The next wave of Swedish electronics has arrived! Just received the new Boulderdash release on Recordings Under Construction called 'We Never Went To Koxut Island'. You may recognize Hans Moller and Daniel Skaborn operating under the Juicehead guise (also on RUC), as well as working with the folks at Audionaut Records based in Stockholm, Sweden. The Juicehead project relied on experimental drum and bass to produce a soundscape of rich texture's and swift drum programming. This time around we get to hear Boulderdash and their unique array of lovely sounds. 'We Never Went..' is a sonic palette of subtle hip-hop beats and intricate melodies, fusing jazz elements with a relaxed atmosphere of hyper-funk and crispy rhythms. My ears are pleasantly awakened to hear Hans and Daniel creating music that expands your thoughts and relaxes your body. Think of Autechrean beats with a Boards of Canada attitude, and Boulderdash levitates peacefully in this area of abstract yet calming electronics. Check out the RUC label at the following url for more information: www.ruc.com. You might want to check www.audionaut.com for other fine releases such as Dribs' 'In Dribs & Drabs', Spinform's 'To Hear is Not To Listen' amongst others.

I want to second Pietro's compliments of the the Boulderdash cd on RUC. Just got this today and it is by far one of the strongest melodic idm records i've heard in some time. I've listened to the album 4 times today. It reminds me of a plod meets early-plaid meets smoker's delight-era nightmares on wax with a touch of solvent. yes it's that strong. But dont take my word for it. you can check out RA bits of the album at: http://www.audionaut.com/boulderdash/ -->-Lance--- lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
