Malcom Kipe - Off the Joint (Merck) 2005

Well I was going to post an old track by Syndrone… but I got a different Merck record today… the new Malcom Kipe…on the same Miami imprint Merck…

Merck is one of few IDM/Braindance/Experimental/Wutever labels that doesn’t get lost in the technology and releases SONGS, not just cats fuckin about with some plugins on a laptop, making tracks that go no where.

I’m talkin’ proper shit.

Malcom Kipe (Skyler McGlothlin) might be better known as Nautilis from Mu-ziq’s Planet Mu imprint. He’s a cat that I knew back in the day, in college, by way of the whole Denton, Texass laptop scene… I always felt him and another cat Unit3 were the top of the game out there. Still do. Well they’ve both moved on… Skylar now resides in Austin… and is still mad talented and diverse as all hell. Shit you should hear the tracks he never released…

its dudes like this where you curse the fact that it is so god damned hard to make a living making art thats off the mainstream radar… but that’s a whole ‘nother post altogether...

Anyway, here is a new jawn, from his latest album Lit, out on Merck Recordings. Cop that shit, before it is gone. This is some 2000 copies only shit.
