March 30th, 2013 | File Under: Download This Now | One comment

Balam Acab has uploaded two unmixed/unmastered tracks to his Soundcloud. Available as a high quality download below, they’re gorgeous, heart-tugging reminders us of what got everyone excited about the young producer in the first place—See Birds, the EP that helped launch one of our favorite relatively new labels, Tri Angle.

As for whether this means a new album is on the way soon, Balam Acab says he’s starting his next LP in April, and that these two tracks are taken from the Wander/Wonder sessions…

DOWNLOAD THIS NOW: El Perro Del Mar, “Hold Off the Dawn (Vessel Remix)”

February 27th, 2013 | File Under: Download This Now | 2 comments

Of all the El Perro Del Mar remixes that’ve appeared on her Soundcloud page over the past couple months, it doesn’t much darker than the warped rendition of “Hold Off the Dawn” that’s available below. Produced by one of our favorite Tri Angle artists, Vessel, it pulls the singer into a black hole while unidentified voices steam up your speakers and a stack of sheet metal comes crashing down.

Excellent stuff, if a bit evil, although if you peek past the jump, you’ll find a comparatively fun-loving George Michael edit Vessel just leaked as well.

EDITOR’S PICK: The Haxan Cloak, “The Mirror Reflecting (Part 2)”

January 25th, 2013 | File Under: Editors' Picks | Leave A Comment

Now here’s a track we were absolutely giddy to find on our Soundcloud stream this morning: “The Mirror Reflecting (Part 2),” a.k.a. the first missive from Excavation, the long-awaited—in these offices, at least—Tri Angle debut of The Haxan Cloak. Like its uplifting sleeve art over to your left, the seven-minute track suffocates its trail of smoke ring samples, fractured synths and ominous orchestral flourishes ever so slowly. Maybe not the brightest way to start your Friday, but this is absolutely essential listening if you’re into the bleaker corners of today’s underground electronic music scene.

Is it April 30th yet?

2012 IN REVIEW: Type and Tri Angle’s Favorite Labels

December 31st, 2012 | File Under: 2012 In Review | One comment

Now that we’ve gotten our year-end lists out of the way, self-titled would like to share the thoughts of our favorite artists and labels. Here’s what the founders of Type (John Twells, a.k.a. Xela) and Tri Angle (Robin Carolla, also of the killer blog 20 Jazz Funk Greats) Records—two of 2012′s most consistent imprints—had to say about everything from the rarified horror scores of Death Waltz to the grid-skipping electronics of PAN…

The Tri Angle album he’s been promising us for the past year is going to have to wait until early 2013, however, with the following snippet holding us off until then…

LONG PLAYER OF THE DAY: Holy Other, ‘Held’

September 7th, 2012 | File Under: Long Player of the Day | Leave A Comment

The Artist/Album: Holy Other, Held (Tri Angle, 2012)

Our Review: At this point, you probably know what a Tri Angle record sounds like. And contrary to popular belief, it’s not so much that godforsaken subgenre ‘witch-house’ as electronic music that’s laced with pitchy vocal snippets and spectral trails of house, hip-hop and R&B. Holy Other’s debut album takes that template into another territory however, making it a fine surrogate for the Burial album we’ve basically given up on hearing anytime soon. Not that Held is a consolation prize or anything; it’s got its own gloomy storyline and heart-sinking sound, as reflected in the empty sheets on its record sleeve.

Available At: Amazon · iTunes
