Rhythm Incursions / Raid System aka RIRS – June ’10

We continue June’s installments with our new regular Rhythm Incursions x Raid System show aka RIRS. Presented by the dynamic duo of XLII and Broken Haze from the depths of the Tokyo undergound, or more accurately the comfort of the former’s rather nice studio in the Tokyo suburbs, RIRS June continues the good work they started last month by delivering over 60 mins of new and recently released tracks peppered with exclusives and remixes from their vaults.

For those who weren’t here last month when we announced our new shows, RIRS is presented in both English and Japanese by the Raid System crew and follows our regular show format with a tracklist of recent releases, favourites and forthcoming tracks going out every 3rd week of the month. Each month they’re joined by Primus Luta for the RIPL show (second week of the month) and ourselves for the regular Rhythm Incursions show (last week of the month).

As usual direct download links and stream below, and if you don’t want to have to download each time why not grab our RSS or iTunes feeds?

For now though sit back and enjoy another fresh selection which includes newness from Tokyo Dawn, Africa Hightech, Ital Tek, Soul Litchfield, Starkey, UpMyAlley, Steve Spacek, Himuro Yoshiteru, Poirier, Oilworks, Hessle Audio, Roska, Guido, Rustie, Freddy Todd and many more.

Opti – French Dubs In The Mix

We begin our short series of guest mixes to see in the end of the year with France, courtesy of Opti and the Jarring Effects label.

Based in Lyon and providing music and good vibrations since 1993, Jarring Effects have been on our radar for a while but came to front this year when they hit us up with promos for a range of their recent releases including French dub outfits like High Tone and EZ3kiel as well as South African MC Ben Sharpa, British sub bass ‘freak’ Scorn alongside and many more.

We got talking and out came this guest spot. Originally intended to be a label showcase they’ve instead asked Opti to provide a mix of dub-influenced tracks that trace the links between the traditional dub and its many modern, electronic variants. Additionally the mix also links the label’s output in terms of French dub outfits such as High Tone and their primarily UK counterparts such The Bug, Architeq or even Boxcutter.

It’s a real ride into modern dub vibrations that benefits from a crank on the volume knob (or buttons) and some room to skank a leg.

Below are some words from the label as well as some links for both Jarring Effects and Opti:

Jarring Effects is a Lyon-based independent label. Recognized as leading the French dub scene, Jarring Effects’ sound continues to ramify and proliferate, in the process exploring all fields of electronic, urban and bass music.

Over more than a decade, Jarring Effects has released close to a 100 records, from pure live dub (High Tone, EZ3kiel, Brain Damage, Scorn), to underground hip hop with no boundaries (Ben Sharpa, Playdoe, Oddatee, Reverse Engineering) and advanced electronic music (R Zatz, Interlope, Von Magnet).

Beside this main label activity, Jarring Effects also runs a record studio (JFX Studio), organises a yearly festival called Riddim Collision, runs a booking agency and is one the founding members of the platform CD1D, which gathers more than 100 labels to provide digital and physical music.

We are glad to introduce listeners of Rhythm Incursions to our label with a DJ set from Opti (Airflex labs / Jarring Effects crew). We hope you will enjoy this dubwise mix.

For more Jarring Effect related info check the website, as well as the associated Riddim Collision festival and CD1D collective. For more on Opti check the myspace.

Next guest is from Ben One out in Bristol and goes live in 5 days. Stay tuned but for now, as they say, let’s get on with the music. Download link and tracklist below. As usual iTunes and RSS subscribers should have the mix on its way to them and if you’re not yet subscribed be sure to hit the relevant buttons on the right hand side.
