classic leila jams. i hesitate to use the phrase "trip hop", so i'll stick with this:

this gem from 1998 lays the texture on thick. delightfully distorted loops and vocals create a hypnotic blend, sure to soothe your monday woes, even on tuesday.

50 weapons. bass music. deal with it.

oh my GLOB this one is hot off the press and is DESTRUCTIVE.

old nation jams with an all-new acid getup by jtc, the seasoned acid (and just about everything else) warrior.

just as he made this song better, i make you better. i have better taste in music than you do.

[ihavebettertastethantherestof]

let your brain swell on this one. it's ok.

uwe schmidt has more finesse & control than he has aliases, and he has a god-damned truck-load of pseudonyms.

and if you think the jam stops kicking at the three minute mark, hold on. thank me later. i have better taste in music than you do.

in the moments before you drift into space, remember who brought you there. and remember: i have better taste in music than you do.

i mentioned luke earlier, so i guess it had to happen. dnb fire with gooey synths dripping all over it — amen.

oh... you didn't know amen andrews was one of vibert's aliases? i did. i have better taste in music than you do.

classic heat from the hacienda. i'll give, like... thirty likes to the person who gets me this bad boy on wax. forgetting something? i have better taste in music than you do.

i know, i know, i know... u-ziq dropped an ep/lp combo (first in years). why am i listening to this old jam? well, it was made a while ago but only recently released on paradinas' fantastic collection "somerset avenue tracks (1992 - 1995)" but... shit, i'm getting pedantic.

lush bass, plucky melody and ethereal pads are layered on thick in this simple, yet charming track.

what's that? you're already loving it? so am i. i have better taste in music than you do.

fresh-up records, the magical label/project of ed upton (aka ed dmx aka dmx krew aka edmx... the list goes on) is focused on two things and two things only:

7 inches

funky, groovy vibes

this cut (off of the latest release, the eleventh so far) does not disappoint. swingin' breaks and synth sweeps that are simply begging for some luke vibert acid are graced with the occasional - you guessed it - blip, blip, blip.

what's that? you haven't heard of fresh-up records? i have. i have better taste in music than you do.

cn represents the smoother-sounding side of stian gjevik (for mind-warping acid jams that will put a tear in your eye as they tear your world apart, check out his other alias, eod). this 12" release put out by central processing unit (which, five releases in, is already threatening to become one of the best electronic imprints out there) is full of heat.

and you? you haven't heard of it. and i have. i have better taste in music than you do.

d'arcangelo's "eksel" is a perfect album. you haven't heard of it. i have. i have better taste in music than you do.
