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.

Rhythm Incursions – January 2010

We return to the regular broadcasts with our first show of the year, and we are starting 2010 as we intend to continue with 2 hours of fresh new music and forthcoming releases alongside some recent favourites.

It seems 2010 is starting rather well, with a slew of new releases and announced albums for the first quarter of the year. With this in mind I decided to make the mini feature a look forward at what 2010 has in stock both from artists and labels I am personally looking forward to. So I selected 10 tracks for 2010 which I think highlight this nicely. In no particular order we’ve got Om Unit, Illum Sphere, Slugabed, Shlomo, Instra:mental, Dizz1, GOD and Loops Haunt, Teebs and Jackhigh, Letherette, Lorn and labels like All City Records, Svetlana Industries, FoF and Nod Navigators.

Though to be honest pretty much the whole show is a look forward to the new year and most of the artists are worthy of being ones to watch for 2010. Alongside this we’ve got new music from the likes of Mr Chop & CL Smooth, Ernest Gonzales, Bullion, Aquadrop, Jose James, Hyperdub, Lone, Robot Koch, Greymatter and more.

As usual you can download the show directly at the link below. If you want to make your life easier than make sure to subscribe and never miss a show. You can do so via email, RSS or our iTunes feed all of which are easily accessible with the fancy little icons on the right hand side.

So that’s it for this month, I’ll let you to sit back and crank up the stereo to 11. Look out for a series of guest mixes and live shows from Japan starting this weekend. And I’ll be back with another show next month with more of the same. Until then enjoy the music and if you like what you hear than be sure to go out there and support the music and artists.

Rhythm Incursions: November 08 part deux

I kinda messed things up and this podcast originally went out with the wrong file (the one from the October show). This has now been fixed and I have been fired. This will be my last post before I possible commit ritual suicide in order to atone for the gravity of my sins. Moral of the story is either never trust a Frenchman or don’t work when you’re tired. I go for the first one personally. Originaly text, links and tracklist below.

Seeing as how things are still messed up worldwide, we’ve got another round of fresh new music to help fight the gloom and doom. Think of it like an audio version of Obama’s win, or something to that effect… yes we can (play dope music for you). The end of the year also means an abundance of new music, with our collective Rhythm Incursions music box packed to the rafters as labels and artists push their latest for the end of year/post new year rush. Putting this month’s show together was therefore more difficult than usual, and there is still quite a bit of music I couldn’t showcase, so look out for more goodness next month as we not only wrap up the year but also continue showcasing all the good stuff that’s out, or on its way. Still, I managed to fit in quite a lot in the space of an hour, from the likes of Kanye, Common, Just Blaze, Kano and Evil Nine to Rhythm Incursions favourites Nosaj Thing, Exile and Maga Bo as well as Diplo, Madlib, Fulgeance, Blank Blue, DJ Design and more. Do we have your full attention yet? Good.
