Check the mix here . Tracklist : King Midas Sound - Sometimes (Waiting...

Yeah it’s a bit incessant but there are so few releases right now that really excite me I’m going to roll with this for a bit! The Hyperdub bash at the weekend was awesome, lots of nice people, lots of chat and catching up. Bit too rammed, great soundsystem. King Midas Sound came on around midnight and [...]

If it is possible to be ambitiously impatient, Kevin Martin would exemplify it perfectly. His ambition and impatience often clash for the listeners’ enjoyment, producing a variety of projects that all encompass his ingenuity without being restrained by observational cohesiveness. In addition to his ambition and impatience, Martin has always resembled a perfectionist of sorts [...]

Hyperdub at Corsica Studios

History is made at night (Free subscription) | 11/23/2009

The Hyperdub night at Corsica Studios (Elephant & Castle) was excellent on Saturday, with two awesome live appearances. Kode 9 and Spaceape were intense, but due to moving around, saying hello to folks and then being squeezed to the back, I only caught the latter half of the set. I was luckier for King Midas Sound - squeezed at the front instead - and they were outstanding on their...

The mix features choice selections from Burial, Lovejoys, Little Dragon, Gregory Isaacs, My Bloody Valentine, and more, including a few from KMS' own full-length Waiting For...
