° Com Truise – “Colorvision” °
by Chief

Com Truise is getting ready to release his first LP through Ghostly International later this year, and was nice enough to throw this work in progress that didn’t make the album on his soundcloud over the weekend. 2k11 is going to be a big year for Com. I can’t imagine what the record is going to sound like if this is only a b-side. You can purchase the reissued version of Cyanide Sisters at the Ghostly Store for less than $7.

° SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS: Streets Of Beige °
by Chief

Substitute Teachers is a new mix series from Dipped in Dollars, where we ask an up-and-coming artist to create a mix that will provide us with a better understanding of their process. Streets Of Beige are some of the foremost beat curators working in London at the moment, and I asked its producers, The Fat Controller and Bare Girls, to make a mix that will let us know what they’re all about. So far, this is the best mix of 2k11. Anyone in London must check out their monthly beat night, which will be hosting Letherette and Young Montana at The Old Blue Last this Saturday. Tracklist provided below.

by Chief

Evenings is an electronic producer from Charlottesville, Virignia. It’s taken me awhile to get my hands on his North Dorm EP, but it’s definitely been well worth the wait. Any fans of Star Slinger are going to love this. He has a big release coming out through Double Denim Records later this year, and we’ll throw out more info as soon as we get it.

Evenings – Friend [Lover]

Evenings – Chesapeake

Crimson and I noticed the stems for Toro Y Moi‘s Still Sound were up on Carpark Records‘ soundcloud, and we decided to give it a go. You should like us on Facebook if you’re really into it.
