Phutureprimitive is the moniker of Bay Area producer and songwriter Rain. Early childhood photos reveal Rain sitting at the piano plinking keys, grinning from ear to ear… a true sign of things to come. Continuing his early fascination, Rain was later drawn to electronic music, inspired by its ability to combine the best of organically played instruments and the synthetic pleasures of sounds more exotic to the human ear. After beginning a DJ career in the 90s, Rain began incorporating the music he was making in his home studio into his DJ sets. That was all it took to trigger a full blown love affair with electronic music and the process of its creation... and Phutureprimitive was born.

Phutureprimitive's music is best described as dripping wet love drops of nasty mind melting sonic bliss. Lush melodies drift across intricate rhythms, groove heavy beats and warm, fuzzy bass lines. Often exploring a dark and dense palette, there is also a profound sense of tranquility and beauty, engaging the listener into hypnotic movement and often escalating into a full-on kinetic experience. Shimmering with cinematic qualities, his music ultimately speaks to the body, mind and soul.

Despite electronic music's tendency to suffer a short shelf life, Phutureprimitive has already demonstrated a timeless quality with his debut album "Sub Conscious" on Waveform Records, which remains the top seller on the label since its release in 2004, obtaining a cult status among fans and collectors. With a string of singles released in the interim on various labels, the birth of Native Harmonix (Rain’s own Record Label) brought us the “Luminous” EP in 2010; delving into a lyrical based production, supported by undulating synth work and a palpable haunting texture throughout. His second full-length release “Kinetik” forged new territories of emotional electronic dance music, exploring a heavier, bass-centric sound that adds raw energy to intricately detailed tracks. "Kinetik" remains on the iTunes Top 100 Electronic Music Chart, 3 years after its release.

With a new collection of songs released in 2 parts titled “Searching for Beauty in the Darkest Places,” he takes ideas from his previous releases and supercharges them with hard-hitting dancefloor appeal, while maintaining the depth and prowess this trusted producer is so well known for. His first national headlining tour in Fall 2013 debuted his collaboration with ritual dancer Caeli La. The tour launched with the release of their first official music video, "Lucid Dream," a collaboration with multi-media production team Vinton Depiction & Michael Miller, the animation/visual effects creator behind NBC's "Grimm." The Dance Out Your Demons Tour featured an interactive game, in which the audience members write down a "demon," fear, or something they are letting go of on a piece of duct tape, stick it to the bottom of their shoe, and then "dance out their demons." Due to the success of DOYD, Phutureprimitive announced that they will continue to incorporate the game on future tours.

Everyone knows that with the advent of social networking, a lot of artists have been in contact with the world to broadcast their art. Today only a computer, a guitar and a social network, you can let you know in less than a month. This has its drawbacks, since that overflow and massive attack of new talent has made ​​us more careful when engaging in any group. However, this does not mean there is no future for these emerging artists, which on the one hand it opens, on the other they were closed. Still, not everything depends on oneself, and this website in addition to providing updates to the current scene is also a platform to support the bands, especially national, and this is the case of recommendation today: Ultimate Breath .Ultimate Breath has been active as such a little over a year, though its creator takes on the music world a few years. Manuel Fernandez is the guitarist and composer of Ultimate Breath , not only that, but also bass, keyboards and drums. The music was composed by him, every effect and every note. Other examples of such groups are Chimp Spanner , Putrid Pile , Absent Distance or Animals As Leaders in the beginning. The group is from Jerez de la Fra. (Cádiz) and just one listen and you get hooked on their subjects, they contain both musical quality and sound.
The songs are perfectly constructed and their riffs are condundentes, without any repeated, as might be expected from a group of djent. Each song is different from the other and are easy to distinguish, sometimes also added a bridge or a clean environment that makes the issues were impressive. Their breakdowns are very far-fetched in both speed and time, so we will not meet the typical breakdown of deathcore. Another feature to highlight in this group, is the style that plays in relation to their origin, since there are few national groups to cultivate this style.
The only drawback is its lack of solos as guitar solos contain only a couple of issues. But it shows in every single technique and level of guitarist leaves no one indifferent.
The group currently has about 6 or 7 instrumentals, but the composition of songs is continuous, so you can always enjoy new features and new themes. Also, soon you can listen to voice issues also included.

Newest addition to the mix, getting cleaner and better as I go along.  Hope you enjoy!
