Ikonika (Hyperdub/London)
Female representative of the Hyperdub record label, London’s most iconic sound after the Big Ben. “From the vantage point offered by her first album, you can trace the distinctive quality of Sara Abdel-Hamid’s productions all the way from her debut 12-inch, 2008’s Please. But while her four releases to date have all boasted unusual hooks that snag your attention, parts of Contact, Want, Love, Have feature synth-painted soundscapes into which it’s possible to disappear completely.” BBC

The third show is online at 3voor12 now and up for download, podcast and stream. A bit messy in the beginning, but that is what you get when swine flu breaks out in times of recession. Some recent dubstep releases by Mala, Coki, Kromestar, Skream – on Deep Medi, and not Hyperdub as I say in the show – and Ikonika in there, and new beats by Joker, Mr. Oizo, Danny Breaks, Ras G and Monopoly. Have a listen and let us know what you think.

Each month we drop names of artists we are currently listening to and working with before they appear on flyers or on the show. This is the second installment (see the first one), and of course most of you will know the names we name. However, if you do not know them, then this is one good archive to find music of our age.
