Matthewdavid - All the Love I Fell for You (XLR8R Podcast)

Photobucket

The ranks of LA's beat scene have swelled exponentially in the past year, but even amongst the sea of FlyLo knockoffs, a small cadre of truly innovative producers continues to stand out. One of those producers is Matthewdavid, an accomplished beatmaker and sound collage artist who also happens to run the inventive Leaving Records label. Both David and the Leaving imprint are known for their love of unusual releases, whether it be limited-run cassettes with custom-made artwork or hand-painted floppy disks.

Matthewdavid conjures up a sound with an ever-evolving flow, and one that never fails to keep bodies and minds buzzing with warmth. His live sets are usually an exploration of deepest sea depths and in this case, the lower you dive the higher you get.

The guys over at XLR8R invited the Ambient Balladeer to curate the latest in their podcast series. David has combined abstract gems with field recordings, discarded cassettes, distorted vintage R&B instrumentals, and lots and lots of tape delay. When a mix includes song descriptions along the lines of "Mexican tape from the '80s I ended up throwing away," it's clearly not the average DJ offering.
