BLNK-6 | Codine - Recent Events | Digital



Codine comes out of the gates strong with his release, “Recent Events”. This collection of songs exemplifies Codine’s lust for both Industrial and Detroit Techno. From front to back, the songs collected on “Recent Events” explode with the raw emotion that can only be procured in Detroit. From the industrial influence found on the song, “Mirror” to the tech-house swagger of “Red Triangles”, this release has it all, funk, soul, and hip swaying synth lines.

Available for pre-release @ Beatport August 14, 2007

car accident

I was in a car accident today - I was side swiped at an intersection while driving thru a green light. Everyone is ok and my car is most likely totalled. We spent several hours in the hospital getting xrays and so on... nothing more than bruises and swelling. Just glad everyone is ok - including the girl that hit us. Ugh... i'm ready for bed.

Blank Artists article in Real Detroit Weekly

Blank Artists
By Amy Hubbarth
Jul 24, 2007, 11:09


Most of our artists are active in the Detroit music arena but when they’re not working on music, they’re usually out playing with Hot Wheels, blowing Bubbles and/or drinking lots of High Life,” says Blank Artists founder Josh Dahlberg. “In a way, that’s what Blank Artists stands for — hot wheels and cold beers.”

Obviously not ones to sit around and idle, the Blank Artists crew offers the brand new compilation Blood and Water, featuring fresh tracks from the collective. That roster includes some of Detroit’s hottest producers E. Spleece, J. A. Cummings, Vacuum, Codine, Drew Pompa, Theatre of the Absurd, RS-232, Hot Pink Karma and Josh himself. The disc was mastered by whom Josh names “the most under rated producer in techno, and maybe all of electronic music,” Andy Toth. Smooth and dreamlike to percolating and invigorated, this disc appeals to anyone looking for fresh and inventive electronic music coming straight from Detroit.

“The message I want people to understand, and what the disc does so well at explaining,” Josh says, “is that dance music is such an enjoyable thing, and such a diverse section of music, that it shouldn’t be demeaned by people whose hearts aren’t really in it. I don’t know if you can pinpoint exactly when, but at some point EDM got its head stuck up its own ass, admiring its own shit, and took a turn for the uninspiring.”

Josh will play some chill selections this Saturday at 9 a.m. at the Old Miami for the day ravers. In the meantime, be sure to nab a copy of Blood and Water at Record Time in Ferndale or through Emporium50.com. More partial to the digital? You can always download the Blank Artists sound with a little direction from their website, BlankArtists.com. Either way, keep your ears open for more new sounds because they’re on the way.

“At this point in time everyone involved with the label is working on or waiting for an album to be released,” Josh says. “We can’t wait until we can divulge all the new music.” | RDW

Blank Artists - Blood and Water




BLNK-5 | V/A Compilation - Blood and Water | CD/Digital

Blank Artists’ “Blood and Water” compilation puts on display what, they believe, diversity in music truly means. From E. Spleece feat. Peril Elle’s “Every Square Inch” to, now defunct, Hot Pink Karma’s title track, “Blood and Water”, this album brings together several genres and places them into a small, and easy to digest, capsule. Scattered amongst the funk are some tasty down-tempo licks as well as some ass-shaking house and techno jams – which is a main influence for the label as a whole. Don’t be fooled; just because the hipsters may flock to it doesn’t mean it’s bad!
