DDay One – In Session no.8 ‘Think and Grow Rich’

We return to Los Angeles for the first show of the year hosted by our man DDay One. In fine style he’s bringing you fresh sounds arranged around a theme taken from a best-selling book by Napoleon Hill. I’ll let him explain it all…

This session is along the lines of the Blend Meditation mixes in that the music was specifically chosen to create an atmosphere that motivates the listener.

This time it’s a tribute to the Great Depression era bestselling book “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill. Blended in between classic breaks, atmospheric pulses and world premieres are brief descriptions of the principles of the text, taken from an LP of the same title narrated by Earl Nightingale (circa 1956).

The 13 Principles of “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill:
Desire, Faith, Auto Suggestion, Specialized knowledge, Imagination, Organized Planning, Decision, Persistence, Enthusiasm, Power of the Master Mind Group, The Brain, Subconscious Mind, The Sixth Sense

Shouts to the artists featured! Sit back and enjoy!

Peace**
Dday One

Broke Dancin – Dubstep mix

We return like a bad rash for 2010 with a mix by Broke Dancin, brought to you by our California connection Dday One. This mix is a dubstep special, short but to the point and packing a certain sub punch.

Here’s some words from Dday:

Craving a fix? Broke Dancin delivers a heavy dose for the bass headz with a special Rhythm Inc Dubstep medley. Some info: Rancho Cucamonga’s Tim Ampie started off with two turntables, various drum machines and inspiration from friends. This later progressed to manipulating sounds with controllers aided by Ableton and various plug-ins. You can find some of his personal productions and beat-tapes at myspace.com/brokedancin. He is currently making moves with Swndle One, Nimmo, and past guests Marques Lafelt and the Content (L)abel. Don’t Sleep!!!
-Dday One (Rhythm Incursions/Project Mooncirlce/Content)

So without further ado let me wish you all the best for the new year and decade and get stuck into Broke Dancin’s dubstep mix. Next up are some very special guest mixes from Japan. More info soon.

Rhythm Incursions – October 09

Despite it being nearly one week into November, we’re bringing you the October show which suffered the delaying combo of both my laptop dying and a rather nasty cold hitting me in the same week. The show was actually wrapped 2 weeks ago but we couldn’t get it out till now. Lucky you though, as you’ll be getting another show in a few weeks with our November edition.

I realised as I was putting the tracklist together that for some reason this month features a rather high number of freely available tracks. This is in part a reflection of my own listening habits (and the fact I spend way too much time on the internet) but also I think of the move by artists and labels to make more music available freely as a way to promote paying releases, gigs and other merchandise. Lastly I would also say that the increasing number of free tracks in our playlists this year is a reflection of the increase in quality in free music. Whereas before free tracks where often throwaway material, today an increasing number of artists are releasing bootlegs, remixes and their own tracks for free and keeping a high quality control on it. Again I think this is something that plays into the aforementioned ‘free music as promotion’ vehicle. All the artists with a freely available track in this month’s show also have physical, paying releases and quite a few are actually established artists in their own ’scenes’.

What about the music though? This month we take in a rather wide range of music, reflecting the diversity of what’s been trickling into our inbox/hands. From the psychedelic meets Afghani traditional music of Ariana Delawari to straight beats (and some incredible flips) from KenLo, fLako, Fulgeance and Dibiase via tribal house vibes from Blue Daisy, 21st century boogie from Dam Funk, hard-hitting hip hop from Kids in Tracksuits and Mr Lif and forward-thinking productions from Om Unit, Mike Slott and Talen. And that’s only part of it, there’s more and it’s all high quality as far as I’m concerned.

This month’s mini-feature is a tie-in with the 5th anniversary of the Hyperdub label. Headed by Kode 9, Hyperdub has long been a favourite at Rhythm Inc, with Trick regularly playing the label’s early releases as both the show and label share roughly the same birthdays. To celebrate their anniversary Hyperdub have curated an incredible compilation, called ‘5′, spanning two CDs or 5 12″s and featuring classic material from the label’s archive, unreleased one-offs and 15 or so brand new productions from the label’s artists and friends including names like Flying Lotus, Mala, Martin, Samiyam, Ikonika, Quarta330, and more. It’s fair to say that ‘5′ is the final nail in the coffin for lesser labels, if it was even needed, that shows just how influential and forward thinking Hyperdub has been as an independent over the years. From its humble beginnings to its current wide palette of sounds, Hyperdub continues to do what everyone least expects, and that’s just one of many reasons why we love them and their music. For the feature we’ve got four tracks from the compilation taking in The Bug under his King Midas Sound alias, Mala, Kode 9 and Samiyam – music as different as it comes and yet somehow logically intertwined.

So enough with the words, sit back and crank the volume for 2h of the latest and freshest music. And stay tuned for some special shows coming up in the month. For now enjoy!

Project Mooncircle – PMC050 Anniversary Mix

As hinted on our twitter last week, we’re very happy to bring you a world premiere this fine Monday morning in the shape of a celebratory mix from the Project Mooncircle label. What’s the celebration? The label’s 50th release, a worthy landmark of achievement for a small, indie label that has always stuck to its guns and not compromised its aims and music over its 7 years of existence. And considering the way the music industry has been going in the last decade, said landmark is even more worthy of celebration.

So with all this mind, Gordon and the whole crew have put together a retrospective mix celebrating the label’s 50 releases and featuring music from 30 artists who have each graced the label at one point or another in time, from MC/producers such as MF Doom, John Robinson and Lewis Parker to forward thinking producers such as 40 Winks, Jahbitat, Robot Koch, Lambent and Mr. Cooper. Also included in the mix are previews of new releases from Obba Suppa and Japanese beat maker Kan Sano.

The whole thing is lovely mixed and put together by the PMC crew and comes with special made artwork which the crew put together on a wall in Berlin at night last week. So without further ado I’ll leave you with some words from the PMC crew and a link to d/l or stream the mix. As Gordon pointed out when we were talking last week, Rhythm Inc was the first show on European airwaves to air PMC’s music 6 years ago when Trick and Waxfactor started on Resonance FM and I remembered discovering them and the Beta Bodega coalition thanks to the show, so it’s a real pleasure and honour to be there again 7 years on to celebrate the label’s achievements.

Massive thanks to Gordon and the PMC family for the love on this mix. Enjoy!

We bring music with a message and with quality and content to our fans. The music industry and the media form the taste of too many listeners of the 21st century.

Namo – Chin Straps and Dirt Naps

Namo returns to the Rhythm Inc airwaves with a little help from Dday One. With his first mix for us back in March this year proving rather popular, we’re grateful to Dday for bringing back this L.A resident to the show.

Chin Straps and Dirt Naps is a bit more in your face than the first mix if you will, feature a selection of the heavier, bottom-ended dubstep of recent years alongside some mellower joints. Hence the name.

Without much ado we’ll let the music do the speaking. And be sure to hit the man up on his myspace if you like what you hear and what to know more.

Dday One – In Session no.6 “Music for Eclipse Watching”

Greetings and welcome to another installment of Rhythm Incursions. It’s been a minute, I am glad to be back in the mix for you!

This session is a bit different from the accustomed live mixes which included mostly new and classic material. This time the music selected was inspired by a specific topic. Since I am in full studio/beatmaking mode I foresee the next few podcasts to be in this nature, as going through stacks of vinyl is once again a daily routine.

Music for Eclipse Watching – Compiled by Dday One

60 min mix of cosmic sounds, acetate artifacts and sequencer pulsed rhythms to help in the wonderful splendor that is eclipse watching.

Dates of future eclipse + Other Info – http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse.html

Peace**
Dday One

P.S: Thanks to every who got the limited Dday One “Journal” CDR w/ Content (L)abel t-shirt from Samplist.com, there are a few left. Also thanks to everyone that has been tuning in, please collect and share these mixes and support the artists. Much love from the heat blazing Los Angeles….
