Two well-respected artists have finally decided to make new music! Lucky for you, we got it all here...
Label: FUNCK Music
Release: Skinetic Culpture
Artist: Roel Funcken
Genre: Dub
Okay, so we all know robots
haven’t taken over the world (yet), aliens aren’t probing our brains (well, it
could happen), and the flying cars don’t exist (I wish), but what we do have is
someone at border of a new futuristic sound: Roel Funcken. With his sophomore
album, Skinetic Culpture, Funcken creates an other-worldly sound, and you
can’t help but feel like you’re in some kind of futuristic, life-size video
game, with an insane robotic dub style mix and berserk head-bobbing beats. With
his layering of different engineering sounds, one cannot help but ask, “ Is he
from Earth?” His first track, “Subject Matter” it starts off with a dub beat,
then transforms into a surreal futuristic one. No wonder one would feel like
they’re in robot heaven on the dance floor.
Label: Kranky
Release: Exile
Artist: Charalambides
Genre: Alternative
The innovative group,
Charalambides, presents their new album, Exile, an artistic alternative release with moving,
hypnotizing tones mixed with soothing waves of sound. Exile creates a meaningful and bizarre stir that makes you
think, “No wonder it took five years of recording and traveling to create
locations in creating this indescribable piece of art.” Each song delivers a spiritual-like effect, yet they
have different layers and moods that create other worlds. For example, the
track “Words Inside,” has a beautiful and sensual melody, but also a hauntingly
alluring twist. The song “Autumn Leaves,” produces a raw sound with an unhinged
guitar that gives a feeling as if you were there in the room with just the
guitar. An incredible album that has breath-taking effects.
