Malibu B & Binalog Frequency

Malibu B

Last month we featured Hungarian SynthWave dreamer Malibu B’s new single ‘Engame’, well not it;s getting a proper release, courtesy of Binalog Productions with the EP including a new dark rework from Binalog Frequency himself.

Binalog’s ‘Return To LA’ version takes the aspects of ‘Endgame’ most suited to spinning on your back on a peice of lino and runs with them. This is kind of dark, moody, Electro that flourished through the likes of Juan Aitkin’s Cryotron briefly before Hip Hop hit the big time and still lurks in the Electro shadows. The Jan Hammer-esque lead line of ‘Endgame’ takes on a whole new dystopian feel when coupled with Binalog’s 808 percussion. All this is driving by a growling, relentless machine beat. If the original is Miami Vice, then this is The Terminator.

Binalog Frequency with Medora & Songdreamer

A while back we wrote about Binalog Frequency’s science fiction breakin’ beats ‘Neon Funk’, now he’s used that track as a starting point for his version of Songdreamer and Medora’s ‘Be On Your Way’.

‘Be On Your Way’ is originally a collaboration between vocalist Songdreamer and hard CORPS’ Clive Pierce’s Medora project that Binalog has worded his Electro magic on. Keeping the Bleep House-esque ghetto bass of ‘Neon Funk’ and lairing it with Songdreamer’s’ vocals (which are slightly reminiscant of one of my favourite voices, Martina Topley-Bird’) makes for an interesting and involving mix. Soulful vocals and rapid fire robo beats? How can that be anything but awesome?

Binalog Frequency’s new single

I make no secret of my overpowering love for early ‘80’s B-Boy Electro, so Binalog Frequency’s new single ‘Street Science (Drop Some DMX)’, is a song after my own heart.

Give me DMX beats, robot basslines and orchestral stabs and I’m happy, luckily ‘Street Science’ rocks all this and more. Add in some Sci-Fi synth effects and an ‘80’s melody and you’ve got a tune that takes me back to days of hurting myself on a sheet of lino down the underpass. Better days…

“Street Science (Drop Some DMX)” is out now on Bandcamp, with the official release coming date 23rd January.

Binalog Frequency’s new track

Some dark future sounds and frantic B-Boy beats right now from Binalog Frequency.

His new tune, ‘Neon Funk’ is a rapid fire slice of Sci-Fi Electro. Old School beats underpin ever evolving and intertwining arpeggios and lush pads. A meticulously programmed and produced track who’s robotic rhythms and Vangelis atmosphere also makes me think of early Warp Records stuff, Bleep House, but with more IDM style beats. great stuff!
