a fine slice of minimal tech house business. It’s winter and today we even got some snow (that melted after a couple of hours…).
I’ve had a very chill weekend once again, was actually planning to [...]
Been lurking over at databahn.se’s forums for a bit.
Optiroc - Shake it B.B“A new 45 minutes mix for the good old ghettoblaster. Mainly old electro beats, breaths, sync pulses, cowbells, flangers and all that shit.” Old school electro funk, a great mix.
Two upcoming gbg electro club nights:I will definetly be at pustervik the 8th!
Okay, no hip-hop this time but Lucky Pierre and a Play Paul track.
Play Paul - La la land (Scratch massive & sex schön remix) [Luscious, 2006]Nice bouncy dancefloor remix. Play Paul is apparently gonna be here at club Elektriska Svanen the first of February. Happy times.
Lucky Pierre - Hike [Melodic, 2007] (buy)This song and the [...]
After a couple of posts without the funky pounding dance music. I’ll try to make it up with this…
Skatebård - Sgnelkab [Tellektro, 2002]Skatebård is hot right now with the full length ‘Midnight Magic’ which is great. But check out this old moody techno track instead. Fucking fab. From the LP ‘Skateboarding Was A Crime (In [...]
Orgue Electronique - Stairway to the Ocean [Crème, 2007] (buy)Light electroish material from orgue, the EP is ‘The Garden’. The file has half assed audio quality, sadly.
