Danny Baranowsky – C.H.A.D.’s Broken Wind

Leave a comment

Let’s go for some addictive electronic grooves, singed along the edges by the flames of a passing guitar. Combining sounds that remind us of the games of the past, this catchy song comes straight from the soundtrack of Super Meat Boy^. Be careful, it may be more addictive than the game!

You can listen to the song for free, in good quality, on BandCamp, which is one of the best websites when it comes to supporting artists. You can also purchase the song (or album) from this same location. And in case you’re wondering, yes, I did purchase Danny Baranowsky’s album :).

MIKTEK – Ominous Ride

Leave a comment

Addictive through its tranquility, MIKTEK’s art shines despite its unassuming, subdued tonalities. Yet, even as the solemn bass leaves no doubts about it, the listener will feel a great force in play here. This is the second song from MIKTEK’s “Elsewhere” album that I’m featuring here, and it may not be the last.

Infected Mushroom – Pink Froid

Leave a comment

Sit back and enjoy the brain massage. From the very first listen, this masterpiece blew my mind and tears welled up in my eyes. If Infected Mushroom and Pink Floyd would have ever collaborated, this is how the result would have sounded. Perhaps my amazement was even greater because I am very familiar with the art of the two bands. This sounds like a genuine Pink Floyd song, with a few pretty mushrooms grown on it. Indeed, these wonderful Israelis successfully infected Pink Floyd with their trippy DNA.

Even the lyrics are perfect. There are just a few words to be heard, but these are important, meaningful words. I’m referring in particular to the notion that “you are me”. There is a deep existential truth buried in this statement, at least as far as certain life philosophies are concerned.

This song has a lot to offer, whatever your taste in music might be. It’s one of those rare gems for which I can truly recommend you to relax, close your eyes and allow yourself to be transported to another place.

Tzolk’in – Meztli

Leave a comment

It starts slow, creeping its way through echoes and dark soundscapes. Two minutes later, the percussion kicks in and you’re on your way to what Tzolk’in wants to be a journey into the ancient Mayan culture, reinterpreted by the contemporary electronic music style. Tzolk’in is a type of calendar used by the long-gone Mayan civilization.

This is a seriously introspective song, but not one that is easy to digest. Dark undertones are joined by a subdued but relentless thrashing. In my book, it’s one of the best finds of 2015.

You can listen to the song for free, in good quality, on BandCamp, which is one of the best websites when it comes to supporting artists. You can also purchase the song (or album) from this same location. And in case you’re wondering, yes, I did purchase Tzolk’in’s album :).
