Jumping Back Slash - JBS004

With this fourth and latest self-titled Bandcamp EP, Cape Town electronic musician Jumping Back Slash continues to refine his captivating "afrotronical space music" aesthetic. If you're familiar with JBS's past work, this new set of tracks won't throw you for a loop. All four are laced with tribal percussion, soulful vocal samples, progressive synth washes, and propulsive techno beats--and they're more danceable than ever! Happy listening!

Wildernessking- "Rubicon" / "Utopia"

Here's two tracks of hard, melodic black metal from Wildernessking. From what I understand, this group actually hails from South Africa, which kinda puts a damper on the snowy, heavily wooded images that usually come with black metal. Still, that doesn't stop the quartet from channeling the relentless blast beats, romantic melodies, and harsh vocals that make the genre great.

The two tracks streaming above, "Rubicon" and "Utopia," are set to drop on Wildernessking's forthcoming album, the Writing of Gods in the Sand. Look for it on January 23rd.
