Oblique Stratagies

I just saw this posted on the Glitch Hop Forum and thought that it definitely needed to be shared.

170+ Oblique Strategies for Electronic Music

In the ever growing sea of generic sounding producers that are putting time into their DAW and pumping out "dance floor bangers" all using the exact same VST's and Vengeance Samples, how does one define an original sound for themselves anymore? This website put together a list of 170+ ways to get yourself thinking outside the box and use different ways to come up with ideas.


I also came across This Website which follows the same kind of idea as the last website but instead of listing all of the tips, you pick a random card from the deck and go with it.

Freddy Todd In the House!

I wish Fred was in my house, but then I'd have glitchy bangers keeping me up till 5am every night. As wonderful as that might sound for Saturday and Sunday mornings during the week it would lead to a pissed off boss, lack of employment and no beer fund.

In lieu, I've got a link for a taste of glitchy awesomeness. It's just right for personal consumption through your Itunes, Ipod, Itouch, Iphone, Ipad'd out Ilife. If you like what you hear, drop a few dollars for his time and efforts. Remember! Support your artists!

"Hold Tight" is my favorite off of the release. Check out the Missy E drop half way through the track!

On a more serious note. Keep your ears peeled for this guy. He doesn't ram out tons of tunes so anything that drops should be grabbed fast.

SHAMIK - Nomadic Injections

Shamik is a long time friend of mine and to say the least an absolutely amazing artist and friend. He is definitely one of the most passionate people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and that passion comes through constantly in his craft. His drive for hard work is seldom equaled by his peers and I know this first hand. Trying to keep up with him and his push for moving forward have often felt like the tortoise and the hare, me being the tortoise of course. I have nothing but the most complimentary things to say about Shamik and it seems as though 99% of people that encounter him have similar feelings. He emits an energy that is beyond positive so I encourage anyone who crosses paths with him to say at the very least a quick hello, it will brighten your day! So without further delay I turn to Nomadic Injections...
This is Shamiks second full length LP and one that I have had the pleasure of producing 2 tracks for [one with jake roberts as Knight Riderz]. The album was recorded in 5 countries and 3 languages, over the course of 3 years. It covers a wide variety of genres including glitch, dubstep, hip hop, and of course acappella. This is by far the best recorded synopsis of Shamik as an artist to date. From the dance floor killers "Focus" and "Light It Up" to the head bobbin hiphop joints "Break It Down" and "Jam" to the more introspective pieces "A Little Room" and "Lost" this is a 360 inside and out, upside and down tour of Shamik at his best. Go and buy this now! Honestly the best ten spot youll ever drop.
