Tuesday
18 November :: MUTEKNIGHT!!!!!!! |
|
pleas
bear with me in the delay of this beautiful
new album by montreals muteknight. i was supposed
to have it up on the 15th but due to a terrible
visit from the flu, i am just picking the pieces
back up. i am still sick but grinning from this
great new record!
MUTEKNIGHT's self-titled album is the third
release from montreal's corey martin and shawn
joncas. dark and aggressive as often as it is
light and playful, this freelease is full of
nostalgic, granular soundscapes, 8-bit samples
and a love of riddim...

Tuesday
15 July :: taperecorder/MUTEKNIGHT |
|
alright!.
so to make up for the missing may release we
have two releases for july!
first up: muteknight collaborated with vince
rossi of the famous blind dates who are the
legendary backing band for gary wilson on the
wonderfully amazing clockwork e.p.released everywhere
you can download digital music in it's finiest
form...
secondly: taperecorders sophomore effort "the
boombox e.p." goes in a completely different
direction yet still makes a connection with
the mood and feeling of his first release. much
slower this time around, taperecorder uses strange
off kilter textured pads and tones over broken
electro beats to create a unique sound that
invite the listener to add their own ideas and
moments to the songs. say whu? just go take
a listen. it is some beautifully brilliant music...
ok.
so there are only two of us running this little
old mostly free label called galactique. last
month one of us was on a european tour and the
other was making holographic technology. (no,
i am not kidding). so we missed getting the
may release together and we feel bad about that.
sorry folks!
anyway - VER6 has made an album callled 1985
out of songs that were in the top 10 that year.
it is sooo fantastic and fun! we are more than
happy and proud to present this great record.
for free! click the free link above to get it...
