Knxweldge - Hexual Sealings LP

….young Knxwledge the great.

The latest addition to Knx’s repertoire
comes in the form of Hexual.Sealings.LP -
an 11 track project matching accapellas over Knx’s
patented jumbled minimalism & airy clunks.
Or whateverthefuckyouwannacallem.
You know – that good shit hes known for.

Hexual.Sealings flips (in order)
Musiq Soulchild & Darien Brockington & Jay-Z
& Dilla & Nas & Faith Evans
& OutKast & Bilal (live) & Telepopmusik (whoa)
& your wig & Drake & your whole shit up.

The digital LP boasts two covers –
a collage by Aabiva,
which features an AK47-weilding O’shea (apparently that one was not a good day),
& a sleek, “beech”-ier design by SeanBrown (above).

To start off, you can download the FRSHCLSV free single, “Loavhorts” -
Knx’s James Blake-ian reimagining of Musiq’s bitter ballad, “Befriends”
from his latest album, Musiqinthemagiq (seriously.), released earlier this year.
You can also stream the full Hex.Seal‘s
thru the Bandcamp player before copping below.

& for the sake of always staying thoro,
also included is “Mind The Gap” -
a brief video intro to KNXROCK -
Knxwledge’s upcoming collab project w/ NY-based producer, InfinitiRock.

RISE: DAISUKE TANABE
PUBLISHED 3 WEEKS AGO

We meet the softly spoken Japanese beatmaker about his part in this year's RBMA stage at Sonar festival
TEXT BY DAZED DIGITAL
Painfully shy and quietly spoken, Daisuke Tanabe let's his music do the talking for him. Carefully crafting downbeat, glitchy emotive electronica, his songs tend to hold an almost melancholic edge, besides catchy hooks and elements of trip-hop. Releasing on the likes of Ninja Tune, CD-R, and Brownswood, the prolific Japanese producer was selected to join the Red Bull Music Academy which has provided a platform for him as a performer - such as at Barcelona's Sonar festival last week where we caught a few moments with him and a very helpful translator.

WHAT'S…
…your secret talent?
Fishing maybe! Also drawing!

…favourite sound?
Kids laughing…

…worst habit?
Not working properly!

…best thing about where you're from?
Japan? The four seasons.

…the top of your wish list?
To have a comfortable bed right now!

…dream collaborator?
Aphex twin - I'm sure everyone says that!

…working on right now?
I'm working on a collaboration album with Kidkanevil.

…most excited about next?
An opportunity to go to other countries to travel.

What is it like being a part of the RBMA?
Great, saw so many good parties and experiences..

Fit as part of the academy? Links between the artists?
Yeah I think so! I think everyone's quite shy! And musically, I think music reflects characters so the sound is quite shy also!
My sound is kind of shy, I put some basslines but also some more hiding sounds…

How long have you been making music for? And has it changed?
Been making music for twelve years now… So yeah definitely…

Ambivalent Readies New EP for Plus8

The Plus8 imprint, which is the harder counterpart to Richie Hawtin's Minus label, has announced it will be releasing a new EP from US-born, now Berlin-based producerAmbivalent next week, July 25. Said to represent Ambivalent's new-found widening of his production scope, the Jackson EP is comprised of four tracks that find him "carefully blending the soul of his American roots with a European propensity for machine music." For a better idea of what that means, you can check the brief preview video for the EP below, along with the Jackson's complete tracklist and artwork.

Tracklist:
01 Jackson
02 Train To Brooklyn
