Diss0nance - Wooly Rustle
Continue reading "Diss0nance - Wooly Rustle"
"mmmm...yes. more tasty treats for your sappy balloon head. philly's own rich henning (a.k.a. diss0nance) delivers his debut ep on unfoundsound. diss0nance gives you three mangled tracks that range from smooth and refreshing to quirky and ass-shaking. wooly rustle ep begins with a funky, stompy minimal house dancefloor gem entitled "wmd"-- fueled by choppy vocal snippets, shuffly percussion and warm synth stabs -- falling somewhere between detroit techno, cabanne and uk's dubsided label. this is followed by the title track, "wooly rustle" -- a quirky minimal funk-machine that scrapes, slurps and quivers through chopped-up found sounds, random voices, a tender early-morning rhodes piano and a slick bassline that makes you close your eyes and smile gratefully. on "bleep bloop," diss0nance ropes you in with a mesmerizing groove-bleeper through snippy percussion, faintly heady background textures and a monstrous, gurgling bassline -- a deliciously jackin' vibe that recalls (again) detroit techno, wighnomy brothers and butane. finally, the ep closes with a remix courtesy of unfoundsound's own, barem. this ultra-fun rework of "wmd" pulls you through a groovy, tracky microhouse joyride with a bouncy bassline, clicky percussion and pristinely calculated funk. all four tracks on wooly rustle ep are a minimal dj's wet dream. play and play and play and play!"

Monta - Disappointment
Continue reading "Monta - Disappointment"
"monta releases their debut album, unsuspecting, on their own montamusic imprint. and now unfoundsound offers a sweet follow-up to this melancholic, multi-genre release. foundsound co-founder, cyhl (a.k.a. fusiphorm) -- already a pal to the kansas city duo (and a vocoder-loving french guy) -- decided to take a stab at remixing one of the tracks on the album just for kicks. cyhl and friends were pleased with the end result, which prompted the idea for this remix ep on unfoundsound. the original version is a dark, ultra-melodic tune shaped for laid-back groovin'. butane and newcomer diss0nance each rework the track into quirky, minimal dancefloor killers. fusiphorm's remix bumps softly through pleasantly gloomy textures and shadowy reverbs. ezekiel honig re-sculpts the track into his own gentle, snippy, slow-tapping blanket of überbliss. and miguel tutera's version stays true to the original while maintaining a loopy, jazzy, near-ambient groove."
