Free Download: Night Swimmers Records – The Dusty & The Glitchy

As an ode to the flourishing beat scene, Frankfurt-based label Night Swimmers organized a two-part compilation that showcases two sides of beatmaking. On The Dusty, beats are calm numbers with jazz and soul samples coming together in harmony over slow and muddy drums. On the flip side, The Glitchy, is an electronic punch in the trachea of crunchy synths, glitchy bleeps, bloops, and off kilter percussion.  

The whole compilation is available on vinyl at HHV.de with glitches on the A-side, and dusty goodness on the B-side. Artists featured include FloFilz, Maloon TheBoom, Melodiesinfonie, Andrea, Mute Speaker, Question, Mecca:83 and more.

The artwork is also perfectly fitting, coming from Marina Munn, who has an instantly recognizable style (remember her work for Catching Flies?). You can download both seperate sides below.
