Dub & dub-techno NI Massive loops from Steve Foulds

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

So, I recently posted about Steve’s incredible new Black Light EP, and his apparent new-found love for all things dub-techno.

As a result of this, he’s been working hard on some patches for Native Instrument’s behemoth “Massive”.

Each of the patches has a different dub-techno styled synth sound, with macro controlled iterations on each loop. Each patches is separate by a clave. To get them, all you need to do is buy the track he created to demonstrate their use.

Jump on to his Bandcamp and grab “Low Winter Sun” and he’ll then fire you a link to download the samples.

Larvely!

Absense – All I Do

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Stream “All I Do” it from Absense’s MySpace or download it from here.

22 year old Liverpudlian “Absense” has just caught my attention in a big way. His track “All I Do” is the reason why.

It’s a simple vocal, shrouded somewhere in the midst of some smooth organ pads, and a gorgeous drum pattern. The track has the warmth of Summer, with the echoing simplistic sparseness of Winter, and instead of opting for any crazy basslines, or stop-start stutter rhythms to jarr the potential punters in to dancing, this very much invites people to just chill.

And chill, I will.

I suggest you check this out immediately. I’ve had it on repeat for half an hour now at least.

As well as the links above, Absense has also got himself a fab little dot com too.
