Made a song for IVDR
I have made a track called “Hollow” for friends’ label compilation: IVDR on VERYDEEPRECORDS Limited edition double tape. <3 Now I got a tape, even two tapes, and no tape player. Oh, these analog kids today, tsk. Good that today it’s released online too!

One artist’s good-bye to Soundcloud (and facebook)
I have deleted my facebook artist page and my soundcloud site for good today. Both contributed to make me feel my art as something valuable only by numbers, clicks, likes and forcing you to promote your stuff – all in all: it turns it into a bland quantifiable product. For me music is more about […]
ORCHID + brandnew mix
I plan on making monthly mixes this year. Here’s the first one of 2014, including queer tearjerkers and feminist fist-punchers, rather sophisticated synthpop, not srsly overweight bass / beats, a hint of vaporwave, dirty pre-gentrification techno and fluffy cloud house to help you forget about troubles and help you to dance the pain away … […]
TINKER mix for Electronic Beats + SEVEN DAVIS JR. ep
My last blog entry had 11.000+ characters so I’ll keep it extra-short in this one, just two music recommendations for the bass/hiphop/funkiness afficionada/os: TINKER (Berlin/San Francisco) has made a really great mix for EB, incl. tracks by Cashmere Cat, Flako, Flume, Souleance et al. [soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/125071116″ params=”color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /] I really hope we […]
Beastie Boys sue GoldieBlox
In a slightly glasshouse/stone-move sample-happy Beastie Boys sue the makers of a parody of their song ‘Girls’ that was made for girls-empowering toys by GoldieBlox, in a quickly gone viral video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFpe3Up9T_g Someone suggested on twitter last night that the reason could be that the Beasties do not want any of their songs in advertising. […]
Max Tundra, Lindsay Lowend
If a song comes to my mind these days I often am too lazy to go over to my record shelf but search for it online instead. When I listened to Lindsay Lowend’s ‘Wind Fish’ it’s effervescence and sound aesthetic reminded me of Max Tundra‘s ‘Labial’. Haven’t found it online but came across this longforgotten […]
Earl Sweatshirt lyrics
“Given the current climate of nixed rapper endorsements, it’s not hard to imagine a rhyme like that causing trouble for Earl down the line.” writes SPIN magazine in a bit on Earl Sweatshirt’s ‘Hive’ clip. So the only problem they see in these lyrics is that they could make Earl lose potential money from advertising? Meow. “Come around, we […]
