New releases continue to overrun the studio, loading this week’s show with a ton of fresh material. It’s a cohesive, yet diverse set, with stellar new tracks from Flying Lotus, Omar-S, Applescal, Ital Tek, SND, and Calvin Harris. Along the way you’ll also hear Four Tet remixing Anti-Pop Consortium, selections from Kompakt’s “Total 10” compilation, and yet another release from the prolific, living-dead beats of Zomby. Plug in for some futuristic beats!

We spent most of the week sorting through a pile of new releases that arrived at our doorstep. Your ears should be pleased with what made the cut. New hip-hop from the likes of Ghostface Killah & DOOM, the Blue Scholars, and Juice Aleem get things started. The second half moves along with top-shelf electronic tracks from Wisp, Remano Eszildn, Zomby, Floating Points, and Daedulus. Next, a mini-Italo set features a trio of brand new releases from label Italians Do It Better, and a premiere of a new Sally Shapiro song. We wrap things up with summertime favorites Neon Indian and YACHT. Enjoy!

This week kicks off a monthly review of our live recording archive from Hal & Al’s. Here, we dig into the July 2009 vault. The show starts with pop selections from Kenny including great tracks from The The, Emilie Simon, and Cicada. Next Joseph moves deeper in the mix with hip-hop and dubstep from Flying Lotus, Ras G, and Pinch. My selection of ambient and experimental songwriting finishes the show with new stuff from DJ Food, Deradoorian and Bibio. Lots of other tracks are included, so check it out and then come down to Hal & Al’s on Friday nights if you can make it. If not, this series of monthly live recordings can be the next best thing.
