Bio
.. ........ .... Trip hop, experimental hip hop, downtempo, slinky gritty beats... Suspicious is a division of Hive Records. .... Coming in 2008: .. ...... .... ....& new albums from Leaf and Saltillo!.... ...... ..Suspicious Records compilation ..Broken Nightlights.. CD [sus003]....Featuring Saltillo, Leaf, Sunday Munich, Opgave, Beauty's Confusion, Moshe, Detritus, Lacunae, Atonalis, Arc Lab, DJ Inzi, Clover, Antenne, Ognihs, and More. Limited edition of 1000. Check out the ..Listen.. page at Suspicious Records and hear longer clips of every track on the CD. .. (Released Sept 30, 2006) .. ...... ...... OUT NOW! ..Saltillo - ..Ganglion.. [sus002].. .... ........ .... ..Track after track, Saltillo combines the different elements listed into something memorable and moving. No song feels lost or over-similar to the others yet all are unmistakably part of the same whole - even as it rolls from the mild Aphex Twinisms of "Backyard Pond" to the elegiac "Grafting". This is an album that deserves mainstream recognition as it would be lapped up by DJ Shadow fans and those unmoved by hip-hop's lack of emotion or by rap vocals... ..- CONNEXION BIZARRE.. .. ..Profound is a dangerous, often stupid word to use when describing a pop record; it fits for Ganglion, and it is amazing that it does so well for a debut... ..- MUSIC EMISSIONS.. .. .... OUT NOW! ..Leaf - ..Made Into Itself.. [sus001].. .... ............ ..Intelligent without being pretentious, dark without being comic, Leaf picks up the rainy-night trip hop mantle last carried by DJs Shadow and Signify. Thankfully, he strays away from second rate emulation by overlooking traditional hip hop and delving into glitchy breaks, jungle-inspired sequencing, and a uniquely bleak ambience... ..- URB MAGAZINE.. .. ..Leaf's experimentation with cello, acoustic guitar and other instruments makes their motivated compositions fiercely interesting... ..- XLR8R MAGAZINE.. .. ..It's like driving in a big U.S. city and everytime you change direction, the music changes as well. This is hard to grab; but urban, obscure, dark, gritty and dangerous at the same time. Be careful, not recommended to those who are afraid in the dark or feel uncomfortable alone... ..- PHOSPHOR MAGAZINE.. ...... ....www . suspicious-records . com.... .... .. ........
