Leftfield: Swords
Sunday, August 1st, 2010Subtle and sublime video for Leftfields Swords, one of the highlights from their 1999 LP ‘Rhythm and Stealth’…
It seems like a brave move allowing the audio to shift back and forth behind the dialogue in each scene but the result here is great.
After the huge success of their first album ‘Leftism’ I remember some of the material from this follow up LP being delivered alongside pretty dramatic visuals like the Afrika Shox video by Chris Cunningham and the Guiness advert featuring Phat Planet. I’m not sure this video achieved such a high profile but in my mind it’s the perfect delivery for the track… different people in different places, each getting down with their own vibe.
Now go find yourself a copy without the dialogue and turn it up loud for that break around the 3.30 mark.
Sepalcure: Love Pressure EP (Hotflush)
Monday, July 19th, 2010I posted a video here back in February featuring a track by these guys accompanied by time lapse footage of some lush organic pen styles from Sougwen, who featured in our recent multilink art book Capsule 01. The debut EP has now finally landed and is available in 12″ and digital formats via the good people at Hotflush Recordings…
Sepalcure – Love Pressure EP (Preview) by Hotflush
I was originally a little disappointed to find ‘Feeling That I Know So Well’ (the original track from the time lapse video) isn’t on this release. Not to worry though, being the gentlemen they are Praveen and Travis have teamed up with XLR8R and made it available as a free download to celebrate the new EP. Good work all round.
ARYZ
Monday, July 12th, 2010I just stumbled across some wicked tasty character designs from Barcelona based ARYZ.
This guy seems comfortable with his style across a range of different scales (some of the aerosol pieces are big!). Check out the clip below to see one of the smaller ones coming together…

Get Wise: Volume 1
Thursday, July 8th, 2010A 45 minute masterclass of heavy mid 90’s hip hop mixed by Kev Luckhurst. 41 tracks selected & recorded from the vaults of Andy Edwards, Simon See and Kev.
Originally released as 100 hand numbered promo’s back in 2008 (I’m not sure who sent me mine but thank you guys), this is well overdue finding it’s way online.
Grab it via the link below and keep your eyes peeled for part two later this year.
Blockhead x Anthony Francisco Schepperd
Sunday, July 4th, 2010An animated mind melt into a post human New York where TV and animals rule. All cast to the sincerely melodic soul of Blockhead’s ‘The Music Scene.’
