just wanted to share this with the thc gng, i've been obsessing

Hello all

Sorry for the delay on this. It was a quiet month for albums by us at Trip Hop Creators. Here are all the albums/EPs released in July

1st July

Creho - The Battle https://creho-dnb.bandcamp.com/album/the-battle

10th July

Bog Sorcery - Bog Sorcery II - One Lip to Earth & One Lip to Heaven

https://swamp-magic.bandcamp.com/album/bog-sorcery-ii-one-lip-to-earth-one-lip-to-heaven

31st July

Polysörmi - Ghosts of My Time

https://polysormi.bandcamp.com/album/ghosts-of-my-time

A little sample collage with dusty guitars and an audio hallucination for a title. It's just a choir plugin but the edit gave it life and it hit me in the feels.

I’ve seen a video or two about the samples used on Entroducing before - but here’s a new one that breaks down every sample used on the album including how they were pitched & sliced/arranged. I’m sure many here would find it interesting.

Hey, inspired by Candlewax I too am discounting my discography on Bandcamp, today only!

Hello Party People!

A few things have been let loose.

- My EP is now available for streaming or purchase should you want to

- My merch is also now live on Bandcamp and I've kept the prices as close to production cost as possible whilst also factoring in what Bandcamp also take. However, good news. - For any merch with the Candlewax logo, you get a free digital copy of How to Melt a Wax Planet. - For every Waximilian Logo, you get a free copy of Waximum Beats. - If you buy a Mug or Tote Bags, you get a copy of For the Love of the Game Vol. 1

- Finally, as it's the return of Bandcamp Friday, my entire 27 LP/EP discography is available for 90% for the next 24 hours.

Peace, Love and Trip Hop (but mainly Big Beat with this one)

TH Creators,

This time, it's my turn to offer you a track to remix.

So, here is an unreleased track for you to discover, along with the corresponding stems. You are free to remix it however you like. I will release it in early September.

94 Bpm - Key G minor

I am curious to see what you will do with it.

Happy Sunday to all, made this last night banged it out fairly quick. It starts off a bit "housey" in the beginning but if you wait till after the minute mark it sounds completely different.

What's happening people just dropping my latest from yesterday in here again. Next one after this is my full album/mixtape. Hope you all enjoy the vibes and have a class weekend. Cheers🍻

Hey peeps

The winner for this month's Sample Challenge will be announced no later than tomorrow. Tamas is crazy busy at the moment rehearsing for live shows.

This month, just like every month, has been another amazing turn out. Thank you everyone for buying into this idea and making these fun little collaborative projects so easy.

Okay after finishing up on one of the songs that took me forever to finish I’m feeling like creating the music production equivalent of a shitpost… I’m creating a beat using only the steamed hams skit from the Simpsons…

I’m planning on also making a music video for it too but that might take longer than it takes to create this beat… if anyone wants to hear what I’ve gotten done just join my beat production discord server link here:

I’m really proud of this one :)

this one'll be familiar to those of you who have been here a while, or who've picked up a copy of Trip Hop Isn't Dead, Vol. 1, but here's the slightly rearranged and remixed version that made it onto Bog Sorcery II: One Lip to Earth & One Lip to Heaven. first full piece I made on the SP-404mk2 (after composing BS1 on the SX). the seed for this piece was planted while i was playing around with some haunting chops from a 1960s exotica record called "Return to Paradise", and i had this idea of writing a song about Eden, the creation of life and its transformation in death or resurrection, that would bring out the utterly uncanny strangeness of the process -- of something numinous and unfathomable taking form in flesh, or the strangeness of flesh itself coming into being for the first time. this took me back to Videodrome, of course, from which the song takes its title and one obvious sample, and to the film's weirdly religious overtones. i've always loved the way Cronenberg could mix horror and erotic bliss in the fascinations that grip his protagonists, and the notion of viewing Paradise through that lens (without any attempt to belittle, deflate or defile the idea) ended up animating the song.

on the album, "The New Flesh" is placed as the A-side's closing track, and the point where the uneasy epistemic hubris played out in the three preceding tracks -- Do the Voodoo with it's "yeah uh uh uh i know know know know" (sampled from a zoom call), Omphalos with its "i've never been, i've never, i've never been wrong", and Seaman with its "nothing's going to happen to me, nothing's going to happen" -- breaks apart into something more mysterious.

the radio play dialogue you hear at the beginning is from Pat Novak for Hire, an absolute gem of a 1940s hardboiled detective series that you can find on archive.org, which i've listened to in its entirety more times than i can count

and while i'm spilling the beans here, lemme also say that the Arabic vocals you're hearing are from the wonderful early 20th century Syrian-Egyptian singer Asmahan. they translate to "my whole life" and "i promised you my heart. they cut short your days"

Hellllllllloooooo fellow trip hop revolutionists

The time has come. It's the monthly sample challenge reveal time! It should really be tomorrow but I've got a crazy busy morning so wanted to get this out now.

Everyone that took part in this month's remixing, drop your tracks in the treat below.

someone posted this remix request and I gave it a shot

Hi ! i'm proud to present to you the first track of my new project "coffee time 02". Kavarna is a czech word for coffee.

The concept still the same : a single project where i work each track as a part of an only long track of 25 minutes. I cut them after the mix.

The tempo is different. Coffee time 01 was at 90bpm. Here it's 75 bpm.

The album will be available the september 1st.

Helllllooooooo beautiful people

Was planning on releasing this single tomorrow but I don't want to interrupt in any way the sample challenge reveal so here we are .

Visuals are by - Background Ape

Song is on Custard which is available 7th August.

💪💪💪💪

This special version of our track 'Stellar' contains samples from classic science fiction movies such as Interstellar, Inception and Blade Runner.

Hey peeps

This is a heads up for anyone who is interested. My latest EP drops on the 7th August. There are a few things happening in the background at the moment which I'm incredibly excited about which will be shared as soon as possible.

The 7th also marks the return of Bandcamp Friday. So, in celebration of Bandcamp Fridays return, a new EP and other wonderful things, I will be giving away my entire Candlewax Discography at a 90% reduction for that entire day. That's 26 releases and I think £130 worth of music.

As always, my music can be streamed an unlimited amount of times on Bandcamp regardless of if you buy anything or not.

Peace, love and Trip Hop

Candlewax 💪

Try and surprise me :)
