The Field is one mysterious bearded man from Sweden who makes gorgeous, glitchy minimalistic techno. He got signed two years ago to Kompakt and now he’s busting out of his socks with his new album, “From Here We Go Sublime”.
It’s a bunch of beautiful, swirling tracks that make you dance, even though you feel as if maybe your speakers are broken and they’re repeating the same sound over and over again (but, y’know, when it sounds that awesome, who cares?). Strange chunks of singing, oft repeated and twirled, leave you feeling as if you just stepped off a bus and landed in Brazil, instead of two blocks downtown.
He’s up for all sorts of awards, and he’s done his fair share of remixing. His myspace mirrors his minimalist aesthetic, and it makes me want to grow a beard.
hisss MYSPACE!
It is with tremendous sadness that I say goodbye to Malachi McGee, the fellow behind Colloquial Mage. The beloved family member and forum celebrity is leaving on January the 9th for Taiwan, a journey that will last two long years!

Now, I’m not sure if you know who BMSR are. I hear they’re still pretty underground, but I don’t keep up with that sort of thing. If you haven’t had the pleasure of listening, LISTEN.
