"The sound that kicks off this song, and the record, is the fluttering voice of Shara Worden combined with Chris Thile's tremolo mandolin. In order to create the vocal sound, I recorded Shara singing three short 'ah' sounds on every pitch in her range. I snipped them all up, and using a sampler, mapped them so that I could 'play' her voice from a keyboard. Then I used some fancy programming to make each 'ah' repeat as I hold down a key, or more specifically, to 'bounce' like a ball propelled by gravity... and then reverse itself. The result is that each 'ah' bounces rapidly and gradually smears into the next, creating the illusion of a held note, and then spreads out again. When 'playing' the voice this way, an extra-natural vocal articulation is achieved, but the sound of the instrument itself is entirely acoustic, and even human. This bit of technical geekery is a play on 'alternate world,' presenting the familiar in a strange new light." - Ryan Lott

Lyrics:
ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

OH OH, WE'LL SHED OUR SKIN
WE'LL WALK THE OTHER SIDE
OH OH, WE'LL BRACE FOR IT
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING
OH OH OH 
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING

OH OH, WE'RE MAGICAL
WE'LL WAKE THE DEAD FROM SLEEP
OH OH, WE'LL SHED OUR SKIN
WE'LL WALK THE OTHER SIDE
OH OH, WE'LL BRACE FOR IT
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING
OH OH OH

TEAR ME AWAY, FROM THIS FIGHT
TEAR ME AWAY, TAKE ME TO AN...
ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

MAKE WHAT WE BELIEVE
DON'T WE MAKE WHAT WE CAN

Finished this new art piece! To us Metaphysical isn't about the origin of the universe. It's about the reality we create in our own lives. When we peel back the layers, we're all just human inside.

in my loner hour
i turn to my
twin bed for power
like a swimming a pool even alone
it gets me wet and cool
simple as the crow flies
that all i want
is an apple inside of my gray skies
in my stoner hour
o how i float
just wondering about her
in my stoner hour like a swimming pool

Hide from me
I'm armed and dangerous
Ur skin is calling
From Secret Places

Lie to me
Don't say enough
Pretend ur weak, and 
I say too much

We only talk
It's not enough 
U try to run 
But I keep up
Ur gettin close
I feel ya warmin up
U never learn and 
I keep on showin up
We know better but
It's too late
She can't take on 
The new weight 
If truth kills then
We won't die
I know why

Got me open so wide
Take a look inside of me
A secret place
Ur secret place
We can both go
U know

Candle's burnin both sides
I guess it's how it's meant to be
A secret place
Ur secret place 
We can both go

No one needs to know
About our love
I just wanna feel ur bite
Lay by ur side
Pretend it's alright

Blending hip-hop, R&B, soul and melodic electronic sounds, Monte Booker highlights a percussion-heavy, sample-free sound that is unable to be imitated.

The 20-year-old producer who has been providing some of the finest instrumental backdrops for Chicago's music scene brings you the 16th installation of our White Label Series.

“While creating this White Label I was definitely influenced by lots of jazz – primarily because of how innovative it is, electronic sounds and Flying Lotus. In fact, Flying Lotus should just be a genre at this point lol.”

 Monte brings a couple of new artists along with him on this installation – Ravyn Lenae and Smino are “really close friends with amazing talent” – the trio goes by "zero fatigue” and have created a collective based out of the South Side of Chicago.

Stay tuned for more timeless sounds and good vibes from Monte Booker.

Boston Bun - Paris Groove feat. Mayer Hawthorne

Remix master The Reflex add some club colour to L’Impératrice’s dreamy disco hit. Showing at perfection his ‘less is more’ approach with imaginative arrangements, boxfresh sonics and intricate editing, The Reflex remix is rocket fuel for every DJ set.

We believe that « everything is a remix »

Remixes are a major part of the electronic music history. The club culture take off on remixes, some of the greatest dance hits where made from remixing original tracks.
Our primary purpose is to highlight this exercise by offering the opportunity to artists to either work on a remix of their choice or offer a track to be remixed by an artist they admire. It is overseen and curated by independent music lovers and supported by The Absolut Company, a brand that is permanently involved in the field of contemporary arts and creation with a tradition of supporting artists such as Keith Haring and Andy Warhol. The Absolut Remix project is dedicated to the art of combining or editing existing materials, to produce something new.

As a start, every last Friday of the month, we will unveil a new remix, from a newcomer or a legend, from disco to techno or IDM and house music. And more to come...
'Odyssée' was originally released on L'Impératrice's EP Odyssée in October 2014

IAMNOBODI - Gangster Boy (Taken off "Autumn In Jakarta")

Wooden Boy (Part 3) is the first single from The Cactus Channel's sophomore album "Wooden Boy" out Sept 2 on HopeStreet Recordings on vinyl LP/CD/digital.

It’s soul music, baby, but not as we know it. The backbeat and the handclaps are still there and the horns still sound. The bass bumps, the organ screams and the guitars still twang, but the singer has left the room. Everything is shades of blue. This is soul music for the after hours. For the solitary dancers and the lonely hearts. The soundtrack to solitary headlights on a midnight highway. What to call it? Who cares. Can you dance to it? Just try not to. No one’s telling you to throw your hands up in the air, but no one would be surprised if you did. It’s dark here, so you can do your own thing.

Wooden Boy was recorded by The Cactus Channel -- a ten piece band from Melbourne, Australia -- all born in the 90s and raised on the internet. Yet somehow, this astonishing follow up to last year's rave-reviewed debut, Haptics, sounds like it could have been recorded in the 1970s, or possibly in the distant future. A timeless, placeless cinematic oddysey, Wooden Boy could have been an alternate soundtrack to Ghost Dog -- if Lalo Schifrin and the Meters were collaborating on the RZA's score. Or maybe Wooden Boy was what happened when Lars Von Trier got invited to direct an episode of Soul Train. What any of it may actually mean is left to the listener's imaginantion.

Funk aficionados will hear shades of New York on this record, echoes of El Michel’s taking on Wu Tang, the influence of Budos and Menehan et al. But this is the Generation Z version; both more tempestuous and more introverted. Recorded analog in the digital era, presented faceless in the celebrity era, inexplicably ambiguous in the soundbite era, is this the album the world needs right now? Undoubtedly yes. In a world where the NSA can read the text message that dumped you, what does a person need more than sad soul music from the future? Wooden Boy, baby Wooden Boy.

"[Wooden Boy (Part 3)] starts with great conversational gusto between the horns and guitars, but over the next three minutes detours into surf twang, well-oiled rhythmic breaks, ominous soundtrack-style cues and finally a reprisal of the lingering drag that kicks off the song."
