Album: Illuminants
Artist: Luisterwaar
Released: March 2, 2012
Beat heads get ready…hailing from Heerlen, Holland comes a producer with mad talent. He calls himself Luisterwaar and he has a new E.P. available from Saturate Records entitled Illuminants. An entry into the beat scene that is short and sweet. This is a glitch 8bit bass monster! Tracks like “I Love My Gun” with its stuttering bass lines, hyper active claps, and glitches fit nicely with “When I Flew My Vimana” and “Royal Flush” a post Dilla cut with a Jungle twist. Great synth heavy atmospherics blend with dark crunchy beats that crawl at a hypnotizing pace, with a few bright moments chopped up in the mix reminiscent of Onra or Hudson Mohawke to make this a really nice listen. Songs that sound good in all three arenas, from the car, to the club, or through headphones. You can cop Luisterwaar’s new E.P. from the Saturate website, which I suggest you do so now!
