Kinnego Flux are a funk and soul based electronic duo residing in Belfast. Brian Greene and David Baxter fuse vocals, bass guitar, synths, horns, drums and electronics to create a mix of styles ranging from soulful melodic instrumentals to upbeat, p-funk-esque workouts.
They have played various shows and festivals around Europe and have supported some high profile artists such as Jamie Lidell and Luke Vibert.
Recently they released a 12” single with Boxcutter - “A Familiar Sound” which gained recognition from people like Mary Anne Hobbs, Paul Rose (Hotflush), Laurent Garnier & also featured on the new Boxcutter album released on Planet-Mu.
Brian and David run a recording studio and are involved with improvised electronics for art exhibitions.
They also host a monthly jam night where they play in a five piece funk outfit.
David also makes electronic music under the name Filaria.
One afternoon, in the waiting room of a needle exchange, I watched afternoon telly and bashed out four new tracks. Individually, in one take, I recorded them live onto tape.
Outside, methadone addicts argued ferociously about hardcore lager and fed a dog raw steak. Inside, an over sensitive monster vented at the imagined scent of a tofu passanda.
Acroplane now present you a small slice of my life, down and around BN1 4GB.
The brothers John and Paul Healy, collectively known throughout the world as Somatic Responses, are still native residents of a small industrial mining community snugly located in the southwest region of Wales. Somatic Responses are into complex dislocated & broken beats, distorted intelligent constructions, fascinating sonic structures, force and sweetness intertwined.
If their early productions were of the hardcore and techno kind, and while they later moved on to breakcore territories, Somatic Responses have now embraced more up-to-date and modern sounds and tackled the current dubstep sound that has taken their native UK by storm, and are ready to out-bass pretty much everybody else.
Mercury is definitely an important release for SR as it displays their progression further into dubstep & it's ever mutating siblings. A shape of things to come AND some of their best material for some time.

Matthew Peters (aka Mad EP) has been influenced by Bach's 'Well-Tempered Klavier' and Shostakovich's '24 preludes and fugues' for years, and so decided to do something similar for the breakbeat.
Like Bach & Shostakovich, originally the project was supposed to be a composition exercise to compose a breakbeat in every major & minor key, but soon it really hooked him and he ran with it, trying to offer as much diversity as he could while still having the group make sense as a whole.
heeey :) how are you 2?? so you everything easy by the way, the way back from here? hope to see you guys again somewhere! greetings daniela, riet and chico :)
Koen Park gets all political in his old age ;) Don't let that put you off tho! He's delivered another amazing record free of charge
"The idea that our lives revolve around computers so much is depressing and a little soul destroying. Inanimate objects essentially controlling what should be the animate. The more we get into the internet social cycle, the less we actually are part of a healthy society. This is the personal level.
Government, poorly run as is nearly always the case, controls us just the same...they push us down into inanimate objects, ostracized from each other with the apathetic burdens of crippling taxes, war and greed. This is the social level.
I want to walk out my door and just hug a stranger, not facebook with someone I knew when I was 5. I want to see non-violent protest, a people intelligent and strong and able to stand up for their individual rights. And most of all, I want to see people KNOW their rights and individuality, to get out there and live a little more. I want the people who go out and do this to include me." - Koen Park 16/03/09 21:02 Tokyo Time
ACP046: Space Dimension Controller - Unidentified Flying Oscillator - includes remixes by Boxcutter, Filaria and Monolith
Outer space.
A time after the past and before the future, a rogue astro bandit named Jack Tiraquon has uncovered a relic from the long lost vaults of groove, floating freely in space.
The creator, known as Mr. 8040, is said to have been a high ranking Space Dimension Controller in the quadra-sector of the Tiraquon6 security barrier, but legend tells of Mr. 8040 occasionally losing his mind and breaking out in a frenzy of galactic funk. These frenzies were recorded and are now presented to you as the UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OSCILLATOR.

Our newest release from Dave Filaria (Acroplane/Kinnego Flux/Bugklinik).This is an album of mixed styles, some quite recent, some quite old, some in between. They are all generally dancefloorish. It starts with some acid breakbeat, detours into some dubbish step down converters,and finishes with some drum and bass cadet melodic jungle licks...Nice.
