Photo courtesy of HowAboutNo! on Flickr Osborne - In Gear Spectral Sound, subsidiary of the Ghostly International label, celebrates the work of its prolific talent with the release of Spectral Sound Vol 2. Osborne, or if you'd prefer to be more formally acquainted, Todd Osborn, is a double threat: part mechanical engineer genius and electronic mastermind. Not many producers can say they've been working on classified projects for the Air Force or build their own computers let alone lay down a plethora of tracks ...

Today we're bombarded with the internet's annual lame-joke-a-thon, but thankfully we, as usual, are pushing some ace records to keep us/you happy. Chief among those is this great talkbox-heavy cut from Osborne's new Hovercrafting EP for Spectral Sound, "Wait A Minute." If you ever yearned for that nasty little device to sneak into some smooth deep house material, consider this your redemption. Also, if you slept on it, we dropped another song from the EP last week called "Fire," so grab that if you haven't already and head to ...
STREAM: Audion - Look At The Moon
RCRD LBL —
After releasing "I Am The Car" for free download via his website, Matthew Dear keeps the Audion hit parade coming with "Look At The Moon," his new single for Spectral Sound (buy it on Beatport here.) Over the course of almost nine minutes, the track's lumbering rumble/clap pairing picks up some wormlike synths and pieces of minced vocal, slowly rolling itself into a gurgling minimal monster. Dear will be hopping around Europe this summer, playing ...

To celebrate the recent release of his latest LP, Immune , for Spectral Sound , we tapped Berlin-based house head Bodycode (a.k.a. Alan Abrahams, a.k.a. Portable) for his favorite tracks from his native South Africa. 1. Brenda Fassie & The Big Dudes "Weekend Special" Brenda Fassie was one of the first South African pop stars. In a country rife with apartheid and black inequality. this was quite a fete. It was reassuring to know that someone from such a deprived background could become a household name and a huge hit in the clubs just before the onset of Chicago house. She later went on to become a huge ...
STREAM: Audion - It's Full Of Blinding Light
RCRD LBL —
Because we are EDM junkies who froth at the utterance of the words "white label", we picked up Audion's "It's Full Of Blinding Light" EP when an initial pressing of fifty copies went up on the Ghostly store a month ago. And we played it infinitely, so we can attest to its greatness. So can Richie Hawtin. The proper release just came out through Spectral, third in a line of new Audion records that have surrounded his Hecatomb tour, which is currently roving around Europe. Stream the title ...

Featuring the wizardry of long-time artistic collaborators Will Calcutt and Eno Henze , Audion's new live set marks a return to a synesthetic techno experience, pairing Dear's dark electronic vibes with a blinding swirl of psychedelic pattern shifts. Appropriately, Audion's latest EP is titled It's Full of Blinding Light , and with its noisy builds and deep grooves, it is sure to compliment the eye candy quite nicely. Audion ...
