Louis Haiman’s productions debuted on Transmat’s Time:Space comps, and he has since gone on to start his own label fwdthought to release similarly minded atmospheric melodic techno (including Pittsburgh’s own Chris Schubert’s excellent debut long player). He also had a track on Arne Weinberg’s AW-Recordings compilation “Viewpoints Chapter 1” earlier this year. Louis released two…

Some Random Things
I’ve got a bunch of really good records recently that I haven’t had much time to write about until now. This is covering from when I came back from vacation and on, I think! On the new tip, the only things I’ve picked up recently were the newest Omar-S and Luke Hess 12″s on Fxhe….
Interview – Reggie Dokes (Psychostasia Recordings)
Here at ISM, we like to give coverage to artists we respect and admire. It’s been a while since we last had an interview up, so here is the next installment. I caught up via email with DJ and producer Reggie Dokes, owner of Psychostasia Recordings, to talk music, the “D”, and being in a…
Still Music Feature on Resident Advisor
Speaking of stuff for RA, my profile on Still Music has been up since yesterday without my realizing it! Still has released some absolute belters, and Jerome is a hell of a dude (and a hell of a deejay as well). Check out that mix he did for the piece of all Still releases, it…
Reflections
The last month or so has been a real blur for me. After spending two straight weeks on the beach in (beautiful!) Corolla, NC, I had only one week before school started up for the semester yesterday. This meant that I was nearly completely isolated from music for a couple weeks, which means that I…

Guest Mix: Drrtyhaze – Chicago1
This one is not a new mix, but one that I have been enjoying so much for two years that I felt it needed to be out there again. Even though they hail from New York City and not Chicago, Drrtyhaze nail the 80’s classic jacking vibe perfectly. From the more obvious classics to some…
Sleeping Alone – Mix
Haven’t posted in a while, so thought may as well use this post to throw up my first mix for the site. Not gonna say much about it, its culled from old and new italo, a few edits and some other random bits n’ bobs from the early 80’s. Runs at just over an hour….
West African Heat
First off, apologies for being so quiet recently, but a recent move has kept me away from the decks and GTA4 has kept me from doing anything remotely constructive for the last month or so đŸ˜‰ Anyway, this is a belated audio companion to my earlier post on the recent series of excellent compilations on…
