Stratosfear – Mark Grist-Girls Who Read (Straosfear Remix)

Stratosfear has released quite a fun remix today, a nice drone-ish piano and highly textural instrumentation over top of spoken word.  Give it a listen. https://soundcloud.com/stratosfear-music/mark-grist-girls-who-read

9th song for the next Rekapper album has been complete

9th song for my next album I just finished up with, hoping to release that album quite soon, at least before the next hard drive I have fails.  On the other hand this is a more ambient jazz piece then the usual house oriented material, mostly due to the combination of using AAX 64bit plugins in Pro Tools 11 and simply not using Reason in the mix at all now.  It also helps that I have a snare drum that I have been working with as apparent from my last mix, posted below.  Other news about the album will be coming here soon, but expect a gradual release for the album in the sense that it will be on bandcamp paid album first then most digital distributors, then CD, then last probably a week later, a free mp3 96kbps (low quality) version of a few songs release.  Otherwise, the current grounds are working on fixing up some mixing projects I have on hand for other artists, a recording project with a snare drum, and a few mastering projects, so quite busy overall.

New Song from Uyama Hiroto – Waltz for Life ~song for children~

Uyama Hiroto released two new songs, the first called “Waltz for Life ~song for children~” being on bandcamp through Roph Recordings http://rophrecordings.bandcamp.com/track/waltz-for-life-song-for-children

The First track supposedly being the follow up to Waltz for Life Will Born

And the Second track/side being Vinyl only called “After the Dream” up on the Hydeout-Tribe site http://www.hydeout-tribe.net/store/products/detail.php?product_id=376

Roph Recordings seems to be the combination of Segawa Tatsuya (Deeptuber) who has been tied to hydeout before for various projects but really only has one song out and possibly a few DJ Mixtapes done for USEN

along with Uyama Hiroto and Koizumi Takumi (who did the house edit of Uyama Hiroto’s Homeward Journey (shown below)) (and also is known as HydeoutPro on twitter).

Haruka Nakamura: Melodica: New Song Uploads 9-9-2013

With the release of the new album Melodica, obviously uploads of youtube would occur from Bob or a few other guys, here are some examples.



Ultimately there is a bigger feel of the hiphop beats than there is the ambient textural beautiful mess that Haruka was creating before which has lead the album to be quite well receiving mixed reviews. It is apparent the influence of Hydeout Productions behind this album and even possibly Nujabes, Tribe, Substantial, Uyama Hiroto, and Pase Rock and as a result if you were wanting the less melodic and textural album focused around the rapping and production quality this one is for you, but as a whole the album doesn’t feel like any of the previous Haruka Nakamura albums such as Afterglow, Grace, 12&1 Song, or Twilight. But guessing based around this work I would expect that Haruka Nakamura’s next album would focus around the idea of more ambient light guitar work and texture, and possibly still have one or two more hiphop oriented tracks, but I could be wrong.

PS: Still waiting Uyama Hiroto’s next album, but from my understanding from his twitter from about a year ago, that he had lost one of his hard drives with some of the music he was working on, so who knows how far out that album is other then that sax player himself.
