Upcoming Album: Vektroid - Starcalc (2011)

Debut LP from producer Vektroid (formerly known as Vektordrum). “An experimental response to artists like Com Truise and Ford & Lopatin and the late 80s new age/soundscape movements," it brings memories of early arcade game soundtracks, all slightly dark, with some splendid hip hop beat patterns to keep the whole thing tight and nicely fraying towards the end after the princess has been rescued. His previous EP, TELNET EROTIKA, is freely available here.

Two tracks from the album have been leaked so far, with the album slated for release on May 13, via Bandcamp. Much more info on the album is available at his Tumblr, linked below.

Wagon Christ - Toomorrow (2011)

Luke Vibert here serves up a selection of laid-back instrumental funk, woozy abstract hip hop, skewed house rhythms and plenty of vocal samples, often funny or just plain bizarre. Fans of contemporaries Aphex Twin or Squarepusher will appreciate the range of musical experimentation and humor across the record. Highlight "Oh, I’m Tired" starts with bass guitar funk and develops a more maudlin feel via a dreamy harmonica turn and sparkling orchestral accompaniment. Overall Toomorrow demonstrates Vibert’s continued relevance in today’s dance music, and is only slightly tinged at times by some extended jazzy twiddling.
