Uppermost


Action is the new Album by Uppermost is one rawest albums I've heard in a while. Steps away from his usual crisper sound to something I expected from the new Justice album before I heard it. I think it's fair to say the likes of Justice and SebastiAn had a huge influence on this album...

In Flight Entertainment



After the highly acclaimed debut album "We Can't Fly" Aeroplane presents a mix of exclusive tracks by promising artists + a new Aeroplane production.

Some really cool tracks on here which Aeroplane (now just a solo project of Vito De Luca) has compiled


The Herr Styler track would have to be my initial favourite which sounds like a score for the Lion King written by Mr Flash

RE:GENERATION

A few days ago the trailer to RE:GENERATION was released. 5 DJ's collaborating with various iconic artists combining their respective genres. The collaborations include some massive artists including Skrillex with The Doors; DJ Premier with Nas and the Berklee School of Music Orchestra; Pretty Lights with Leann Rimes and Ralph Stanley; Crystal Method with Martha Reeves; and Mark Ronson with Erykah Badu, Dap Kings and Trombone Shorty. Probably driven by publicity for the grammy's but an looks like an interesting experiment all the same. Look forward to hearing the tracks. Check out the trailer



Plus Justice's Audio, Visual, Disco Album Medley

Weekend In America


What we've all been waiting for... Wolfgang Gartner's Debut album dropped on the September 20th. Overall not too impressed with the album, shows signs of true Wolfgang style but it reminds me too much of MSTRKRFT's butchery in Fist of God, where a famous singer's thrown on top of already mediocre track for the sack of their name. In this case these vocalists are Will i am, Eve, Cam'ron, Omarion and Jim Jones. Could see this coming with his alignment with mtv

Emphasis on the David Guetta call at the end of the article.

Wolfgang Gartner - Shrunken Heads by Crazy Astronaut cranks when the distortion kicks in

The Champ - Wolfgang Gartner by Falcon Punch* happy if the whole album was like 'The Champ'



Wolfgang Gartner - Forever (Instrumental Mix) by The Kollection Save you from Will i am's vocals.

Though less hits than misses there's is enough good stuff to keep you going for a while. There's a few other good songs on the album to check out plus some bonus tracks.

Year of the Banger




2011 has been a massive year for Ed Rec after a somewhat quiet 2010. Releases already from Cassius, SebastiAn, Breakbot, Carte Blanche and the 'Let The Children Techno' Compilation mixed by Busy and Mehdi.

For the rest of the year there is the obvious release of the new Justice album, a new Oizo album, new Mickey Moonlight, a new DSL album and a release from Krazy Baldhead who hasn't been on the scene for quite a few years now






ED REC FALL 2011 DELIVERY by edbangerrecords

MICKEY MOONLIGHT "Welcome Aboard"
DSL "Supalove"
KRAZY BALDHEAD "Surabaya Girl"
SEBASTIAN feat Mayer Hawthorne "Love in Motion" Skrillex's funkt-out mix
JUSTICE "Helix"
MICKEY MOONLIGHT "Close to Everything"
MICKEY MOONLIGHT "Close to Everything" The Martin Brothers remix
MR OIZO "Douche Beat"
JUSTICE "Audio, Video, Disco" Para One remix

Not so sure what to make of Helix after a few listens.. Don't dislike it but nothing special in my eyes. A very new direction for them

A couple of new vids too as cool as ever..

FLUME


Same font!

Flume is the alias of a 19 year old Australian kid Harley Streten. Harley's also part of the duo 'What So? Not' which produce more dance orientated fidget music. Flume is a much better direction I think.

Sleepless is the title track for his first ep.

Audio Video Disco

Footage of Busy P dropping the new Justice single 'Audio Video Disco' during one of his and So Me's Busy Pictionary sets in LA last night



Track comes in about 2:15

Disappointing crowd but how insane is that justice logo So Me draws in like 30 seconds

Also new Oizo 'A Beat For the Douches' crazy shit..




New Hud Mo

Just been listening to the new Hudson Mohawke EP 'Satin Panthers'. Typical deconstructive mayhem from the Scot using simple glitchy sounds so effectively. Not always the easiest to listen to and intentionally so but there is no doubting Hud Mo pushes electronic boundaries unlike anyone else in the game.
