Madd Rod is a sound explorer setting no boundaries for his explorations in music production. With this long-awaited return to Inner Shah, the label boss unveils the work he has been working on, showing futurism through retro aesthetics.

The EP — named after the lead single, Against Hate Speech — is a collection of three dance tracks paced by strong basslines and vintage percussion.

The first track exalts a groovy mood, recurring to acid synths and bouncy stabs. A hypnotic riff drives the piece while rhythmic elements come and go, only making room for spacey leads that extol its aesthetics.

Face to Face relies on heavy toms and a fast bassline to set a rather dark tone that clashes with its dreamy chords. The track tells the story of two strangers who meet in a sweaty room, make eye contact and engage in a dance that lasts until sunrise.

"Echoes and Illusions" is poetically divided between bright vocal stabs and dystopic leads. Its dark tone is not a call to war but to the frontline — instrumentally shouting: life is good, the world can wait, and you deserve it.

The EP redefines the spectrum of Madd Rod's soundscape, giving hints of what to expect next. The promise is clear: faster and hypnotizing rhythms and a return to the past with the eyes fiercely set on the future.

True to the name, Undefined Pattern defies musical norms with "TS Voyage." This track serves as a tribute to the artist's non-conformist journey through life, an anthem addressing the struggles and aspirations of the transgender community.

Fresh off the heels of their second release on Ellum/Lone Romantic (the imprints belonging to fellow Dallasite MACEO PLEX), Paradigm Shift bring their signature sound to Crash Planet with "Talk To Me" and "Love Power".

"Talk To Me" blends otherworldly soundscapes, a haunting vocal, familiar lyrics, and a fat "below the belt groove" to dazzling effect. It is a cry for peace, unity and understanding in a volatile world. "Talk To Me" has been a secret weapon in the DJ sets of label boss Red Eye for a couple of years now. Every play sends punters to the booth asking for the ID. CRASH PLANET is thrilled to finally make it available to the world!

"Love Power" sees the duo reflect on notions of electro rhythms, and hypnotic/drift away vibes, layered under thunderous synth leads. It is as effective in earpods as on sound systems.

James Rodrigo is Waltervelt, the next hot young talent to land on the mighty Ellum Audio label. Born in Joinville, Brazil, this 25-year-old has already been involved in the dance scene for a decade and has made his mark at the key clubs in South America. His well-formed sound is a smooth fusion of Italo disco, techno and electro that swells over you to make for immersive listening. 

Adventurous opener ‘Lunar Operation’ is just that, a superb sonic trip built on rugged bass rumbles with old school cowbells and a real sense of cosmic drama from the synths and strings. It’s expansive, colourful and as cerebral as it is moving. 

This is another masterful EP on Maceo Plex’s agenda-setting Ellum Audio.
