# EB Premiere: Alphabets – IV Our favorite DIY Los Angeles label **Deathbomb Arc** is gearing up for some serious Summer cassette releases in a variety of sounds; from the experimental R&B electronics of **[Yola Fatoush][1] **to the harsh noise/hip-hop of [**Clipping**][2] (featuring, among others, Jonathan Snipes of the godly **Captain Ahab**). It's the latest junt from Denver's **[Alphabets][3]**, however, that mosts excites us. This kid is probably one of the busiest underground musicians around, at least in terms of output---there was a time when he was releasing a new album every month (for free!), every one containing audio gold. The minimalistic beats on Sweatbee Dance Mix stay true to his formula of experimental, sub-ADD techno, but hearing it on cassette takes it to another level entirely. Here, it seems, is the proper home for Colin Ward's strange and wonderful dance music: tape wrapped in plastic, an outdated concept (like techno, perhaps?) refreshed by a shining face. We're pleased to bring you a glimpse of Sweatbee Dance Mix in the form of 'IV'. As the title suggests, it's the fourth track of five, a nearly twelve-minute opus of bouncing, chirping rhythms that build and build without giving release. Such a tease! Deathbomb's Summer 2012 cassette batch comes out September 11th. We highly suggest you [order them][4].
