mark and stefan have been making noises for a long, long time. born in an storm way, way back, they have forgotten more than most people know about the art of making people move their bodies in strange ways - graduating from the psychonautic academy of vibrational arts with 2 lfos, a couple of vcfs and 3 vcos… when theyre not working in the studio on their new psychedelic project pulp disco & the outcasts, theyre getting up to all sorts of bad behavior in ibiza, france and their home in london and manchester. warehouse parties, dirty dive bars and seedy strip joints have all been seduced by their magic over the years, and this is where the duo feel most at home. the wrong side of the horizon is where they were born…and dark dub-discos are now their only refuge. so when the moon is full, hitch a ride with them into deep space...

the opening hits of the percussion stay smooth and relaxed, and the instruments come in one-by-one – first the synth, then the strings, then the brass – to create an experience thats both engaging and relaxing. this is the sort of music i would listen to if i cruised the streets of san francisco in the evenings. as >back to the bay< wraps up and pulls us into his remix of >screw up<, we get a dose of subscapes intensity, but its quickly pulled back into matty gs signature low-bass, hip-hop/dubstep fusion beats. >jam like a tek< adds in some vocal hooks to get the crowd chanting – and you are missing out if you dont add this into your mix. deep kick drums, a snappy snare, big distortion on the scratchy bass wobbles, and the vocals all come together perfectly to create a track thatll get people grinding like mad on the dancefloor.

the aliens return with another anthem. there has been a lot of speculation as to who these bad men are, with most guesses being people who have released on the ssds label or other south londoners. some of the main guesses have been kromestar, coki, cotti, f-1, n-type, and kosha, but i am not convinced anyone actually knows who is in it.

though classically trained, arthur russells major contributions to the music world is in the dance genre. despite the fact that his pioneering work in the late 70s and on through the 80s was only quietly acknowledged at the time, his long-term impact is best described as formidable. russell died in 1992, but his art lives on and his influence is still felt in the world of dance music and beyond. his innovative, leftfield dance records flew way ahead of what people were used to hearing at the time, due in part to his involvement in new yorks downtown avant-garde music scene.
