[WJS024] Msymiakos - The Departing [Wicked Jungle Records 2-Track Single Available To Download Now!!!]

1/Stabbed.

2/ The Voyage.

The latest offering from the ever reliable Wicked Jungle Records sees us venture on a journey into the deep jungle, with the release of Msymiakos' 'The Departing' single.

Stepping up to the plate first we have 'Stabbed', a fierce fusion of tearing amens and rugged Think breaks, driven by poweful bass throbs and lush pads, peppered with menace dripping, movie dialogue, creating a perfect balance of both light and dark elements.

'The Voyage' up next certainly lives up to it's title, by layering sublime, soaring pads over a backdrop of filtered Cold Sweat breaks before the track evolves into a flurry of sliced and diced Amen breaks and thundering 808 bass booms.

As always, the Wicked Jungle camp along with Msymiakos brings us yet another high quality slice of authentic and retrospective jungle that's guaranteed to satisfy even the most picky of junglists out there. Comes highly recommended!!!

The Msymiakos' 'The Departing' single is available to download now, direct from the official Wicked Jungle Records Bandcamp store for $2, or more if you wish to support the label and artist to make more music!!!

[Dark Til Dawn Records] FOTH - Dolphins In My Brain [Available To Download Now!!!]

1/ The One That Makes Me Scream.

2/ High Noon.

3/ Dolphins In My Brain (Digital Pilgrimz Remix).

4/ Dolphins In My Brain (Msymiakos Remix).

5/ Dolphins In My Brain (Rad Rod's Remix).

6/ Dolphins In My Brain.

7/ Outer Spacious.

For their latest release, Dark Til Dawn Records enlist the talents of FOTH to produce a mammoth seven track EP, the quizzically titled 'Dolphins In My Brain' featuring three exclusive remixes of the namesake track by Msymiakos, Digital Pilgrimz and 2Brainz' Rad Rod.

FOTH kicks off the EP with the electronica influenced 'The One That Makes Me Scream', with it's fusion of lush, Boards Of Canada style synth washes overlaid with soothingly soulfull vocals driven by an energetic, yet unfussy breakbeat. The hazy, psychedelia tinged 'High Noon' layers a fusion of looped pianos, gorgeous ambient pads and self-realisation movie dialogue, with rolling jungle percussion and bass blasts. Am gonna be making an obscure observation here, but if you can imagine the works of Odd Nosdam, if he made jungle instead of dub themed ambient drone!

The Digital Pilgrimz step up to the plate for the first in a series of remixes of  'Dolphins In My Brain', and they deliver a hypnotic, ascending, pad melody accentuated by reggae style trumpet blasts and chiming synth notes over a hard-hitting Think break. Msymiakos' remix follows next, which sees him incorporating a gentle, chilled melody over some marvelously intricate drumwork, heavyweight, tear-out amens and rude bass. The third in the trilogy of 'Dolphins In My Brain' remixes comes from Rad Rod, who takes us on a journey into darker jungle territory by fusing intensely jittery chopped breaks with heavily reverberated dolphin samples, and a moody vibrato synth melody to get right under your skin.

The original FOTH mix of 'Dolphins In My Brain' drops next in all of it's warped bassline and manic amen break majesty. The EP concludes with 'Outer Spacious', and switches expertly from D&B to jungle tinged footwork, with it's fusion of jittery breaks and chopped female vocals and ambient pads peppered with NASA space flight samplage.

Despite the fact that all tracks featured on FOTH's 'Dolphins In My Brain' EP contain a strong drum & bass/jungle focus on style, the EP also contains a strong element of electronica which suits home listening just as well as being suited for more adventurous dancefloors. The thinking man's jungle/D&B!!!

FOTH's 'Dolphins In My Brain' is available to download now from the Dark Til Dawn Records Bandcamp page link below for $5, or more if you're feeling generous and wish to support .

[Dark Til Dawn Records] Msymiakos - Liquid Gansta E.P [Available From All Good Digital Music Stores On 20/05/15]

 

1/ Wannabe Gangsta.

2/ Danger Zone.

3/ Liquid Metal.

4/ Era 1994.

5/ Liquid Metal (Rad Rods Remix).

6/ Wannabe Gangsta (FOTH Remix).

7/ Liquid Metal (XIVIX Remix).

 

Thundering junglistic breakbeats fused with booming sub bass is not the first style of music that you'd associate with Norway. However resident Norwegian junglist, Msymiakos has been a staunch supporter of roughneck drum & bass sounds since he first began producing music back in the mid nineties. Preferring to keep things as close to the sounds of the Golden Era of jungle as possible, Msymiakos continues to use Amiga-style tracker software to this day to retain that authentic feel to his music. Which is all too evident with his first release on the Dark Til Dawn Records imprint, the 'Liquid Gansta E.P'.

 

Containing four original works from Msymiakos himself and three remixes, the 'Liquid Gansta E.P' opens with the ragga and gangsta rap vocal-tinged 'Wannabe Gangsta', which combines soothing synth washes with tearing chopped up amen breaks as if it was still 1994. Using some cheeky modern, animated comedy sleuth samples, 'Danger Zone' follows on in a similar fashion by upping the percussive elements on the breaks to create  stepping track for those who love their edits.

The first of 3 mixes of 'Liquid Metal' drops next, fusing mellow jazzy flourishes in the intro into a veritable barrage of breaks, culminating in a guaranteed hardstep anthem. Watch out for the 'Champion Sound' vocal sample! 'Era 1994' does exactly as it says on the tin and recreates 1994 jungle's obsession with mashed amen breaks, rudebwoy vocal snippets and bass throbs to a tee.

Rad Rod (one half of  Conquest Recordings 2Brainz) steps up to the plate to give 'Liquid Metal' an overhaul, welding on manic, fractured breaks to manufacture a drum-funk heavy remix. 'Wannabe Gangsta' sees FOTH at the controls with his lushly atmospheric yet rinsing, amen based remix. Lastly comes the 'Liquid Metal (XIVIX Remix)', which draws the EP to a close with a bassline which would make Dillinja, circa the mid-nineties, acknowledge that he has serious competition.

If you had serious love for the oldskool jungle sound of the '90's then the 'Liquid Gansta E.P' comes highly recommended.

Quantum Progression Audio's Bright Lights provides an excellent taster of Msymiakos' 'Liquid Gansta EP' to whet your appetite...
