PETER CASE – LIVE DUBLAB “SPROUT SESSION” & INTERVIEW (01.06.10) | Peter Case is a man who has glided through the side streams of music for decades and all the while influenced wider circles. He was a spark for some of the west coast’s most blazing musical moments. You might have heard these yourself or absorbed them via ripples as they filtered up to the mainstream. In the mid-1970′s he fronted the new wave trio the Nerves who helped light the fuse for the Los Angeles punk scene and were famously covered by Blondie. He then formed the Plimsouls who buzzed their way across radio airwaves in the early 80′s and can be heard throughout the soundtrack of the film “Valley Girl.” Case’s solo career in the decades since these early, influential bands has earned high acclaim and these days find him recording, touring, writing and curating wide ranging music projects. For his dublab “Sprout Session” Peter ripped through raw rarities riding on roars of distortion and softer jams encircled in folk overtones. Between songs you can hear an interview with dublab dj and former Plimsouls producer Danny Holloway. It was an honor to have Peter grace the dublab studio. We hope you enjoy this session from a music icon. | 12/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

La Femme – live “sprout session” studio scenes (01.25.11) | The Parisian posse La Femme turned us onto their Parisian synthy-surf-sounds through the Le Podium #1 EP. When we discovered they were planning an extended rampage through our coastal lands we invited them in for a live dublab “sprout session.” The resulting bouncy jams sound like a wave of shaking hips crashing down to a dance-floor that never stops spinning. As La Femme whipped up a whirlpool of frenzied fun Alex Pelly and her film companions from the Masses were on hand to capture the studio scenes using compact Digital Harinezumi cameras. We hope you enjoy these super saturated sights and sounds. | 12/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Telefon Tel Aviv – live at dublab’s “megamix” night (08.04.02) | Years ago dublab hosted a weekly happening at the Temple Bar (now shuttered but still shining in our memories ) in Santa Monica, California. We attempted to present a diverse range of music covering every shade of the future roots spectrum. We hosted a particularly special evening with the band Telefon Tel Aviv.

Charlie Cooper, one half of Telefon Tel Aviv, has since tragically passed away but Josh Eustis continues making music under the TTA moniker. We hope you enjoy this moody musical offering in remembrance of Charlie. | 12/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Anenon – live dublab “sprout session” (11.23.10) | If you crack open a dusty dictionary and flip through inches of pages to the word “composed” you will not find a picture of Anenon sketched next to the definition but, if you listen to his music and dwell on his personal mission of cultured sound dissemination you will be hard pressed to disassociate the artist and this word. Brian Simon, the young man behind Anenon and the collective / record label Non Projects always carries a poised air. This composed sensibility comes through crystal clear in his music and creative identity. Enjoy this stunning “sprout session” and let’s applaud this man who can stick to his word. | 10/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Asura – live dublab “Sprout Session” aka on a mission from the canyon to the lake (11.23.10) | Remember that kid in science class with the cool patterned sweater that had strands of yarn coming loose at the cuffs from hours spent earnestly drawing the flowers of exotic plants discovered on the yellowing pages of overdue library books? It was this same kid who after school would skip the typical hours of television in favor of deep walks into nature. His lunch was trail mix and mix tapes, not candy bars and candy coated conversation. He wasn't a social misfit and he wasn't a loner. He was quiet and thoughtful and cultured. We're not saying this kid is Asura but it is the kind of person who would naturally connect with Ryan York's highly textured, beautiful tones. Asura makes music for kind hearts and bright minds. That's why we're always so excited to share his sounds with you. To continue staying up on his work visit Non Projects. DOWNLOAD | 10/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Fantastic Four + One More (Dusk, Cut Chemist, Marvski, Numark & DJ Shadow) – Live at the Root Down (06.15.00) | The Root Down holds a place of high legend in the history of the Los Angeles underground music community. Every Thursday night for over a decade the Root Down gathered LA’s soul/funk/hip-hop/roots/latin music lovers under one roof to dance and socialize. For six of those years the roof over The Root Down was a spot called Gabah. It was an unassuming joint on Melrose Avenue in East Hollywood. The biggest action in the neighborhood was usually the constant flow of cars on and off the freeway ramps. What those car didn’t know, as they whizzed past in their bubbles, was that another bubble was vibrating nearby. The Root Down was a community cocoon. A fresh zone of soulful, forward thinkers who gave respect due to the pioneers of the past while creatively chopping their way into the future. The Root Down braintrust: Loslito, Miles Tackett, Dusk (Rest in Peace!) and Wyatt Case ensured that every guest who hit the stage was legit or legendary. This quality control kept the vibe high and made the club a classic. Soon after dublab’s founding, in the fall of 1999, we were honored to be welcomed into the Root Down on a weekly basis to record every moment of the musical magic. We were especially lucky to be there on June 15, 2000 as The Fantastic Four (Dusk, Cut Chemist, Marvski, Nu-Mark) + One More (DJ Shadow) lit up the place. This was not long after Cut Chemist & Shadow’s legendary “Brainfreeze” show hit LA and the city was still buzzing. It was also a birthday celebration for Root Down regular, the seminal photographer B+ of Mochilla. Oh yeah, Prince Paul was mingling in the crowd as well. This recording has not been heard for over a decade. It’s a time capsule that’s timeless. You can feel the energy resonating through Dusk’s words on the mic, the crowd’s applause and each fresh jam dropped. Enjoy! | 10/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

DVA DAMAS – LIVE DUBLAB “SPROUT SESSION” (01.28.11) | Remember when you went to that haunted house with your parents and at first you hung on so tightly to your mother’s hand that her fingertips turned white? Your fear was a cocoon to keep you safe. After a few loud screams and twisty turns through dark corridors, your silky cocoon was covered by cobwebs. It became a spooky coffin that incubated you into a pale monster child. Soon your mother’s grip loosened out of fear, and you were left howling at the moon as your brethren of the night creep-walked in a graveyard dance macabre. You transformed into a creature of pure doom and only the moon knew the secrets of your sinister shade. It was a song serenading you in echos to seal your transformation. The howls of the haunted house band DVA Damas kept the rhythm to see you through to the dark side. Revisit the buzz of this ghastly cabaret with a listen now. Your mind will recoil into a state of sinister rejuvenation and your dark pulse will deepen. Mommy will surely never hold your hand again. | 10/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Rainbow Arabia – Live at What x What-ever SXSW (03.19.11) | Split the spectrum into exotic rays and vibrate to the point of ecstatic explosion and you’ve got a slight taste of what a Rainbow Arabia set sounds like. The righteous duo escaped the musical mayhem + beer sud splash know as South x Southwest to take refuge in Austin’s glimmering art & culture hub, Domy Books. dublab & Yowie joined forces with the Domy posse to support their flip on the annual Austin experience dubbed What x What-ever. This was a jam outside of the sticky jams outside. Within this free spirit freak zone we proudly presented a string of live webcasts. The Rainbow Arabia set was extra special because it happened in the midst of an amazing photo show by Ed & Deanna Templeton. The frames nearly rumbled off the walls but it was all worth it as Rainbow Arabia blazed through a set of songs from their Kompakt Records released album Boys and Diamonds. | 9/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Soft Moon – live dublab “sprout session” (02.07.11) | When the Soft Moon rises, valleys are flooded with cold light. Static crackles, petals fade to pale and a chill runs deep.

Jeans Wilder – live dublab “sprout session” | Have you ever been at the beach surfing killer tubes under majestic Sun rays? Of course you have. You fly over rippling waves while slapping flipper high fives to dolphin bros. You cut and jib and jive and jump and slither across the face of the ocean like a super hero set on smooth motion.

Tearist – live dublab “sprout session” | Tearist encompass the rawest elements: metal on metal, flesh on flesh, sweat on sweat, fire on fire. They boil and bang it all to the core. Sparks shower and air is set aflame. You need to ride through it to truly get in deep. Creep down the tunnel with Tearist to find what awaits. When all becomes noise and darkness, your mind plays tricks. Hope sparkles in the void and you sense warmth awaiting but doom grasps and squeezes.

Vex Ruffin – live dublab “sprout session” (04.29.11) | The Ramones first gig in NYC was at CBGB’s and everyone thought it was awful except two arty synth freaks, Martin Rev and Alan Vega of Suicide but the story didn’t stop there. The new pals left the crummy club behind and started sauntering down back alleys to avoid the b******t of the East Village streets. They talked about their favorite loud sounds and where to score cheap, dark sunglasses. As they cruised past one particularly shaky tenement the Sun disappeared completely behind ten floors of crumbling brick and the alley was lost in eclipse. Little did the dudes know that right in front of them the street fell into a sludgy crevice big enough to swallow a cargo van. They, being rail thin and top heavy with hair, slid straight into the fissure and disappeared for a week. They never spoke about what happened in that hole but they would occasionally mutter strange phrases like, “We sent the future west” or, “This world is vexed.” Vex Ruffin has emerged from the Chino Hills way out here in California 2011, and though years removed from NYC circa 1974, they seem to have caught a whiff of what was brewing in that underground meeting. Stones Throw has since caught the scent and signed the band. We welcomed them to dublab for their first ever radio session and interview to share some secrets. Listen just beneath the surface, and you’ll hear the rumbling. | 9/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Daedelus presents…”Toil & Trouble,” a musical menagerie inspired by LACMA’s Tim Burton exhibition | dublab takes over LACMA this Saturday 09.10.11 for a musical exploration. Click here for information on the happening. Daedelus has created the perfect soundtrack to accompany your voyage through LACMA’s Tim Burton Retrospective. Download his mix and put it on your personal music player to enjoy while touring the gallery. Following are some words from Daedelus about his musical tribute to Tim Burton. “Toil & Trouble,” as inspired by the phenomenal Tim Burton Retrospective at LACMA thru Halloween; is an attempt to evoke some of the very disparate forces at play and playful in Mr. Burton’s oeuvre. Here is a gentleman that has crossed every creative boundary with iconic style, so a daunting task indeed to try and reveal his unique spirit in song, but with much joy in my attempt. Deciding to have this mix be a sort of counter-soundtrack for the installation, as well a meditation on his considerable style. You’ll find ancient and classic tracks with some modern musics from the likes of Shlohmo, Airhead, Flying Lotus with MatthewDavid, and much much more. I do so hope you enjoy, or at least revel in the airs solely Tim Burton.” – Daedelus | 9/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pregnant – live dublab “sprout session” (01.04.10) | Pregnant materialized within our lives in the form of a clear, yellow vinyl LP that plays in reverse. This may seem like a strange form for a messenger to take but it was an overwhelmingly effective one. Upon placing Life's Blood on the turntable the phonograph needle started to make its journey from inside to out. With each rotation the energy of an inventive spirit was unlocked. Pregnant was reaching out to us from his circular vessel and surrounding our beings with fields of high vibrations. Our auras had been intensely magnified with the addition of these sound waves and soon our entire beings were immersed in the electric instant. After this initial astral-phased listening experience it was our great pleasure to make a personal connection with the gentleman who had enabled our musical epiphany. Pregnant aka Daniel Trudeau ventured from his Sacramento home south to the dublab studio and was kind enough to perform a live set focused on dublab-tuned ears (YOURS YOURS YOURS). We are now thrilled to share this "sprout session" with you and are sure your experience will be one of greatest heights. Stay tuned for a lot more Pregnant coming up soon on dublab. | 9/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Gil Scott-Heron – Live in Scotland (2001) | Gil Scott-Heron was a hugely inspirational figure for the dublab family. Coming across his records was always like finding beacons of light in the dust. His wisdom was incredibly insightful and shone with clarity that dug to the core. Gil has passed from this Earth but left us with so much to continue exploring. He has strewn our world with pearls. We are happy to share one such gem with you now. In 2001 our friends at Canongate Books presented a concert with Gil in Scotland. Jamie Byng from Canongate was a longtime friend and supporter of Gil. In this recording Gil exudes a sense of comfort from performing in the company of friends. Canongate passed this recording to dublab for an exclusive broadcast in 2001. We're happy to share it with you again in tribute to Gil. Thanks to Jamie Byng, Peter Collinridge and Canongate Books. Rest in peace Gil.

Senor Coconut – live at Noura (12.12.07) | The sweaty Latino soul machine known as Senor Coconut was once the pale and rather serious Uwe Schmidt a creator of sounds and deep concepts. One day this mild-mannered music composer was on his south of the border vacation and laid out in the sun for a few winks. These winks turned to years and upon awaking this gentleman was still pale as can be but has absorbed the Sun’s sultry power and became a Latin music rhythm super-machine. In 2007 he brought his shakes and rattles to Los Angeles and gave us a taste of his sabor. dublab was there to archive the moment for all to enjoy. | 5/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Ólöf Arnalds – Live dublab “Sprout Session” (11.18.10) | Ólöf Arnalds hails from Iceland and was making her way through the US opening for Blonde Redhead when she graced the dublab studio for a "Sprout Session." We had already been familiar with her album "Innundir Skinni" on One Little Indian. The record is a modern folk gem produced by Sigur Rós band member Kjartan Sveinsson and featuring collaborations from Björk and other Icelandic creative stars. The liner notes read like an unlocking of exotic instrument cabinets. Though she is deeply planted in the world of Icelandic folk she is striving to shape her own unique world of sound apart from any stereotypical branding that may be applied to her country's distinct scene: forest fairies, mist and dreamy dew. Though she is adamant to avoid such classifications her music has a sense of the magic one might find floating in a stream bubbling up from the volcanic Earth of Iceland. Her dublab session is a beautifully stripped down solo set. It opens with a very short, traditional Icelandic folk song, moves on to share many of her wonderful compositions and even includes a cover of Arthur Russell's country folk tune "Close My Eyes." Throughout Ólöf paints a picture of calm and clarity that is a beautiful thing to behold. | 4/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Linda Perhacs Band – Live on dublab’s “Sounds of Symmetry” Proton Drive (11.18.10) | Linda Perhacs is an artist who thinks far outside the realm of the obvious. Our astonished love of her timeless album “Parallelograms” will never fade. We feel so incredibly honored to have connected with her personally and to have co-presented her first ever live, public performance as part of dublab’s 10th anniversary celebration. She connected with many talented, progressive musicians as a result of that concert and has since been performing live and recording new music. Linda and her band composed of Julia Holter, Michelle Vidal and Aaron Robinson blessed our studio for a live performance in support of dublab’s “Sounds of Symmetry” Proton Drive fundraiser. We hope you enjoy these live versions of Linda’s classic songs “Chimacum Rain” and “If You Were My Man” performed by this trio of young talents. | 4/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

UP DIED SOUND – LIVE DUBLAB “SPROUT SESSION” (09.16.10) | The humans behind Up Died Sound are not totally new to dublab listeners. Guitarist/vocalist/violinist Nicky Mao graced the dublab airwaves years ago during the infancy of her former band Effi Briest. We were thrilled to welcome Nicky back under the banner of Up Died Sound. She and band-mates Tyler Nolan (guitar) Jonathan Leland (drums), and Jordi Wheeler (bass) entered the dublab sound creation center and proceeded to unveil an electric, spiraling tapestry of psychedelic tones. These tunes could stack into one ever-ascending ladder to the cosmos where with your bright Up Died Sound tele-presence-torch you will proceed to see and be seen by the universe as a sparkling star of exploding energy. To ensure the torch stays lit be sure to listen to this session on repeat or pick up a copy of Up Died Sound's self-titled debut album on Shinkoyo. For those with their noses deeply folded into album liner notes it will not come as a surprise that Nicholas Emmett of fellow NYC sonic surge exploders Nymph recorded and mixed the album. Star light, star bright the first star that explodes tonight will feel so right. | 4/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
DJ Nuts from Sao Paolo
I am SO thankful that you guys put this one out. A very humbling reminder how much music is in the world, and how little I know about any of it.
Get some knowledge...
I've been a long time fan of these guys. Consistantly surprising, high quality stuff that you've never heard before. They blend new stuff and old stuff, pro and amateur, hip-hop, hippy stuff, electronic stuff, experimental, you name it. But always smart and fresh. The podcast consists mainly of live sets by producers, DJs, bands and individual performers that comprise their extended crew. It's some pretty nice listening for the most part with some oddballs here and there. But some of those oddballs are my new favorites. Do yourself a favor and subscribe. It's a fun trip. And if you're not careful along the way, you just might learn something.
