Klone:”As a small child I was blown away by Herbie Hancock’s “Rockit” and have been in love with electronic music every since.”
Our second new signing to Muti Music of 2009 is also our second south US based producer and he’s already receiving comparisons to another southern US based producer , i.e. Bil Bless AKA SOTEG / Disciple Grin .
Klone hails from a southern industrialist city, Birmingham Alabama, named after it’s UK counterpart and providing the ideal environment for urban expressionist music that is both melancholy, post apocalyptic and funky enough to move a dancefloor.
Klone has taken full advantage of this environment producing edgy music with synth leads that are both melancholy and pretty, sitting over tough beats and basslines that growl as much as they whomp and groove.
Following in a tradition of Muti artists who don’t stick to one tempo, Klone supplies four flavors that will fit right in with your 90 - 120 BPM collection.
Klone’s debut EP ‘The Push Effect’ is out on promo and exclusive rounds now and will be available everywhere in June 2009.
Grabbing his first turntables around 1999 being really into breaks, electro then garage and progressive breaks and then developing a growing love of glitchy breaks and dubstep. Klone also draws on influences from early techno 91′-92′era (Altern 8, Prodigy, Moby, Acen, Eon, KLF, Apotheosis) and BASS driven music like Dynamix II & Magic Mike.
Keep your ears peeled for a lot more from Klone in the near future.

Introducing Subvert – pK / Muti Music / Rottun Recordings / Shambhala Music Festival.
What started out as an introduction and a remix project turned us ‘on’ to one of Canada’s rising stars of bass driven crunky beats in the form of “Subvert’.
His tracks have been doing promo rounds and have made regular appearances in the sets of Bassnectar, Ill Gates (The Phat Conductor) & Dov amongst others.
Subvert hails from Calgary, Alberta and his winding path in music started in 1996. Proof of his dedication to ‘Bass’ is in his track record of creating the world’s loudest competition vehicles, designing pK’s 90,000 watt sound system and managing the Village Stage at Shambhala Music Festival.
He started DJing in 2000 and combined with his extensive work on sound systems and attention to precision sound, he was ultimately & naturally led down the path to creating his own music productions and once again the low frequencies consumed him. Subvert’s sound is a combination of throbbing, relentless basslines, melodic strings and haunting pianos singing through midtempo glitch / acid crunk and dubstep. His attention to detail and the ability to tune into ‘bass that works’ can be felt in all of his music productions, he is an expert in the subsonic, the crowd and the show.
The past year has truly seen the emergence of Subvert as a recording artist, with a slew of new releases in the first half of 2008:
‘Subversion’ and ‘No Smokey Ganja’ on Rottun Recordings,
‘Bigtsteppa’ on Punch Out
and a recent remix of the Ill Gates smasher ‘Sweat Shop’ upcoming on Muti Music.
We are stoked to announce the forthcoming ‘Dirt Nap’ EP in addition to the ‘Sweat Shop’ remix coming out on Muti Music, the EP will include the tracks; ‘Size Matters’, ‘Curb Stomper’, ‘Dirt Nap’ and ‘Pump et Up’.
It’s all about the bass…..

“…speaker-shaking bass lines and big-time breakbeats that kept the crowd dancing through every element of his ever-evolving set… glitched out hip-hop, cut-up vocals, reggae twists and all the grime you’d ever need or want on a Saturday night in the city.” ~Duke LaRock, sinninginla.com
Since releasing Mammals On the Brink Timonkey’s productions have been evolving into even more diverse textured sounds and beats, his recent Cloud City EP turned even more heads and has proven to be appealing to fans of Trip Hop, Dub, downtempo, Illbient and Glitch Hop.
May 2008 will see the release of Timonkeys new album ‘Cerulea’ that takes the listener on a journey through all the tasty leftfield genres that we’re fast coming to expect from Timonkey.
The album will be available on CD and in digital formats. Check out Timonkey’s two recent mixsets below which include some of the forthcoming material.
Suff-x AKA Bryce Elder has sought to push the boundaries of breakbeats in the Pacific Northwest for over ten years and also been featured at gigs alongside Uberzone, Terry ‘Atomic’ Hooligan, KiloWatts, Tipper, Radioactive Man, Ben Milstein, Kraddy, Dov & Bil Bless and many more luminaries of the breakbeat / electro scenes.
His connection to Muti Music began with a ‘Virus Crew’ gig that Muti owner ‘Dov’ played at in 2002, there meeting the very unique and standout talent in the form of Suff-x.
This chance meeting resulted in a few years of back and forth with Suff-x coming down to San Francisco to be featured alongside Radioctive Man AKA Keith Tenniswood, Dov & Kraddy venturing up to Portland and Seattle to play with Suff-x and Terry Hooligan and then sharing the stage that Suff-x put together at the Phoenix Festival that also featured Ben Milstein and Dave Tipper.

Suff-x shows up at gigs with what looks like a regular DJ coffin and when he opens it up reveals one of the most unique live setups most people have seen, setting him well apart form most ‘laptop’ live sets and DJs alike.
His armada of gear includes two samplers, X/Y controller pads, DJ mixer and a multitude of little gadgets that blink, glow and glitter in nightclub settings.
He juggles tracks, effects, broken tidbits, squiggly snippits, and boogie-down basslines off of his dual samplers set up in battle-style fashion, giving a nod to his turntablist counterparts–the majority of which wouldn’t keep up versus a “scratch mode” session on his korg kaoss mixer!

Dust storms and bio-diesel generators vibrating amongst a haze of awe, exaltation, celebration and emotion, bass blasts out of a mutant vehicle set up at ‘no-where in particular’, roughly lining up between 3.15 and ‘The Man’ and near the snake sculpture, a crowd moshes and bounces to bass-driven, crunk mutations of something that must be dance music, by the fact that people are clearly dancing to it.
Justice - Nazereth tears the sound system a new portal and the systems grinds down to a shreak, radio waves pulsate through the air and a PA announcement,”You are listening to an-ten-nae radio 91.1FM.” This is ‘an-ten-nae’ AKA Adam Ohana, bringing it amongst the likes of Freq Nasty, Adam Freeland, Lee Coombs, Glitch Mob and many more dance music luminaries at Burning Man.
