µ-Ziq

I ran across this guy around 4 years ago, during my "Breakcore" phase, and browsed through his albums throughly unimpressed.  I was looking for the overused "Amen Break" style of breakcore and µ-Ziq didn't quite have much.

After returning much later,(today actually) I found he had quite a few rockin' tunes I passed over my first time.  A slew of upbeat, happy melodies mixed with a touch of electronic jazz and breaks.  "Lunatic Harness", being his best album by far, containing outstanding listens such as "Hasty Boom Alert" and "Mushroom Compost".  He brings a really unique style and feel to the genre.


Just don't expect a whole lot from the rest of his work.  It is THE definition of "Hit or Miss".  Probably because he messes around with a shit ton of different styles.

Give him a look!

  5. Typically I don't really like this kind of music. Just a bunch of digital noise, in my opinion. But I've gotta say this was pretty catchy.
