Audiopleasures Mixtape : mY Indie Soul # 47

Collage by Elizabeth Hoeckel

mY Indie Soul # 47 will be the last 2011 mixtape and focus on a lot of fresh new talent that is breathing out there in electronic music with the exception of the last two monster tracks by well established heavy weights ... the sounds ranges from instrumental glitch-hop with tons of brainfeeder abstract beats, bits of haunted witch house, future bass and IDM.

Video : King Dude - Big Blue Eyes

Fascinating video directed by Alice Cohen for the track "Big Blue Eyes" by Seattle's King Dude, the song something of a hypnotic doom folk that is poetically accompanied with a stop motion rich in occult symbols and blood mysterious lust
