The Sowl Files: The Lost Electronic Sessions

This is a collection of ghosts from the Sowl period (2005-2007). Sowl consisted of me and Sol (who is now one half of Noisebud), and we made electronica (sometimes quite experimental) in all it’s incarnations.
Click the pic, here or the download link on the player above to head over to my bandcamp page (might put it up on Soundcloud as well, but it’s hella slow at the moment) where you can download the whole thing for free. Feel free to share it with your friends!

Edit: It’s now up on Soundcloud as well.

I’ve had these tracks (and many more) just sitting on my harddrive without knowing what to do with them, so I finally decided to pick out a few and just throw em out there… They’re not doing anyone any good hidden away here.

I’ve not done any extra mixing or arranging on em, I decided to leave em as they were, for good or bad. This doesn’t mean they’re bad or in bad quality tho, just saying. Anyway, if someone really fancies one of the tracks I could of course fix it up a little, but at this point it’s not gonna happen. The exception are the two bonus tracks, which are pretty decently mixed and arranged (featuring Sol aka Sunflake on vocals).

Some of these have been uploaded on a couple sites under my other alias, Kvartersakuten, but since most know me as magOwl I figured I’d just put this out under that name. Plus that was the name I went under in Sowl.. so there you have it.

There’s a varied mix of styles on here, breakcore, lo-fi, old jungle ish, electronica, glitch, dubstep, techno and so on (no Hip-Hop tho, sorry kids, I’ll get that going later on this winter/spring). So hopefully there’s a little something something for everyone.

Easy.

Strange Famous Forum Collaboration

Submitted a beat for a Strange Famous forum collaboration a week or two ago, and now it’s all done and available for anyone to grab.

It’s free and was made by SFR Forum regulars (and myself heh), put together and organized by AdamBomb, thanks man, turned out good. It’s mostly hip-hop, but not exclusively, some other genres represented as well and most of it got vocals and all that jazz.

So head over and pick it up. Here’s a direct link to the thread.

A couple of blurbs from the contributors.. (you can read all of em in the thread on SFR Forum..)

Mikal kHill vs AdamBomb – Buy My Shit
“It’s silly, and I threw it together in no time. It’s like a
hiphop sequel to my fuck a ron song I did as the Wooden Dickz
a few years ago.” – kHill
“A lot of forum members get name dropped in here” – AdamBomb

AdamBomb – Anna Log
“I made this using old analog synths and tape echo effects (no soft synths or vsts!). Retro futuristic dirty type sheeee-it.” – AB

Rolling Blackout (medicineman) – A Toast to Oblivion
“’scalled “A Toast To Oblivion”…Rolling Blackout is the group…”
“a certain pessimistic take on the destiny of man proceeding from
apathy to protest to grim acceptance to celebration”

Domestic Robot (kritikal) – A Wavelength
“Domestic Robot is an artist from Ann Arbor, MI mixing electronic and acoustic
instruments with boom bap break beats and heartfelt vocals.

Atari Blitzkrieg – August Plush

Atari Blitzkrieg… One of the most active & productive people I’ve ever met, put out a free compilation a couple of days ago, August Plush. It’s a cross section of his many EP’s, plus some unreleased and new tunes. So if you’re not familiar with him, head over to his homepage (iamsubstance.com), sign up for his newsletter, and grab the 34 track compilation.

Featuring production by Atari, Krohme, Bronze Nazareth, Moka Only and a bunch of others, with guest appearances by Royce Da 5′9, Breez Evahflowin, Vast Aire, Sadat X, Louis Logic and LMNO… to name a few.  It should be a nice starting point and a good first glance into his world. At the moment he got several new projects going, one with yours truley, which will see the light of day later on this fall.

Did I mention it was free…? Check it out folks!
