A spicy techno stew for you that brings in delightfully strange soundscapes and maniacal techno riddims at a deliriously slow 115 bpm tempo…

I had really just planned to play a few goofy techno tracks unmixed like the Bootsy Collins track for people who had been living under a rock without Dirtybird, but these intoxicating bombs got me in this swirl that needed a blen. Figuring out what the hell I was gonna throw in the blender was the real challenge. Now it’s way more technooo than I usually go, but these tracks are just too badass and wierd simultaneously and I wanted to share the vibe of a 8am wonkavision or 3pm poolside puddling that can utilize such slow tempos. Take note of LA locals Android Cartel as their whole Androidica EP is delicious and freshly baked. Spiced with tapatio and splashed with thinly veiled excitement for Sasha this weekend and Loco Dice last weekend at Avalon, tonight’s meal:

And finally some lullabies from Sasha’s “New Emissions of Light and Sound” OST. Beautiful!!

Lee Burridge and Danny Howells came into LA Friday, Feb 26, 2010 and played a hell of a good set for Control at Avalon in Hollywood.  After a bit of rest, records, and whining that we wish we could see them again in San Francisco that next Saturday…Tommy and I decided that we did indeed need plane tickets and wound up in SF by 4pm Saturday. Just in time to reconnect with my good friends at http://listedproductions.com and head over to 1015 Folsom to hear their phenomenal 6+ hour set!  And who knew that Lee would push forth for a staggeringly good 7 hour afterparty tagteam set with Mike Khoury.  An AMAZING journey making it an incredible and musically-gluttonous weekend. Truly one of the best this year!
