So, a little bit of information. Abstracker is a great musician/DJ, its true – but he’s also a contributor for Bassadelic.com! He recently wrote a terrific article about the French Glitch Wave; an incredily informative and fun article about some of the new electronic music to hit Europe.

So, if it weren’t for this guy, I wouldn’t even know who the hell MC2 was. Also, Abstracker spins a great set! Here’s his mixtape, for Bassadelic, this month – (and its got some real dope tunes on it, from Freddy Todd to MC2 to Flatmate! Glitch Hop from two continents! (Now we just need to turn on the other five continents… And yes, I’m counting that continent with nothing but penguins. We need to get penguins glitchin’ out hardcore:
