FlyLo - Cosmogramma
To think that this is still the young producer from Los Angeles that got his start by crafting juicy, booming dubstep cuts for Cartoon Network to use in whichever way they deemed best (those commercials continue to impress and affect with every new idea), seems like such a wonderful pay off on what life has to offer. As Flying Lotus – or FlyLo as Steven Ellison has soon to come to be affectionately referred as by devoted fans – he’s methodically and extremely well-fashioned, winning many dashing impressions. His Warp debut, Los Angeles, was the best electronic album of 2008, his sought after skills as a producer have found him winning situations like being a part of the tree-headed producing team on Gonjasufi’s melting pot of styles, A Sufi and A Killer, and he has now, completely and utterly, broken down all those impressions to render an album that is overflowing with exceptional music.
For his part, our interstellar conductor deals out weightless reveries, whirling dissonance, head-nodding groove, and four-on-the-floor thump all while adhering to jazz’s singular energy and spirit. But Cosmogramma is not simply beat music for the Sun Ra set. Flying Lotus reaches into the past in order to create something clearly of the future – a hybridized work that challenges others to follow its dazzling blueprint.
That’s the magic of what an album like Cosmogramma is all about. Initial copies of his album were sent to the media with one single track of forty-five minutes of music. At first I was a bit confused and ensured I had downloaded everything correctly but in such anticipation, I turned it on right away. The concept of an album that is one, extended, theme of ideas that all come together in an impeccable flow of perfectness is arduous, to say the least. However, Ellison has created an album that is definitely positioned and performed in such a manner that his music is not something we should take for granted. Flying Lotus has made the strongest album to date with his amazing collection of sounds, beats and instruments; as good as you felt after hearing the sheer brilliance of Los Angeles – as good as that impression was – by the time “rips//Auntie’s Harp” comes around and amazes you, Cosmogramma has latched on and will never let go.

RxRy
RxRy is--I don't know. Much to my chagrin, I've spent a significant amount of time trying to find a hint of evidence as to who RxRy is. All I know is that this project is fairly new, judging by the fact that this and Snw Mltr are the only two albums I've seen released. Rxry encompasses the ambient dubstep genre artfully but is hard to pin down to one distinct genre of music. But let's put an end to this musical scavenger hunt and talk about the music itself.
This album keeps a consistent atmosphere of peace and tranquility, and I'm trying my hardest not to sound like a hipster with a joint in one hand and a copy of Person Pitch in the other. I have to admit though, this will probably be known as the most blissful album of 2010. The album begins with soft soundscapes on the opening track "Baulkin Slihts" which becomes increasingly layered, yet still maintaining a light density. A pulsing beat fades in, as if it's emerging out of the cloud of keyboards, and builds into a more obvious dance rhythm. However, this is definitely not an original kind of sound. This has been done before. Two obvious comparisons I can make are to Tim Hecker and Growing, which I'm sure anyone would agree with when hearing this. That's not to say this doesn't add to the ambient genre though, and that it doesn't perfect what other artists have done. One thing I can point out that RxRy does differently than others is the recording technique. Instead of having a live sound, it sounds very upfront, and I wouldn't be surprised if this was just composed and recorded on a laptop, although the echo and reverb still achieve that live, resonating tone that is key in this type of music..
RxRy's debut certainly impressed me; not to that degree of where it would "change the way" I listen to music, but it left me with anxiety for what else RxRy and 2010 have to offer in the future. I highly recommend this album, especially if you have a proficient speaker system to accompany it. I wouldn't be surprised if RxRy blew up sometime this year.

You know, if I had a choice, skip the major labels and just put it out yourself man... Trust me. I tell everybody it's better to do it yourself and let the Indies come after you instead of going in their direction and getting a deal and you have to wait, it ain't fun, take it from me. Right now, I'm on MCA but it feels like I'm an unsigned artist still. It's cool, it's a blessing, but damn I'm like, 'When's my shit gonna come out? I'm ready now, what's up?'

DMT
For so many reasons, this seemed like the answer to why I've ever wanted to do psychedelics in the first place, minus the alien rape.
Some of my friends had done it, and I was surprised by how many people were talking about, and trying this ''Natural Psychedelic made in our brain'' that could possibly be the gateway to spirit travel. And let me tell you from experience, the universe REALLY does give you what you put out into it...
DMT isn't a joke, its not a party drug, and it should be respected. As much as I feel that everyone should experience this, It really ISN'T for everyone and I ONLY recommend it for those who are seeking a spiritual experience. DMT will destroy your ego, and this reality as you know it. As amazing and profound and brief as it was, there are SOME people that should NEVER EVER have this experience. You know who you are, Please travel responsibly.

Friend of mine left this CD in my car and after listening to them once I went back and re-listened a few times and they're currently one of my top post-hardcore/mathcore bands, ever. Listen to the tunes and it's like meeting a Rottweiler dressed up as a cuddly puppy.
Meet Me In St. Louis are a pure revelation. Angular, stark and technically beautiful, they peddle a gorgeous hybrid of eclectic noise. Without wanting to offer too many lazy comparisons, this would easily be at home on the mighty Dischord records, and shares similarities with Faraquet, HP Zinker and perhaps on a more contemporary tip, At The Drive In. It's altogether a more mature and considered approach to the whole affair though, blending cutting, jagged riffs with a carefully considered sensitivity.
You really can't go wrong with this album, I have no gripes with it. Album actually came out in 07' but that's really besides the point. Got a download link for those of you who are interested, click the pic.
