Ext - One of the Moments (2015)

I would like to present a LP made by Sergey Mogilevsky an Ukrainian music producer. It belongs to a music style called UK Garage which I haven’t presented on this blog so far. When you play somebody a track like the ones on this album he will probably compare them to Burial. That can be a compliment, but on the other hand you could get “Another Burial copycat?” reaction. In this case I think that we can say that it’s a compliment. Twelve tracks and each one filled with emotions, pitched vocals and rhythmic drums. As I’m writing this I am trying to pinpoint the best piece, but it’s rather hard. I didn’t have an occasion to listen to it walking around at night in the rain which is what I usually tend to do with this kind of music, so maybe that’s the reason. Maybe we will go with the "tempus fugit" one.

bvdub - Today He Felt Life (from "All is Forgiven")

Another week, another post, another bvdub’s album.  Recently I’ve had an urge to listen to some relaxing music, so obvious choice here is something from Brock Van Wey. The other day, or evening to be precise, I listened to his tracks from various albums for about 2-3 hours, quite an experience I must say. I was sitting comfortably in my chair, looking at the sky, unfortunately through my window and not in the open, drinking tea and all that put together created an amazing atmosphere and a wonderful evening. “Today He Felt Life” is one of the pieces that I own it to. It lasts almost 32 minutes, so you can guess that it’s not an ordinary track, and I perceive it as a two-part song, the second one being the superior one, but hey, it wouldn’t exist if not for the first!
