Doctor Zygote - DXM Dub

Dr Z caught a bug for dubbing techniques working on his Black Acre album "Grupo Zygote". He started messing around with beats he’d made and creating dub versions of them. This is the first example. Smack Dub is engineered to knock you out.

Doctor Zygote - Smack Dub

The Maghreban sits hunched over arcane hardware amid piles of records, his cranium haunted with the echoes of Satin Storm and 10 kilowatt suburban microdot nightmares. Ears not troubled by current fads, The Maghreban’s style has developed in neurotic isolation. 

Menacing yet accessible, informed by early 90s hardcore, film soundtracks and XTC records, these 2 tracks are but an opening salvo in a slew of planned 2014 releases. Stay tuned. 

The Maghreban - Horse (Snippet)

The Maghreban pares down 'Casio' from his first 12" into some basic constituents and builds it into a slightly different animal, again ending up somewhere in the woodlands of Kent on a summer Saturday night 23 years ago, somewhat crestfallen. 

The Maghreban - Casio Remix (Snippet)

The Maghreban takes a sojourn through 70s Africa, ending up confused in a 1990s Home Counties rave on this sophomore release. Tribal psychedelia abounds, colonial Afro Rock space echoes ensue, giving way to a quirky stomper. 

The Maghreban - Afric (Snippet)

Release Date: 14/07/14

The Maghreban returns after the success of the Afric 12" to take a little trip through space with two Star Trek inspired cuts. 

Amok Time is an ode to the brutal Vulcan mating ritual and is punctuated by a large laser and heavy 90s progressive House sonics. The Empath is more mournful and melodic than previous excursions, perhaps even world weary.

PREORDER: bit.do/MT70
Limited (150) vinyl pressing, releases 23 Feb.
A fan of limitations, The Maghreban took multi samples from his Casio MT-70 keyboard and used only them to make this EP whilst on holiday in North Wales last year. 
Most of the tracks were made whilst staying at Portmeirion, the strange resort where "The Prisoner" was filmed in the late 60s. The Maghreban is a fan.

The Maghreban - MT70 EP Snippets

The Maghreban has been making some noise with his latest release on Versatile 'Wonder Woman'. Rather than continuing along that Disco-ish path, he changes tack as he returns to Zoot with 3 tunes influenced by (but not identical to) different times from his teens.

'Now Easy' is informed by those c. '93 dark jungle 12s he knew and loved. The Dark Stranger. Don Bad Man. Presha III. The Capsule EP. The video is a tribute to those and other records. 'Not Good' is an innocent mess about with a Korg M1. 'Hi Top' is reminiscent of Kid 'n Play formation dancing. Outlaw Posse. Caveman.

Release Date: 21 September 2015
