Summer Sun

Exile- Summer Sun ( TAKE aka SWEATSON KLANK rmx) by TAKE

Exile's Radio is getting a series of re-rub treatments. Just I'm not sure who by yet.

All I know is Take A.K.A Sweatson Klank shot me this remix of Summer Sun and that it will feature on the release when the time comes. And that it's brutal. but beautiful.

Further to my Dublab Proton Drive post. . . where I touched on the rewards for donating. .

One of these audio gifts that I have been fortunate to hear. . .is Take AKA Sweatson Klank's 'Sweatson's Trajectory' Mix CD. This guy may not be blowing up in your face right now. . but by the looks of thing's he's certainly on the slow burn. Some of the new pieces I've been fortunate to hear will certainly make you sit up and take more notice.

Moovmnt recently clocked on to this. Forthcoming pieces noted there. . Including streams of his FlyLo and Architeq remixes. soon to hit wax. both are huge. Oh yeah... European tour dates too!

But the mix.

which is available to stream in the soundcloud player below. .

is by far one of the most effortlessly flowing pieces of music I have heard in a long time. Knitting together everything from Joker to TV on the Radio to Bobby Hutcherson to Enemy Earth. (TrackList) It takes a real musical head to be able to layer sounds together this well. .

Listen ! Sleep to it. Dance to it. Drink to it. Anything. .

If you like it. . . find a way to support him and Dublab.

You can grab a hard copy, either when its pressed later on in the summer (will be copies UK way) OR donate to the appropriate Dublab package to receive it and more.

Artwork by Augustine Kofie. Who is on a superhuman level right now.

Musique Large. Home to Fulgeance, Debruit, this beautiful Take mix. And an annoying web player that tries to blow my speakers out every time I visit.

But let's not dwell. Or rather, lets dwell on one of the many positives.

Today, although slightly delayed on it, is the day that I pass on this brilliant mix from the man TAKE. a. K. a Sweatson Klank

A lot of people try and give lessons in beats, but only few do it right. Use this as a future benchmark. .

Dirty Decibels of Thomas Two Thousand

new project from up&coming beatmaker Take. Its due to drop on the 14th of February on little known but high quality label, Eat Concrete. Focusing on the low end of the spectrum he kind of reminds me of Lukid, and consequently past track 'navigators' featuring the both of them combining their talents, was one of my favourite tracks of '07. Natural is one of the key words of the EP. . from the artwork to the last track (a beauty of a remix from Sk's Dimlite) you get the feel that it is more than just a man and a studio. Its kind of hard to explain. . . . which is why I am glad that Take himself has hooked me up with two tracks.. one brand new off the forthcoming release, the other track coming from a release at the tail end of last year (Plus Ultra Ep).
