Our man from Edinburgh, editor massive Dicky Trisco will be gracing our digs minimüzikhol. So why not start the week with some easy going disco deviance fun. He’s got two amazing sets up for grabs on soundcloud. The first one done for the Cool in the Pool blog is absolutely breathtaking. Don’t miss Friday night if you’re around town.

Russian Alexey Devyanin whom we know better as Gultskra Artikler is fulfilling its country’s ages old dream of getting down to warmer waters with his new alias Pixelord.

I’ve overlooked this Mulatu Astatke retrospective from Strut last year, mainly because I think I’ve heard most of his back catalogue and there was nothing that could surprise me. A deeper look unearthed two gems though, featuring two late Ethiophian giants, Menelik Wossenachew on one and Tilahun Gessesse on the other.

New stuff piling up in our mailbox. First single from Balmorhea’s upcoming third album. Owen Pallett remixed by Simon Bookish. Borrowed Eyes on Banter MM. Brooklyn’s Psychobuildings, and Cuckoo Chaos on Lefse Records.

#84 : Heady electronica treatise from Mr. Can Ayverdi; this is a mellow & hazy one bordering on glo-fi time to time. A dreamy summer set BUT it might go down as breakfast muzak on a winter day as well.

Very excited about meeting and hosting one of the primary movers and shakers in Budapest, DJ Suhaid tomorrow at our dig Mini Müzikhol. Amazing 70’s Magyar Funk & Soul, laced with rock & beat; he’s Budapest’s answer to our own Baris K. Yes, sometimes it’s our turn to get lucky!

This week’s surpriser flew into our inbox from the duo Berry Weight. Music for Imaginary Movies is their debut on their own label Hypnophonic Records, and it’s apt in describing the music involved.

Lo-fi kingpins Lefse Records have a new and equally amazing outlet called Waaga Records. In the spirit of 2010’s Waaga offers us a 15 song free download compilation, that starts with an amazing lazy psychedelic jam MING MING DANCE COMPANY and ends with glitcy IDM scapes by Seams. Impressive.

Jonny Trunk is the man behind Trunk Records, home to the amazing Moon Wiring Club and in the general direction of the Ghost Box clique. He has also been the broadcaster of Resonance.fm’s OST for the past 6 years, which is a heaven for all diggers of soundtracks and library music.
