Grey Filastine (Born in Los Angeles and he lives in Barcellona) is an audio-visual artist born in Los Angeles, based in Barcelona, and often nomadic. He composes a dense transnational bass music that collides the lowest frequencies of dubstep with the highest-level beat science, acoustic strings, voices, and lofi street noises. The results are “Awesome and delicate… hybrids so fluent they defy classification.” -Pitchfork.
Filastine’s debut record, Burn It, was released by DJ Rupture in 2006 to much critical acclaim: “Filled with both jagged edges and moments of sad sweetness… Burn It is sure to win fans across multiple scenes”- XLR8R. The album ricocheted around the world, licensed and re-released by labels in France, Japan, and the US. The follow-up album, Dirty Bomb, dropped in 2009 through an alliance of labels led by French electro-dub imprint Jarring Effects. Prefix Mag called it “the prototype of globalized urban sound… It will devastate your subwoofer.”
Performing up to a hundred concerts per year, Filastine uses percussion to control loops and synchronized video from a heap of electronics wired to an amplified shopping cart. You may have seen him at a sweaty Tokyo nightclub, a football stadium in Casablanca, a respected euro-fest like Sonar, in a parking lot in Borneo, or touring the US with Bassnectar.
Before making electronic music Filastine played with the Infernal Noise Brigade, a marching band he founded for the Battle of Seattle. He continues to use audio as a tool for political intervention with the Sound Swarm, an orchestra of bike-mounted megaphones conducted by pirate radios transmitters.
Spring of 2012 Filastine delivers the LOOT, his third full length work. LOOT was made in tandem with a grip of potent videos, and launches with a year-long world tour with stops on every continent. The freshly re-tooled live set uses custom software to pull off some deep AV madness, and sees Filastine expanding to tour as a duo, always joined on stage by Indonesian vocalist Nova or one of the collaborating cellists from the album.

Slow Magic, (U.S.A.) dopo l’ incredibile tour con Gold Panda, sold out nelle principali città del Nord America, arriverà in Europa per l’ Iceland Airwaves Festival in Islanda e per una serie di date tra cui Roma il 13 Novembre e Bologna il 14.
“Slow Magic is the sound made by an unknown imaginary friend.” Nessuno conosce ancora chi si celi dietro quella maschera, ma una cosa è certa: il lavoro di Slow Magic è tutto da scoprire. Chiunque sia Slow Magic, qualsiasi faccia abbia, la sua musica ha un qualcosa di speciale: Triangle, il suo primo long play, esce nell’ aprile 2012, attirando su di se le attenzioni di gran parte della stampa che conta, grazie a canzoni come “Corvette Cassette” e sognanti video come il clip per “Feel Flows”. Il suo suono rimbalza tra chillwave e dreampop, il suo live è emotivo, emozionante, interattivo ed a tratti misterioso. Ha curato remix per Bon Iver, XXYYXX e Giraffage (con cui ha condiviso lo scorso tour europeo). Di recente ha inoltre pubblicato il singolo “Youth Group” che anticiperà il suo prossimo lavoro in studio, confermando le aspettative di pubblico e critica. E’ inoltre in arrivo un remix ufficiale firmato Gold Panda, con cui ha condiviso gran parte del tour nord americano.
“YOUTH GROUP” – LA NUOVA CANZONE DI SLOW MAGIC:
Slow Magic premiered a new song called “Youth Group” via Stereogum last month and this would be good new track to share:
