Secret Peter - Best Of 2011 Mixtape

It will be mine, oh yes........ It will be mine

And so it is the end of 2011 and everybody in the whole world is compiling lists of what music they love and hate.... SURPRISE. Due to my lack of enthusiasm and sheer laziness I have decided to take a different route and I have put together a nice little mix of some of my favourite tracks from albums, artists and producers that have grabbed me by the jaffers during 2011.

Honourable mentions go out to Jacques Greene for my track of the year Another Girl and the mighty Machinedrum for his album Room(s) which gets the Secret Peter album of the year. Good work chaps.

Radiohead - King Of Limbs Remixes

All I want is the moon on a stick, just to see what if......

It is no secret that Thom Yorke and his cronies have always been lovers of electronic music. From the early beginnings of Radiohead the band have grown from being a typical ’rock’ band into an innovative, alternative and thought provoking group. Over the years electronics have crept their way slowly but surely into the Radiohead sound; from their now classic Kid A LP with its techno infused anthem Idioteque all the way through to their most recent opinion dividing album The King Of Limbs. Whilst not recording with Radiohead Thom Yorke has found time to remix DOOM’s track Gazillion Ear and collaborate with some of underground electronics finest producers including Four Tet, Burial and Flying Lotus. Not only that but he has given people a view into his musical mind with his genre hopping DJ sets at venues across the world including Flying Lotus’ Low End Theory, London dance haven Plastic People and his secret DJ slot at this year’s Glastonbury with long time Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich.

Now Radiohead have given up tracks from their latest album to some of their favourite producers to get behind the buttons for a series of vinyl released remixes and I have to say the Oxford boys have got great taste. The first duo to get the nod were Caribou’s Dan Snaith and Montreal based Jacques Greene which was then promptly followed by Nathan Fake and Mark Pritchard a.k.a Harmonic 313 taking over the reins, and I’m glad to say Radiohead aren’t stopping there. The next two instalments of the remix series include the likes of Lone, Pearson Sound, Four Tet, Thriller, Illum Sphere and Shed. Not only that but the series looks sure to continue for at least six to seven editions if the email I received from Radiohead’s official website is anything to go by. So I’d keep my eyes peeled if I were you....

“We’re not EXACTLY sure how many there will be in the series as more remixes are still coming in, but we think it will be around 6 or 7.”

Each of the 12” can be picked up from independent record stores across the country or from the King of Limbs store. If vinyl isn’t your thing you can also get your hands on them digitally here.

Take a listen to the third edition of the series from Lone, Pearson Sound and Four Tet below:

Paul White - Trust

I told you to trust me, because in the meantime I'll be here....

Paul White is undoubtedly one of the hardest working producers to grace God’s green earth; this man’s work ethic is incredible. He first came to my attention with his debut LP The Strange Dreams of Paul White. The mainly instrumental album is like a vortex into the producers musical mind; psychedelic, trippy, sample heavy hip-hop at its finest. Paul White is the UK’s answer to Madlib, take one listen to his debut and you’ll know what I mean. If you don’t believe me just click this link where you can get the whole album for free from forward thinking label One Handed Music.

Soon after his debut came Sounds From the Skylight named after his London attic studio The Skylight. Although Sounds From the Skylight didn’t venture too far from the sound he mastered on his debut it saw a slightly more experimental production style being developed. This set him up nicely to take us on the acid laced journey of his third LP Paul White and the Purple Brain. Paul White was given access to the back catalogue of cult Swedish psyche guitarist S.T Mikael and he jumped at the chance. Using his MPC mastery he delved further into the trippy hip hop unknown with incredible results.

Now he is back with his fourth album in two years Rapping with Paul White. Hip-Hop has always been his first love and this album has given him a chance to collaborate with some of his favourite MC’s including Danny Brown, Homeboy Sandman, Tranqill, Jehst and Guilty Simpson. The first single to be lifted from the LP is Trust featuring Guilty Simpson. Veteran rapper Guilty Simpson lays down his impeccable Detroit slang over a dark distorted horn laden beat provided by White. Not content with giving away his debut LP for free the good people at One Handed Music are giving away three tracks from Rapping with Paul White for free as well. Just head over to Paul White Music where you can find the link to download the three tracks or pre-order the album. I've ordered my copy and I highly recommend you do the same!

Jamie XX - Far Nearer / Beat For

Closer than close, closer than you can ever imagine....

I know that here at Secret Peter we already featured Far Nearer back in 2010 but we thought this would be a perfect time to admit to our readers that we have a slight man crush on Jamie XX, and we don't care who knows it!

Jamie's recent productions have been impeccable, from his snare infested remix of Adele to his incredible reworking of the late Gil Scott Heron’s final studio album I’m New Here. There seems to be no stopping Jamie and now with the release of his first solo single via Numbers it seems he has no intention of lowering the standard.

Far Nearer is a beautifully constructed calypso infused club banger, perfectly timed for the creeping signs of summer. On the flipside the silentone brings us back into the cold and harshness of winter with the sinister Beat For. This track is stripped back bass music at its best, with its metallic drums, pumping bass line and ominous rising chords designed to defecate over any willing dancefloor (yes that’s right I said defecate).

Far Nearer / Beat For is out now via Numbers

Listen to and download Far Nearer / Beat For below:

Dauwd - Could It Be/Shimmer

Change you heart, look around you. Change your heart, it will astound you....

These days trudging through my emails after a long day at work has become somewhat of a chore but now and again you receive one that crops up from nowhere to pleasantly surprise you.

Last week I received an email from Alex Clap of Pictures Music with the opening line ‘Got an absolutely brilliant one for you here!’ I knew this was going to be an email worth reading. The email was to introduce me to the sounds of a little known producer named Dauwd. Not much is known about Dauwd apart from that his real name is David Hilali and he currently presides in Liverpool. What I do know is the good people at Pictures Music are offering up two tracks from the upcoming producer in exchange for nothing but your measly email address. If you are feeling generous you can ‘pay what you want’ for the two tracks which I’m sure the Pictures folk would definitely appreciate as a small token of goodwill for all their hard work introducing us to excellent artists such as Koreless, Lapalux and Dark Sky.

Bringing together the future boogie swing of Floating Points and a jittery two step Koreless vibe beautifully, Could It Be is the made for the floor track of the two, whilst Shimmer sees Dauwd flexing his ambient soothing style, reminiscent of Scotland’s own Boards of Canada. Essential listening!

There will be a vinyl release from Dauwd around August of this year via Pictures but until then listen and download to the tracks below and help spread the word!

Zomby - Natalia's Song

The foulest stench is in the air, the funk of forty thousand years....

In music these days it seems that your style and sense of fashion are sometimes more important than your actual output but there are still some producers out there that let their music do the talking, one of these producers is Zomby.

A very secretive and mysterious character Zomby has become one of the UK’s finest underground producers. Without the use of clever marketing and media buzz Zomby has gripped the world’s electronic music lovers with intrigue and talent alone. After releasing his debut rave inspired LP Where were you in 92 and several singles and EP’s such as One Foot Ahead Of The Other and the beautiful Digital Flora Zomby has finally announced the release of his latest album Dedication on 4AD Recordings. Not only has Zomby gripped the general public with his eerie productions but it also seems that his peers have taken notice of his forward thinking style with Zomby remixing the likes of Martyn and Animal Collective to name but a few.

Dedication is to be released on the 11th July 2011 but until then Zomby has offered up an incredible single in the form of Natalia’s Song which was first featured back in 2010 in a guest mix from Kode 9 and Burial for Mary Anne Hobbs’ final Radio 1 show.

Natalia’s Song is the first single to be lifted from Dedication which Zomby himself describes as ‘a dedication to someone much loved and missed’. Obviously you can tell that Zomby must have lost someone dear to him recently and just listening to 'Natalia’s Song' you can hear his sadness. Drenched in melancholy and grief the track is muffled with white noise and ambience which is wrapped around the rising chords, with the sampled female vocal only adding to the sorrow.

Natalia’s Song is available now via 4AD on a strictly limited one sided 10”.

Listen to Natalia’s Song below:

Hidden Place - Producers and Beat Makers Wanted

All this time I've been making dens and I'm still making them now....

Down at Secret Peter we love new and exciting music and we have been thinking of a way to broadcast our love of new sounds to the world and we believe we have come up with the answer; the answer is a Hidden Place.

Hidden Place is going to be a new radio show/podcast dedicated to young emerging producers from across the globe committed to the future sound of music. But for Hidden Place to work we need you to get in contact. If you are a producer or know a producer that you think we have got to hear, get in touch. We want to cover a wide variety of styles from Bass, Garage, Dubstep and Electronica. Anything that matches the Secret Peter ethos of fresh electronic vibes.

Please send your tracks with a little info about yourself to place_hidden@yahoo.co.uk and if we like what we hear you could be finding yourself in a Hidden Place soon. You can also send your tracks to our Soundcloud drop box at http://soundcloud.com/hidden-place-1

But please remember without you this will not work, so if you think you're the next FlyLo or Burial get in touch and help us to make this happen.

To get the creative juices flowing here is a track from Secret Peter favourite o0o00:

Burial - Street Halo EP

Pretty Girls Make Graves....

A few weeks ago my prayers were answered when I came home to discover the release of the new 12” between electronic music’s Holy Trinity; Four Tet, Burial and Thom Yorke collaborating on the incredible tracks Ego and Mirror. I was just coming to terms with this dream line up when a week later it was sprung on me whilst listening to Benji B’s interview with Hyperdub head honcho Kode 9 that Burial was to release his first solo EP in 4 years on Monday; it was then that I knew that there is a god.

Burial has carved out his own distinct sound, so distinct that after 10 seconds of listening to a track you can instantly recognise that it’s a Burial production, and this EP only confirms this. The wooden percussion, foggy white noise infused atmospheres and heartbreaking vocal samples are all still there but the distinct 2 step rhythms from his earlier productions seem to have been phased out.

The title track Street Halo sounds like post apocalyptic club music; with its driving mechanical beat pulsing bass line and trademark haunting vocals. The secretive producer seems to have taken house music and twisted it with his trademark murky, dystopian sound. NYC sees Burial take the pace down a notch; bringing the emotion drenched vocal to the forefront of the track to float over the beautiful yet understated atmosphere. On first listen this track didn’t really stand out for me but the more and more I listen to it the more I love it. If Burial was to produce R&B it would sound like NYC. Last up is the incredible Stolen Dog which finishes off the release beautifully. Based around a simple synth line Burial layers the track with ambience and soul that is so subtle that you almost don’t realise it’s there, it just washes over you and before you know it the EP has finished.

I cannot recommend this EP enough; since its release I can’t remember a day where I haven’t listened to it. Although I had to wait for four years I would gladly wait another four for a release as good as this.

Street Halo is available now physically and digitally via Hyperdub Records.

Jacques Greene - Another Girl

No one needs a woman, like I need you....

Welcome one and all to the sounds of Jacques Greene. Jacques is a 20 year old producer based in Montreal and affiliate of the mighty Glasgow based label LuckyMe. The first time Mr. Greene appeared on the Secret Peter radar was after hearing his sublime remix of Cassie’s It Must Be Love; the young producer giving the original a laid back house groove to compliment Cassie’s R&B soaked vocal. After a bit of research we stumbled across his first 12” release, Baby (I Don’t Know What You Want) taken from the Night Slugs Allstars compilation. This is when we started to get really excited.

Then late in 2010 LuckyMe dropped his killer The Look EP; merging his love of 2-step, R&B, UK funky and deep techno Jacques unleashed 4 tracks of unadulterated party pleasure. We didn’t think that The Look could be topped but then we heard Another Girl. This track has been on heavy rotation ever since its first listen and it seems to have made quite an impression already. Nipping down to my local record store the incredible Piccadilly Records I was told that all copies of Another Girl had sold out that day with the bloke behind the counter asking “you didn’t happen to listen to Gilles Peterson’s show this week as well did you?”. So it seems taste maker and all round good egg Gilles Peterson has noticed this lad’s talent as well.

Another Girl is another heart string pulling R&B house stomp with Jacques trademark swirling synths and 2 step influenced beats, cutting and looping the vocal from Ciara’s Deuces to devastating effect. This is one of Secret Peter’s tunes of 2011 so far, no qualms.

Another Girl is available now via LuckyMe with remixes from Braiden, Mark Flash, Machinedrum and Koreless.

Thom Yorke - Low End Theory

The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear...

With the news breaking yesterday that Thom Yorke, Four Tet and Burial have collaborated together on a split 12" released on the 21st of March, I think every electronic music geek's prayers were answered.

Four Tet previewed both tracks during a back to back session with Floating Points on the UK's finest radio station Rinse FM from 11p.m on Tuesday night. If you have not heard these tracks seek and you shall find, you will not be dissapointed. But as this news has been done to death I am here to spread this amazing video that I found of Thom Yorke's recent DJ set at L.A's premier bass night Low End Theory. I would have traded in my own mother (sorry mum) to have been there, but this will have to do.

As if you thought Thom Yorke couldn't get any cooler. Also check out LA residents Flying Lotus and Gaslamp Killer absolutely loving it.

In the words of the Gaslamp Killer

"Wow, Low End Theory did that just happen?"

J Dilla - Tribute Show

You're gonna need me one day, you're gonna want me back in your arms...

As I'm writing this post it's 20 minutes past midnight on the 11th February 2011. Yesterday marked 5 years since one of Hip-Hop's most prolific and iconic producers sadly passed away; his name was James Yancey a.k.a J Dilla.

To remind ourselves of what a genius Dilla was and to pay respect to this much loved artist, take a listen to Benji B's J Dilla Tribute Show recorded on BBC 1Xtra back in 2006. Benji has also kindly made this show available as a free download (just click on the arrow icon).

If you've never heard of J Dilla this is a good place to start, sit back and enjoy.

Eliphino - Tea Leaf Dancers Remix

If you want to stay then you can be here with me,
But I can't let go of all this love, oh no, so easily...

Here at Secret Peter we try to be your first port of call to find out about new and exciting music and today for your listening pleasure we bring you the next member of our “one’s to watch” list; up and coming producer Eliphino.

Eliphino a.k.a Tom Wrankmore started out DJing at the tender age of 15 and began making his own productions at the age of 17 after getting his hands on a MPC. Whilst starting out his own bedroom productions Tom became resident DJ at Leeds based clubnight Drum Major. DJing mainly Hip-Hop Tom got to ply his trade whilst rubbing shoulders with the likes of producers such as the beat conductor himself Madlib, not bad company for a young budding producer.

Fast forward a couple of years and Eliphino’s track Let Me Love You Forever was included in Gilles Peterson’s excellent Brownswood compilation series and was one of the two tracks chosen to be pressed to vinyl. He also has his own Undivided Whole EP that was released via new and exciting label Somethinksounds.

Since his days starting out experimenting with his MPC, Tom has turned his attentions away from Hip-Hop and has upped the BPM to a more dancefloor friendly tempo. Although there is still an underlying Hip-Hop influence to his productions Let Me Love You Forever is a bongo infused club banger whilst his Undivided Whole EP focuses on a more synth driven garage vibe.

The track I have chosen to showcase Eliphino’s production skills is his reworking of the Flying Lotus track Tea Leaf Dancers. With Tea Leaf Dancers being somewhat of a classic Tom understands that less is more. Sticking with a classic hip-hop beat, he brings the percussion to the front of the track whilst adding a sinister synth line that rises and falls to compliment the original beautifully. He did release this track as a free download via his twitter account @eliphinobeats so seek and you shall find...

Listen to Eliphino’s reworking of Tea Leaf Dancers below:

Koreless - Maria

The battle for middle you....

As it’s the start of a brand new year I believe it only fair to give my readers a heads up on some of my tips for 2011. The first producer who’s caught my eye this year and is definitely one to watch is 19 year old Glasgow resident Koreless.

Although this young producer has yet to officially release any of his material he is already making waves throughout the country. With airplay from Radio 1 and Rinse FM Koreless’ reputation is steadily growing, whilst in clubland his dark hypnotic anthem Up Down Up Down is an essential for any bass orientated DJ. Although it was Up Down Up Down that first got him recognised it is the deeper side of his style that I am more interested in and I believe he feels the same way.

“I’ve always made emotive music, never bangers.”

With the astronomical rise of James Blake and the haunting yet ever present Burial legacy, it seems to me that producers are beginning to explore the more soulful and emotive side of club music and it’s this style that Koreless excels in. He blends Garage and Dubstep to create beautiful, heart breaking anthems more suitable for the post-club gathering, rather than the club itself.

His first release 4D/MTI is released via Pictures Music in March 2011.

Listen to Maria below:
