bit_rock alumnae :: electronic collective

bit_rock alumnae :: electronic collective

While plumbing the depths of archive.org's netlabel scene I found something that hits close to home. Very close to home. "live at CMFU - nybbl meets kawula [hc105]". Indeed this is a live recording from the very heart of Squares Cubed country released via hippocamp. Following the trail of breadcrumbs further lead me to bit_rock alumnae:

"The bit_rock alumnae is an informal collective of electronic music producers based in and around Toronto. We decided to get together during the winter of 2004 for the purposes of supporting each other, strengthening the local independent electronic scene, and trying to stay warm. All of us recognized the difficulties in finding an accepting audience for our music outside the rock and dance club scene, so we decided to join forces to make things happen."

Check out some tracks from the bit_rock alumnae sampler #1:

Mystechs :: Omega Point Records

Mystechs :: Omega Point Records

Their official bio compares Mystechs to Zappa, Ween and Outkast which should give you some indication of were their release is coming from. At first listening I wasn't exactly sure how I felt about the music. I didn't like or dislike it. Only after a few more listens was I able to appreciate Mystechs deadly style of musical kung-fu. I could try to explain the sound but its much easier to just link to the tracks themselves.

DISCO HAMMER :: MP3
THE SOUTH DAKOTA GLUEBAG CONNECTION :: MP3
ROCK AND ROLL KILLED THE ESKIMOS :: MP3

Grab some more mp3s from other Mystechs releases on the Info and Fun page!
