CLUBROOT

A St. Alban's Resident (just to the north of London), the one known as Clubroot cut his teeth in the early part of the decade with material baring a likeness to the futurist ideals of drum and bass producers of the time, like Optical, Ed Rush, and the like.

STARKEY

Throughout this 25 track mix, covering the entirety of a compact disc, it is clear that the hugely recieved full length Ephemeral Exibits released a few months back was far from a single lightning strike, and Starkbass is the step beyond, showing all the styles that make up the universe of Starkbass.

The “Latin Taste” is a rare bossa nova which energizes the overall feeling of the music, while taking it to another dimension. The grooves and vibes are just enough to keep the listener motivated at the work place, while also adding the feeling that one should be "chillin" in the warmth of the sun..

Cold computered sounds meet „real“ instruments such as guitar, glockenspiel, synths or cello (played by Andrea Serrapiglio, a.o. Carla Bozulich). Abstraction and darkness, a melody lies quiet underneath, a breezy airiness and a playfulness with love for the detail wave through the 8 tracks

Beatspoke is organic soul and gritty truth. Sub-bass lines and unpredictable beats, melodies and lyrics tell of personal trials, growth and consciousness in
