What’s on the Viral Radio radar
Every month we will update you with what is currently on our radar. In the near future we will compile a playlist at nalden.net. Here are this month’s artists:
1. Kuedo
Probably the strongest debut of 2010. Vivid synthetic melodies, robotic drum patterns and haunting basslines. His new E.P. Starfox will be released on Planet Mu in March. Welcome home Jamie Vex’d.
2. Stagga
Is in the vivid magenta realm of Kuedo, James Blake and Slugabed. Combines a forceful rave energy with gravity defying frequency shifts. Involved with Berlin’s Sirius nights, together with Doshy.

3. Pixelord
Moscow producer with a strong video game aesthetic. There’s some Joker, some Rustie, and some Sonic the Hedgehog. And with Ol and Lapti, Moscow seems to be building a strong scene.

4. Baths
We don’t know much about this young man, but we were introduced to him by our good friend Matthew David of Leaving Records and Brainfeeder. His album ‘Baths’ has not been released yet, but will stir up the already rich electronic music scene in Los Angeles.

5. Loops Haunt
Another friendly introduction, this time by Ned Beckett of Little Big in Berlin. After Rustie, Hudson Mohawke and Kode9 he is another Scottish producer that is taking the world by storm. We wonder what is in their water. His much anticipated ‘Impact Omnihammer E.P’. has just been released on Black Acre. Loops Haunt will play alongside Rustie on Viral Radio in March.

Viral Radio presents Amsterdam
Friday 8 January 2010 will be the first Viral Radio of the new decade. In the new year, the Amsterdam vehicle for well tempered drum machines will investigate the musical identities of 6 cities that are part of the viral networks of experimental bass and beat music creation and distribution.
Theses cities are: 1. Amsterdam (January); 2. Glasgow (March); 3. Bristol (May); 4. London (August); 5. Sydney (October); 6. Los Angeles (December).
On the Amsterdam Edition local wonderboys of bleep hop Zwart Licht will perform live, with the support of their producers FS Green and Sir OJ. Viral Radio veteranAardvarck – DNA testing should one day prove the theory he is the father of theGaslamp Killer – will join hosts Juha & Cinnaman to cover the spectrum of bleeps and bass in Amsterdam.
Viral Radio will continue to do regular events in the months in between, and radio shows every two weeks on VPRO’s 3voor12, bringing the next level in computated acoustic stimulants.
