New Release : Marley Carroll – 30 in 60 [DJ Mix]
[download - 30 in 60.zip]
Melanaster Records is proud to present 30 in 60, a brand-new live DJ mix that features the experimental looping and glitching techniques that Marley Carroll has developed over the past year [see video below].
30 in 60 features 30 tracks in exactly 60 minutes, and the album cover substitutes for a track list – each square represents an artist featured in the mix.
Much of the material was developed specifically for Marley’s opening slot for Prefuse 73 in September of this year, and the highlights of those two hours were condensed to make this killer 60-minute workout.
More details available on the downloads page [equipment, technique]. You can preview / stream the album below, or click the download link at the top of the post to grab the entire mix for free!
