101BPM

101 Beats Per Minute – New electronic music every Thursday

A new semi-anonymous project from Countersunk brings 21 electronic music producers together

The project sees the likes of Ambulance, Alan O’Boyle, Jape, Somadrone and Sunken Foal each producing a piece of music at 101BPM, with one track released anonymously on Bandcamp under the 101BPM 101 Beats Per Minute name every Thursday.

101 Beats Per Minute is a collection of electronic music producers working in varying techniques and styles. Each week a new track is released through Bandcamp accompanied by a new photographic work by artist David Cleary. Subscribers on Bandcamp can download/stream a new track every Thursday (plus the Countersunk back catalogue & future releases). Tracks will also be available for non-subscribers.

Here’s the first release from last week:

Each artist was given the brief of composing a piece of music at 101bpm and then sharing it amongst the other contributors to create a collective hub for inspiration before release. We’re hoping to create a dialogue between a bunch of music makers who might normally work in isolation, meanwhile shining a light on some of the talent currently exciting us.
