Hey there,
some new music for people, both in CD and MP3 formats..
HIGHPOINT LOWLIFE ///////
[HPLL005] Fisk Industries // The Isle Of Wight EP
Internationally renowned conglomerate Fisk Industries, is actually the
creation from the mind of one young man, mild mannered and sharp eyed
aural and visual artist Mat Ranson. Based in London, Mat has been working
within the visual arts field for a number of years now, while confining
his musical experiments to his home studio, between friends and various
web releases.
On this, his first official release, Fisk Industries recalls an idyllic
sun-drenched weekend holiday with friends on the Isle Of Wight. Field
recordings combine with dreamy analog synths and low basslines, sweeping
you along on a gentle current before the crunch-laden heavy drums kick in
and you find yourself completelty immersed.
Recalling the simplistic beauty of Isan, and the carefree naivette of
Boards of Canada, the debut EP by Fisk Industries is a carefully
constructed and presented, tightly produced slice of warm electronica.
[HPLL006] Si-cut.db // Find Some Shade
Static infused, and processed dub basslines combine with german minimalist
tech sounds and driving rhythms for this, the latest full length release
from the prolific Si-cut.db. Douglas Benford, the man behind the Si-cut.db
persona has over the past ten or so years released a vast catalog of solo
work and collaborations on labels ranging from Spa.rk, Bip_Hop,
BackGround, Expanding, and working with people like Benge, Scanner, and
Stephan Mathieu, all while also co-running the London based monthly Sprawl
club and label, alongside partner in crime, BitTonic.
In 'Find Some Shade' Si-cut.db pushes his sound further, continuing his
explorations of found sound and digitized noise, combining it with a more
dance oriented, tho stoned and hazy, lofi groove.
These both just came in this morning, so they won't be shops for a few
months yet, but we have them on the online store on the site...

you may have missed a few new releases...

he's been collaborating with a number of people in the studio.

Previous to that, we had two other lads, both coincidentally from the
further out reaches of the Scottish wilderness...
