HOTFLUSH PODCASTS

Label of the hour, Hotflush Recordings, has been supplying us with some damn fine material. Mount Kimbie, Scuba, Sigha, Untold, Joy Orbison, Pangaea - what these artists have in common is that their tunes are hard to categorize. The kind where the last 20 comments on youtube are kids arguing about what genre it is, agreeing on something like "new-rave-dub-hop-abilly". But ultimately, all of these artists have a sound that is symptomatic for the label itself. And that's what makes Hotflush so hot. Music that is hard to define, but obviously Hotflush.

Apart from all the sweet releases, they're bringing us a podcast every month from one of their artists. This month's podcast comes from San Fransisco's Jus Wan.

You can also pick up the podcasts directly from the Hotflush website. We're just making your life a little easier!

Sigha

Sigha (pronounced "S-eye-ah") of Hotflush Recordings has been releasing some pretty cool tracks this year. He describes his productions as having a heavy bass sound, which is true, but the overall feel of his tracks is very mellow and spacey. I guess in that sense he's kind of like Burial. The tempo and beats are technically danceable, but you can just as well space out to work or whatever while you're listening to it.
Sigha also throws his own "Medium" party at the Plastic People club in north-east London. And when he isn't playing or producing music, Sigha is standing behind the counters of London's famous BM Soho record store, where I'm sure you'll be able to find some of his own music too. You will also find it here.
