Swear on my life, I thought about New Jersey-based DJ/producer Physical Therapy last night. Not in the creepy personal way that might sound, but about his remix of Alicia Keys and how it will (literally) reverberate with me forever. I also thought about how a debut release was long overdue and wondered what label would finally bring his music to the physical world. Well, this morning I found out that the wait is almost over and that the lucky label is FACT Magazine’s best label of 2011 - Hippos In Tanks. Physical Therapy’s Safety Net EP is out June 19, 2012.
Kingdom, one of my absolute favorite producers of original material and remixes alike, gives Fatima Al Qadiri’s “Corpcore” a faithful re-work with shuffling percussion and an atmospheric dropout around the 2:30 mark. The original Genre-Specific Xperience EP is a hauntingly beautiful piece of work that can still be had here.
