Rhythm Incursions / Raid System aka RIRS – May ’10

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).

Rhythm Incursions / Primus Luta aka RIPL – May ’10

I’m very happy to introduce our first (of two) brand new regular presenters to the Rhythm Incursions airwaves. Primus Luta from AvantUrb joins us for a new monthly show direct from the East coast of the United states. Alongside DDay One’s semi-regular show from L.A we’ve now got two presenters repping both sides of the country.

Regular listeners will remember the name as he’s guested on the show quite a few times in the last year, first with the retrospective Beat Construction mix in April, and then with 3 parts of his four-part The Vanguard series earlier this year. An avid music fan and musician, he holds the same interest in new music as we do and brings to the show the same open minded and embracing attitude that we try and put into ours. After chatting by email, following his work and putting his mixes on the show for the best part of a year, it felt like a natural progression to bring him on board.

Here’s some words from the man himself regarding the new show, which has been dubbed RIPL:

For the first episode of RIPL the aim was to give a broad idea of the type of stuff you can expect to hear over the coming months. This is an incredible period in music, with folk from the four corners really representing at the leading edge, where sounds and styles are being born every minute. We like to umbrella these into singular genres for simplicity, but the truth of the matter is that genre’s themselves have become modular.

Each genre, each sub-genre, is like a pebble dropping into the ocean of sound sending out ripples in concentric circles. They bounce off of each other, absorb one another’s energy, intersect, and create new ripples, new sounds, new genres, new sub genres. This show is all about the ripples. Okay I just made that up. It sounded good though, nowhere near as good as the music itself. Bring on the RIPL!!

Primus Luta will be holding it down on the second week of each month starting next month with his RIPL show. He will be followed by our other new presenters XLII and Broken Haze from Raid System in Tokyo – who regular listeners will remember we featured recently in a 3-part special – who will hold down the third week of the month starting in June (their debut show goes out next week). And then on the last week of the month our regular show will continue to go out. So that’ll be 3 times the amount of regular music coming your way each month, each from a different continent but with the same aim of bringing discerning music to discerning ears.

Please leave your feedback on this show so we can continue to build and take in your input as well.

Enjoy!

2tall – The Space Race

A deep space transmission reached us at Rhythm Incursions this week, coming from somewhere familiar and signed by none other than 2tall, universal astronaut, extended Rhythm Inc family member and producer at large. The sounds of the transmission are warm and comforting, much needed in these cold and snowy times. Once we decoded the transmission, the result was an hour of the latest sounds from across the planet beamed straight into your speakers.

So we suggest you turn it up to 11 and strap up for a race across the universe carried by basslines and some of the finest beats, new and old.

Also look out for 2tall‘s forthcoming release under his Om Unit moniker, which should be incoming on Terrorhythm records in the coming months. It’s been getting support from Benji B on BBC 1xtra and Alexander Nut on Rinse FM and having heard it we can tell you it’s well worth the wait.

Rhythm Incursions: January 09

This month’s show comes literally in the nick of time, with less than 24 hours to go before we hit February. Still the benefit of a slight delay combined with the beginning of the new year is that we have a ridiculous amount of new music to go through this month, and I mean a lot.

One month in, and 2009 is already shaping up to be an interesting year with some really decent full length releases in the first few months of the year, most of which are highlighted in this month’s show. From L.A to Australia, England to Japan the show takes in new tracks from the likes of Exile, Filastine, Harmonic 313, Jneiro Jarel, Sleeper, Ras G, Two Fingers (aka Amont Tobin, Sway and Doublick) and Lukid among others. Most of these guys have got new releases out now or forthcoming in the next few months, so if you like what you hear be sure to check the links and support the artists.

To top all this freshness we also have a mini-feature on a Rhythm Incursions favourite, DJ Signify. His new album, ‘Of Cities,’ is being released on Bully Records this month and to celebrate we’re airing a couple of tracks, including a really tasty Aesop Rock collabo, as well as my favourite track from his previous LP on Lex.

So if all this isn’t enough to convince you to tune in then I’m not quite sure what will. Seriously. Download and tracklist are below as usual. And stay tuned for more guest mixes in February as well as Trick’s first show of the year and more regular shows from our fine roster of presenters.
