Pedal Down, No Breaks

If We Must Take It, Fair Enough

Another from the Nidhogg soundtrack. It's nice when an opportunity provides an excuse to try on other styles, but I'm also smiling when I can find a way through the labyrinth including some of where I've been. Clouds, I believe does just that in harkening back to my previous albums a bit. 

This song and all the others from the OST come with the game when you purchase.

Get Nidhogg

Clouds

Last year I fell head over heels hard for the original, the band is Alpine from Australia, and although they don't have mountains enough to have an alpine forest it all makes sense in their sound. I was driven to paint broadly across their song's perfect veneer with my kind of crude coloring markers. Please enjoy.

Multiplication (Daedelus' the sum, the sun remix)

from the album Invention, later used to make Madvillian's Accordion. I just felt it like sharing it here today.

Experience

Sounds of Symmetry, Vol. 1

An Armada Approaches (Cruise from Here to the Afterlife Remix, conducted by the James Pants Sea Faring Orchestra)

Track 3 from Xenopocene featuring Vivek Menon. An album inspired by my time as artist-in-residence with S.E.T.I. (the search for extraterrestrial intelligence). Day 1 hints at what happens right after first contact!

Xenopocene

A Considered Reply - Day 1

The Breathing Effect (forthcoming Alphapup artists) bring their vision to Los Angeles' Beat Scene with their Jazz infused creations. This is their gorgeous cover of The Light Brigade's Baba Yaga.

Baba Yaga (Breathing Effect Cover)

Mono/Poly takes the elegiac Onward from my recent LP "The Light Brigade" and pulses, pushes, and pulls it forward. Find his "Golden Skies" also recently released on Brainfeeder.

Lotus Flower Bomb (Daedelus Pacific)

4th track from the EP "Visible", Gait is twisting turning pushy frequencies.

Gait

Abstract heavy? Colorful but not Color Bass.

Way Out!

Bandcamp

Therein Sound

From the Flywrench soundtrack. The prompt was uptempo breaks to underscore the twists and turns needed in game. I'm so honored to have assembled an incredible collection of artists that took on this challenge with aplomb. Included a link to iTunes, but you can find the music now through any digital service. Onwards and upwards!

Speeds

Such a fan of Floating Points' treatment of Milosh and my song, as remixed from 2011's Bespoke. I feel like it should be with you in these days, perhaps to sooth what harshes your mellows.

Tailor - Made (Floating Points Remix)

Special Re: Quest from the LP Labyrinths due October 28th on Magical Properties. Limited cassette available on Dome of Doom.

Bass by Goodnight Cody!

Labyrinths

Special Re: Quest

Aries featuring Teebs and Bass Sekolah's Darren Ashley from the LP Labyrinths due October 28th on Magical Properties. Limited cassette by Dome of Doom.

Righteous Fists of Harmony

Order of the Golden Dawn

Fair Weather Friends

Tidal Waves Uprising

Taken from All City's 10x10 Los Angeles producer focused series, the flip side of this release is an excellent assortment of Teebs music. This production is Sunday boogie thru beats if that makes any sense at all. So "Move, Rock; Baby, You Know The Deal".

You've Known

It was in 2002 that "Invention" was released. Although not being on itunes for a while now (a situation I plan to reverse this year), it is wonderful that on occasion I receive interest in hearing one or two of its songs live or in a mix somewhere. This Muggle Born from that same record, and the title is up to your own interpretation.

Muggle Born

Restless today. Wanting to kick up a notch and let loose.

This owed to two C's Cajmere and Current Value, who may have never been put together before. It's time.

Please enjoy the cantankerous.

It's Time for Long Addition (Single Spaced)

I'm not timely with this mix. It is long after the rap's been spit, yet how can you not try to wrestle with the words and see if they might be purposed to today? Speed and plosives here. Mid deranged kicks and distorted toms. Lots of little moments as I try to better my craft.

Fun fact. In high school I was in a jazz quartet called "Tres Gatos" (a name that never made sense) with Terrace Martin who kept playing incredible saxophone and features all over's Kendrick's albums. Hearing his output over the years has been an inspiration.

Alright (Daedelus' Werk)

A sort of chopped and screwed remix, which I'm calling an adjustment, of New Order's "Perfect Kiss". I'm putting up a series of these adjustments in honor of the kind 50,000 followers who have taken a moment on soundcloud to listen. Thank you!

Perfect Kiss (Daedelus' Adjustment)

Cobbled from recordings of raves circa '92 Wears House is both a mixtape and 14 revisionist originals. Capulet is filter-house through the looking glass of hoover subs and black lights. Please enjoy the moves.

Wears House

Capulet

From my latest Wears House. An ode to dance excess made from recordings of era. Mostly a 80 minute mixtape. 1988 was the year that Acid House hit Los Angeles; it stomps along like a little tantrum.

1988

First sound from my forthcoming Taut LP. This will be something like my 19th full length, and although I never felt out of breath, what a wonderful marathon its been. The song is more California quiet storm than gale force, but hopefully you feel it.

I'll be posting the stems for download soon and would love to hear your take on the song, or just pass along the the skittering drums for you to find use.

Cover by Debbie Cho

Taut

Pre-order

Raindrops

A mash-up of sorts of Dj Trouble's "Bangs and Works" and The Cardigans "Rise and Shine". Unholy and Wholly Fun. Unfinished, Unmastered, but immediate.

Rise and Bangs, Shine and Works

Purity Ring's "Shrines" is a sounding board of this passing Summer; perhaps more a Ouija board in fact. I've been listening with curious ears, and fell into a remix of Cartographist. I do hope you enjoy this terrible perversion of their lullingbyes into a more brooding and ominous clouding. Uping tempo.

Cartographist (Daedelus' Pacific Labyrinth)

Amazing what you'll find when the rabbit just bounding away, late for a very different party than you'd thought you'd ever attend.

Add this to my Pacific series of adjacent and nearby, always with a tempo.

Nobody (Daedelus' Pacific)

Inspired by the sounds coming from Chicago's Dance Mania records and similar uptempo house from the late 90s. Hot Music is actually a New York anthem, also counted as a seminal track for London's Jazz Step, and just dares to be stepped to. I hope you enjoy the theatrics involved, and maybe a 'work or two.

From a series of Pacific remixes taking sounds out of context.

Hot Music (Daedelus' Pacific)

A favorite from Daft Punk's recent "Random Access Memory" which I've chopped into tiny pieces and carefully glued back together along with macaroni, glitter, and footwork.

Doing It Right (Daedelus' Pacific Drift)
