The Best of Free Music by Annie Mac

A selection of some of the very best Free Music Monday tracks. All tracks available for free download.

Annie Mac’s January 2013 Soundcloud Tracks

Dysphemic & Miss Eliza ‘Synthetic Symphony’

‘Synthetic Symphony’, is a blend of beautiful lush classical violin and crunchy thick dubstep that only the ever-talented duo of Dysphemic and Miss Eliza could create.
From the Australian Hip Hop influenced ‘Scripture Slickness’ to the orchestral ‘You are your Fathers Daughter’, this release is a complete mashup of genres and chart toppers.
Blossoming in Melbourne, Australia from a kiss in the depths of a drum and bass party, D&E’s obsession with music and each other spawned an outfit built on melodic complexity, slamming drums, violin virtuosity and double time rap. All performed 100% live.
D&E brings us Miss Eliza, a classical violinist perfectly blended over electronic bass music producer Dysphemic. Miss Eliza, with over 40 first prizes under her belt, dominated Australia and Asia’s classical violin circuit in the late 90’s. Now together with Dysphemic, they have fused the ever classical violin melodies into a multitude of genres including Dubstep, DnB and Glitch Hop to
create a unique sound all their own.
One listen to their latest masterpiece ‘Synthetic Symphony’ and you needn’t ask where the future is headed for next level EDM.

The Frim – ‘Bassline Skanka’ EP(preview)

20 year-old DJ / producer The Frim has been extremely busy both on the road and in the studio lately. Currently deep in the midst of the colossal Firepower tour across the US, he is set to release his debut EP on the label of the same name on 20th November, ‘Bassline Skanka’.
The young musician has been making music and toying with different genres since his early teens, but it is in the last two years that The Frim aka Nicholas Friml has found his calling with dubstep and drumstep production. Friml’s intricate and powerful tracks have already been supported by some of bass music’s biggest names such as Flux Pavilion and Bassnectar, as well as Firepower’s head honcho Datsik himself.

Eponymous opener ‘Bassline Skanka’ doesn’t waste any time in getting down to business. Setting the scene with its eerie piano chords, ticking hi-hats and warped vocals, it quickly spirals out of control as the stomping drums battle it out with a fierce bass drop. Up next, The Frim switches things up on ‘Perfect Score’. Opening in a blare of sirens and crashing percussion, the tightly coiled production delivers a deadly wrecking ball swing. A remix of ‘Perfect Score’ from Firepower alumnus Getter also features on the EP, taking it in to new territory with his signature gutteral bass.

Continuing to bring the heat, ‘Error’s sparse rhythm anchors the juddering bass line as it rips through the track. The clipped ‘error’ vocal sample becomes a key component in the fabric of the track, creating tension and suspense throughout. Concluding the EP on a different note, ‘Drop It’ ups the speed for a manic drumstep workout. Unleashing a flurry of pounding drums and grimy bass, The Frim switches up the tempo half way through, dropping it back down for the second drop as he throws everyone off guard.

Quickly proving himself as a unique and talented DJ and producer, at just 20 years old, The Frim is most definitely one to watch!

Pedro 123 – Slush EP – Get Some(Listen)

In between running a taste-making music blog and club night of the same name the label arm of Get Some presents its fifth release, the Slush EP, from the precocious talent that is South-London’s own Pedro 123. After a flurry of groundwork over the past year having remixed tracks for Trim, MIK, Lakosa & iO and Starkey it’s evident that his passion for Grime and Garage is the stimulus for his tracks. It’s no surprise then, that the 18-year-old has already received praise and multiple spins from Radio 1’s Skream & Benga, Dirtybird’s French Fries and Rinse FM’s Roska, Brackles and Monki for his well-informed approach to his productions.

Title track Slush sees playful Zomby-esque synths teased over a thumping kick drum which acts as the skeleton of track whilst groove-laden drums interject for some off-kilter rhythmic patterns. Utilizing a selective sound palette, the raw textures and shape-shifting percussion compliment the minimalist aesthetic of the track and make for an intriguing A-side.

On the other side Jetpack Joyride benefits greatly from descending synth chords that are accompanied by a barrage of Eski-influenced kicks and snares. Whilst the track is slightly more urgent and unrestrained than the A-side it’s anchored by a heavily swung Garage drum pattern that gives it an old-school feel.

Remix duties come courtesy of highly-revered Bassline producer and Unknown to the Unknown signee, Checan, who takes the track back to ’95 on his reinterpretation. With a euphoric intro that evolves into crashing 4×4 drums, chopped Reggae vocals and sublow basslines the memorable synth-work of the original remains but with the addition of melancholic chords in the breakdown.

 

As London’s ever-evolving musical landscape ploughs on this addition to the melange sees a young producer who sticks firmly to his roots and adds a refreshing spin whilst doing so. With Pedro 123’s refined ear and multi-faceted music inspirations the release of the Slush EP sees him top off a landmark year with some of most accomplished work to date.
