Solid Steel (19th December) Coldcut return with a special 2 hour mix to end another great year on Solid Steel and a late contender for Mix of the Year. Matt Black steps up with a suitably broad selection starting with a laid back opening from Tokimonsta, Thundercat, Slugabed and The Free Design. Proceedings pick up with Cid Rim, Instra:mental and classic Smith & Mighty. Recent guests Distal and Peverelist both feature, alongside Untold, The Bug and Oneohtrix Point Never. Then we go deep with Miles Davis, David Axelrod and even Beethoven, before closing the show with Mr Fingers, Four Tet and Basic Channel.

Solid Steel (3rd April) There's a definite Mercury Prize feel to this week, with both guests up for the title last year. 

In Hour 1 it's Young Fathers bombing the airwaves to celebrate the release of their new album 'White Men Are Black Men Too' which is out on 6th April on Big Dada. What can we expect in their mix? We'll leave it to them to explain;

"Barefoot on the concrete. That’s the world experience now.

That’s what this mix sounds like.
Highlights are…  Ghost Writerz - one of them tunes that pop up and you hope that there will be more with the same kind of inventiveness, that the next one won’t just go to straight up Grime or whatever.
Pink Floyd - cos our manager thinks we sound like them, sometimes.
Timbaland - still unbeaten when it comes to beats.
Soko - French singer, really honest on this, great lyrics.
Techniques, singing on the corner in Kingston Town, melting teenage hearts in the houses around, while dogs bark and Remingtons crack.  Love conquers.
Our brother, Callum Easter, climbing the hill against the wind - this is not available anywhere else.  be thankful."

Time to start Friday morning with a slice of abstract tranquility from Montreal based Stefan Jós who releases his debut album 'Primitives' on flau and raum shortly. Spacious, bugged-out electronics give way to sober crispiness. "The moody rhythms, wood and metal, weird noises in wet caves and other goodies for ground-dwellers and mole people alike."

Stefan Jós is Devon Hansen, a musician and video artist born and raised in Southern California.

Primitives is released next week on flau and raum. More info here

VLEK12, By Laurent Fintoni.

Following the adage that good things come to those who wait, Brussels’ Squeaky Lobster returns to Vlek after nearly two years of silence with a new EP: Killing Eleven.

Having wooed crowds across Europe with his twisted hip hop grooves over the past couple of years, he kicks off 2013 with a half hour of rich and intricate music, a heady blend of saturated samples, rhythms and melodies designed to draw you in for an immersive listen. This immersion takes full sense on the vinyl release which, like 2011’s Will-O-The-Wisp EP, is designed to be listened as if it were a mixtape of old, the EP’s eight tracks spread across two sides of uninterrupted music that once started must be felt through all the way. You strap yourself in and you ride, or else…

Side A sets the tone with a 17-minute ride into the musical mind of Squeaky Lobster from epic strings on the opener to slow, chugging grooves that should come with a neck brace warning, intricate break chops, flying edits, screaming horns, ethereal voices and perfectly chosen samples that guide you on this journey and add the perfect touch to the music’s cinematic feel. 

Over on side B things take a turn for the psychedelic as the grooves stay firmly off the beaten track yet continue to have an irresistible pulling effect on your head and body. Screeching guitars, ethereal melodies and an invitation to rock n’ roll co-exist happily in the mind of Squeaky Lobster and translate here into yet more forward thinking grooves, rhythms and melodies that join the dots between hip hop’s past, present and future. 

The tracklist is merely there as an indicator, a signpost that can be safely ignored in favour of a wild sonic experience. Unlike other artists in the same realm, Squeaky Lobster may not talk much but he sure knows how to let the music speak for itself. After a few listens you may find yourself thinking that Killing Eleven is a direct descendant of the work that people like Prefuse 73 and Shadow started close to 20 years ago. And you wouldn’t be half wrong.           

As for those of you wondering what Killing Eleven is – a mysterious killer, a rite of passage or perhaps a reference to Spinal Tap’s ‘turn it to eleven’ – you’ll have find the answer in your own listening experience. Inhale deep and loose yourself. 

Killing Eleven is released by Vlek Data in January 2013 on 12” vinyl featuring screen-printed sleeves with artwork by Vlek’s Dim Run alongside digital.
