mash smarter not harder isn't just an EP. it's an audio manifesto, a roadmap to a mashed-up future. the goal of this EP isn't just to generate downloads or make you shake your ass—though it promises to do both—but to spawn a new golden age of mashups.
with this EP, stAllio! introduces a brand-new style that takes the mashup aesthetic to the next level. samples shuffle in and out, then back in again before you even notice them. the music flips, skips, and hops between your favorite hits so effortlessly you could be forgiven for thinking it was all meant to be this way. this new style—whatever you call it: post-mashup, dance collage, new-school bootleg—mixes the energy and danceability of Girl Talk with the subversive wit of Negativland and Cassetteboy.
if you love mashups, if you used to love mashups but nowadays find them a bit boring, or if you're just interested in remixing, sampling, audio manipulation, and the like, you need to download
mash smarter not harder immediately. get it now and get on the bandwagon while there's still room.
is this EP as good as we say it is? is it even possible for a record to live up to this much hype? the only way to find out is to

BACONHANGER - "hoosier holocauspitality" // bad taste #28

baconhanger's debut,
hoosier holocauspitality, may be bad taste's most brutal, unrelentingly punishing release yet. the audio equivalent of a middle finger in your face,
hoosier holocauspitality is 15 tracks of intense breakcore and gabber, jacked up on sample cutups and circuitbent toys. from start to finish, there's no time to relax, no place to hide from the aural assault.

UNSZENE - "reckless stepchild" // bad taste #29

5 years after it's initial
very limited release,
reckless stepchild is finally unleashed to a wider audience. circuit-bent electronics & mutilated tape loops produce cascading waves of static that give way to intermittent rhythmic underpinnings in a true free-form spirit. lo-fi & raw in nature, unszene will lead you to a world of analog in decay. featuring collaborations with bobby vomit & unusable signal.

all hail infinite decay
glory be to impermanence
