Having made it safe and sound to Tokyo after 20h on planes, I’m posting this before I pass out from jetlag and exhaustion. Our FoF mix series returns after a month hiatus with a guest mix from London’s Streets of Beige – purveyors of some of the more interesting London line ups in recent months including live appearances from Letherette and My Dry Wet Mess.

Bare Girls from Streets of Beige put together this guest mix continuing the tradition of the series reflecting his own tastes and some of the more underrated producers out there from Japan, the U.S and Belgium among others. Here’s some text from the man himself about the mix, a photo to accompany it above and full links to download/stream and tracklist below that:

The journey of being asked to make this mixtape through to sending in the finished product has been riddled with as much excitement as it has complexities and also isolation, caused largely by significant changes that all of us in the team are currently going through on various levels.

When making this mix I was thinking about the sensitive precipice we straddle whenever we’re flung into a period of rapid and unavoidable change – between embracing the emergence of opportunity, or being weighed down by the unfamiliarity of our position and the uncertainty we face. And how finding the inspiration and courage to avoid the sometimes bleak void that manifests itself in the later can be an intense emotional struggle.

This resulted in the tender, organic and touching moments at the beginning of this mix that are given a timely shock awakening by a hit of full on sample-chopping mastery courtesy of Cupp Cave a good ten songs in. Along with his take on modern beats I’ve tried to cast light on a range of producers who I feel are criminally underrepresented. This includes (in no particular order) Knxwledge, Lapalux, Blank & Kytt, Monkey_sequence.19, Morpheground, Duke Hugh and several more who you can ogle on the tracklisting.

Of course there are some seasoned producers on there too (and a selection of field recordings from recent adventures with the 404), and having melded these elements together on a sleepy Sunday afternoon this set just the right tone for a more mellow and laid-back selection, but one that was still so vital and exciting that you can practically smell the fresh blood here.

Big thanks to Leeor and Streets of Beige for the mix. Check SoB’s Facebook page for more on them and upcoming parties. And look out for killer releases from FoF in the coming months including the Salva LP (out now) and forthcoming LPs from Groundislava and Mexicans with Guns – check out the latest show for previews or head to their website for more.

Closing the first month of 2011 is our regular Rhythm Incursions broadcast. As always we’ve got 2 hours of fresh new music for your ears, perfect remedy to beat the gloom and doom of January (unless you live south of the hemisphere in which case we’re not talking to you).

This month’s show has also got a distinct house flavour with a mini feature looking at the work of Moodymann, music from the Circus Company label in New York, a preview of Mike Slott and Martyn’s collabo, some techno from Rush Hour with the MRSKT remix of Anthony Shake Shakir and a lot of upcoming music from Illum Sphere, Baron Retif & Conception Perez, Graciela Maria, Kahn, Pazes, Boxcutter, Morgan Zarate, J Rocc, Himuro Yoshiteru, Bilal, Benny Tones and more. Also we’ve got previews of music from EAN and Om Unit – two artists we’re banking on to have a rather excellent 2011.

It’s definitely been one of the most enjoyable shows to put together and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together. As always full tracklist is below with links to all artist and labels. You can subscribe to our RSS/iTunes/newsletter and never miss a show – we’ll be revamping our newsletter shortly with a monthly digest, so if you aren’t on it yet sign up now!

That’s it, I’ll let you to enjoy the show. Simply stream or download below.

And so the end of year arrives and with it our last show of 2010. The last of our end of year shows, this one follows the 2009 best of mix I did last year though instead of spreading across two shows I tried to squeeze all I could into one session. Make no mistake, despite the naysayers and the doom and gloom surrounding the music industry in general, for me 2010 has been a rather good year music wise. On one side there’s seemingly more music than ever, and with that comes a certain lack of quality control. On the other, this lack of quality control and breakdown of the traditional models within the industry has I believe given various labels and artists in the ‘underground’ a lot more potential for flourishing. As the old saying goes, you’ve just got to look closer to find the gold among all the noise.

I originally had 160 odd tracks earmarked for this show. A couple of days of ruminating and trying things out and I managed to keep it down to 60 or so, as well as the mini feature on All City Records, my label of the year (as you should know by now – they did two guest mixes for us earlier this month). In the process of putting the mix together it first occurred to me that if you consider the amount of music I received this year for the show (at a guess I’d say 500 odd releases, maybe even more) then there really is a big job of sifting through everything to find the stuff that’s actually worthy of a best of mix. Even then I had to leave stuff out that I wished could have been fitted. The criteria (if you will) was a mix of what I’d played on the show in the last 12 months and which I considered to be well above par, as well as tracks that have been staples in my DJ sets and tracks from albums that have barely left my portable player all year. The result is the following tracklist. Apologies to those I missed, but if anything it’s the perfect excuse for you to go over all the shows we’ve put out in the last year (hint hint). I also tried to avoid too much duplication with the previous two end of year shows from Primus Luta and Raid System.

So that’s it for 2010, another year under the belt and onwards. Rhythm Incursions has seen a lot of changes this year – new website, new presenters, new regular guest series. It’s been an absolute blast, and I want to thank everyone who’s made the show what it is and who works out of their own time towards continuing to make this one of the finer podcast series out there. In no specific order much love and thanks to Primus Luta, XLII, Broken Haze, Dday One and Leeor at FoF for their work. A big thank you as well to all the labels, artists and PR who send us stuff and take time to talk to us, sometimes even bowing to our pressures for guest spots. Among them (too many to mention) special thanks to Olan at All City, Gordon at Mooncircle, Marcus at Planet Mu & Hyperdub, Flip at Error Broadcast, Melissa at Tailored, the Outpost, Alex Nut and Alex Chase. Lastly big thanks to my close friends and inspirations Om Unit and Vinilificio.

Right then, enough of the chatter. I’ll let you enjoy the mix. It’s roughly 2h15, with the first 2 hours taken by the mix and the last 15 minutes the All City records megamix celebrating some of their releases from 2010. I was intent on doing a proper megamix of all the releases, but just couldn’t due to time and other engagements. Still this should give you the last push to check their stuff if you haven’t yet. No talking, all mixing and music!

As always stream and/or download below, or simply subscribe to the RSS/iTunes/email. The playlist is so long I can’t find the energy of linking all the labels/websites this time so PLEASE if you like what you hear than check the playlist and go out there and support the artists and the music. You can browse all available shows by artists on this page, and all previous shows have full, linked tracklists.

Love and blessings, see you in 2011!

Mini feature ends

We roll into the month of December with the prerequisite end of year best of’s and playlists. Up first is Primus Luta with his RIPL show. He runs down his favourite joints of 2010, well the ones he managed to fit in, using his award system – which he premiered back in the summer with the mid-year awards.

In there you’ll find a veritable who’s who of labels and artists we’ve supported this year and since we started. Labels like Planet Mu (who got label of the year from me in November), Hyperdub, Warp, Brainfeeder, R&S, Project Mooncircle all feature alongside Alpha Pup which Primus decided to make his label of the year. The mini feature looks at the Alpha Pup’s output as well as that of the labels it distributes like Elm & Oak, Brainfeeder and Friends of Friends.

Here’s some words from the man himself on the show:

Awwe man this was probably my hardest show to compile, because there was just way too much good music this year. I feel bad for all of the amazing stuff that I left off. Even more, the whole time I’m compiling goodness just keeps dropping. Makes for an exciting 2011, but first of course a little recap of the incredible 2010. Back in August we did the RIPL Mid-Year Report, and so for this episode we’ve got the 2010 RIPL Awards. Tried to cover a good spectrum of things with this and give the respect where it was due, but again there was just way too much music to possibly represent it all in just one show. See you in 2011, promises to be killer.

We won’t bore you with more words and instead just let you get stuck in with what is definitely a great opening show for our end of year recap. It’s going to make my end of year show certainly more difficult to compile!

As always you can download and/or stream the show below. Or subscribe to our RSS, Itunes or newsletter and never miss a show (details and links below). Full tracklist with links to all labels and artists also below as always.

And don’t forget to check RIPL’s growing archive – there’s nearly 12 hours of music in there already for you to enjoy and discover!

For now though over to Primus who’ll take you through the RIPL end of year awards. Enjoy!

The first of our December guest mixes, celebrating some of our favourite musical people, labels and happenings this year, comes from a little known London producer by the name of Brey.

Sometime around the beginning of the year he sent me a track on Soundcloud which really caught my ear, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. I followed him on Soundcloud and sort of forgot about it, until Toby from Svetlana Industries emailed me about him, prompting a revisit of the Soundcloud page where I found a mass of new tracks. Once more I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and originality on display. Toby also hinted that he wanted to get a release from the man on his label, which then led to us all hooking up in August for Brainfeeder.

Brey then sent us a bunch of tracks and demos and we got talking about a guest mix, which you can check below. Here’s some words from the man on it:

“This mixtape was made in mind with the music I usually listen to around this time of year. For me winter is where the music I listen to is of a colder palette whether it be folk, jazz etc. These tracks are auditory companions on my day to day journeys in what’s already a harsh and despondent city (London) but with an underlining sense of motivation. Free from the restrictive boundaries of bpm and genre, welcome to Winterlich… hold tight Serge Gainsbourg”

Ironically this mix is the perfect answer to one of our first guest mixes of 2010, LV’s Winter Aural Blanket.

As for Brey, the man has a remix on BD1982′s latest EP for Seclusiasis (which we featured in last month’s show) and as I said above will be releasing something on Svetlana in 2011, as well as more to come no doubt. You can find him on Soundcloud and Twitter. Also keep an ear for the Die Barbie Musik Kollektiv the man is a part of. Oh yeah and check the Svetlana Industries website for more on them too, they’ve got a new release now and some lovely freebies to keep you warm too.

For now though sit back and enjoy a 40 odd minute journey into Winter, perfect for the current weather conditions here in the UK. Massive thanks to Brey for his time, and Toby for the hook up too. Download and/or stream below, or just sign up to our RSS/iTunes/newsletter and never miss a show.

Sometimes life gets in the way, especially when like us here at Rhythm Incursions you do something for the love out of your own time. Last month both Primus Luta and myself had to cancel our regular shows due to various life stuff getting in the way – in his case a recent trip to Seattle for the Decibel festival and some rehearsals for his new CSS show (remember the debut mix here for download). The plus side of missing a show though is that there’s plenty to go through the next time around, and so this month’s RIPL show comes packing with fresh bits with just over 2 hours of music for your ears.

We’ve got recent releases from the likes of Kidkanevil, Eskmo, Altered Natives, The Gaslamp Killer, Darling Farah, OL, My Dry Wet Mess, Lone, Eliphino, Elgato, Flying Lotus, Dday One, Dorian Concept remixing Nosaj Thing, VIVEK and more alongside forthcoming releases from Untold, Ramandanman & Appleblim, Helixir, Lunice, Asusu, AD Bourke and Cosmin TRG. Like we said plenty to get stuck into.

As always you can download and/or stream the show below. Remember to sign up to our iTunes, RSS or email and get the shows directly to your inbox/reader.

And of course if you like what you hear than be sure to go out there and support the artists.

Next up this month is our regular serving of fresh new sounds from Tokyo, courtesy of the Raid System tag team XLII and Broken Haze.

With a raft of gigs and other engagements recently, it would appear this podcast reaches us from the back of a car speeding at 140 km/h on the outskirts of central Tokyo if XLII is to be believed. Despite the conditions the boys have come through with the usual thickness of bass heavy sounds and other sonic goodies.

This month we’ve got new music from Warp golden boys Flying Lotus and Rustie, Flux Pavillion and Foreign Beggars, edIT remixing Machinedrum, Blixaboy, Ramadanman, Slugabed giving Roots Manuva’s classic Witness a ridiculous stomping treatment, and a whole lot more.

So as always strap in and get ready for the ride. Links to download/stream are below, and remember to sign up to our iTunes/RSS/email to stay updated automatically.

No RIPL show this month due to life technicalities, but Dday One is up next this Friday instead. Back next month with the regular roster. Enjoy!

Stepping up first as always this month is Primus Luta with RIPL. Slight change this month as he takes the occasion to look over the first half of the year and highlight favourites and must buys. I’ll leave the explaining to him but one eye over the tracklist and you’ll see Rhythm Inc favourites everywhere including All City records, Alpha Pup, Flying Lotus and Brainfeeder, Ghostly and more.

So this month as the summer nears end I decided to do an early reflection on the year and highlight some of the standout work I’ve heard throughout the year. So we’ll call this the RIPL Mid-Year Report with the very special RIPL Mid-Year Awards. Overall the selection gives a good picture of just how much ground is being covered by producers in 2010. With categories ranging from the “Wobble the Bass” award, the “Ultimate Break Beat” and the “Dr. Dre’s Detox” award, well lets just say it’ll put a smile on your face.

All of this in prep to actually do some sort of award thing for the end of the year. If not for the dope music and occasional vibes, check this out to see where my head is about ‘awarding’ the beat scene and fall through with some comments to let me know if there’s awards I got wrong, ones you really like, or ones you think I missed.

So that’s it. As the man said comments are much welcomed, let us know what you think!

As always show is available to direct download and stream below alongside full tracklist. Or just sign up to the RSS/iTunes feeds and never miss a show. Stay tuned for a guest mix from B-Ju next monday, RIRS August next friday and a very special guest mix from My Dry Wet Mess, the latest signing to Daedelus’ label, the following monday. It’s gonna be a good end of summer trust us.

We start the last week of what has been a very busy month here on Rhythm Inc with the first show from our second new team of presenters all the way live (well sort of) from Tokyo, Japan. Following the debut of Primus Luta last week with his new regular RIPL show (peep it here if you missed it) we’re very happy to welcome XLII and Broken Haze to the Rhythm Inc family for a new monthly podcast under the banner of their Raid System label and collective. Seeing as how I’m feeling highly inspired for names, we decided to take Primus’ idea of RIPL and make this new show RIRS. Bit more of a mouth full that’s for sure but hey. If you have a better idea answers on the back of a postcard in the comments below please.

Regular listeners will remember Raid System from a series of guest mixes we aired earlier this year featuring Broken Haze, XLII and Ken One. Following this we got talking with XLII and much like happened with Primus Luta it felt like a very logical thing to invite the guys on board for a regular show. So every month the dynamic duo of XLII and Broken Haze will be bringing you some fresh new music, exclusives and more from their label, friends and artists worldwide alongside some light hearted banter and presentation styles in English and Japanese. Considering that Japan is now our third biggest country for visits it’s only right for us to rep a show for the Japanese massive. 日本人のみんなさんよろしくおねがいします！

As with Primus’ first show, this is a test run of sort while we iron out all the kinks before officially launching our new schedule in June and over the summer. So please do let us know of any feedback in the comments section.

XLII and Broken Haze have put together a selection of new and forthcoming releases for you this month. Each show will feature segments presented by each of them, going back to back. This first show features a selection of new music from many of our favourites like Starkey, Paul White, Planet Mu and Lorn alongside many new artists who we haven’t featured in the past.

So without further ado please welcome our latest presenters to the Rhythm Incursions family – XLII and Broken Haze. As usual direct download link and stream are below. If you don’t want to miss a show please subscribe via our RSS or iTunes feeds (links in the sidebar).
