Two juicy items of news from the Warp camp today.  Firstly Squarepusher will be returning with a new album later in 2008.  A sneaky preview can be heard on their myspace here, and the man himself will be performing at both ATP and Manchester’s stupidly massive party ‘The Warehouse Project’.  Find out more info about this on Warp’s website here .

Secondly, the circuit bending, brain boxing, vocal distoring maestro himself, Tim Exile has to be signed to Warp and will be releasing a new album in 2009.

Exciting stuff!

My Downfall (Original Soundtrack) is an album by breakcore artist Venetian Snares. The title is in reference not to an actual soundtrack but rather the soundtrack to Aaron Funk’s downfall. It is said to be a follow-up to the 2005 album Rossz Csillag Alatt Született. Aaron was quoted as saying, “This album has nothing to do with dubstep and very little to do with breakcore.“

If it has anything in relation to Rossz Csillag Alatt Született I am a happy chappy.

Here is more info for the keen: Read the rest of this entry »

Underworld have completed their fifth studio album, Oblivion with Bells with an expected release date of 16th October on Ato Records. The first single from the new album, “Crocodile”, was released on September 5, 2007. An EP entitled Crocodile has also been releases in Japan (lucky people).

A full world tour has been announced to support the new studio album. Currently, tour dates in the United States, Europe, and Japan are scheduled for this fall, with more shows expected in the future.

The single sounds promising and I’m looking forward to checking out the EP when I can get my hands on it.

I have only picked up little snippets here and there about this story and I hope it’s rumours but who knows at the moment…

Snippet 1

Well, MF Doom was a no-show again at last night’s New York-Tokyo Music Festival. This is starting to get commonplace for Doom, but here’s where things suddenly get pretty ominous: Pharoahe Monch came on and held a moment of silence, saying Doom was hospitalized after having a heart attack.

Snippet 2 (this was posted on the Stones Throw message board)

I got your message and I understand what you are saying about falsely reporting DOOM had a heart attack without a shred of evidence, however, I never said that DOOM died of a heart attack. I said that he was hospitalized due to complications of asthma and that it was rumored that it may have been a heart attack. The announcement of the asthma complications came before Pharoah Monch’s performance by Kenny Muhammad who was MCing the show. Then Pharoah Monch came out and had a moment of silence and a prayer for DOOM which everyone did. Somewhere along the lines there was talk of a heart attack but no one including myself ever said DOOM was actually dead.

I am huge fan of Stones Throw and all of their artists especailly DOOM. I still listen to Madvillain all the time and it is one of my all time favorite album. I’ll be seeing Percee P October 7th at Nokia and got my tickets already for the Stones Throw Showcase on December 2nd at the Highline Ballroom.

I apologize for the misunderstanding but I was just reporting what happended at this particular show. I would appreciate it if you could leave this post up so that people that got the wrong impression from my previous post can get the correct news.

Also, can someone let us know what exactly is going on with DOOM???

The message was then deleted by mods of the board.

If the rumours are to be believed we hope you get better soon Doom!
