Sebastian's best of 2013

In February we turn five years old which is quite a respectable and mature age, we think. Because of that we thought we'd drop our lame nomes de guerre in case you hadn't noticed. Not only that, we're even showing our faces which means that we're putting ourselves on the line as we're risking getting beaten up on the street by chillwave fans angry that we didn't include their favourite song on our lists.

At this point I'd like to point out that that picture unintentionally turned out pretty ironic. So, just to deny any charges, I do have glasses, but they're totally not black Wayfarers, my bike have five (5) gears, that lumberjack shirt is actually grey and black and not red and black (I'm Scandinavian after all), and although I like a good cup of coffee, I hate PBR. So there. On the other hand, we obviously do listen to music that your less cool friends probably haven't heard of, and we probably did listen to that band before they were mainstream.

Anyway, best of 2013... Here's where I pretend that I listen to other genres than dance music after complaining about how hard it was to decide on which tracks were Objectively Best Of The Year. And usually these lists are cathartic all-night work. But who are we kidding really? These lists are basically just twenty songs that we have listened to a lot, played out a lot or in other ways have meant something more than other songs this year.

So how do we describe 2013 in music? Again, it's hard to be completely objective. How do we differentiate between trends in music from shifts in or change of focus in our personal and subjective tastes? Especially since this blog basically just is about what a couple of dudes are listening to at the moment?

Let's start at the other end then. Personally, I dove deeper into deep- and UK house this year, my focus changing away from the sunny melodies and synths of yesteryear to the rhythms of deep basslines and four-to-the-floor kick drums. But at the same time, some nice vocals never hurt anyone.

And if we were to try to decipher the trends in our corner of the music world, I don't seem to be the only one moving in this direction. But more about that in future posts.

Apart from dropping our aliases, we have decided to just write about the top ten to make the posts a little more manageable. We also reveal the list from top to bottom, but since this surely will turn your whole world upside-down, it won't change your reading in practicality.

So, let's get to it!


#1. Holt Blackheath - Don't Have To Call [unsigned/free download]
Holt Blackheath managed to make this epitome of the perfect UK house track in my opinion. Deep bass, warm synth stabs, sharp hand claps and soulful vocals (plus that lovely plopping sound) makes for a catchy and uplifting tune that even your mum will like. It's been one of my most-played tunes this year, both when DJ-ing and in the headphones at home. It's unbelievable that this track hasn't been picked up by a proper label.




#2. Disclosure feat. Eliza Doolittle - You & Me (Bicep Remix) [unreleased]
Disclosure who? Bicep what? Ok, so hardly two unknown names, especially on my lists. Disclosure had one of the most anticipated and hyped up album releases of the year, even if they were distanced by Daft Punk in that regard. We'll see what happens with Disclosure. Are they lost in the burning light of mainstream pop music for ever, or can they keep their relevance despite the success? Undoubtedly vastly talented guys we're hoping for the latter.

Constantly moving forward with giant steps are Bicep, who had a couple of great EPs out, including that awesome track "Sacrifice" with Simian Mobile Disco. But my pick is their You & Me remix that was supposed to be released on the remix EP. The stream was premiered on Mixmag, but has since been removed, and in the end it wasn't included on the EP (despite being on Universal's promo copies). What's happening with it is all a mystery, but it was easily this year's best breakdown and build-up.




#3. HAIM - Falling (Duke Dumont Remix) [Polydor/Universal]
HAIM where? Duke Dumont when? Yes, another pretty obvious name remixing and even more obvious one. HAIM sky rocketed to stardom this year, and deservedly so with that album of theirs. There were a couple of originals in contention for this list, but in the end I went with the Duke Dumont remix. Dumont, who was close to making the list on his own with his "Need You (100 %)" that made it to the top of the UK singles chart. If the Bicep remix above was the build-up of the year then this was the intro of the year.




#4. Germans - Cruel [self released]
The track that probably stands out the most on the upper half of the list is an acquaintance we made through Auxiliary Tha Masterfader's awesome remix that blew our minds. Obviously Aux knows how to make that sweet Moroder-esque disco, but you can't take away that the original, which makes me think of Will to Power's classic "Baby, I Love Your Way", is truly great too. Tough choice between the two, but I'll have to choose Germans' original slow dance, to balance the list a bit. Sorry Auke!



#5. Waze & Odyssey - Be Right There (Citizen Remix) [MadTech]
A productive year each from Waze & Odyssey and Citizen with, among other things, strong releases on Kerri Chandler's MadTech label ("Be Right There" and "So Submissive" respectively). Not only that, but they had the good taste to remix each other's tracks too. All four of them were favourites this year, so why not let the three of them share the spot with these atmospheric synths and perfect garage beats?




#6. Tâches - Vegas (Joey McCrilley Remix) [unsigned/free download]
Another moody UK house track that I've enjoyed this year is Joey McCrilley's remix of  Tâches' "Vegas". One of the reasons is that it so clearly shows the drum and bass DNA of the UK garage movement, with that driving sub-bass and toned down kick-drum that doesn't emerge until halfway into the track. On top of that it's just a great song. I generally never listen to the actual lyrics in music, but the phrase "I see your stupid eyes" always sticks out when I listen to this track. I hope for more songs about stupid eyes in 2014.



#7. John Newman - Cheating (Wayward Remix) [Island]
Starting to see a pattern here? John Newman has a great soul voice, and Wayward is another very talented British production duo. This track resembles the one above in many ways, but it has a much straighter house rhythm. Still, great vocals and great beat.



#8. Bat For Lashes - Rest Your Head (MANIK Ghost Pines Rework) [unsigned/free download]
"Epic" is an adjective that we probably throw around a little too easily, but M A N I K's rework of this Bat for Lashes song is just that: a musical journey through different temperaments and styles. One second it's introverted, psychedelic IDM, and the next second it's an uplifting party banger. Ok, party banger is perhaps an exaggeration, but an utterly danceable house tune isn't a misrepresentation.



#9. Dusky - Careless [AUS Music]
Speaking of utterly danceable, Dusky's "Careless" was a track that we competed in putting on first when playing together. It's the sort of track that is perfect to mark a change in gears. Those who recognize that signature bassline immediately know what's up (and since "Careless" sat on top of most download charts, they are many), while those who don't know the track always warm to that vocal hook.

#10. Hackman - Change My Life [Futureboogie]
One of the newest tracks on this list is Hackman's "Change My Life", released a couple of weeks ago on vinyl. It's always risky to add such an obvious current favourite to a best of list, but this track just can't be overlooked. Chances are I'm being too hard on it, because it sure has a giant bullet next to the chart position. That growling sub-bass and that double-bass on top of it makes it extremely funky. Add lovely organs and vocals and it makes for one sweet track.



#11. Spirit Animal - The Black Jack White (Caleb L'Etoile Remix) [unsigned/free download]


#12. Empire of the Sun - We Are the People (Ted Lyons & His Cubs 5 Years Late Remix) [unsigned/free download]


#13. Sophie - Bipp [Numbers]


#14. Deetron feat. Hercules and Love Affair - Crave [Music Man]


#15. Classixx - Borderline [Innovative Leisure]


#16. Laszlo Dancehall - Gave Up [ManMakeMusic]


#17. Mercury - Let's Celebrate ft. Byron Stingily (Kings of the Universe Remix) [Nurvous]


#18. Stuffa - Levitate [Trunkfunk]


#19. Kixnare - Gucci Dough [U Know Me Records]


#20. Celsius - Thought As Much [Moda Black]

Jonas' best of 2013

2013 is soon over and it's time for us to summarize this year music wise. The highlight of the year kind of. For me it has been a superb year when I look into the rear-view mirror, both when it comes to music and how my life has been. Maybe the two are connected?

As always it's super hard to narrow down a great year of music into a top 20 list and as always a lot of splendid music had to be out of the list. Some of the tunes that will be out of my top 20 will make it into our Spotify Top 100 list that will be out in a couple of days.

Here are my selected best of 2013 tracks and I hope you will dig these tracks as much as I do. The list consists of everything from deep house, tech house, nu disco and chillwave. This is our way to say thanks to you Tracasseur fans out there by making our Best of lists. Enjoy and see you in 2014!

#1. Noir & Haze meets Compact Grey & Ron Costa - Around The Bane (Noir Mashup Treatment)
This is a nice bunch of people that came together to produce this #1 track of 2013. Noir (a.k.a. René Kristensen), Haze, Ron Costa and Compact Grey made this collaboration and I'm very happy for that. When it was released this summer it hit me hard and it was such a sweet tune to put on during our sets. "Around the Bane" has also been hanging on in the charts over at Beatport for a long time, well deserved!



#2. Rebelski - The Rift Valley (Lee Van Dowski Binary Re-Up Mix)
Ohh, how much have I played this remix this year? In my home, in my car, in the clubs, yeah almost everywhere I have been. Love Lee Van Dowski's take on Rebelski's already great track. This is been my anthem of 2013, especially during the summer driving around with friends in the car. And what points a really superb track is that you never get tired of it.




#3. Le Youth - C O O L
Le Youth released this debut single "C O O L" in June with a bunch of good remixes. In the beginning I fell for one of the remixes until I re-discovered the original, that is such a sweet pearl. So in the end it was no doubt that the original should make the list, and it finally ended up in the top 3. Love the tropical vibes that harmonizes so well with the nu disco and RnB sound.




#4. Groovebox - Brooklyn
If we're talking about anthems, Groovebox's "Brooklyn" has been our anthem when we've played the whole summer and autumn on the dance floors. It's such a banger on the floors and every time we get into the right mood. It's tech house at its best!




#5. Josh Butler - Got A Feeling (Bontan Remix / Pleasurekraft Edit)
Josh Butler made a mighty fine original with "Got A Feeling" and Bontan made an even deeper remix of it and it became accomplished when Pleasurekraft put the final touch to it. A gem made in a three-way-step from three brilliant producers. We got the feeling!




#6. Koda - The Last Stand
The first down-tempo track on this year's list. Because we also need some really sweet chill sounds in between the high tempo. With Koda, we can all find that beautiful sound that make you dream away. This tune is so winsome and so amazing.




#7. Round Table Knights - So Good
Round Table Knights, the great Swiss duo that always releases major tracks. "So Good" is one of them. Been a favourite since I first heard it and it's still a tune to play in my set. I can't count how many times people have come up to me and asked what track it is. That, I would say, is a pretty good gradein how good this tune is.




#8. Mano Le Tough - Primative People (Tale Of Us Remix)
The Berlin-based duo Tale Of Us gave us this magnificent remix of Mano Le Tough's "Primative People" this year. Wow what a remix then! Love the sound of the xylophone (or glockenspiel?) that goes through the whole track. Genius tune!




#9. Ninetoes - Finder
Another Berlin-based producer, Ninetoes hit us up with this sweet semi-tropical deep house anthem. The track was actually kind of the anthem of Garden Festival in Croatia this summer. Once again proof that Ninetoes have created a modern classic.




 #10. Wet - Don't Wanna Be Your Girl (Eest Coast Remix)
I actually fell in love with this sad and beautiful tune right away when I heard it. The original from Wet is as beautiful but Eest Coast have pitched down her voice and put his style onto the track so it became even sadder and even better. Nice work from Eest Coast!




 #11. Viceroy - Dream Of Bombay (Bufi Remix)



 #12. NVOY - Is It Good



 #13. Finnebassen - Bella



 #14. Erkka - Excommunication



 #15. CloSE - My Way (Tanner Ross & Slow Hands Remix) Finnebassen Edit



 #16. Luca Cassani - Gluttony



 #17. Niko Schwind & Kellerkind - Lose Control (Teenage Mutants Remix)



 #18. Tocadisco - Falling



 #19. Pleasurekraft, Jaceo, Vedic - The Most Dangerous Game



 #20. Imany - You Will Never Know (Miguel Campbell & Matt Hughes Remix)

Chris Malinchak + The Magician

Chris Malinchak's "If You Got It" was one of last year's best tracks, and it's one that still spreads that warm feeling every time you hear it. That means two things if you want to remix it: it will be hard to make a completely crap version. But it also means that there is a huge risk that your audience will be greatly underwhelmed by the result compared with such a great original especially if you make something completely different. So, embarking on such a venture is a bold move even if you're a producer of The Magician's calibre.

And how does he fare? Why, very well. Very well indeed. Stephen dares to do something different, but still awesome. Not only is it just as funky as the original, but it is so in more of an uptempo party kind of way, whereas the original is much more mellow. In a way I also think this track sums up the nu disco/deephouse fuse that we've seen over the last couple of years, with it's deep bass and catchy synth stabs. And obviously it's a fuse that Stephen has played a big part in.

Quite a trick you pulled off there maestro!

Kygo, wow!

Meet Kygo, a young Norwegian guy from Bergen. I don't know how, but I've missed out on his amazing remixes and edits, but now I've found me a treasure, bigger than Blackbeard's.

First I stumbled upon Kygo's edit of "Jolene" and was about to make a post about that nice edit. While starting writing the post I started listening to his other tunes on his SoundCloud. The edit of Marvin Gaye was also a gem and then the remixes of the British folk band Passenger got me hooked. There's not a bad remix on Kygo's SoundCloud, all the edits and remixes are bloody fantastic. His tunes, the first not older than nine months moves from slower deep house vibes to Caribbean chill out vibes. His last tune, the remix of Ed Sheeran is a piece of beauty. I love this and you are about to get Kygo hooked! All tunes comes as free download and there are more nice tunes over at his SoundCloud.















Hackman - Change My Life EP

Today awesome Bristol label Futureboogie releases their latest gem. And it's a real gem even by Futureboogie standards. Hackman's Change My Life EP include three strong tracks with soulful vocals, jazzy organs, deep basslines and funky percussions. My pick of the bunch is that divine title track with the bass sounding like a proper double bass (bass guitars are for amateurs).

Now, there's only one downside, and that's that today's release date is for the vinyl. The digital version seems to be out early next year, according to Juno.



Hackman had another release on Futureboogie last spring together with buddy Jabru, calling their project Bruh Jackman. Still love that "Just to Keep".

Redondo remixes Skee Lo classic "I Wish"

Redondo, who made the best remix of Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" earlier this year, also have made this bootleg remix of a Skee Lo classic. Skee Lo is most famous for "I Wish" from 1995 and I remembered it as a sweet and fun piece of music. Redondo have made the track into something more deep, cool and less fun, in a really good way. Great work once again Redondo and it's free to get.

Skee Lo - I Wish (Redondon Remix)

Shadow Child - Collected/Friday

Awesome producer and Rinse FM host Shadow Child has a great album/compilation aptly called "Collected". One of my picks is the collaboration with Sinden.



The other pick (since it's Friday) is this:



"Friday was released as a single, including this awesomw remix by MK:



Both releases is out now on great label Food Music.

Tommy Vercetti - Good Feelings

Here's a huge party banger that I've been listening to a lot lately: Tommy Vercetti's "Good Feelings" (out now on great UK label Love Not Money's latest compilation New Love Vol. 4). The choice of moniker is kind of ironic since Tommy makes house with a distinct UK flavour and not the sort of retro 80's nu italo that the used to post all the time a couple of years ago and that the protagonist of GTA: Vice City perhaps more likely would listen to. Anyway, great work from a producer and label worth keeping an eye on.



The track contains a very small part of a very famous sample that Alex Metric used with great effect in this track. The part with the sample over those breakbeats is truly awesome, but I can't tell if the drop is ghetto bass or horrible EDM "electro haus". Someone must have made an awesome edit of it.



Obviously that sample forever became a meme in the collective musical mind after this huge hit by Junior Jack.



Few of these tracks beats the original by Cherrelle featuring Alexander O'Neal. I wonder what Cherrelle thinks about Alexander stealing all the thunder with his verse? You'll also note that the original vocals have a completely different rhythm, and if you, like me, heard Junior Jack before the original, you'll think Alexander's singing sounds off-beat. Anyway, awesome song that really shows the origins of soulful deephouse.



CHVRCHES + Lxury

This weeks we could read in the news that the Swedish school system is doing pretty badly with dwindling results. I don't know how the British school system is doing but judging by the spelling of some pretty important acts, maybe we're not alone in the shitter.

Young lad Lxury had a great EP debut with J.A.W.S. which was co-produced by Disclosure. With his remix of favourites CHVRCHES he shows us that he gets by just fine on his own. You can pick up the Lies EP on iTunes (provided you're in Britain and isn't too picky about sound quality). The rest of us will have to wait till it's available elsewhere.




Miss Kittin + Château Marmont

Welcome back to the world's best (laziest) blog! As a wise man once said: if you happen to listen to a song you like, just splash it up on the blog - you don't have to write a thesis about it. So, in no particular order I thought I'd do just that: post some new and not so new songs that I happen to like at the moment.

First up is Château Marmont's electropop take on Miss Kittin's almost a month old Maneki Neko. Château Marmont must be one of the most underrated French electro acts. They ride on that French electro wave, but always with their own take on things, and they're always delivering.

[Free download] Pat Lok - Body II Me

Pat Lok is back with this track available for free download if you just 'like' his Facebook page. But of course you do that already. Pat describes it as a house jam with all them sampley chords the kids like. Which is obviously true.

New remix from Yuksek

Sweet new remix from our long time friend Yuksek. This time on Chassol.

Röyksopp - Something In My Heart (feat. Jamie Irrepressible)

Röyksopp's "Running To The Sea" with Susanne Sundfør has been a favourite since I first heard it on Norwegian television. Tomorrow Röyksopp will release it along with a new fave as the B-side. This new gem features singer Jamie McDermott from the ten-man-band The Irrepressibles. His voice has always been a beauty and now it marries together with the sweet sounds of Röyksopp. Buy your copy with these two stunning tunes November 25 over at iTunes.

Perseus - Shadow of the Beast

Perseus is finally back after a too long an absence with yet another soulful slowdance deephouse gem, including the patented hydraulic snare. Need we say more? No, we don't.


Friday, November 15, 2013

Justin Faust - Disco Cuts EP

Our favourite German (or at least one of them - we have a few) Justin Faust is in great form. His three-track EP Disco Cuts is out now on legendary New York label Nurvous. The title is a good table of contents since the tracks are top quality filtered disco house with added disco. Deeper than French touch disco house but more disco than deep house. Sort of like Mylo meeting Tiger & Woods. Awesome stuff Timm!



Like Justin Faust and Nurvous on Facebook.

Bicep - Satisfy

These are exciting times since everyone's favourites Bicep are rolling out their full Soundcloud previews of their upcoming Satisfy EP on their own Feel My Bicep label. This is only their second release on FMB, but since the first one was "Vision of Love", which was one of last years best tracks, they clearly go for quality over quantity.

We have already been giggling at the "Satisfy" part of the promo video which consists of clips from the classic Swedish 80's movie "Stockholmsnatt" (Stockholm night) featuring young, fair-haired martial arts aficionado/street punk Paolo Roberto effectively playing himself. Somewhat of a renaissance man, he went on to become a TV personality, Italian food importer and even politician at one point.


Maybe more interesting than the exploits of Roberto are the snippets of the actual tracks. Bicep continues with the 90's revival, but now from more of a UK perspective than the Chicago or New York-oozing garage from "Vision of Love". The title track have the sort of breakbeats from the early 90's British rave music that eventually lead to jungle and drum'n'bass. "The Final Trip" sounds a lot like Kevin 'Reese' Saunderson who, although being one of the three grandfathers of Detroit techno was the one with the deepest links to the UK rave scene, with his moniker Tronikhouse in 1991 and 1992 for example. However, the track I instinctively like the best is "Snackbar", which happens to be the most classic American garage track of the three. It's just too damn funky!



Pick up Satisfy EP on a round plate of black plastic on Juno on November 25. Follow Bicep on Facebook.

Monitor 66 celebrates 10.000 followers on SoundCloud

This celebration from the cool kids of Monitor 66 ends up with a new free tune named "Kordial". A deep and a bit dark tune to (de)-celebrate the Swedish autumn, that's both kind of depressing sometimes but also filled with great beautifulness. Celebrate with Monitor 66!



Missing Dude Skywalker?

We have! But now the Miami duo Dude Skywalker are back with this new freebie remix of the wonderful classic "Missing" by Everything But The Girl. A sweet take of this classic where they have kept the soul of the song but added that extra Skywalker flavour.

New Pyramid remix of Thomas Azier

Our French friend Pyramid is out with a new remix of Thomas Azier's "Ghostcity". I'd love the sound that Pyramid has given this already danceable track. In other words, the original is a great tune and Pyramid's remix is another great tune in a darker way. Also great is that it comes as a free download.



Check out the original along with the official video:

NVOY - Is It Good

Got an email from this wonderful duo NVOY from Oxford. Their latest tune "Is It Good" hit me right away.

NVOY make music influenced by the earlier house music from Detroit, Chicago and of course the UK. We are in love with this kind of music and in NVOY we've found us some new and fresh tunes thanks to them. We can only say, keep it up, we're now following your every step.

[Free download] Way Out West + Pat Lok

Veteran duo Way Out West consists of Nick Warren and Jody Wisternoff. One of our favourite British Columbia acts, Pat Lok, has remixed their 2000 track "UB Devoid", and we like it a lot.



Download it for free on Pat's Facebook page.

Modern Talker + Kings Of The Universe (+ 2 unsigned tracks)

Awesome Stockholm producers and generally nice guys Kings of the Universe, who remixed Mercury a while back have a couple of things brewing. First off they have remixed Lisbon producer Modern Talker on Hamburg label Tiefblau. It's a good release, but KOTU's bouncy garage track is the best along with Lorenzo Kurizu's remix in my opinion.




As if that wouldn't be enough, the guys have two unsigned tracks that I hope will be picked up soon.



The Magician - When The Night Is Over remixes

We covered The Magician's new single "When The Night Is Over", featuring Swedish duo Newtimers a while back. This week the remix EP was released with a pretty big-name support in Brodinski, Ejeca, Clancy and Claptone. I don't know if it's the house/deep house poisoning talking, but I'm not that impressed with Brodinski's slow electro version, but, rather predictably perhaps, I like the other versions a lot. Oh, and the Claptone remix, which featured in the Magic Tape from the other day, is free download. Pick the EP up on Beatport or iTunes.

[Free download] Germans + Auxiliary tha Masterfader

Here's an amazing slow dance disco gem from one of my favourite Dutch producers and people in general: Auxiliary tha Masterfader. Warm synths and those lovely vocals over a slow and meaty 80's disco funk comp make up one of my favourite tracks at the moment. Truly awesome stuff!



Of course, a good foundation for a good remix is a good original, and Germans is a real find. With the catchy motto "pop breakup songs: feel good about feeling bad" Brooklynite Julia Kwamya makes wonderfully crafted, dreamy and melancholic music, and it's obvious that she's someone worth keeping tabs on.



Tuesday, October 15, 2013

[Free download] Chordashian - Skyscraper Souls Feat. Freedom Fry

Really digging Brooklyn duo Chordashian's new track Skyscraper featuring French-American duo Freedom Fry. And it's nice of them all to give it away for free too!


Magic Tape 36

Autumn is over us, and The Magician just released his second Magic Tape after his summer vacation. No track list as usual.

2 new Jonas Rathsman tracks

Great to finally have a couple of new Jonas Rathsman originals to sink our teeth into. Last week his track "Yes I Am" was inckuded on the great Stockholm label Local Talk's latest installment of their OneOffs EP compilation series.Pick it up over at Juno. More about Local Talk soon.



Jonas is heading out on a Euro/UK/North America tour in October, with a special French Express Takeover show on Boiler Room TV live in L.A. on October 30. Which is the day after Jonas returns home to French Express with the release of "Feel What I Feel". Label boss/Perseus guy Leon has promised there are a lot of great stuff in the making from French Express, so more about them soon too.


[Video] Cut Copy - Free Your Mind


Cut Copy rolls out their new Album at the beginning of November (1st in Australia, 4th in the UK, 5th in the US). Until then you can drool over Stellan Skarsgård as a pretty fit cult leader in the new video.

Monday, October 7, 2013

Baio - Mira (+ New Navy + Bodhi)

Brooklynite Scott Baio has an Ep called "Mira" out on Future Classic on October 28. Which seems like a good label fit since both Baio and FC combine quality with versatility. Just compare the housey "Mira" with the indie electro remix of New Navy.




Also, we've got to mention that today Future Classic also release Bodhi's very near perfect "Imperfection", which is an ultra-smooth and ultra-funky garage track.

CHVRCHES + Moon Boots

A new remix from one of the best ones out there in Moon Boots when he takes on the superb Scottish band CHVRCHES and their sweet sweet tune "The Mother We Share". A perfect combination that's lovely candy for your ears. Even sweeter is the free download it comes with.

Low Steppa

Birmingham's Low Steppa is another of the abundence of talented UK house and bass producers at the moment. Deep but bouncy, which is how I like it. Mr Steppa recently released an EP called "Simples" on his own Simma Black label, but since he's a productive fellow, he's been popping out new stuff, including some freebees, since then even.






The streams above are just a selection, there's lots more on his Soundcloud.
