Track of the Week – SGR 172 – October 2015

          Joe Le Blanc – Worth – Bonzai Elemental I loved the smooth deep vibe of this lower slung jazzy track “Worth” by Joe Le Blanc on Bonzai Elemental. The amount music that is sent in for consideration to be played on the show is overwhelming to say the least. Its …

Track of the Week – SGR157 February 2015

I am going to date myself here but this track is one of my favorites.  From today to back in the day when I became enamored with Hip Hop/Electro.  This track is timeless to me.  The production, the way it flows and the simplicity of it is what makes it stand out to me.  It …

Track of the Week – SGR156 February 2015

There’s so much to love about this track it’s absurd. This represents the best of electronic and pop music without drowning you either genre.A very dapper groove and an equally handsome vocal easily make this a stellar track off the “Into The Everything” album this comes from. An easy listen and an easy pick for …

Track of the Week – SGR154 January 2015

  I get to hear a lot of music and I would say a good chunk doesn’t make it into my rotation but this track by Sharper Image really did it for me.  This track/remix has all the layers and goodies that I expect in a good ol’ fashioned house groove. Beefy bass line that …

Track of the Week – SGR153 January 2015

  Breaking things up from the normal four/four, Hamo let’s loose and gets quite funky on this retro/old school hip-hop flip. Any vinyl diggers will get the connection with those Crooklyn Clan, AV8 12″ cuts “back n day.” and will attest “S.O.U.L.”  stands alongside those classics  – Myxzlplix Hamo – S.O.U.L. [Spendor & Squalor] (click …

Continuing their string of successful releases, the Detroit Swindle boys present Andy Hart’s “La Meme Pour Moi” EP out now on both digital and 180gm vinyl and includes the jump off track “The Same For Me.” Similar in vein to Max Graef, or Art of Tones, this is an excellent low-brow, lo-fi house music affair …

Track of the Week – SGR #136 – September 2014

    Evolver is just one of the highlights off the “Almost Famous” LP by Audio Noir courtesy of Bonzai Progressive. Backed with a nail tight kick n’ snare routine with bleeps and blips dropping in the shadows, “Evolver” builds into something quite majestic. When the ethereal vocals and piano chords glide in, we’re taken …

Track of the Week – SGR #128 – July 2014

    This track stood out for me because it contains certain elements from several genres such as Trip Hop, Dubstep & ambient. It has dreamy soundscapes, lush layers & synths. It’s the type of track you can drive to, chill to and/or have playing in the background in a social gathering. Bass is just …

Track of the Week – Subdivisions #124 – June 2014

      I am a sucker for a great low slung track with soul. Kasper Bjorke’s ‘Sylvia’ on the always impressive HFN Music was just what the doctor ordered. I love the haunting under tones with just enough melody and movement on top to keep it interesting. The Sade vibe vocal is sparing with …

      We all need some funk in our lives and Greece’s Mister T. (not to be confused with the legendary Mr. T) brings it home for the funk-a-fied faithful. We all love the four on the floor groove, but sometimes you gotta turn it up and get loose- Myxzlplix Mister. T – Mo …

Track of the Week – Subdivisions #122 – June 2014

      This is one track that I cannot stop listening to.  The original is a nice solid groove and all, however, the Kyodai Remix just sets my aural senses on fire. From the beginning the track grabs your attention with an electronic assortment of  synthetic & organic landscapes. The type track that not …

Track of the Week – Subdivisions #121 – May 2014

      I was more then pleasantly surprised by the Flunk – ‘Blue Monday’ (Gernot Remix) on Colortape. Personally I am not a big fan of classic tracks being reworked, especially when it’s a track that I have been listening to for 30 years, a track as legendary as New Order”s – Blue Monday. I …

Track of the Week – Subdivisions #120 – May 2014

      Carefully blending melancholic indie pop, a dance groove template, and Tulliae’s smoky-eyed vocals, Pablo Nouvelle may not be out to concur the world with his talented goodness, but it just may happen if he keeps producing tracks like this. – Myxzlplix Pablo Nouvelle-Poison feat. Tulliae – Black Butter Records (click to listen)

Our Track of the Week for Episode #114 is the glorious Tensnake Remix of London Grammar’s “Hey Now” on  Metal & Dust Recordings. Tensnake took this to a different atmosphere opening the remix with a muted delayed guitar, smooth pads and dubbed vocal stabs that build up til the drums finally kick in at the right …
