As Heard From Mars

One of Minus‘ predominant artist Heartthrob will be playing Fabric on saturday and he offers you this full quality track as an incentive. It seems more expressive than most of his past work. The main line, which is predominant does it for me. It’s real fun to hear grainy aggressive synths and bass lines in minimal, the way Cobblestone Jazz, Extrawelt and Minilogue do it.

I’ve been waiting long enough to post some Cobblestone Jazz. They’re starting up the touring again after launching their second full length, the Modern Deep Left Quartet. I haven’t got a chance to see them live, but its a full analog trio with background in jazz music. The guys literally jam on stage. Check up their dates, and for those in London they’ll be at Fabric on April 24th. No Montreal dates yet… Here is Fiesta, a track the was released long before the album, along with an aggressive techno tune called Traffic Jam. Check out their album, Children and Chance dub are my picks.
