“For HPL#4, we have invited some expert listeners to share some of their niche interests in music. In a time when we can access more music than we can possibly listen to in a life time, it becomes even harder to dive deep into a particular style or sub-genre of music. Since STEIM is a place where very specific but diverse music tastes pass through, we thought it would be fun to facilitate the exchange of these. During the evening there will be mini presentations on musical styles that you may have heard of but don’t know much about. It might be handy to bring a USB stick along, if you know what I mean”

Yes, another free compilation!

“This album is the second in a series of releases that Echodub have put together to highlight some of the artists that we love.

We selected a number of artists, and asked them all to contribute to what we feel is a showcase of some of the most beautiful music coming from the deeper end of the dubstep, electronic and IDM genres”
