Daedelus & Jogger - Friends of Friends, Vol. 1

2009; 6 tracks

This is a really great EP with three tracks each of idm/electronic artist Daedelus and up-and-coming experimental/indie group Jogger. Daedelus' approach to hip-hop is slightly laid-back, but this EP features the amazing track "LA Nocturn," as well as an Elliot Lipp re-mix of the track. Jogger is virtually unclassifiable, but their electronic mixed with metal tracks found here are enticing indeed. It's highly enjoyable and even beautiful at times.

Here's a nicely made video of Jogger's track "Nephicide" which is, for obvious reasons, my favorite on the EP.

Yacøpsæ - Tanz, Grozny, Tanz...

2007; 25 tracks

Yacøpsæ was formed in August 1990 in Hamburg, Germany.

I really like this album, but that might just be because of "Frost."

Magrudergrind - Magrudergrind

2009; 16 tracks

I used to listen to a hell of a lot of grindcore and powerviolence back in the early years of my Last.fm. I was really into Nasum and Martyrdöd, but I came across some incredible stuff that I almost forgot about, like Magrudergrind. I'm on my old computer so it's all here for me to sift through... ANYWAY.

Magrudergrind is a grindcore/powerviolence group from District of Colombia. As a respected grindcore group who create meaningful and incredible music, Magrudergrind's self-titled is nearly unprecedented in the world of powerviolence. The first track might be my favorite grindcore track in the world, too.
