Another apology for another extended absence, my laptop has been out of action and so barring the occasional late night borrowing of a friend's I've been unusally absent from the internet. I've returned to find a wide variety of good new stuff floating around, so expect much more regular posts in weeks to come. To ease you back in, I'll start with one of the best tracks I've heard in a long time. Joy Orbison has been riding on the crest of the wave that ambient 2-step dubstep has been creating in the second half of this year, and for good reason. He really blew up with the release of Hyph Mngo a few months back, garnering support from all the big names, but in my opinion this remix blows it out of the water. Four Tet's original is a masterpiece but this is just so sublimely dreamy and optimistic. It has a great initial impact and it only seems to grow. Excuse the introduction from Four Tet at the start, the full vervsion will have to be bought! In a similar vein is this release from Darkstar, who seems to be really at home with this sort of sound. If you're ever feeling stressed, here's your medicine.
Four Tet - Love Cry (Joy Orbison Remix)
Darkstar - Aidy's Girl's A Computer
