SUSTENTACULA – “SALEM CITY OF PEACE”

Warble Records – 2010

SUSTENTACULA just released an amazing new record “SALEM CITY OF PEACE”, via there own Warble Records.

An amazing collection of epic percussive productions, and soulful prophetic vocals.

This is some end times/ astral transition shit right here. Plug into the now time future vibe transmissions.

Planetary Boombox!

On the nerd tip:  Visionary production and arrangement of acoustic vs. sequenced sources. Power house dudes at work.

Hit them up, as they are so generously offering the whole record as a “pay as you want” high quality download

SUSTENTACULA is David Rafn and Ryan Stuewe, two of PDX’s finest crunk/experimentalists.

JAMmm it.

Skweee Cruise

The Baddest Skweee Label on the west coast, POISONOUS GASES just dropped an insane 2×12″ slab of international skweee thumps. PDX is proud to be the home of such a venture, I can boast and say that the mysterious boss man over at POISONOUS GASES has been a dear homie of mine for over a decade now. He pulled together an amazing cast of producers, who are pushing and pulling this amorphous genre into elastic and syrup drenched new places. Krunk Fuckin FANTASTIC!

Go buy a copy before they are sold for tripple on ebay.

AUDIOCRIP – “Blue Yo SPEAKERS”

Some NEW West Coast Glitch fire power from Portland’s AUDIOCRIP.

Cracklin bursts of warm MPC glitch,

crunchy spoonfuls of analog drips and drops,

and a healthy dose of  laid back,

left-coast Cadillac beat swagger.

This record hits the beat heads and the experimental cats.

If you’ve been lucky enough to see AUDIOCRIP live,

well then u know what im sayin.

Cop the record before its gone, its a rare dose of PDX realness served up hot.

Available as a limited (300) BLUE 12″ Vinyl

Released by SONIC LOZENGE DEC 10. 2010

Been meaning to post this for a while..

PDX chamber/jazz quintet The Blue Cranes just put out a new record.

Its full of lush orchestration and some very vivid improvising.

Here’s the Gulls remix, PLUS a very special verbage cameo version f

eaturing the PDXwise prose of The Thrift Shop Sampler.

Given the palette of all acoustic sources, this was a blast to remix.

It was given a full on analog treatment, courtesy of the Sequential Circuits DRUMTRAX, and the Realistic MG-1.
