Shortcircles - Mapzzz EP 04label: Mapzzzreleased: 15 March 2011style: electronic instrumental beats idmformat: 320kbps mp3, FLAC,....The music of Matthew Tammariello (a.k.a. Shortcircles) has had a bit of a fabled past with the Mapzzz crew. Tammariello’s productions seem to have carved themselves into a unique place between instrumental hip-hop (think Teebs, Bonobo, and the likes) and blissful techno (think Four Tet, Gold Panda, and the likes), incorporating dense soundscapes and sparkling melodies along with deep bass and starkly minimal beats. Vocals come in the form of chopped and pitched samples, mostly revolving around the theme of love in such an ambiguous way it’s hard to tell whether they are intended to be inspiring or melancholy.tracklist:1.

Shortcircles - Shortcircles EPlabel: Plug Researchreleased: February 14, 2012style: electronic bliss hiphop instrumental beatsformat: 320kbps mp3A musician that was never trained as such, every time a composition is created warrants a different approach. Inspired by Four Tet, Teebs, Floating Points and DJ Shadow, as well as a plethora of 50’s jazz records, the Shortcircles sound is hard to pin-point. The best way he can describe it is as a “peaceful sound. I try to make music that is as honest to myself as possible.” With that mindset he set out to craft a follow up Shortcircles project. Collaborating with other vocalists and musicians, this was the most serious project to date for Matt. Without having an outlet for it, he completed it. It wasn’t until friend and Plug Research artist Elephant & Castle heard the album that Matt considered a label. E&C played liaison and within a short time, Shortcircles became a welcome addition to the roster. Shortcircles promises to deliver an amalgam of styles both soothing and galvanizing, but always honest. tracklist:01 Fallin' feat C.
