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.

Despite it being nearly one week into November, we’re bringing you the October show which suffered the delaying combo of both my laptop dying and a rather nasty cold hitting me in the same week. The show was actually wrapped 2 weeks ago but we couldn’t get it out till now. Lucky you though, as you’ll be getting another show in a few weeks with our November edition.

I realised as I was putting the tracklist together that for some reason this month features a rather high number of freely available tracks. This is in part a reflection of my own listening habits (and the fact I spend way too much time on the internet) but also I think of the move by artists and labels to make more music available freely as a way to promote paying releases, gigs and other merchandise. Lastly I would also say that the increasing number of free tracks in our playlists this year is a reflection of the increase in quality in free music. Whereas before free tracks where often throwaway material, today an increasing number of artists are releasing bootlegs, remixes and their own tracks for free and keeping a high quality control on it. Again I think this is something that plays into the aforementioned ‘free music as promotion’ vehicle. All the artists with a freely available track in this month’s show also have physical, paying releases and quite a few are actually established artists in their own ‘scenes’.

What about the music though? This month we take in a rather wide range of music, reflecting the diversity of what’s been trickling into our inbox/hands. From the psychedelic meets Afghani traditional music of Ariana Delawari to straight beats (and some incredible flips) from KenLo, fLako, Fulgeance and Dibiase via tribal house vibes from Blue Daisy, 21st century boogie from Dam Funk, hard-hitting hip hop from Kids in Tracksuits and Mr Lif and forward-thinking productions from Om Unit, Mike Slott and Talen. And that’s only part of it, there’s more and it’s all high quality as far as I’m concerned.

This month’s mini-feature is a tie-in with the 5th anniversary of the Hyperdub label. Headed by Kode 9, Hyperdub has long been a favourite at Rhythm Inc, with Trick regularly playing the label’s early releases as both the show and label share roughly the same birthdays. To celebrate their anniversary Hyperdub have curated an incredible compilation, called ’5′, spanning two CDs or 5 12″s and featuring classic material from the label’s archive, unreleased one-offs and 15 or so brand new productions from the label’s artists and friends including names like Flying Lotus, Mala, Martin, Samiyam, Ikonika, Quarta330, and more. It’s fair to say that ’5′ is the final nail in the coffin for lesser labels, if it was even needed, that shows just how influential and forward thinking Hyperdub has been as an independent over the years. From its humble beginnings to its current wide palette of sounds, Hyperdub continues to do what everyone least expects, and that’s just one of many reasons why we love them and their music. For the feature we’ve got four tracks from the compilation taking in The Bug under his King Midas Sound alias, Mala, Kode 9 and Samiyam – music as different as it comes and yet somehow logically intertwined.

So enough with the words, sit back and crank the volume for 2h of the latest and freshest music. And stay tuned for some special shows coming up in the month. For now enjoy!

Namo returns to the Rhythm Inc airwaves with a little help from Dday One. With his first mix for us back in March this year proving rather popular, we’re grateful to Dday for bringing back this L.A resident to the show.

Chin Straps and Dirt Naps is a bit more in your face than the first mix if you will, feature a selection of the heavier, bottom-ended dubstep of recent years alongside some mellower joints. Hence the name.

Without much ado we’ll let the music do the speaking. And be sure to hit the man up on his myspace if you like what you hear and what to know more.
