Episode 16: “Bust This Bust That” by Professor Kliq

After all of the Korean Girl Group music from IPL, Dave and I agreed we needed something high quality and very old school to bring this episode in. Enter Professor Kliq.

Raised in the west suburbs of Chicago, Professor Kliq (Mike Else) underwent a lengthy and profound evolution both musically and mentally. With a variety of names, he explored any kind of electronic music he developed an affinity for. With influences ranging from different trip-hop DJ's like Krush, Shadow and Cam to more experimental and noise-based artists like Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, he combines these modern elements with those he learned from music theory and his upbringing on jazz as well as 80's pop and electronic music.

Professor Kliq has been making music since 1996 with his first Casio keyboard and a tape recorder. Slowly but surely, training himself to play piano by ear and developing full pieces, the dream maintains an everlasting becoming into reality.

Episode 15: “Quittin' Time” by Patrick Lee

Sometimes you don't need words. We've all played a game of League of Legends to victory without typing a word and it's a perfect experience. Patrick Lee does the same with our latest feature track. No words. Just perfect funk to put a smile on your face.

In his own words, Patrick started on pots and pans, graduated to the trampoline, moved onto piano, learned a little guitar, did a lot of skateboarding, bought a Van Halen tape or two, played in middle school grunge bands, graduated to high school ska bands, migrated to college funk bands, majored in piano at CU, played a show at a go-kart track, cooked up a storm, recorded as much as possible, bought a rhodes, started collecting keyboards, won six Grammys, collaborated with Notorious B.I.G. a few times, won "Remixer of The Year" in SPIN, traveled the globe with the Globetrotters, invented no less than thirty-three different dance crazes, reinvented reggae, built a handmade schoolbus out of balsa wood, toured Middle Earth in said bus, started a rehab center for orphaned ducks, mastered the art of playing in g minor, invited Pearl Jam to open up for his 1994 arena tour and was turned down, lost a leg, and that brings us up to today.

Episode 12: “What It's All About” by Dexter Britain

League of Legends is awesome. We like to think that our show, Low Elo, is pretty cool too. It only makes sense that we find music just as cool as we are. Let me introduce to you Dexter Britain, the artis behind this week's track "What It's All About".

In his own words, Dexter is a composer, producer and songwriter working on creating contemporary classical music, film scores, and popular music /songs for chart release. Also he is a creative director amongst other things. His music is very cool and deserves greater attention that what we can really give it. Check him out at dexterbritain.co.uk.
