Son Raw‘s got a lighter up in the air. I have no idea what Guido’s been doing for the past few years. Reaching level 99 in every single Final Fantasy game in the series? Watching too much Anime? Arguing with Joker about the merits of mauve? Who knows, but thankfully, the wait is over and […]

Nothing fancy, just something for the sweltering last stretch of Summer. Guido drops a 30 minute mix of chilling freon filled with remixes of Aaliyah, 2Pac, a Floating Points track, some Nujabes, and Jessie Ware. Also, a remix so good that Ja Rule does not deserve it. No need to say something slick. Just download […]

Guido’s vision of “Afrika” starts with the drums. Smacked Djembes incite the ritual around the 30 second mark, ceremonial thumps that set the stage for occult keys and synthesizers that sound like they were stolen from a lost Swizz Beatz vault. “Down Bottom” meets dubstep was once the mathematics in the orchestral lab. But while […]

Son Raw is sick. Bring him some soup, damn it. Guido’s 2011 was so quiet that we almost forgot about him after a brilliant debut album. Anidea is still a startling listen, the kind of auteurist release that still stands strong after the fall of its micro-scene and one that undoubtedly justifies Guido’s forthcoming attempt […]

Guido continues to throw his hoodie in the arena for the award of best songwriter in bass music. That’s a rarely used word for instrumental tunes, but what makes Guy Middleton unique is how carefully he’s attuned to melody, odd filigrees of sound, and bizarre instrumentation. He coaxes sounds out of synths like a great […]

Time slips slowly and America stays  salivating over Pauly D and Clams Casino as its preferred production Guidos. The former is affably idiotic. The latter has sufficient bass. Neither are fucking with Bristol’s Guy Middleton, who has not only thrown down the gauntlet to other guidos, but also to Guy Ritchie and Kate Middleton. Guido’s […]

Since dropping Anidea last May, the Bristol-born Italian epithet better known as Guido has largely lain dormant. Presumably, he’s been soaking up some sun, smoking some spliffs, and strutting alongside the Shore to the delight of the gorilla-worshiping population. If only he could get on  MTV like his brethren. That’s the thing about Guido. Other […]

Right in the time for the second season of Jersey Shore, Bristol’s best (until Joker releases a full-length), Guido drops a podcast for XLR8R, full of some of his lesser-known tunes and tracks from Gemmy, Peverelist, and Pinch. I assume that most of the readership is unfamiliar with those names. They’re a trio of British […]

Sach O really likes the horn sound in Swizz Beats’ “Down Bottom“(Nhjic). Hopefully, this is the last time Bristol producer Guido ever has to suffer a Joker comparison. Though both hail from Dubstep’s second home, are approximately the same age and have been known to bust out G-Funk-inspired synthesizers in a genre previously known for […]

The great Fact enlists Guido (see here and here) to drop a mix for them, featuring an array of tracks from his latest Beautiful Complications EP, his Pinch peers, and sundry other nonsense. He also dispels the rumors that he will make a guest appearance on next week’s Jersey Shore. Tracklist below the jump. Download: […]
