if you dont like it so much, theres always a pitchfork review you can stare into. starring such lines as "They dangle the carrot, only for you to reach out and grab it, triggering a booby-trapped cage to fall and make stasis your sentence."

so enjoy, or dont.

Tipper - Puzzle Dust [2012]

I had the release and the addictech samples running at the same time..and it sounded not bad. Soooo melty. Anyway, a little harder than previous releases, no less bubbly, no less wiggly, no less awesome. What is the difference between Tipper Sound Experience and Tipper? Anyone know??

1. Puzzle Dust
2. Jook
3. Scabbler
4. Off Kilter (VIP Mix)

hnnnnnng

Dirtyphonix!!!

These guys are the shit. 4 french doodz who expertly perform and produce electro, dnb and dubstep. It's like what Zeds Dead tried to do but failed horribly at. Live these guys are insane, so much energy and the only quick transition dj's I like. Here is a booster pack with a good handful of the material they have out. Check it out check it out dooooooo it.

For me, autumn always rouses an acute craving for indie music, so this morning I went scavenging and found WU LYF. I was kind of hoping they were somehow relevant to Wu Tang, but alas, they're just a bunch of hipsters out of Manchester. I'm not just calling them hipsters because of their music (though that could definitely warrant the label), but because, well... Here's what their Wiki page says:

WU LYF (pronounced "Woo Life", stands for "World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation") are a band from Manchester, England that originally became known for creating a mystery about themselves by declining requests for interviews and not releasing much information to the press. The band describes their music as "heavy pop".

The "World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation" recorded this album in an abandoned church; they say it's because they "didn't like the studio acoustics," but I believe they did it to be ironic, and everyone knows that to be ironic is to be a hipster. Additionally, they made a solid point of being mysterious (via "carefully designed anonymity," according to The New York Observer), AND they're trying to coin their own genre. Hip! Hip!

Hipster accusations aside, this album is fucking great. Instrumentally, this reminds me of a poppier, more melodic Battles. The vocals are really different (I think) and overall, the abandoned church thing works really well for them. I bet seeing them live would be fucking phenomenal, and given the opportunity to see them, I'd probably be hoarse for at least a week following. Highly recommend this one.

Get it.
