DAEDELUS “FUTURE ROOTS” MIX CD
DUBLAB “FUTURE ROOTS” MIX CD #6 ::: DAEDELUS – HAPPILY EVER AFTER
Daedelus’ edition of dublab’s “Future Roots Mix CD series” is an explosion of ultimate energy. This megamix of early Rave sounds shines with the exuberance of electric optimism. They are recorded remnants of bassbins booming in day-glo seas. These hyper-kinetic rhythms rush blasting from the past to break new boundaries. Daedelus revives the reminiscent romanticism of Rave in fresh form.
“Happily Ever After is not a just mix looking back at all that Rave encompassed circa 92-93, these are well loved records that found me, more than I collected them. In discovering this sound as a pre-teenager in suburban Los Angeles at record stores now lost to history each selection has gained, rather than diminished, an intense meaning. Most of the labels and producers are largely forgotten, genres made nu- and -step later, but when dublab contacted me for a mix that would be “Future Roots” I had to go back to my same record shelves that have time and again been my escape, solace, and inspiration.” – Daedelus
* This is Daedelus’ first mix released since a tape in 1998!
You will fall in love with this mix:
- if you dig fast flashes.
- if you remember ’92.
- if you have adventurous ears

dublab presents…IN THE LOOP: 5
12" VINYL & DIGITAL AVAILABLE AUGUST 25, 2009 ON ANTICON
dublab’s "in the loop" vinyl series continues with a new home on Anticon Records and fresh sounds from the most vivid music makers around. Like the previous four installments, this fifth chapter is a representation of artists emerging on waves of pure creativity. This loop is filled with diverse gems from a shining circle of highly-inspired musical minds. Put it on and set your mind to spinning sublime.
future side:
THE RUBY SUNS – kenya dig it?
TEENGIRL FANTASY – portofino
HECUBA – miles away
ZACKEY FORCE FUNK – bombs
roots side:
LUCKY DRAGONS – are we alright?
MATTHEWDAVID & OBA – roomthumpr
JULIA HOLTER – moto perpetuo
WHITE RAINBOW – mind haze is clear delight
DOWNLOAD: TEENGIRL FANTASY “PORTOFINO”
CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE FROM ANTICON
The "future" side kicks off with tropical tones and vibrant rhythms from the Ruby Suns. These New Zealand cats stir up bounce and melody that jet like a dazzling propellant. "Kenya Dig It?" is a stunning swirl into the cosmos of bright light. Astrologers and oracles beware! Upon every listen your senses will zap with vibes of the next big thing.
Teengirl Fantasy are a dynamic young duo crafting electronics with enthusiasm. Their touring with Telepathe and shows with folks like Dan Deacon have been getting peers and strangers riled up. "Portofino" is a pure explosion of unbridled energy. This tune is like a micro-rave symphony undulating with arpeggio and raw static. It will be welcomed by wide open ears in jeeps booming through the subconscious and beyond.
Hecuba are making music as artful magic. The creative duo write sound stories that project from the head to the dancefloor with equal power. Lucky people who heard Hecuba on tour with Bat for Lashes will enthusiastically second this statement. The bountiful beauty of "Miles Away" comes from its delicately paced blossoming. A simple siren leads to a vocal/beat pulsation that builds into an explosion of laser light love that mellows back into kettle drum rolls. This pleasing formula makes us feel perfectly at home with Hecuba.
Zackey Force Funk is a phenomenon set to explode. His homemade jams have attracted the attention of the dublab family, producers like Baron Zen and will soon surely be buzzing strong on blogs. This Tucson, Arizona based cat is set on an agenda of balancing raw chaos and beautiful soul. "Bombs" is an apocalyptic lullaby set to sounds reflected from Brian Eno’s lost beat tape loops. As the smoke clears we will all wonder where the world was before Zackey’s arrival.
FLIP!
The "roots" side is ushered in on the polyrhytms of the Lucky Dragons’ sublime kalimba crafted psychedelia. These wizards have found modern motion in ancient material and the world has embraced them warmly for it. They’re right at home in high cultural spaces (2008 Whitney Biennial, George Pompidou Center in Paris), living rooms and all ages noise rock clubs like LA’s legendary Smell. Lucky Dragons live shows instantly stretch smiles across faces and their recorded material has equally positive energy. "Are we Alright?" yes yes yes we are.
matthewdavid & OBA are creating musique concrète jams for Moon-based jump rope teams. The growing circle of matthewdavid’s fans know his folk-infused sounds are already otherworldly in their super saturation and when combined with the mysterious OBA’s musical mind they take on whole new dimensions of awe. Their bump and clank soundtrack "roomthumpr" is sure to shake and rattle speakers to the highest elevation.
Julia Holter is finely focused on intimate orchestrations. Her handful of releases on the consistently incredible Human Ear Music label are avant-garde gems that soak into souls with a feel that flows. Julia’s contribution to in the loop, the ultimately awesome "Moto Perpetuo," is an exercise in elegant minimalism filled with essences of the far east and the far out. This is music for daydream teleportation journeys.
White Rainbow makes soundtracks for future dreams. This fellow from rainy Portland sets sleeping hearts swooning with his ambient atmospheres and psychedelic signals. His improvised performances around the universe are as renowned as his recordings. "Mind Haze is Clear Delight" is a perfect closing tune for this collection. Its deep fuzz filled drone is a miracle of weightless wonder ensuring that after the echoes soak in you’ll flip this loop for another listen.
ART ACTION NOTE:
As with the previous installments dublab presents: IN THE LOOP 5 features covers culled from the epic art experience, “UP OUR SLEEVE: the dublab covers project.†This chapter stars the sunny art of Kyotarow Aoki & Moira Hahn.

MAHSSA “FUTURE ROOTS” MIX CD
GIVE A PROTON GRANT TO GET YOUR COPY OF THIS INCREDIBLE, LIMITED EDITION CD
Mahssa’s dublab future roots mix cd “Oyun Havasi!”
designed by: Tandy Love
This fourth installment of DUBLAB’S “Future Roots” mix CD series comes courtesy of Mahssa Taghinia, an Iranian music magnet living in Los Angeles. A dedicated vinyl librarian and archaeologist she runs the US branch of the flawless Finders Keepers Records and is a regular contributor to dublab.com. Here’s what Mahsaa has to say about her sparkling Middle Eastern sound offering…
“OYUN HAVASI! is a celebration of music and culture from the Bosphoros of Turkey, to the Bandar shores of Iran, into the streets of Beirut… and beyond. This is ethnic folk, funk and fuzz echoed from the familiar, opulent sounds of my childhood and relayed to open ears and minds: a musical reconnaissance conducted – as the “quest for the perfect beat” knows no cultural boundaries. And of course, every-little-thing is all the more vibrant when shared. Rare Lebanese, Persian, Azari, Turkish, Egyptian, Kurdish, and Tunisian folk – handpicked vinyl passed down from family, discovered, and sought out from the streets themselves.”
- Mahssa

Languis – Fractured
Inspirations range from Star Trek, the waft of sag aloo, a dash of pretension, sex, eight years of righteous rule and the odd nod to twenty years ago.
Their music has def beats, raw power, mysterious melodies, eastern scales, vocal harmonies, the occasional mental reverb, not to mention ripping guitar. LANGUIS are the happening sound of skinhead acid rock.
LANGUIS are a band that immediately bring back the happenings of 20 years past as well as what is going on today. The foursome formed in the aurora borealic regions of Los Angeles, California in 1997. They initially signed with Simballrec for the release of their first EP, “Homesickâ€
The past 18 months have seen a dramatic rise in the international profile of LANGUIS. They successfully toured the U.S., all while releasing a new single every four months and appearing on a stream of sampler records.
Now North American infiltration is at hand with FRACTURED, 15 mescal flavored tracks including the first three singles, some b sides and extra tracks all demonstrating the LANGUIS sound, a carefully measured brew, cultivated in the mushroom and poppy fields outside Los Angeles.
matthewdavid – “SPILLS”
matthewdavid – “SPILLS” ON ITUNES – PLUG RESEARCH RECORDS
Field recordings transpire on a dusty reel-to-reel. From East to West. From hanging moss to Hollywood haunts. From Dirty South humidity to the invisible voice of the streets. From The Woods to the Big city. Caught between channels, between frequencies. Tuned to a short-range satellite transmitting across eternity. On his very first release for Plug Research, matthewdavid will be your guide.
