HAMMER - THINK ABOUT ME
ITALO HIITS, 22 OCTOBER 2021
BUY: https://fanlink.to/IH002

Hammer returns to his nascent Italo Hiits label for the second release of Hi-NRG grooves made in an Italo-inspired period of furiously productive creativity. Road tested on Hammer's global livestream at London’s Saatchi Gallery and his supporting set for Bicep at their recent sold out Brixton Academy date, this latest pair of effervescent disco cuts are fully designed for dancing, and a taste of many more to come from both Hammer and Italo Hiits.

“Think About Me brings together my love for high energy disco grooves, big euphoric vocals and swinging beats. Hypnotic synths drive this track along, as it straddles that sweet spot between old and new.

"Paraiso Tan is a more modern outlook on this sound, with huge pulsing sub bass, contrasting retro top lines and a thumping Linn Drum. There’s true indulgence laced throughout these tracks, and they’re all club ready!”
- Rory Hamilton aka Hammer, September 2021

New York’s toucan sounds ready ‘Playground Compilation (Vol. 3)’, featuring Shifting Gears, Haruka Salt, John Barera, and more.

Comprising a mammoth seventeen tracks and being released exclusively on Bandcamp with all proceeds going directly to artists, toucan sounds’ ‘Playground Compilation (Vol. 3)’ compiles various sounds and genres from label regulars such as Haruka Salt, Shifting Gears, Toribio, as well as newcomers to the imprint John Barera, Laenz, Matt FX, and more.

The compilation aims to encapsulate the underground sound of New York City, with many of the tracks and contributors deeply rooted in its musical lifeblood. ’Same Ole Thang’ by Whatever, Girl aka Louie
“Balo” Guzman & Bill Coleman was pulled off a cassette from the mid-90s (remixed and remastered for today) while the two were releasing records on Strictly Rhythm and Eightball Records. All the way to the 2020s, with Love Letters, who has appeared on some of Brooklyn’s top underground labels like Mister Saturday Night, Allergy Season, and The Bunker. They all join toucan sounds for the first time alongside artists like fleet.dreams and Escaflowne, who often play b2b, and whose fantastic releases on Sorry Records have seen them pushed forward in the local Brooklyn scene.

Overall, from the hazy opening house jam ‘can’t stop the moment’ through to the washed-out electronica of derek muro’s ‘ramble3 (Balearic Dub)’, the compilation successful exemplifies the open-minded ethos of the label. By emphasizing a focus on the local talent forged at their YouYooCanWoo Studios, as well as artists from further afield, the compilation is an assured collection of exciting music from the wide-ranging friends and family of the fast-rising imprint.

Brooklyn’s toucan sounds are a label at the forefront of emerging sounds and artists. Curated by French Horn Rebellion out of the You Too Can Woo studios in New York, the imprint has been championing acts such as Haruka Salt, Toribio, Brandon Markell Holmes, and many more since its inception in 2019.

Dance music supergroups are few and far between these days, so a trio of expert dance exponents have formed to redress the balance.  Extra Credit is a new project brimming with the expertise and musical chops of Joe Goddard, Marcus Marr and Justin Strauss.   

‘Emotional Make-Up’, their debut single, lands on Ali Tillet’s Warm imprint, bringing with it the last rays of summer, as they jam out a feel good, end of the night, future house classic!

Australian hot property, Loods, follows up a well received single for the Classic label, with a remix and dub mix that accelerates the tempo and drops a hooky organ riff over its rolling beats.

Sensational artwork for the release comes courtesy of Bráulio Amado, the NYC based graphic designer who has produced stunning visuals in the past for artists such as Beck, Róisín Murphy, Frank Ocean and Robyn.

Between Goddard, Marr and Strauss, over three decades of music has poured from these musical minds, including releases on Strictly Rhythm, Emotive, DFA, Greco-Roman and Domino.
