Starting off the week with a bang, here is a sneak preview from Teengirl Fantasy’s forthcoming album 7AM. Their music is a beautiful journey through rippled-out landscapes with buoyant rhythms and truly unique textures, 7AM explores the dimension where dance beats mingle with hallucinogenic vibes.  Perhaps one of the most straightforward dance tracks on the album, “Cheaters” is a beautiful upbeat jam conjuring ghosts of Chicago house divas and warehouse walls. This is a perfect introduction to Teengirl Fantasy’s universe. We can’t wait for their album to arise!

We’re thrilled about this merging of creative entities. Longtime dublab friends Meanest Man Contest are married in this musical moment to LA’s great Superhumanoids. No need for a tuxedo to celebrate this union, just dress your ears with excitement and prepare to soar along. Like most relationships this one is comfortable in its duality. At moments they dip into touches of doom and gloom but rise again in gauzy bliss. These are humans at work together. We ask that as you celebrate this coming together you keep that rice in your pocket to avoid exploding pigeons.

You can find the original mix of this tune on of the “Designed Entropy 1″ compilation from San Francisco’s Gold Robot label.

Lucky Dragons will help you connect to desired destinations. Extend your hand and prepare to expand. We fly without time. Slow levitation in hummed hypnosis.

yuk.’s A D W A is an album of sublime beauty. It’s a fog-shrouded vision quest through gorgeous terrains that transform from glacial to gritty as it winds its way through your ears. I feel a strong desire to loop right back to the start of this awe-inspiring journey after every listen. “Emilia Reflection” is a gem amongst the many beauties of A D W A. Give this song a hundred listens then return to find a new favorite on this wonderful album made available by our ultra-homies Leaving Records. Endless love to yuk. and the whole My Hollow Drum collective.

The Wild West is an intense place indeed. There is so much energy in the atmosphere that each breath brings electrocution. We’re buzzing skeletons sparking off and on in the desert night. Our minds are wide open looking to be filled and twisted around by great new forces. We blink on with each bright notion then simmer down to darkness only to come alive again with the next quick burst of creative energy. Lately we’ve been flashing a lot. Jon Wayne has us blinking like fireflies. He’s a young cat with a great presence, full of big smiles and beats & rhymes to match. As he continues to grow you’ll see our city flickering off and on at a rapid rate from deep space.

Our favorite art-music-focused-music-art friends are back with bags packed full of beauty.

Gather your pals around and put on “La Bolsa Blanca.” Now clap to the song’s cycles as you each evaporate in turn. Once you have all entered Ojo’s universe of alive audio action enjoy riding along as they bring you to the horizon’s edge and beyond.

Nick Rosen – African Sun

Nick Rosen is a beloved member of LA’s vibrant, organic music community. He has contributed his considerable talents to some of the most heartfelt projects that have surfaced from this city. Build an Ark and the Pan Afrikan People’s Arkestra have benefited from the vibration of his bass tones. He has also collaborated with elder geniuses including Henry Grimes, Charlie Haden and Bennie Maupin. Now, Nick has released “Into the Sky” on Porter Records. For this album he gathered a group of equally inspired players to create an ode to beautiful infinity. This song, “African Sun,” arranged by frequent sound partner Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, is a glimmer of the majestic and intimate shades of sound that can be found within Nick’s new album.

PSYCHIC POWERS – GLIDE

Psychic Powers - Glide

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

The first single from Psychic Powers’ new record “Infinity.” On “Glide” Psychic Powers goes to the dance beats of the early 90s, and combines them with a strong songwriting style. Psychic Powers has been releasing limited but beautiful songs ever since their inception, their “Frozen EP” on RCRD LBL and “Wellington” on Geographic North are amazing. After a two month collaboration between Ale and Nik, “Glide” is one of the songs that came from those sessions. As a “B side” for this release Psychic Powers included the song “Blue Icing”, which is not included in the album. This tune continues with the idea of late 80s/early 90s dance beats, but more on the rave aspect of it, rather than on the floating Madchester vibe that “Glide” has.

Charanjit Singh – Raga Megh Malhar

Charanjit Singh must have hit a magic, time travel, musical chord while twisting analog synthesizer knobs. He seems to have flashed to the future for an electronic epiphany at a UK rave circa 1991 then brought this sound inspiration back to his 1982 Bombay studio. Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat is a magically crafted album of classical Indian sounds through a heavy acid lens. Enjoy this tune from Bombay Connection’s beautifully packaged re-release of this lost, electronic gem.

Just in time for endless and imposing heat waves, matthewdavid and Dog Bite have engineered a crucial summer jam which packs enough powerful feel-good vibrations to blast open the fire hydrant of riveting and joyful summer exuberance (and subtly melancholy nostalgia.) “Late Key” is the world’s first taste of this coast-spanning collaboration entitled Veux.

Keep your planes trains and automobiles. We want boats. Boats to sail by the power of solar winds and skim across the shimmering sea to lands of crystal mountains and deeply breathing jungles. The Emerald Sun and Scarlet Sun throw their rays past the rings of the Moon and splash the water with gentle warmth. Our hands in the foam, we glide. Our craft is kept company by schools of glowing rays. Their wings translucent against the diamond spray. The rays jump with halos spinning radiance of 4th dimensional songs in the air. Their peace sea messages echo, pushing our boat closer to the island. Twin volcanoes on the horizon pump anti-gravity gasses which encircle us on arrival keeping our ship floating ever skyward over the blue sands of the island. These boats bring us home.

We Like Cats = Eva Saelens (Inca Ore), Honey Owens (Valet/the Miracle’s Club) and Adam Forkner (White Rainbow/Rob Walmart). This trio are your escape captains. They will sail you on the good ship Meow and feed you Proper Eats all voyage long. Hey, if it’s that kind of occasion, they’ll even help you consummate your Marriage using highly tuned vinyl or digital excitement tools.

Recently we held a live dublab transmission in support of our brother Justin “Kutmah” McNulty who is being uprooted from his LA home of over 20 years and deported to the UK. We broadcast an entire day of Kutmah’s dublab show “Sketchbook” as his friends came in to voice their support and raise donations for his deportation defense fund.

dublab dj Nanny Cantaloupe treated the transmission in real time with one magnetic tape loop to create this 12 minute sound scramble honoring Kutmah. We hope you enjoy the result. Kutmah will always be a vital part of the dublab family and a loved member of the Los Angeles creative community.

For more information on his situation and to support please visit FREEKUTMAH.COM.

MASTER BLAZTER – BLAZT OFF: MIXED BY KUTMAH

Image Source

This musical gem comes courtesy of the champions at HVW8

BLAZT OFF, a mix by Los Angeles’ own DJ Kutmah, showcases the individual styles of Computer Jay, J1, and D-F. Collectively, they are known as Master Blazter. Individually, each is accomplished in his own right, and as a group, there is no stopping the funk they create. Each individual is an integral part of the whole – each one necessary to keep funk music alive, taking it to unforeseen heights.

Computer Jay develops hard hitting tracks built upon moog, rhodes and personally tweaked electro systems. J1 provides the backbone of rhythm on drums, while equally being comfortable producing quality funk laced beats. D-F adds his signature vocals and provides layers of deep funk with his own keyboards and keytar.

The countdown has begun…
