Short but so incredibly sweet, Pxl-Bot are incredibly happy to bring you the debut release from The Hamlet.
Melodically driven with an extensive use of harmonics to tame the listener, The Hamlet creates structurally simple yet very powerful songs, opting for a focus on melody to draw the listener in. As if telling a story, the tracks on this release run together to form an inner monologue of a narrative, inflaming the imagination and creating landscapes through the expert use of differing instrumentation. The choosing of specific timbre has been dealt with down to a tee, making each track stand out though both atmosphere and expression, causing this to be one hell of an impressive debut EP and one which we are incredibly proud to have unearthed for you.

Tracklist:
1.    The Burning Bridge
2.    Moutain Ascent
3.    Forest Outskirts
4.    Fog Rising
5.    Frozen Lake
6.    The Valley

Bringing you our second Canadian in a row, Pxl-Bot proudly present to you, DJ Eastern Blok.
Catchy and danceable tunes as the dish of the day here, DJ Eastern Blok manipulates his bass and drums to form a groove-minded coalition to serve as the back ground for his expertly manufactured melodies which jump between assonance and dissonance with an incredible ease to keep you off guard. Body pumping is the best way to describe this cohesively strong release, which whilst following a very similar style throughout, still finds time to digress from its own mould to make use of samples or more downright creepy atmospheres (see “Zombies Value Brains Over Beauty”). Ladle all of this with a healthy dose of trance influence and you have a winning release, and one we are truly proud to bring to our label.

Tracklist:
1.    Hello Blue Eyes
2.    Zombies Value Brains Over Beauty
3.    Moonlit Starshine
4.    Au Revoir Nuit

From Konni:
“This album is basically a mixtape of different stuff I made a year ago,
There’s some ambient and some chipmusic shit as well, so here you go.

Yeah, this isn't really anything serious, but I still wanted to share it!
If you wanna hear good Holy Konni, go to http://www.freizeitmeister.org/music/ea … r-already/

THANKS AND PROINK!”

Doing exactly what it says on the tin, this mixtape of re-worked, old and unreleased tracks manages to showcase precisely why Holy Konni’s focused releases spurt such a vast range of influences and sounds, from the beautiful ambient soundscape tracks to the danceable and cute chip, all of this is purely priceless and far from “chipmusic shit”. 

The mixtape itself jumps from short snippets of sound to full blown chip and ambient works, and even some vocal work thrown in to boot; this is definitely worth your time if you’re a fan of Konni’s work, and might serve even better if you’ve yet to experience the brilliance that is this artist. Memorable and easy to consume, much like Konni’s “serious” work, this mixtape is sure to have you hooked through its expansive and varying depths. A real box of tricks, this mixtape will contain something for everyone. Prepare to be left an extremely happy customer.

With his third release over here at Pxl-Bot, Kommisar relentlessly keeps up appearances with another shotgun blast of insane melody, catchy hooks and full-throttle pacing on his birthday. Spreading the cheer like a boss.
Spanning six short but eclectic songs, Kommisar’s most recent outing brings even more of the sound fans of his work will have come to love and appreciate. The focus on melody and song structure are as strong as ever, whilst still supplying listeners new sounds to keep them interested and in awe of the versatility of this nothing short of full quality artists. Nothing really highlights these points more than the song “SuperFreak”, with its twisting solos and melodies which are ripe as fuck; it sums up the musical career of this astonishingly good artist remarkably well.

Kick starting off this weeks trio of releases from our very own Andrew Kilpatrick is Square Waves Octave [Minor].

This is Andrew's first full length album and it does not disappoint. This album as well as its counterpart, to be released later this week, has a theme of sorts, in which each of its expertly crafted tracks steps up a key from the last until eventually the first song is repeated in the opposite modality to lead onto the following album and vice versa. It is as if Andrew had danced along a piano tapping out songs as he moved along. The tracks are solid, with ambient tones, crackling drums and melodies which make you quiver at the knees. It is definitely an amazing release and a must have for all chip fans.

Track List:

1. Hello World (C Minor)
2. Slow And Methodical (C# Minor)
3. Unknown (D Minor)
4. Groundhog Day (D# Minor)
5. Rapture (E Minor)
6. Bleeding Hears (F Minor)
7. Inhaling Ash And Sentiments (F# Minor)
8. Lineage (G Minor)
9. Greek Tragedy (G# Minor)
10. Iron Oxide (A Minor)
11. Dead Skin (A# Minor)
12. Walking With A Pair Of Broken Ankles And Five Ounces Of Ketamine (B Minor)
13. Goodbye World (C Major)
