COV Premiere: Bal5000 'Untitled Acid'

Bálint Forgács AKA BAL 5000 started out producing drum & bass, but that was a long time ago now. These days he's ploughing a much more eclectic and distinctive furrow that he rather eloquently describes as "retro-futuristic spaced-out house, mixed with lost in the desert psychedelia". In practice, that means 'The Lake' is an understated, unhurried affair sitting somewhere between Balearica, deep prog and downtempo electronica in its original form, before being given a couple of predictably fine dancefloor rerubs courtesy of Balearic disco don Pete 'Reverso 68' Herbert, while bonus cuts 'Untitled Acid' and 'Untitled Electro' shouldn't really need any further explanation!

Feed Your Head Guest Mix: Phil Wade

Flash Atkins has pulled together a crack team of musicians for Sanza Mibale Ya Bo Pemi. It is a tribute to the golden age of afro disco, when the sounds of 70s New York found their way to the continent and fused with local musical styles and rhythms.

Felix Ngindu sings in his native Lingala language from DRC over a locked bass, congas, keys, percussion, rhythm guitar and a brass section from Haggis Horn's Atholl Ransome and Malcolm Strachan. Funk, disco, soul and jazz all blend for a a peak time jam.

The Flash Dub strips things back to the rhythm section for heads down, dubby action and a tracky take that still packs a dance floor punch.

The incomparable Bosq steps up for remix duties and knocks it out the park. Layered drums and percussion give things a more latin swing before the beats break, piano enters the fray and it's a tropical funk party starter all the way.

The dub does the beat thing, rocking a hard groove for the dancers. Hands in the air? F**ck yeah!

After releasing several EP on Accents Records, ARTS, and Diffuse Reality. Pablo Diarra aka Saïph launches his own label Songe Anima records (Sonam rec) with this first release Griffe Sonam EP.

The EP's surprising influences include techno, contemporary trance and ambient, with acoustic recordings drums somewhere between, Afrobeat, jazz and Maracatu, and colder textured pads. This EP feels both grounded and ethereal.

The whole low-end spectrum stares us in a very dub-like direction, the snare, Rim, hats game is as swift as it is aerial, while the electro sound design elements take us, through experimental effect, into a vast, hushed soundscape.

The EP can't be summed up in a single musical style, and explores musical universes we've rarely heard together. The resulting unity is a mature, rhythmically complex sound, an insider's music that's easy to access because it's so danceable.

'After Trane'is an explicit tribute to John Coltrane. Here, the main lead evokes a sound somewhere between trumpet, flute and organ. Its polyrhythmic tangle with a second lead to the 5th can evoke a Balkan fanfare, a Celtic ritornello, West African chants, or even an Oriental dimension; there's something quite universal about this appearance; whose main characteristic is to produce a trance effect. The closing solo may evoke something of Joe Zawinul, and in some aspects takes the allure of a Coltranian pastiche in its articulation. You'll even recognize a brief citation of the Impressions theme, breaking through the mix and setting the track on fire at 5''33.

EP79 Joyce Muniz & Friends Feat. Italo Brutalo (Berlin)

In a small, aging factory nestled between rusted warehouses, the machines groaned under the weight of decades of labour.

However, there was one machine—an old lathe—who refused to surrender. At first, it creaked and sputtered when the new software was installed, its wheels grinding against the sleek interface. But as the new technology clicked and whirred around it, something extraordinary happened: the lathe began to adapt.

It shimmered beneath the glow of the floodlights.

The adaptation had begun.

JKriv channels deep grooves on a new EP for Rocksteady Disco – a stellar EP reminding us of the good old days of house, funk and disco. This one’s got soul.

PREMIERE: JKriv - Adaptation [Rocksteady Disco]

This mix is dedicated to the artists that have helped us dance, smile, cuddle, wave our hands in the air etc. at Andrew Weatherall’s Convananza Festival.

The entire mix is made up from some of their tracks, their AKA tracks, and the remixes.
Not just the main stage, but the pre-party and after-party DJs/performers, both previous years and this year.

We salute you!

Enjoy – Peace, love and acid house x

Bristol’s thriving underground continues to turn heads, and this time it’s with the debut of emerging artist variable_self on Hammer’s ever-reliable Remmah label. With the Stone Jam EP, a widescreen three-tracker, variable_self delivers a bold statement: a forward-thinking take on acid-soaked hardware and analogue textures that connects dance music’s past, present, and future.
‘Prism State’ sharpens the edges, offering crystalline electro steeped in cascading synths and blissful harmonics, a trip that invites both movement and immersion.
From the South West to the world, variable_self stands out as a new force, drawing on nostalgia only to drive things forward.
A live performer, producer, and DJ, variable_self is known for blending vintage and modern sounds into sets and performances that push both energy and emotion—from melancholic introspection to peak-time euphoria. With a deep passion for 303s and hardware, their live acid bass jams have lit up Bristol institutions like Motion, The Love Inn, Lost Horizon, and Exchange, as well as their residency at the Red Room.
Their last EP, BDGRL SDGRL, showcased experimental textures and spaced-out vocals crafted on vintage machines. Now, with the Stone Jam EP on Remmah, variable_self sharpens their signature style: lush synths, driving drum machines, deep basslines, and unmistakable acid melodies.
