BEATnik #38
Derived from the word “beat” and coined by a San Francisco newspaper columnist, “Beatnik” draws its origins from a feeling of being unrefined and uncompromised. Stretch open those ears, they are in for a taste of some new and raw talent.
It involves a sort of nakedness of the mind, and, ultimately, of soul, a feeling of being reduced to the bedrock of consciousness.
- Clellen Holmes, NY Times Magazine, 1952
Soulful Ambience
You guys need to listen to the original as well, Nicolas Jaar’s remix is crazy different!
Nu-Disco
Theatre of Delays is genre-defying, I don’t know to classify them. Nu-Disco will work for now.
Dirty Dance
The combination of the deep, finger-plucking bass and Leona’s musing voice, makes this song scream Hump!
Crinkly Bass
Let the Love and Light tickle your eardrums… you can’t help it, I know…
Get FACED
Well, just let the categorization speak for itself, this song belongs on full blast over a sweat-covered dance floor.
Drum & Bass
NERO returns to their roots with this bass-heavy, fast-tempo’d Thunder-Mama!
