Alex B – Moments [Album]

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

I’m going to slightly diverge from my usual content and post an album which I was sent recently. Preview below…

Alex B-”Moments” Promo Video from ELM AND OAK on Vimeo.

Alex B released Moments, a 17 track masterpiece on Elm And Oak just yesterday.

The album is a sweeping, swirling collection of hip hop and wonky beats, spangly synths and intricate percussion. It’s a joy to listen to and will likely form part of the soundtrack to my spring and summer this year. Highly recommended!

New HENCH material from Giant – bit of a rave anyone?

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

Do you ever have those “I could go a bit of a rave” moments?

I know I do. I can pledge alliance to the deep and moody stuff all day, but sometimes there’s a need for the occasional skank to a balls-out banger.

Back when I was well in to my hip hop – It would be a bit of Just Blaze, or some heavy Primo joints. When I was in to my electro, it would be D.I.M. or some other gritty electro filth If it was Drum & Bass, a bit of Limewax or Tech Itch. But now that I’m immersed in dubstep these days, it’s fallen upon a new group of musicians to be hailed the banger kings – and what better label to take that on, than Hench.

Giant are a Russian group of producers who are debuting on Hench for the label’s 10th EP. And instead of bigging this up with long words, and confusing adjectives – I’ll just let you have a listen to the tracks. I’m sure those of you with an affection for the heavy stuff will delight in picking these up when they surface in August.

Now, personally I prefer Swoosh, just as it’s that teency bit deeper, but that’s just me – I’m not here to change minds.

Enjoy!
