Paco Sala
it's a eurotrash dream and i'm loving it. paco sala is the alter-ego of konntinent's antony harrison and anyone familiar with his past work will be quite surprised by this turn of events. "radial sundown" is an afterhours vapor trail through italo mazes and darkened alleys. swirling electronics are matched by smooth beats and pop-infused hymns. harrison bounces to the underbelly, always keeping something sinister just off-screen.

Kuedo
Jamie Vexd launches his new Kuedo project on Planet Mu with the blazing synthtrails of the "Starfox EP". As you're sure aware, Jamie was instrumental in the early development of dubstep with his seminal Subtext EP's and the "Degenerate" album, so it's intriguing to witness him digitally morph into the Kuedo sound persona. As his more recent productions have proved, he's moved towards a lurching hiphop based style, taking cues from the likes of Flying Lotus, Mike Slott, Ikonika and Rustie to immerse himself in a complex cacophony of computer game melodies and digitized electro-acoustics.
