Zep’s post-punk pop-esque treatment of the ever passionate Kaer Trouz is outstanding.

Snowflake’s remix of Earritation featuring Patronski, Sackjo22, KaraSquare and Admiral Bob is an out of this world hip-hoppin’ joyride. An instant CCmixter classic from some of CCmixter’s most talented.

Scomber’s take on Panu’s “Da Brum” is a no frills tight motha. Tight playing and tight editing. A textbook example on how less truly is more when an accomplished producer sets his mind into it.

This hypnotic glitchy spoken word piece urges repeat listens. Spinningmerkaba’s words and delivery reel you in. Then he mixes up some magic with panu’s acoustic guitar and an infectious beat. Give a listen!

wrenchbiscuit’s powerful dystopian electronic post-blues remix of Snowflake sets up her Free Hearts pell in a dynamic way that illustrates exactly what ccmixter has done! Totally compelling.

ccMixter newcomer, earritation, lays down ambient groove that is smooth and seductively chill featuring Darkroom’s loop skills. “Late Nigtht Tribe” would fit on any Groove Salad playlist, setting the stage for the Spirograph Soundscape Room in the Big Fest.

A deep electronic groove and a haunting atmosphere by earritation extracts something mighty potent out of the lyrics and the vocal delivery (by Hektor Thillet and Pelgio respectively). Big bravo!

If you want to know why I love Ccmixter so much just listen to Keytronic’s delicate remix of Ciggiburns Marked. All the instruments drums, upright, piano and the like, are perfectly placed throughout the piece. One simply beautiful arrangement!

The band is tight and Unreal_dm’s guitar sound on his down home rock and roll treatment of Snowflake is too good to miss!

This track is as good as any urban contemporary track I’ve heard in ages, no make that all year. From concept to the last dip of the last fader the writing, vocals, & production are concise, focused and a treat for the ears. Let’s recognize for a moment this woman is one of the best ‘under the radar’ singer/songwriters among us. Congrats Kara, as far as I’m concerned you made the big time a long time ago. Don’t ever think it
doesn’t matter… it does.

Grab your headphones and head over to the Spirograph Soundscape Room for a special audio treat courtesy of the delightful jazzy Speck (composition, piano, and synth). You’ll hear Martijn de Boer’s neat-o beer bottle percussion and bass. Annabloom provides fabulous additional percussion and piano. And the perfectly appropriate vocals are from the ultra-cool, smoky-voiced Panu.

The Andromeda Theatre will soon go dark, but right now the lighters are out, Alex is shredding under the blistering gel lights as the dry ice wafts up. And you? You’re headbanging furiously, as spinningmerkaba belts his all into the microphone stand with the bandana tied to it.
