Monday Morning Round-Up: Tofubeats Remixes Trippy Turtle, New i-fls, BlackglassG
ByPatrick St. Michel June 16, 2014

A handful of gems to start this week. Let’s hit ’em quick. – I don’t know much about Trippy Turtle, though I think that’s the point. It is a mysterious project (maybe from Norway), and whoever this is mostly remixes R ‘n’ B songs. The original “Trippy’s Theme” sounds a lot like Seiho, but Tofubeats’…

New Native Rapper: “Motor Pool”
ByPatrick St. Michel October 7, 2016

With Native Rapper, it isn’t just about what he’s rapping about — the Kyoto artist’s songs seem just as interested in pushing the sounds of words, pitching and slowing them down and turning his voice into Play-Doh. Newest song “Motor Pool” thrives on this, Native Rapper gleefully manipulating his voice over a relatively laid-back beat,…

New Buddhahouse: Kinki
ByPatrick St. Michel April 25, 2018

With any new enterprise, you want your best foot forward. DJ and producer Buddhahouse recently launched a new label called Fruit Parlor Records, and the first release to come from this fledgling operation comes from himself. Kinki includes tracks the Sapporo-born creator has shared in recent memory, making it a good one-stop for the tropical…

New iivvyy: iivvyy
ByPatrick St. Michel May 17, 2018

This EP is more about gathering together what’s already out there into one place, but for a project that previously just shared single songs as it coalesced together, that’s perfectly fine. Kosmo Kat and HVNS’ iivvyy found the perfect middle ground between both artist’s sounds, creating a liquid-metal techno accessorized by pitch-shifted vocal samples that…
