It’s been official for a while, but we’ve been too busy focusing on the DJ side of the FKL team too much to realize that a dramatic change to music production is about to happen.

I can hardly contain my anticipation. I don’t think Kamo or any other Reason-pervs in our group can either, especially after they see this:

PROPELLERHEADS OFFICIAL REASON 4 BETA MICROSITE

I’m stupidly excited. That Fruit software’s is in for a real run for it’s money.

But there are some of us who are actually doing a very decent job with it.

FRIDAY BUMPER! LOTS OF MP3 SINGLES FOR EXPLOITATION! MARI MARI! DOWNLOAD DOWNLOAD!

I wonder if a headline like that works. Anyway:

—

Audiotrixx, the production / audio engineering arm of the DBCO crew has graced us with a delicious visit back into jungle intensity blended with the new jazz-school sensibilities of modern drum and bass. Visions of Jungle squeezes itself between the hard breaks sounds of more vintage ‘90s junglism on a wailing New York bebop high carved out along lines of glitch and intelligent cuts.

Kamo inform me that this was produced before he went off for formal production training; terrified?

CbellJ has also been hard at work in his Sarawak studio churning out a surprising bootleg fusing the glambowieish Placebo with the aggressive technicalities of german-Schranz.

Angry demon beats with mascara and Brian Molko; terrified?

Tribal Ward is yet another production from CBellJ with a delicious tribal direction reminiscent of earlier Luke Slater and Christian Vogel.

Man – I think we might be hosting one of the angriest Sarawakians ever.

Hardstyle has allot of appeal to my more minimalistic-side. But Geelonger Schmerz has truly outdone himself with a series of productions have seem to have more in common with acid techno than the boring-ass hardstyle floating around on the’net. (Someone prove me wrong)

We’ve also managed to hijack almost all the Geelong DJs – so you’ll be hearing much more of them in future bumpers.

THANK GOD ITS FUCKING FRIDAY! NOW GO FUCKING MIX ME A SET!

Kamo from the DBCO collective, and one of the organizers of the up and coming Bongo! Nights at Muse has recently submitted a single for your listening pleasure.

“Influenced by a series of fantasy novels set in a fictional feudal Japan, Otori sees Kamo tapping into his Asian roots, with a nod to the oldschool jungle/drum n bass sound. His first “properly thought out” dnb track, it’s a deep, rolling tune with uplifting strings, steady beats and a minimal bassline.” ~ Suffian, January.

Otori – Kamo (Promo Single)

We stumbled onto the DBCO collective and Bongo! Bootleg after tracking the movements of Assault and Battery, winners of a Pioneer competition a couple of years ago. Since then, Basil aka Battery, has been working closely with Irman aka Spacebar and Suffian aka Kamo, as well as undergrounders like Beatmonkey, DJ Define, Mac. Who have, in an a huge exodus, differentiated themselves from Loops Collective to form their own big sound.

Since then, we’ve been blown away by the quality of musicianship with all the producers and DJs associated with that clique.

Members of ‘The Works’, Shinji and Hanif, two of the most promising progressive hip hop representatives have recently demonstrated their technique to me, with Hanif via his 1-day production mastery and Shinji via his unconventional, ego-free rhymes. I walked home with my mouth catching insects. They have also promised to submit stuff to Foundationkl.org in the near future.

Additionally, longtime member of the ultra-underground, Beatmonkey have recently resurfaced. Stretched flat with his extremely tight schedule designing automobile aspects, he has also agreed to submit stuff in the near future.

We will definitely be tracking that.
