20/20 Vision are proud to present 'Fragments Of Reality’ - a brand new label homing in on tripped out shades of house and techno curated by Luther Vine (Phonica Records).

The opening track comes from London underground circuits’ stalwart and the Fabric resident Voigtmann. The owner of Subsequent, the label that in itself over the last couple of years has broken a lot of new ground , delivers a big room bomb. ‘Automatic Chemistry’ will soak you in pulsating baselines and acid tinged minimalist breaks.

‘Receptivity’ jolts you in an altogether different direction. The track that comes to you courtesy of Montreal-based multi-instrumentalist Priori is a tripped out soundscape of kaleidoscopic surprises. Yet the lush cascading sounds and pentatonic hints demand a delirious limb movement from even the most reserved of listeners. The magic that Priori brings on board has been shaped by his prior exploits eternalised on highly acclaimed releases for Dust World and NAFF.

Flip the wax ang get a load of ‘Expulsion’, a throbbing Dub Techno masterpiece crafted by Rotterdam based duo D&S. With a nod to genre’s pioneers and echoes of analogue Detroit constantly present the Dutchmen’s creation boasts silly concentration of energy begging for a prime-time attention. The talent also comes with a pedigree. D&S had their stellar work noticed and pressed by Girada Unlimited and Space Shepherd labels to name but a few.

Your new essential record bag filler closes with Rupert Marine’s blistering Acid Tech workout entitled ‘Drifter’. Fresh jacking grooves that Hamburg based musician packs in this particular production are both airy and tight. Surely it’s a track worthy of rave aboard an intergalactic Starship on the merit of it’s futuristic brilliance alone.

PREMIERE: Boulderhead - Bread Butter Noodles Spice (feat. Overnite Oates) [Limousine Dream]

‘Fern Jelly’ shifts gears, taking us through dense, lush, and sticky foliage. A cacophony of lutes, flutes, and tropical synths effortlessly glide together in this humid broken beat bender–paying homage to a childhood gully with anthropomorphic beetles and singing bats.

Having hunkered down since his last release ‘Breathing Puddles’ in 2021, Cydux is back with ‘Helios,’ a five-tracker expanding upon his ethereal palette with a selection of dewy tunes drawing influence from dub techno, acid exotica, piano breaks, proggy house to reverb-soaked wave—an iridescent journey for the senses.

'Helios' EP releases on May 3rd on all digital platforms.

Born out of a love for extended live performance and late night studio jams, Adam Collins' and Marky Star's much revered Omni A.M. collaboration released their debut LP 'Key' 23 years ago, also launching their label Euphoria Records. A very limited amount of CDs were pressed and sold exclusively at Euphoria events throughout Chicago at the time, and with Omni A.M. and Euphoria's stock rising over the following decades, this timeless classic has become a Holy Grail amongst music heads and collectors alike, as the eye watering discogs prices will attest.

Although heavily influenced by the Chicago house scene and it's luminaries Derrick Carter, Gemini, DJ Heather and Tyree Cooper, the pair embarked on a remarkable mission to record an album that owes much to their love of The Orb and KLF, the experimentalism of Psychic TV and Cabaret Voltaire, industrial favourites Skinny Puppy and the mind bending dub of Lee 'Scratch' Perry, through to San Fran's West Coast house scene and the Tech-House sounds emanating from South London in the late '90s.

LP opener 'space horse' rolls out the breaks before swathes of synths and sonic trickery abound, 'wo ist meine bier?' is characterised by haunting IDM-esque melodies, underpinned by the chug of a 4/4 beat. Over onto the flip where Villalobos favourite 'naked groove' unleashes an infectious rhythm, bass riff, synths and vocal, before 'splendid idea' moves into a more tripped out acidic territory, keeping the musical elements and energy to the fore. On disc 2, the aptly titled 'fusion' turns up the breakbeat heat, adds a hypnotic dub-funk b-line, building into an inspirational lead line. 'v.23's other-worldly throb neatly segues into the moody burning breaks of 'bitch', and closing track 'ready to know' is playful and confident in it's execution, without ever losing any depth or substance.

What comes across is an unwavering dedication to creativity and pushing the boundaries of what's sonically possible, whilst defying the genres through a unique and essential collection of musical moments and psychedelic jams underpinned by beats that deliver the funk. These tracks have stood the test of time and have remained exciting and relevant throughout.

This is the first time these tracks have been released on vinyl and digitally .The double LP features exclusive edits and never heard before versions, and the digital release includes the additional full length version of the episodic 'showdown' and previously unreleased 'touchable' in all it's deep house glory, lovingly remastered by Lawrie Curve Pusher from the original DATs and artwork recreated from, and inspired by the original release.
