Album Review: Big Gigantic – Nocturnal

Album Review: Big Gigantic – Nocturnal

“A saxophone?! What the faux this shit is DOPE,” I exclaimed to fellow LiS ragers as Big G threw down a heavy, upbeat dub set at Camp Bisco 9. Dominic Lalli (Producer/Sax) and Jeremy Salken (Drums) are the two Boulder natives that make up Big Gigantic. I’ve been a big fan of Big G ever since my first live experience; their saxophone driven sound along with their more...

On September 13th, the progressive dance band Lotus released their third full-length album on SCI Fidelity Records.

Excision X-Rated Review

Excision X-Rated Review

  It was just about 2 years ago when Lost in Sound first featured Excision of his very own Rottun Records. Back in 2009 Decadent Dizzurt of LiS wrote: "His sound is dubstep, added with some grime and DnB, but his style is deep, dark, hard, bassy [as faux!]." Since then, Excision has come a long way with the same sound as the common denominator, destroying more...

Emalkay – Eclipse

  I found out about Emalkay 3 years ago when I first had listened to some of Caspa's music. So as a musical fiend I dug into the digital crates and did some research to come across Dub Police. Not only had I found more music on Caspa and Emalkay, but was also introduced to Trolley Snatcha, N-Type, The Others and Tes La Rok to name a few. I found a plethora of more...

Deceptikon – Mythology of the Metropolis 12″

From 2003-'04 I must have compiled thirty or forty cassette tapes worth of Cliqhop.fm and Merck Records radio streams in an attempt to learn what I could about the scene that was slowly birthing a new sound and the name I kept coming back to was Deceptikon. The debut Lost Subject LP was a masterpiece of instrumental hip hop rhythms mixed over precisely-glitchy and more...
