“The mix is a sublime 40 minute journey combining DJ and live electronics, distinguished by the warmth and love that radiates from this music. Cio and Dozz had been working on this for a while, and after the recent disaster here, they wanted to give this as a gift for Japan.” mnmlssg
MANTIS is the darkfloor electronica radio show. Since it’s inception back in early 2007 the show continues to push quality sound from unsigned talent as much as established and up&coming producers. A large part of the shows help to promote some of the amazing sound released as netaudio, something most shows ignore.
The show currently broadcasts fortnightly on Future Music and is hosted by darkfloor’s main protagonist: DVNT. Every broadcast showcases a producer or label with an exclusive, never-before-heard, made for MANTIS, guest mix. As if that wasn’t enough, each show archive is made available for free download from this very page. Add to that you can grab each show from the ever growing podcast.

- Global Souljah #15.08.2009 hosted by James Barrie Words: An amazing amount of new music has just come my way and it’s my pleasure to start sharing it with you. Kicking off with a fantastic South African musical export Tumi & The Volume, a great new hip hop project with it’s influences more in Afro America than Africa but none the less great stuff. Mary Anne Hobbs, queen of the electronic new school is going to be releasing her latest compilation for Planet Mu in September and I drop two tracks from this gateway into the musical future – the excellent Sunken Foal ‘folktronica’ project from Dublin and the majestic, atmospheric slice of UK Funky from Bristol bad boy Gemmy who actually shares a house with Appleblim and whilst making some quality beats also passes on his production knowledge through his teaching job.
Lobisomem hails from Chicago and is making great uncategorizable (easier to spell than say – just listen to this weeks show!) music, he also runs an excellent blog, with great mixes from the cream of the Chicago musical underground. I also played another track from The Brave New World Of Bernard Fevre and expect more tastes in the coming weeks. Crown City Rockers are a funky fresh five piece hip hop crew from Oakland, check them if you despair at what is classed as hip hop these days, ditto Shafiq Husayn, one third of the boundary pushing Sa Ra Creative Partners crew.
David Baxter is back with some new solo efforts and collaborations, look out for this great young talent from Belfast under his Filaria moniker or with his Kinnego Flux team efforts. My favourite Afro Peruvian electronic fusionists, NovaLima, have just had their last album remixed and the Da Lata rerub is probably the pick of the bunch and I give you a taste of the new Fat Freddy’s Drop album another slice of down under (depending on your gps co-ordinates) reggaefied soulful goodness.
Culture Musical Club are taking East Africa`s Arabian musical heritage, adding Swahili lyrics and a good percussive Afro twist to produce some great culture clash musical goodness and I finish off the show with some great old time gems. Nigerian guitarist Victor Coker comes through with some old time hi-life, Alerth Bedasse & Ivan Chin provide a little Mento gem and Slim Smith shows some of those Jamaican boys sure have soul. (more…)
