Obscuresounds – Infernal Machine
Finally got around to finishing Infernal machine off. Err, I’ll probably take out the reverse tape sounds right at the end, although I kinda like it for nostalgic reasons. Read...

Phoenix – 1901 (Obscuresounds Remix)
Vintage synthesizers… modern indie/alternative bands are slowly using these behemoths more and more to create something a bit more different. I’m loving Phoenix’s album Wolfgang Amadeus (2009), as they infuse contemporary music with the retro appeal of the 80′s. Read...

Lovers Hangover (Featuring Diana Ross, Breakbot, Data)

Obscuresounds – The Swami
The 3rd release from the sampling project. Generally the reaction to this latest release is that it is a lot more commercial, which is exactly the aim for the project as a whole. The style is pretty much psychedelic thanks in part to the sample provided by William Penn from 1966. Read...
