The autumn leaves and new releases continue to pile up outside of the Sells Studio. In this edition you’ll hear the first single off of Darkstar’s much anticipated debut, some trippy beats from Balam Acab, Julio Bashmore’s latest “Footsteppin” single, and more from Four Tet’s glorious “There Is Love In You.” Apparat treats us to a new track from his DJ-Kicks mix, John Roberts debuts some beautiful minimal beats, we feature some classic tracks from Warp records, a miniature set of avant-electronic pop, and finish off with the latest releases from Hyetal and Kidkut.

Autumn has arrived, bringing an intense schedule of noteworthy releases. As always, we’ve tried to highlight a diverse range of future music. Things kick off with new music from the bizarre and beautiful Salem, then move to the colorful Spanish pop of El Guincho, and the minimal fuzz of Pantha Du Prince remixing School of Seven Bells. You’ll hear some great new beats from The Flashbulb, Proem, and much anticipated sounds from Shed’s latest album. The later third features some great new singles from the likes of James Blake, Ramadanman, Zomby, and Ikonika. Not to be missed!
A reminder to Columbus residents: We’ll be playing live this coming Thursday, October 14th, at Kobo, starting at 9PM. Come for a night of future music, live art, NES, and libations. No cover until 11PM.

Here is a Saturday transmission to the board, shareholders, new release merchants, and valued listeners. Despite the Tough Economic Climate (© 2008), there is reason to stumble out of bed and perk up one’s ears. For example: A new single from Toro Y Moi, Stereolab’s Laetitia Sadier’s debut solo album, the return of Seefeel, a weird new trip from Flying Lotus, and twenty years of Ninja Tune! If that doesn’t inspire eternal, unending profit growth there is always the debut full-length from Teebs to feel rich about, or the great run of releases from Planet Mu (Optimum, Solar Bears), or the return of the legendary group Underworld! The market may not sort you out, but the music will give you an honest chance.
