This one has been a long time coming. The infamous Jay Scarlett – the man behind the Beat Dimensions compilation, Amp Soul Generation and many more projects – steps up with a guest show featuring none other than eLan, the west coast producer recently signed to Modeselektor’s Monkeytown label (and who featured in our Raid System guest series a few months ago).

Jay and I had been talking about doing some mix swap for a while and we’ve finally managed to lock it down with Jay delivering this ASG Radio special for us and Laurent returning the favour with a guest mix for ASG which will go live at some point today as well [edit: it's now live and streamable right here].

For this show Jay linked up with eLan, who’s been touring Europe, and sat the man down for a chat and selection featuring new tracks, exclusives from the west coast and more. We’ve got new music from eLan, Mike Gao, Bobby Tank, Anneka, and DJ Pound as well as classics from the likes of Dabrye and more.

For more on Jay and his musical offerings check the Amp Soul Generation blog where the man regularly posts a stream of goodies, freebies and the likes. For more on eLan peep the soundcloud where you’ll find details of his latest release and more.

With a good couple of months that has seen them take over the infamous Dommune Ustream broadcast, announce new releases and just generally being great at what they do, Tokyo’s very own Raid System return for another show packed with dancefloor riddims and sweaty numbers.

XLII and Broken Haze once more put together a carefully selected hour of music from the likes of Joker, Gemmy, Modeselektor, Bobby Tank, ill Gates, Knight Riderz and three cuts from the excellent Frite Nite ‘Surreal Estate’ compilation among others. From grime to dubstep, hard edged 4×4 riddims to juke and bass heavy hip hop the boys provide a relentless ride that’s the perfect way to end our month.

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!

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.

Our latest guest mix comes from a long time friend of Rhythm Incursions and Turntable Radio, the German producer and DJ B-Ju. I first discovered and met B in the days of Turntable Radio and scratch forums, when he was one of the most unique and interesting cats to come out of Germany around the early-mid 00s. I still remember his sets as part of the now defunct ITF experimental category as some of the best from that era, and it was no surprise to see him appear in recent years as part of the new school of European producers that are taking the whole electronic hip hop/beats aesthetic into their own hands.

He’s had releases on labels such as Equinox, Dirtybird and more recently Error Broadcast following his earlier years as a turntablist (during which he won a bunch of titles in the DMCs and elsewhere), most of which we’ve featured on the show. He’s currently DJing with his partner in crime Soular all around Germany and working on two new EPs. Check out the latest dates on myspace and exclusive tracks and mixes on Soundcloud.

So as you can gather it’s a real pleasure to have the man drop by for a guest mix. For the occasion he sent a 50 minute selection of black plastic that covers the recent experimentations between dubstep/2step and funky house with people like James Blake, Joy Orbison, Four Tet, SBTRKT, Sepalcure and Hypno and more all represented. It’s definitely right up our alley here at Rhythm Inc towers, with many of these artists featured on the show and in rotation in our players.

If you like what you hear be sure to check his links for more and go out there and check his music if you like crunchy, banging beats. Here’s a preview of his latest EP for Error Broadcast:

We continue to roll out the guest mixes this month, with our latest offering coming from Touchy Subject. Now, while his name may not be one you’re familiar with yet it’s quite likely you’ll hear more from him in the coming year as some of his tracks are already being picked up and supported by the likes of Hudson Mohawke and Daedelus.

We hooked up with him after he sent some of the tracks for the show on myspace, and that’s when we decided to ask him to do a guest mix. He dully obliged and delivered with ‘Clever Headache’ a 45 mins ride that takes you through some of his own work alongside newer releases and some Rhythm Incursions favourites, spanning genres and tempo in a fairly effortless manner. Which also fits nicely with how we do things on Rhythm Inc normally, as regulars listeners no doubt know!

Not a man of many words, he described the mix as follows:

There’s some things you just can’t talk about. A variety of sound cheaper than a pound.

You can find out more about the man on his myspaces, here and here. And look out for some more exclusive tracks from him in my forthcoming regular podcast which will be going out before the end of the month.

For now though, strap up and crank the volume.
