Close

In the showcase seat this week we present dub_teq. Who provided a full on rowdy assault of the ear lobes, and stormed through some 58 tunes in a little under an hour.

SHOWCASE
William Culshaw and Jonathan Hall began their career making and trading mixtapes and various other media between them, and gradually were inspired to move on to their own compositions using basic computer programs recording previously under various pseudonyms before finishing on dub-teq. Taking advantage of a wide array of equipment, the duo have slowly sculpted their style into a more organic and industrial one, drawing influences from a diverse source of acts such as Aphex Twin, LFO, Autechre, Surgeon, Radiohead, Big Youth, and Bjork.

Coming fresh off the back of a string of London performances, dub_teq bought their unique blend of styles to our airwaves with an exclusive live/DJ show. Playing unreleased and previously unheard material from albums ‘Take Action‘ and ‘We’re Not Out to Make Friends‘ dub_teq offered an insight into the relentless pace and energy of their shows. Drawing influence from across the globe, their distinctive blend of hard hitting techno and dub breaks is one not to be missed.

REST OF DA SHOW
Back with a working microphone DVNT mixed it up during the first hour, with new, recent and classic. Opening with the latest from netlabel supreme Myuzyk, and the awesome Skywave System’s remix of K.A.L’s the Whiskey Fist, and moving into the usual darkfloor range of sound.

As usual the archive MP3 is fully track ID'd.

"This set was recorded at Wire, a small basement club in Leeds.
The sound was just right for the space; loud and punchy, with
strong bass where you needed it. Before my set, the temperature
increased as bodies packed the dance floor. I felt relaxed as I
played that night, just letting the set flow wherever it wanted to go,
and the great crowd there flowed with it. This is the first set
I've put online using a new technique which combines the direct
recording with a binaural microphone recording to give a
much better sense of the sound as it was when I played this set."

Rival Consoles is 21-year old IDM-smith Ryan Lee West from Leicester in the Midlands of England. After having supported his city neighbours and label comrades Kyte on an extensive European tour in November 2008, West locked himself away all winter to finish his first full-length album, set to see the light of day in mid 2009. In the meantime fans of his debut ‘The Decadent EP’ will be pleased to hear that on February 23, 2009 Erased Tapes Records will release an exclusive 4-track 7” single / download bundle – Rival Consoles' take on classical music entitled 'helvetica'. Instead of X-Box versus Playstation, here West plays classical against dance music!

Influenced by impressionists like Claude Debussy and modern electronic artists such as Autechre and Daft Punk, Ryan Lee West created a unique signature sound for Rival Consoles. A playful and brutal mix of electronic beats, emotive piano melodies and warm synth string arrangements. Ryan repeatedly performed at the Tate Britain Museum in London where he drew over 2000 visitors into his unpredictable, yet detailed sound drawings. He was the first to represent Erased Tapes Records at the British Music Week 2007 in Cologne, Germany.

In February 2007 he released and toured the more quirky ‘Vemeer EP’ under his second musical alias Aparatec, which sold like hot cakes and earned him IDM, acid and electro fans alike – Brian at Norman Records was ecstatic:

‘Bendy as heck acid electro, that's really bloody accomplished and fresh. He's the first person I've heard to utilise that sound and for him to be progressive with it without resorting to plagiarism earns him big brownie points. I bet even AFX would be impressed with the lad's fantastic efforts. It's his keen ear for warm melodies and tidy, playful beats that makes this such a damn treat.’

New York composer and film scorer Nico Muhly, Daniel James aka Canon Blue from Nashville as well as fellow countrymen The British Expeditionary Force are amongst the first to receive Rival Consoles’ trademark remixes. As the last title on ‘Helvetica’ implies, West added a remix of his debut EP track ‘Seventeen’ to prepare everyone for something extremely more dance-orientated coming up next…

‘Two words: Electro Genius!’ – BBC Radio

'One very hyper man amalgamating the progressive beats of LCD Soundsystem with the wicked techno chaos of Aphex Twin. It is apparent that this is an act which it’s totally cool for you to like!’ – Rock Sound

'The sound of a drum machine smacked by a serial killer invades these harrowing instrumentals making your every waking moment like walking down a darkened street to the sound of rustling bushes. An impressive selection!' – New Noise

'West crafts here a splendid example of modern electronic music at its most interesting and yet, he manages to keep his work accessible and enjoyable.' (4.3/5) – The Milk Factory

Erased Tapes

I.D.M. defines the progressive nature inherent in the works of Richard James the Aphex Twin who espounded on the term I.D.M. during his early history in Cornwall, England. Aphex Twin decided that his work must be named Intelligent Dance Music due in part to the fundamental reality of his superior intelligence level. Anomalys indicate that some may question I.D.M. and decide to censor it on particular forums. However the overwhelming logic and reason states that Intelligent Dance Music is the correct term for the works of Aphex Twin. In conclusion we must tag I.D.M. more often and not tag electronic so I.D.M. is the far superior name. We must ensure that unintelligent people realise that they are not invited to hear the advanced nature of Aphex Twin

I.D.M. is the product of an balanced equation inherent to musicology. Anti-I.D.M. people are the eventuality of an anomaly, and henceforth should be ignored. Despite sincere efforts from the I.D.M. community some still wish to censor I.D.M. and ensure through their dispositions that Intelligent Dance Music will not continue. Precision and accuracy must define the limits of our creations as it is a burden assiduously avoided by the lack of intelligence in our culture. Applying vision to those in the services industries renders us as looking down our nose at their grotesqueness. We naturally know that we are the greatest people to roam the earth. Our art is beyond comprehension. As the authour is a brilliant I.D.M. artist themself, they are unquestionably certain that I.D.M. is the only suitable name for the work of Aphex Twin. We are the best of the best, everyone else is stupid.

We are the special children of intelligent dance music. We are the alpha and omega. The world belongs to us. We are the foundation of intelligence in music and we will progress our ideas through history and time. IDM defines our lives and rules our lives and we will subordinate ourselves accordingly.

I.D.M. was created and invented by Aphex Twin himself, not by American messageboards and not by Wire magazine. Aphex Twin claimed to Grant Wilson Clariddge that more intelligence was required in the complicated processes involved in the creation of futurism's subjugatic cormoxity. Liars are roaming all around us. Liars will censor I.D.M. and force us to suffer the fate of electronic endowments. Believe or not, Electronic Music is the devil in the details, electronics must be ignored. We must continue to progress the conception of a duality based on the forensic examination of intelligent dance music.

You can help the cause of I.D.M..

1. Inexorably we must tag Aphex Twin as I.D.M. else the entire world of music will fall into the hands of the unintelligent proletariat and the small brained commonwealth slaves. Somehow a certain paradox has attempted removal of Aphex Twin from the mindset of the I.D.M. elite. If Aphex Twin's works were somehow removed from I.D.M. it would be the greatest disaster to affect us in decades.

2. We must convince webmaster to censor electronics and electronic music and make sure I.D.M. is written in large JPEG imagery therefore to condition the minds of the proletariat that I.D.M. is the correct term as defined by Aphex Twin in his works Greatest I.D.M. Works.

3. We must discontue the progression of African musical ideas. The time has come for us to create a now bond in our music. A bond between the American "college" spirit of traditional I.D.M. with the works of M3rck records. We must continue our pursuit of small music created on laptops. The trends of modern day must be crushed and therefore we will no longer pursue the works of "acid" or other proletariat concerns. We must continue to deny the effect of Aphex Twin in particular matters.

4. Autechre must be given the recognition that they deserve. They are afterall the true nature of I.D.M. (intelligent dance music). If and when Autechre become the paragon of intelligence in future technology the IQ level of the proletariat will decrease further and the intelligence of the elitists will defend everything. Save I.D.M. and the potential for new engenders in our society will become possible.

5. M3rck records points to the future of I.D.M. based solutions to the next levels of granular and cerebral entertainment spheres.Aphex Twin, AutechreThe TussAFXidm
