departures
forward by Jason Timothy

Departures is such an appropriate title for this EP, as not only is this a departure from what many have come to expect from André but also these songs really take you on a journey that is a departure from your daily concerns. 

When I was asked to do a painting for the cover, I wanted to capture the idea that the song has always been playing & always will be playing, and we just happen to be catching a small sliver of it. I hope when viewing the art that it takes you closer to the music, not further away.

The songs are a mix of sonic bliss & melancholy, with very memorable melodies. 

Don’t be surprised if “Departures” brings you right back to your center.

Robert Babicz has been redefining the boundaries of electronic music since the early 1990s. His unique artistry encompasses sound, vision, emotion and spirituality. From releasing and performing acid techno as Rob Acid, to his role as a highly-sought after producer and studio wizard infusing technical perfection with deep emotion, to his striking photos, everything Robert does expresses his desire to celebrate beauty and humanity, and to live each moment with utmost consciousness. Robert's art and philosophy are so distinctive there's a word for it: Babiczstyle.

Leading out of Lane 8 on the Sunday night, main stage, at Rabbits Eat Lettuce, was one of our most prized discovery's, Doppel. Playing an all original live set kicking off the Bassic Records session, Doppel dove down with us into the monster Shipwreck, his music evolving in a beautiful syncopation with the expanding energy of the crowd. Seamless evolution through sound, is a true journey in which a listener must surrender themselves to the uncontrollable urge to dance. 

Doppel's set at Rabbits Eat Lettuce 2017 features; Bassic Records releases, including his Misty Moon remix as the opener; hints of his upcoming EP; his hit "Melt" released by Open Records and unreleased material for some amazing labels that continue to expand the endless horizon of Doppel.

Welcome to the 10th Volume of Breakfast & Beats! This month we have a special 2 hour mix from Greasy Monk!

I was first introduced to GM when I did a guest mix for Rocky Mountain Resonance (RomoRes) and from there have been hooked on his musical taste, fantastic approach to music, and pushing the boundaries of showcasing talent on RomoRes.

Please enjoy this AMAZING journey put together by Greasy Monk.

The Breakfast of choice for GM is: Hash Browns, Chorizo, and a poached (although I made over easy egg in the photo) and I topped it off with some sliced red bell peppers and a cup of coffee.

Please follow @thegreasymonk to keep up with his tunes and shows!
