painting pictures on silence - mixed by drox

Another request for a reupload. New mix up in the next couple of days.. peace!

In this episode we travel through some minimal dubbed out goodness from berlin via detroit and england for some lush electronic bliss. The captain has been given strict instructions for us to return back to base in the fourth quadrant. After a bumpy takeoff we are crusing with hyper drive on full throttle into the depths.

Some of these tracks are taken from some favorite netlabel releases such as the excellent Graceland EP by Norman Fairbanks and the Minor Fading Zero compilation out of Russia on the Leibniz netlabel.

Another great guest mix by J. Ben Leonard from flood watch music. His dissection of many a hip hop, funk and jazz record and general music blogging in the last little while (or at least since I found his blog anyway) has compelled me to invite him to compile this guest mix. Armed only with the theme beautiful technology this is his contribution…

At times I long for the absence of any traces of technology in music, a stark sound-world of unamplified acoustic guitars, pianos, wind instruments, drums.

Then I recall the incredible variety of textures that electronic sounds can produce, and when combined with natural, acoustic sounds, the sonic palette expands to infinity. This mix contains elements of my favorite flavors of technology, from the cumbersome the to the streamlined: awkwardly triggered samples, disembodied voices, analog synths, dense harmonic colors, the capturing of an intimate performance, an electric piano leading a crack jazz band. Hope you enjoy.
