Audiovoid has been turning heads for many years and his electronic music, evolving from involvement in Death Metal band “Lamia” and journeying to IDM, Techno, Psy-Trance, Breakbeat and Electro. Audiovoid never limits himself to just one genre of music.
In 2002 Audiovoid compiled 80 minutes of material from various demos and created his first full length CD, “Twilight Machine”. In 2003, Ultra Records nominated him a top finalist for a remix he did of Sasha’s ‘Wavy Gravy’. In 2004 he released “Disconnect Yourself” on MDEX Recordings, which went on to release a few more Audiovoid singles and remixes featuring ‘Audiovoid’ amongst high profile Techno & Progressive talent and has more recently released some outstanding Breaks, IDM and Dubstep on Muti Music.
Praise and play has come from the likes of Si Begg and Bassnectar and comparisons to Neil Landstrumm, Ital Tek and Andy Page, Audiovoid is only beginning to show us his full potential. Recent releases and remixes of his have been on Addictech Recordings, IOT Records, Daily City Recordings, IVDT, MDEX, Crunch Pod, Cyberset, Psyber Tribe, Mechanismz and of course here at Muti Music.
“.. shifting between a dark tunnelled cyber-realm playing bassline lazer-tag, a cushioned bed of clouds and bouncing into newly discovered outer regions of the skies, Lurk Sauce is a fascinating journey.”

‘The Earth Bleed EP is deep and brooding and at other times playful, humorous and uplifting. ‘
Dov’s original mix of ‘Earth Bleed’ delves into ever expanding basslines and organic textures at times reminiscent of volcanic fissures and atmospheric rips. One of USA’s pioneers of electronica, namely ‘Single Cell Orchestra’ takes things even deeper ‘into the darkness’ with a remix of squelchy basslines and a steady groove.
Rounding out the remixes of the title track is LayerZ (also known as Audiovoid) delivers a version that is ghostly, haunting and yet helps dig us out of the deep pit of bass with rolling almost melodic basslines. Moving onwards the EP also features a collaboration track with Canadian breaks, dubstep, glitch, techno, electro producer / man of the moment, ill.gates, the track is almost theatrical in nature, with clear dubstep influences, lots of field recording and sound design and also picking up the pace a little and showing much variety in beats and percussion.
The EP is rounded of with an uplifting midtempo breakbeat track that is great for something to round off a night.
It started out as sharing parts to some tunes and LayerZ remixing a tune by Los Angeles based group ‘Kether’ (Tim Ruffhauser and Square-1) and resulted in a conceptual EP using the sound palette to create three distinctively different evolutions of the same sounds.
LayerZ production style has always caught peoples ears with his special gift of sound design and evolving sound spaces, so expect to see a lot more similar experiments in the near future.
Outstanding listening! Clipping Paths provides deep urban vibes, bass-driven tribal mid-tempo, trip hop and ‘glitch-hop’ that will also rock most dancefloors. The last few tracks take you into deeper territories providing a luscious ending for the CD.
Muti Music is known for finding new and unique talent, this compilation features the Muti roster and closely related artists who are also emerging on labels like Interchill, Cyberset and Native State.
Clipping Paths is a compilation showcase of the sounds that are moving the west coast at the moment as well as many other areas around USA, including small pockets in Colorado, Texas, Oregon and New York.
The CD ranges from deep urban vibes from Suff-x, Undecided and Vibesquad, to ethereal bass-driven tribal midtempo and Trip Hop from an-ten-nae, Nanda, KiloWatts, Timonkey and Dov, to a crunky mixed genre mid-tempo track from Ooah, that is sure to rock most dancefloors, but deep enough at the same time to prove the perfect segway heading into the deeper territories of IDM, Leftfield and Nugaze inspired tracks from Audiovoid, Kraddy and Slidecamp ending the CD in a very warm and luscious space.
Many of the styles featured have been growing in popularity and seeing large exposure with the emergence of a similar musical tastes in scenes growing in Berlin, San Francisco, London and even Cape Town. This ‘newer’ sound has partially been an homage by producers to the Hip Hop and Big Beat along with early experimental electronica that they loved in the nineties and bootlegging the hyphe and crunk of the new millennium with the new digital tools and a new production based prowess.
Muti Music is known for finding new and unique talent, this compilation features most of Muti’s regular roster and then a group of closely related artists that we are feeling, who are also emerging on labels like Alpha Pup, Interchill Records, Dirtybird and Native State.
This compilation is as fun for a manic dancefloor stomp, a come-down session, a groove and a mingle, a fire warmed cabin or even a walk on the beach.
Big Shot Magazine Review: Electro is great. Long live electro. But its been a while since we’ve had electro of this quality with three tunes of varying styles that could all be A-sides on their own.
“Euphoria” gets inside your head in the way only electro can, with a minimalist approach that’s always good and a collection of nasty tech synth sounds all given just enough reverb, this tunes gets better with each listen.
LayerZ brings the Evil Stuff, a tune that fuses electro with dubstep faitly successfully and again, while the production is excellent it feels as if some of the glitch is there just for its own sake, diminishing the quality of the tune a little. “Electronom” is arguably the best track on the EP. the Bassline is heavy and the melody has an almost Kraftwerk feel ala “Trans Europe Express”, ideal for the best soundsystems.
