2_Loons_for_Tea_coverEpisode 14 of EXPANDIZONS kicks off with an artist in Taiwan who goes by the name of MoShang. He’s released an album called “Asian Variations (Various Artists Remixed by MoShang).” As the name implies, it features MoShang remixes of a number of talented electronica artists.

Next, we move onto a nujazz/downtempo track from an ensemble known as Polifonia Visual. They’re based in Tokyo, but released through a netlabel in Mexico called Konfort.

A couple of remixers from ccMixter are featured in this episode: cdk from Canada, and DJ Blue from the USA.

We’ve got more tracks from newly released albums, too: “Surrounder (club mix)” from the Grains of Sound release “Rays of Life, Volume 1 (downtempo),” which you can buy from their website; “Sunset Room.” We’ve got a track from the album “Nine Lucid Dreams” from Two Loons for Tea. And we’ve got a track from Ambrish called “Stegerwald,” which is one of the featured tracks on a new compilation called “Azaad-E” released on Chillom Records in India.

But that’s not all. We’ve also got a track from Liquid Frame in Italy called “Ride Away (ambient mix)” and a great track from The Incognito Traveler (thanks for the recommendation, Bextravagant!) called “Chaleur,” which is also released on the Konfort netlabel in Mexico.
