Heyoka comes at us again this week with another full length album on Muti Music! This time around, Mandelbass explores the roots of Heyoka’s musical interest with quirky influences from jazz, funk and old garage rock. A bass-scaping journey of whompy audio fractals, Heyoka proves once again that he is a wizard of psychedelic sound. Check out his album mix below, grab the release from Addictech, and make sure to catch Heyoka when it comes to a town near you on his Spring Tour.

BONUS: The kind folks at Muti Music have decided to give away a tune off of the album for your downloading pleasure!

What we have here for our second mixtape is a juicy mixtape that is 1/3 purple crunk lovestep, 1/3 glitch hop, and 1/3 dubstep by our own Psymbionic. What starts off slow and sexy soon drops you into a heavy boomer of a mix that will make you swoon and/or grab your nuts. John has been honing his style and styling his sounds since coming onboard and has definitely dialed in a good one so far. The mix has a lot of primo stuff from a lot of upcoming producers, so check this one out.

Look out for upcoming remixes by Psymbionic for Ben Samples (Daly City Records) and Mindelixer (Abstract Logic Recordings). Tour dates can be found at http://psymbionicmusic.com.

Good god! 2010 is the year of Muti Music, wouldn’t ya say? The glitchdubcrunkhopstutterwhompchillstep label out of San Francisco, CA has been blowin’ it up haaard this year already. With only the first half of the year down, we’ve seen a lot of great stuff and I’m sure we’ve got some great stuff to look forward to! Here’s some of the great releases and artists that have caught our eye recently..

From the first that Cosmic Boogie wisped by our ear canals, we knew it was going to be a treat. When Heyoka released Marklar some months back, it signaled that Heyoka was taking his music in a new direction, exploring more hyphy and double speed variations on his signature psychedelic sound. However, some felt that it didn’t match the par that earlier releases had set when it came to depth and dynamics. But fear not! Cosmic Boogie very well could take the cake as your new favorite Heyoka album. Find Cosmic Boogie on Addictech, then download the Cosmic Boogie promo mix below!

We’ve been highly anticipating this release for a number of months, and there’s no disappointment here! Siren’s take on gangster-purple-hop-whomp-step comes highly recommended. With the just the right amount of psychedelic juiciness, this EP keeps your body moving while still tantalizing your brain with complex edits and glitchiness built right in. We first got our dose of Siren almost a year ago with the “Spawn” EP, which screamed it’s way into our speakers with huge drums and crushed basslines. In the past year, Siren has refined and altered his sound, which should definitely be considered an evolution. This was one of the few releases this year that filled our iPod’s on repeat for hours and hour.. can’t recommend it enough! Cop it on Addictech, then snag Siren’s remix of Zion I’s Juicy below from the Soundcloud player.

Really glad to see these guys on Muti! Glitchy and Scratchy, also known as Bevvy Swift + The (“El”?) Mongoose, is a glitch-hop super duo hailing from BC, Canada. They first came onto our radar with the compilation of hip-hop bootlegs called “Robots Sodomizing Famous Rappers” some time ago. Since then, they’ve made a name for themselves with multiple releases, including some on the Canadian glitch hop label Woofer Cookers. The Broken Logic EP takes us on a journey through fuzzy basslines, crushed drums, and industrial synths reminiscent of the hay-days of dark trip hop. Grab Broken Logic on Addictech, and score this hilarious track by Glitchy and Scratchy called “Midgets”.

Glitchy and Scratchy – Midgets

Adam John, also known as Kid Kryptic, has been in the scene for going on 10 years. Throughout his career, he has established a great name for himself with releases on labels such as Evol Intent Recordings and Shift, as well as starting one of Arizona’s first DnB labels, known as Theoretic Records. His most recent release was also his first on Muti, showing a quite diverse side of Adam in the way of downtempo, bass heavy glitchy goodness. This EP has almost a magical feel to it.. something about the combination of dreamy synths with fat bass alongside choppy vocals and tiny percussion produces a vibrant soundscape in which to get lost in. Peep it on Addictech, and then make sure to pon the downloads of his remix of Luddy vs. Nate Doog’s “Play No Games” as well as his most recent mixtape, Laser Beam Force Field.

Make sure to scope out Muti’s Addictech store at http://mutimusic.addictech.com/, and keep your eyes peeled for Timonkey’s new release, entitled Future Perfect, which should be out toward the end of this month. Other notable releases worth checking out are: Masia One – In Di Streets, Mad Zach & R2 The Specialist – Wolf Spiders, Domain ID – Boombox Apocalypse, and Shen – Lost Hopes. But, we can’t speak for your taste! Dig deep with these guys, as they have a few years of worthy releases that still rock dancefloors to date.. trailing all the way back to the Clipping Paths compilation, featuring the talents of Kraddy, Vibesquad, Kilowatts, Ooah, Dov, Timonkey and a whole slew of others. Can’t wait what else Muti Music has in store for us this year!

Hey Bwompers! I just finished up a mixtape while on the road, somewhat irrelevantly entitled “The Fozzie Bear Crunkadelic Mixtape”. It’s 37 minutes, precisely crammed with plenty of tripstep tunes for all the boys and girls! I figured I would post it up for all you Bwompheads out there! Enjoy :)

No, I’m not talking about the aliens from South Park.. I’m talking about the new Heyoka album! Just released this morning from Muti Music, Marklar shows us a new side of Heyoka, one that I personally have been waiting for a long time to fully manifest. What is this new side of Heyoka, you ask? The fusion drum ‘n bass! Don’t worry though, Heyoka goes all over the map with this 18 track banger. Plenty of juicy love to be had all around, no matter what your taste of dub is.

Heyoka was nice enough to give us a promo mix for this brand new hotness!
