2ndSun’s 2014 “Shimmer” EP was a landmark moment on many counts – our first Tessier-Ashpool Recordings release, their most accomplished work at the time, and easily our most prominent outing. A “jackin’ house exemplar”, as we called it then, it set itself apart as one of very few sustainable, enduring and timeless models for UK house/techno splicing, accruing standout radio support (from the likes of Shadow Child and Skream) , chart success, and crossover validity (gracing the tracklist of one of Armin van Buuren’s Armada Music compilations). 

So how do you top that? As it turns out, if you’re Olly Stork and Steve Burnett tinkering away in the studio, you just do.

This year’s “Quanta” EP, titled as such as shorthand for “quantum miscellanea”, sees the boys perfecting the science of their approach as they tackle more abstract subject matter, familiarize themselves further with core Tessier-Ashpool tenets, and absorb our team’s most recent developments. Consequently, “Quanta” is their most musically ambitious, thematically expansive and stylistically versatile oeuvre to date, spanning four tracks of expertly-mitigated twists and turns.

“Drift” is a modernized electro affair, drenched in leaking neon sludge and adorned with 80’s funk retrofits. Junglist acid bass squelches interpolate with drum machine antics atop a syncopated jam, as lush and… well… drifting pads fade in and cut out, creating a TAR-specific, Golden-Age-sci-fi narrative.
“Control” is a tenebrous techno workout, affixing cone-ripping acidic reso-sweeps and instructional automaton chants to an ever-mutating rhythmic environment – sometimes driven by dotted kick grooves, sometimes derailed by frenetic percussive rattles, and always tethered to the upbeat of a stoic, ligneous snare.

The first pure 4/4 jaunt of the record, “Divisive Circuit” is true to its name, conflicted and schizophrenic, shifting from live analogue acid jamming at one moment, to gutter house histrionics the next.

Closer and title track “Quanta”, a nod to the acid and/or ambient house of pioneers like Orbital, The KLF, Kevin Saunderson or The Orb, is a breezy, almost-balearic stroll through the combined chaise-longue dreams of many a poolside aficionado. Sensuous. Ethereal. Seemingly eternal.

"Sword". A deep, trippy journey through sound. Layered with hypnotic textures and unexpected twists, this track is built to pull you in and keep you locked. Heavy atmospheres meet sharp details, creating a sonic blade that cuts through the noise and captivates your ears.

https://sevenhillsrecords.bandcamp.com/releases

This is a reissue of a short-lived and obscure UK dance music label. A compilation of tracks featured on releases across 3 EP’s between 1991 and 1993 incorporating recently emergent dub techno and progressive acid house sounds. Nation of Noise was conceived in the early 90's, following a meeting of minds between the producer Django and vocalist Jon Martin at the legendary Soho institution: The Brain. 

Plate 1 is a fully remastered reissue of the first Nation of Noise record - Xes Noiz, featuring 4 locked grooves. 

Plate 2 takes two tracks off both the Lockgroove and Super Bubble EP's. One side is smooth, after-hours deep house whilst the other reaches for two progressive, acid cuts. 

Fun facts: 

- Feel the Joy received airtime by Jon Peel on Radio 1 and Elvis Stole My Space Hopper was a favourite of Colin Faver and Colin Dale on KISS FM 
- Kris Needs awarded Xes Noiz record of the week in NME, putting it in the same group as Weatherall and Aphex! 
- Riley Reinholdt raved about Xes Noiz in legendary German publication Spex and travelled to U.K. to interview Jon and Django. 
- Piano Tilt was a playlist favourite of Derrick May 
- Progressive acid house pioneers like Scott Hardkiss began lauding the Nation of Noise imports on the West-Coast sound systems of the San Francisco Bay Area. 
- The A3 of Xes Noiz was a minor hit on the emerging jungle/breakbeat scene. DJ's used to pitch it up before Metalheadz and Photek really defined that abstract sound. 

Nation of Noise 91 - 93 is the first of many records to be released by Seven Hills.

Seven Hills Presents Nation of Noise 91-93 [PREVIEWS]

Buy ltd. hand-stamped 12" vinyl & digital EP: mechatronica.bandcamp.com/album/mechatronica-white-2

2nd release in the limited vinyl White series dedicated to sounds across synth, new wave, EBM, italo and electro, comes in the form of a split EP by Danish producer Nixxon and Italian dance wave wizard Franz Scala.

Nixxon's gloomy, cosmic electro slow-roller opens Mechatronica White 2, followed by the heavier sounds of West, driven by razor-sharp synth stabs, voodoo percussion and a colossal bassline to boot.

On the flip, Franz Scala meshes italo, acid and spacey synth grooves into two effective anthems for the floor, destined to move bodies and transport minds.

Simmering in the North of England, a collaboration between two artists has been steadily taking hold. With Radio 1, RinseFM, XLR8R, Thump, and more getting behind their sound, 2ndSun have flourished in a relatively short period of time.

After announcing themselves with 2013's "Falling" on a vinyl only Well Rounded Edits release, they set about gathering speed with some well received remixes. Following this up with "Bespoked", another 12" exclusive offering on Ben Pearce's P&S imprint, and with "You Don't Make Proper Sounds" included on the latest Black Butter compilation in July 2014, the boys went on to top the JunoDownload charts with their "Shimmer" release on Tessier-Ashpool Recordings, gaining support from pivotal figures such as Skream, Shadow Child, and Monki along the way. 

The past couple of years have seen 2ndSun play shows around the world, from Ibiza to Tokyo. With a string of releases penciled in for the coming 12 months, more remixes forthcoming, and accomplished back to back sets varying in style from house, techno, disco and soul; these are ones to keep an eye on.
