Subsequent - Technical Cell Groove ep

2010-07-28T07:26:00.000-07:00

Ladies and Gentlemen, Longreach proudly presents our first solo release, the truly marvelous Technical Cell Groove EP by Subsequent. A gripping minimal electronic parcel that sounds a bit like what might be going through the head of an invisible robot falling through an infinite tungsten drainpipe. Also, if you play it backwards, you'll hear a recipe for a really ripping lentil soup!
Click on the music page to possess our second release forthwith. Next up, releases from Lipsis, Mantle, Casio, Beams and Dolo all coming soon. Start a collection.

When it comes to lovely summer grooves, there's only one Longreacher for the job, Theo Krish, the sunniest man alive. Grab your speakers, hang them out the window, and go and sit in the sunshine and soak up this mix. (But do please remember to wear sun lotion and drink lots of water. Longreach accepts no responsibility for any kind of sunstroke or blistered noses .)

The Residency at OSMC

2010-05-24T09:39:00.000-07:00

Big Love to everybody who came down to the second night of the Residency at OSMC. If you weren't there, here's some photographic evidence that it actually happened.

There's Casio Movement, (above) doing his thang on the CDJs and Vinyl. Also present, was the one and only Giacomo with a brilliantly eclectic mix. We didn't get a shot of him because we were to preoccupied with the listening. You know how it is.

Plus, Longreach originator, Dolo made his Ableton debut. There he is, (above) jamming his little heart out on the MPD, alongside Casio.

And last but certainly not least, we were treated to a tailor-made collage of visuals by Devin. (Yes there was an advert for cigarettes at one point, but we're not being funded by the multinational tobacco giants, honest)

Peep the Facebook for more shots, (courtesy of Ely Noorduijn) See you all next month we hope, we already have big things planned...

2010-05-18T06:28:00.000-07:00

Longreachers on the radio in Poland!

2010-04-12T08:18:00.000-07:00

Check this for a random one. Some DJ's coming out of Wroclaw, Poland have been bigging up Canterbury's beatmaking talent. They've been blogging about us already and will be playing some of our tunes on Radio Luz, 91,6FM, Thursday, 10pm GMT. Incase you're not about in Poland at that exact moment, the show will be up here soon after.

Peep the blog here...
http://bmbxxx.blogspot.com/2010/04/lovely-beatsnpieces.html

Of course it is in Polish so here's a vague translation from the guys...
Canterbury is the city in the county of Kent, the capital city for Church of England.. That's probably one of those city's around England that we could say that it's a "lovely place". 42 258 citizens, 23,54 km² and at least 3 talented producers.
Could surfing on soundcloud cause sickness? If so - I advice you to get sick! By people being followed by our favorite artists we are able to discover whole lot of new, interesting music. That's how I discovered the new beat generation scene in Canterbury - thanks to Dam Mantle! The stuff made by three producers that beats could be found below are really worth listening. These beats sounds so fresh... just imagine Paul White, Mono/Poly, Dam Mantle and a little bit of skweee merged in one... and that's the sound of today's Canterbury :)
