Outta Limits Radio Show 17/6/2021

Outta Limits Radio Show With DAMO B.  Broadcast on Unity Radio 92.8 FM 17th June 2021.

The second release for Atomic Alert sees False Persona delivering his hard-hitting, explosive electro sound. Although a fresh face, the 21 year old Bournemouth-based producer has been self taught music production and DJing since the age of 13, and after spending years learning how to make different styles of music under a multitude of aliases, his sound as an artist definitely serves as a hybrid of genres.

On the title track Unknown Variable, he combines extra-terrestrial mutating synths and ghostlike pads with an insanely infectious bass line. Similarly, Hive Mind is a deep space club roller constantly buzzing its way through your mind.

The introduction of Brighter Days and By My Side is False Persona's own form of alchemy; reconstructing his usual element of club-ready electro with an expansive sonic landscape of subsonic pressure waves and euphoric pads layered with other-worldly vocal samples and magical glitchy percussion. A nuclear remix of Brighter Days cooked up by Dexorcist, one of the most prominent icons of electro and a dreamy rework of By My Side, Atomic Alert's Nite Fleit presses the button on this diverse weapon of an EP.

“Unknown Variable is a release that’s extremely special to me in so many ways. Not only is it my first proper EP, but for the longest time I’ve wanted to encapsulate my typical electroey sound alongside the more emotional, floaty side to my productions - some of which I’ve been sat on for months, even years, but hadn’t quite found the right moment for them until now.
I’m super excited to finally share these tracks with the world, along with stellar remixes from Dexorcist and Nite Fleit, two of my absolute favourite producers that I never imagined I’d one day be calling friends :)” - False Persona

“Comanche EP” is a journey with some dark, groovy and psychedelic vibes that reveal once again the “ethno-disco” side of Alberto Melloni.
The native chants and traditional instruments rely on a landscape of electronic music and disco grooves that through canyons and blazing deserts, give life to two original club tracks: “Comanche”, clearly focused on peak time, and “Cortical”, a slow motion and 90s flavored trance-ish banger.
The release is completed with two inspired remixes from Italian master Amarcord (Ombra International, Dust & Blood) and Turkish Fat&Bald (Belly Dance Services, Latido), both showing their eclectic and cosmic vision of dance music.

UVB76-022 : Basalt EP

A1. Basalt
A1. Different Ways
AA1. You Alright? Ft. Holsten
AA2. Drifter

Clarity returns to the fore with the stunning Basalt EP on UVB-76 Music. Four tracks split across two tempos, bound together with a signature clinical precision and prowess commonly associated with Clarity’s work. Title track ‘Basalt’ and ‘Different Ways’ lurk at a moody 130 bpm, while ‘You Alright’ (alongside label mate Holsten) and ‘Drifter’ are prime 170 bpm drum & bass fare.

Meetsysteem - Heel Even Niets (DYL Remix)

2022 rework of a early 2003 Monolake track. I just wanted to see if i can still open a Live set I made with Ableton Live 2 in Ableton Live 11. And then I spent the afternoon playing with it and decided to share the result. There you go! :-)

Neil McDonald's love of the outdoors is a constant feature in his music, hence his Lord Of The Isles (@lordoftheisles) moniker, a direct reference to the Highlands and islands of his native Scotland.

His vivid, effervescent and blissfully cinematic sound paints a soundtrack to unmade films, building imaginary worlds inspired by his childhood passion for science fiction. It is therefore no coincidence that the closing track 'Subtle Thoughts' samples the inimitable voice of Carl Sagan and is also the name of his forthcoming album on Lapsus Records.

Subtle Thoughts' is an album of sumptuous melancholic electronica that, like all his previous works, avoids being pigeonholed. In it we find ambient and IDM, but also breaks and down-tempo 4x4 beats with deep ruminations, and even passages akin to new age and Balearic. In Neil's own words, the real concept behind 'Subtle Thoughts' is "The spaces in between. Listening to the quiet voices. Freedom of expression and being open. It also contains my hopes and fears for the future of our world, but mainly hope and love".

Lord Of The Isles - In Waves (ESP Institute) 
Release Date 11/11/2016

Lord Of The Isles 'In Waves' (ESP Institute)

We almost missed this one. So to ensure ‘In Waves’ made waves in the pages of Mixmag, we went back to it – and boy will you be glad you did, too. Lord Of The Isles, aka producer and graphic designer Neil McDonald, has been writing and producing for almost a decade, the enigmatic releases finding homes on key electronic imprints like Permanent Vacation, Phonica and Mule Music. His debut album, released via LA label ESP Institute, is fresh and spectacular. McDonald says an early fascination with Scottish history inspired his moniker, as well as being dragged around the Highlands by his parents as a young child. Those trips clearly made an impact on him, because ‘In Waves’ is laced with beautiful chord progressions and colours as bright as tartan. He seems to be as in touch with nature as he is with percussion and quirky melodies, as demonstrated by the sound of waves washing over pianos on the title track. Its 15 tracks are the epitome of otherworldly electronic sophistication and yes, for the most part they’re as Balearic as a classic DJ Harvey disco re-edit. Certain tracks stick out: the glitchy Balearic bounce of ‘Liobasta’ is an early highlight, as is the smooth cinematic touch of ‘Obar Lìobhaite’. The Âme/Dixon-ish bleep masterclass ‘Weh-In’ doesn’t put a foot wrong over eight scorched minutes, either, while the subtly breathtaking ‘Yanomami’ isn’t far behind. You can catch Lord Of The Isles at Primavera next summer; don’t miss the boat. Ralph Moore
