niceFingers – Arammana

Posted on February 21, 2012 by adam @ aerial noise

Comprised of members Nick Waterhouse and Dave Schneider, niceFingers is passionate about bringing lovable, amazing, uplifting, bumpin and straight dirty music to your eardrums.

With their physical bodies currently residing on different continents, these two musicians jumped at the chance to explore the realms of intercontinental beat making. Each having extensive music backgrounds, niceFingers first became an entity after the need arose to liven the Midwest DJ scene with their special yet similar tastes in bass music and live-production style performance.

It is no surprise that niceFingers has morphed into a composition/production duo determined to blend and bend the bass genre into something all their own. Delivering only the freshest tracks to satisfy your musical hunger, sit back and enjoy as the niceFinger vision continues to mature and evolve.

Contrakids [Younger + You're Gone]

Posted on February 19, 2012 by adam @ aerial noise

Jacob and Jeremy have been making music together for years. Originally from Sydney, the duo released their first EP “Into You”, in the latter half of 2011. They hone a unique sound that crosses between electropop and R&B. They have only crossed my radar recently and I’m happy they did. With relaxed, soft lyrics mixed with a hypnotic wave of music they are becoming one of my favourite chill projects of 2012.

Moon Boots – Aretha [Zimmer Remix]

Posted on February 10, 2012 by adam @ aerial noise

Zimmer’s music brings about a feel good, body-warming, enthusiastic wave that goes straight to the heart – staying until the end of the night. Growing up between France and California, this young producer has found a smooth combination of both worlds: west coast carefree attitude, with a twist of Parisian chic.

Blending 70s Disco, 80s Funk and 90s House, his influences range from George Benson to Crystal Waters, with instant contemporary producers comparisons to Aeroplane, Moullinex and Azari & III.

When not producing, he goes back to his DJ routes and makes people move in low-ceiling clubs and fancy parties, just recently making his USA debut at Los Angeles renowned Cinespace. Making sure the crowd always has a good time, he cultivates the art of mixing à la Larry Levan, playing from 100 to 125 bpm.

Check out these fresh vibes and hit em up on soundcloud.

Bloc Party – Flux (Alexx Foxx Remix)

Posted on February 8, 2012 by adam @ aerial noise

Alex Foxx just tossed us a remix to his favourite Bloc Party track “Flux”. It’s fantastic and holds on to a real dark, transparent vibe. Completely bringing me back to the pure Bloc Party days of ’09. I haven’t done a bonus track in ages but at the bottom you can check out my own absolute favourite- Phones’ disco edit to the track “Banquet”.

Follow Foxx for more great remixes.

Skrillex feat. Ellie Goulding-Summit [Back From The Future Remix]

Posted on January 19, 2012 by adam @ aerial noise

Great remix here from Back From The Future. The hard hitting Electro/Dubstep of Cheyenne Giles and Joe Garcia are from San Diego. The soft essence that captures the violent musical nature of Skrillex is incredible. I’m a big fan.

Alex Fedorov – “Last Forever”

Posted on January 4, 2012 by jon @ aerial noise

A refreshing advancement of the established post-rock premise, self-taught guitar prodigy Alex Fedorov’s nuanced, polished sound offers an alluring modernity, while still retaining a depth and complexity reminiscent of The Album Leaf or Mogwai. Fedorov seamlessly weaves elements of Heavy Metal, Ambient, Trance, and Classical to craft a signature sound that transcends genre lines, and appeals to a vast array of tastes. Currently unsigned, Fedorov continues to work out of Bedrock Studios in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, and his already extensive library of material can be further explored at http://www.reverbnation.com/alexfedorov…

Kauf – “Lost in Records Mix”

Posted on December 11, 2011 by jon @ aerial noise

We introduced you to Ronald Kaufman, AKA Kauf, with the noir thriller “Relocate” a while ago, and we’ve been following him closely since. It’s been a minute, but the Southland’s Kauf has checked in with a DJ set released through the Lost in Records website. He also has a remix for the Tony Castles song, “Heart in the Pipes” coming down the pipe later this month, again through Lost in Records, so we won’t need to wait quite as long for the next Kauf post…Kauf’s music truly captures the darker side of living in Los Angeles, and his captivating, darker perspective explains why he is currently one of the city’s quickly rising stars…

August Eight Ft. Nina Foot – “Love Trip”

Posted on November 14, 2011 by jon @ aerial noise

August Eight may or may not have issues with authority, but don’t allow the sporadically surly demeanor to distract from a profound talent that became apparent around age 8. Eight has been an outspoken opponent of self-limitation, and has never believed in stifling other creative urges. Distractions to some, Eight claims his music would be void of it’s signature depth should he be unable to enjoy his alternative artistic pursuits. The primarily self-taught August Eight explains a conspicuous fascination with different genres and artistic mediums by recalling his travels as a citizen of the world; embedding himself amongst our planet’s most exotic societies, soaking up culture, and marveling at indigenous song and dance. A strong believer in not setting limits to what one is capable of, and always overflowing with brilliance, Eight handles his own graphics, photos and website. You might call the 21-year-old Californian an ultra-auteur, who capably produces, mixes and records his own music in a private, self-built studio in the hills above Los Angeles. With plans to release his first official solo project this coming summer, August Eight has been relentlessly writing and producing tracks for an upcoming EP that will mark the beginning of a ceaseless tour of enchantment…

Posted on October 29, 2011 by jon @ aerial noise

Mint Julep is the husband and wife team of Keith and Hollie Kenniff, and they continue to produce the lustrous modern pop music that sets us adrift atop a cloud of bubbles.

The forthcoming album, Save Your Season, will be made available on the 19th of November on Village Green, but for now, check out track “Aviary” remixed by our favorite post- rock Scotts Mogwai, as well as the music video for another of Save Your Season’s tracks, “Days Gone By”…

Modus Pony – “Modus Pony” LP

Posted on October 9, 2011 by jon @ aerial noise

From the people who brought you Suede Ape, comes Modus Pony, the new instrumental solo project from Matt Ackerman. The self titled, debut album is a collection of experimental ideas, born during countless hours of bedroom daydreaming, presented and served to you as a traditional collection of typically succinct pop-songs. The album is a buffet of bite sized, experimental pieces that can be listened to casually, or examined and picked apart meticulously as an extended piece of audio-art. The album is currently available via bandcamp, with two free tracks available for download if you’re looking for something odd yet catchy, while cerebral in a “I-see-what-he-did-there” kind of way….

This Is Head – De Trop [Johanna Knutsson Remix]

Posted on September 27, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

It’s Saturday night and you go to bed at 11 pm. You set your alarm clock for 5 am in the morning. You wake up, have a couple beers for breakfast, and then you’re ready for the floor. You arrive at Bergain, Panorama bar, Berlin at 6 am. Most likely you show up to find Johanna Knutsson at the DJ booth. Johanna is the latest star on the more mellow techno scene within Berlin- the scene that peaks at 7 am when the party starts over again.

This is the latest single from This Is Head, now in one exclusive remix. We’re proud to present De Trop (Johanna Knutsson Cosmic Support Remix).

RUSKO

Posted on September 22, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

Rusko has redefined all that is dubstep. Once graduated from Leeds College of Music with a degree in Music Performance, Rusko became heavily immersed in the world of Dubstep through the Leeds based event “Sub Dub” and the closely connected Northern counterpart of Digital Mystikz “DMZ” events, which were both held at the West Indian Centre. Rusko moved to London to work with the record labels Sub Soldiers and Stingray Records and connect with now no longer associated act Caspa. Together the two honed a new sound that was unlike any other.

Rusko made his production debut in 2006 on Dub Police with the song SNES Dub.By 2007 he released Babylon, Vol. 1 with Sub Soldiers. Steering away from the darker side of Dubstep, Rusko brought an upbeat sound to the scene that appealed to many outside the community. Rusko’s extremely successful hit Cockney Thug has appeared on various DJ sets and mixes including Pete Tong, Switch, M.I.A. and Santigold. His music has been remixed by artists Buraka Som Sistema as well as Drop the Lime, Scratch Perverts, Sub Focus and fellow act Caspa. Rusko also did his own productions and remixes of artists like Adele and A-Trak featuring Kid Sister.

Rusko worked with M.I.A. on her third album release Maya. Rusko’s newest album release is titled OMG and was released on Mad Decent Records on 3 May 2010 in the United Kingdom and 4 May 2010 in the United States.

He is also said to have worked on tracks with Rihanna and T.I. and has produced optional material for Britney Spears’ upcoming album. On November 8, 2010 Rusko’s house and production studio in Silverlake caught on fire. The fire started when Belinda’s Porsche caught fire in his carport. He managed to save the hard drives from the studio computers.

As a thank you for Christopher Mercer’s notorious work in the studio, we have a selection of hard pressed historic beats from the English producer. Check out the past below.
