Following up the dope slope sound from Censorsh!t, Groove Collective drummer Genji Siraisi is droppin' Surviving Freedom: Uncensored Remixes & Nauhgty Bits via Expansion Team Records in May! I love this album as it will be in biggie rotation. It features remixes and the like from label mates Balun, No Luck Club, etc. as well as an over 43 minute 4-part DJ set from Genji's alter ego, PushToBreak! You're gonna find lots of the ambient texts, some downtempo, rad random samplin and dancey junk, my fav being the organs on PushtoBreak's remash of TransfiguRingFreeWish. Check these tracks, and get the album when it drops in May 20th.

Hands down, these guys are one of UK's most hardest working bands. I've been following 65DaysOfStatic for a few years now and they've definitely got one of the best ranges of sound in glitch-post instrumental rock. Today they are kicking off a 4 month, 75-city tour (I lost count after 70)! WHAT?!!? Yea...hardworking. All over the world, they are solely opening for the Cure on many dates. Needless to say you'll be hearing about them for a long long time.

The Fall Of Math, the 2004 full length debut, will be released in March in the U.S. and The Distant and Mechanised Glow of Eastern European Dance Parties EP soon to follow in April via Monotreme Records. Here are some tracks off of The Fall Of March and their latest The Destruction of Small Ideas. Get that here. Listen and get lost in it.

The Fall Of Math:
Retreat! Retreat!
Hole

The Destruction of Small Ideas:
When We Were Younger And Better
Don't Go Down To Sorrow

Happy Monday, have a swell week!

I love couple bands! Making sweet music together! Oh Astro is the married workings of Illinois hailers Jane Dowe and Hank Hofler. They rock a very playful experimental sound that contains highly danceable elements and strong synth pop with those electronic bass lines. There's glitch involved. Both of them started in the electronic music scene in the late 90s and they had a debut Hello World. Their sophomore, Champions Of Wonder, just recently dropped off of Illegal Arts (Girl Talk, Wobbly) .
I was totally surprised and stoked when I heard that glitch hopper, Yea Big collaborated on their first album and 3 tracks off their new album. Now you're guaranteed awesome bit sampled electronica with the ambient pop. Read more about their bio, interesting short backgrounds. Get these tracks now!

Barcelona based veteran producer, Guillermo Scott Heren, has been working on everything for a long time, and now through Warped Records, he's bringin' out Prefuse 73's next album, Preparations.  The album's single "Class Of 73 Bells" has already created tons of positive reviews for this upcoming album. For those of you who don't know, Prefuse 73 is one of the solo projects of Heren that has many elements and great combinations of jazz, down tempo, hip hop, dance, electronic, and glitch rock.  Prefuse has collaborated with some of my favorites including Zero 7, MF DOOM, Beastie Boys and Kazumasa Hashimoto.  Heren's incredible multi-instrumental talents and his thorough knowledge and appreciation for the electronics side has created yet another consistent album that boasts a complete mastering of sound.
