The last week has been eaten up completely by the Hybridize/NRGetic Romancer mix I’m working on, but I’ve got a few really interesting things to post up in the next day or two…

The first big piece of news is two new tracks from Twisted Freq himself – and if that wasn’t enough they’re both downloadable here on TYFTH. Big thanks of course go to Twisted Freq, it’s great to hear what he’s been up to lately.

New Soul is a relatively low bpm vocal breakbeat track with elements of drum and bass, freeform and old skool (how’s that for genre-defying?). I really like this one, watch out especially for the nasty bassline. Vocals come courtesy of TF himself, and although I’m not always a big fan of lyrics in dark electronic tracks, these sit really well with the rest of the tune.

Next is Suicide Club, a more conventional freeform track with a particulary dark intro in proper Twisted Freq style. There are some nicely chosen Japanese samples, some warping tempo changes leading into/out of the breakdowns, and a nicely twisting lead as you’d expect.

By the way, the image at the top of the post is work by Finnish photographer Susanna Majuri – I went to an exhibition of Helsinki School artists this week when my ears couldn’t take any more mixing. Extremely cool stuff, and highly recommended if you’re in Tokyo now. This one’s titled Metsä, one of the few Finnish words I know, luckily.
