Avantgarde Podcast #03 | FADE & JUNE MILLER


Blu Mar Ten - Famous Lost Words




They need little introduction. For those familiar with LTJ Bukem's Good Looking imprint back in the mid 1990s may remember Blu Mar Ten from those heady days. But their second coming came circa 2009 after establishing Blu Mar Ten Music. Soon, they released the albums Natural History (2009) and Love is the Devil (2011).

This month sees the arrival of their latest album, Famous Lost Words.

Featuring 13 tracks of pure and unapologetic drum & bass, the album inhabits a similar territory to the previous two; full of emotional movements fused with tough beats that reinforce BMT’s position in the genre as originators of complex, atmospheric music. 



Famous Lost Words' 71 minute duration also features a collection of collaborators. ‘Thin Air’ layers the alluring vocals of Robert Manos atop a bed of whirling synths and rolling bass. Multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Agné Genyté, injects a dose of soothing lullaby tones into ‘Somewhere’, ‘Break It All Apart’ and ‘In Your Eyes’, while long-time friend and label mate Seba makes an appearance on ‘Hunter’, whose growling bass and Bladerunner synths play to the strengths of both artists.

Stunningly beautiful from start to finish, Famous Last Words is easily one of the year's best albums. Go get it.

PHIL TANGENT "We Don't Talk Anymore" / PENNYGILES "Stories Untold" (IMLTD 1213)




Two songs dedicated to break ups. And what a lovely pair they are. Both producers graft lush and bountiful atmospherics on to rumbling basslines and crisp breaks, resulting in melodies that are absolutely hypnotic. And though Phil Tangent and Pennygiles are rugged, smooth-talking, tuxedo-wearing bosses who chop wood and hunt in their spare time (or so claim IM:LTD), these two moody rollers definitely begs your attention. Watch out for this one dropping on vinyl and digital from all the usual outlets on Nove 25 2013.

SPEAR052 - Hybrid Minds - Mountains LP




Over the last 2 years, Hybrid Minds (aka Josh White & Matt Lowe) have quickly established a following for their own cinematic, musical and uplifting brand of drum & bass. And this forthcoming album - which came through our mailbox just hours ago - is an absolute delight. With tracks like Lost, Fade, Meant To Be and I’m Through clocking up in-excess of 2 million views between them, the demand for an album has been evident. Spearhead boss, Steve BCee, quickly caught on to this and, since singing them to his Spearhead Records imprint in 2012, has had them locked away honing their sound and crafting their finest work to-date.

Mountains features guest appearances from Ad-Apt, Charlie P, Philippa Hanna, Rocky Nti, BCee, Grimm, Holly Drummond, Mike Romeo, Laurence Baker, Linguistics, Tempza, Jasmine Spence and Mimi Page who each bring an extra little piece of magic. As tracks Trauma and Forest showcase, this is an album packed full of real music and some of the finest song-writing you will hear at 174 bpm. For those that like things a little slower now and again, the duo relax the tempo and take us deep with tracks like Broken and Ascent.

Mountains will be released as a double-pack, gatefold vinyl pack (which will include the CD version, shrink-wrapped inside), CD and digital download on Dec 1 2013. Get it!

Bristol Drum & Bass Mix





The sheer volume and variety of releases Roni Size, Krust and DJ Die did back in the 1990s was staggering. More importantly, it was also massively influential: They moved effortlessly between lighter melodic productions and heavy tear out tracks, but there was always a common thread, whether they were working individually or collectively. Many of these tracks are great examples of just how much you can do with not much more than some drums and a bassline. So what we have here are two mixes taking you back to your roots.

Gremlinz - Samurai Music Official Podcast 15





Toronto, Canada resident Gremlinz goes deep and low for the Samurai Podcast on the eve of the release of the Homemade Weapons & Gremlinz 'After Dark' EP. Slow and low, that is the tempo.



BMT019: Blu Mar Ten - Somewhere (feat Agné Genyté) / Half the Sky





‘Somewhere’ / ‘Half the Sky’ is the first original material from Blu Mar Ten since 2011’s Love is the Devil album project. This is the first single from their forthcoming album 'Famous Lost Words', scheduled to appear at the end of the year. Both tracks, it must be said are absolutely lovely. Somewhere is a smooth afterhours roller where dusty chords and jazz horns mingle with a deadly deep sub-bass resulting in a pure fusion of modern dark jazz with drum & bass. Meanwhile, Half the Sky is an equally epic number driven by its distinctive break while weeping pianos, stuttering vocals, howling synthscapes and bell motifs tumble around them. If nothing else, both tracks prove 'Famous Lost Words' will be an exciting listen indeed. The single's out NOW and you can get your copy of the vinyl or digital copy HERE.
