Just as he does toy with shapes and structures through retro-laced, post-pop and graffiti-imbued collages, Broshuda has developed a sound that is steadily mutating from a certain ‘figuration’ to increasingly abstract forms. Moving from more calibrated formats to anti-normative fields of experimentation, ‘Ooze Vector’ is a striking example of this substantial evolution.

Best known under his production alias of Carsten Jost, Dial co-founder David Lieske is set to release his second album ‘Perishable Tactics’ in January 2017. Our pick ‘Army Green’ offers a spooky STL-tinged melody lacing up a deeper than deep bass drum, dusty claps and delayed piano keys drowned in reverb with a hip-swaying groove.

Baleine 3000: The Nap
This EP – or whatever you want to call it – is indicative of Vlek’s deconstructive/reconstructive spirit. The Nap is a product fusing just about every beloved vinyl-based format: Its 7 tracks gives the sense of an LP, the 20-minute duration suggests otherwise, and an 8-minute track on the entirety of the B side whiffs strongly of a 12” single.
