Opening our 2011 mix account with a spatial, left-field mix is young Canadian beatscape-ist, Babe Rainbow. Having impressed with his debut Shaved EP for Warp, and contributing to Tri Angle's Lindsay Lohan tribute comp alongside oOoOO, Oneohtrix Point Never and Laurel Halo, BR is ripe to do big things in 2011.
His sound is an irrepressible mix of roughly carved space gems, all clattering and morphing through a rubbery ether deep within the subconscious. And these introspective sound experiments are set to continue in fine fashion with talks of two more EPs already being discussed for release on the previously mentioned Warp label.
And we decided to let his eclecticism shine on this here mix, with BR compiling a long over-due experimental tape far flung from the previous hip-hop mashes he's generally kicked out.
