This month will see Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles debut his new live set, restricting himself to a small selection of analogue equipment such as the Moog Voyager, Prophet and tape delay, as he supports Luke Abbott on his UK tour.

In celebration, Rival Consoles offers his fans a free download of the title track 'Odyssey' – a reflection of his quest to create atmosphere and space from minimal arrangements. His new EP also features label friend Peter Broderick and is available now on Erased Tapes.

You may well have already noticed my mentions of Rob Clouth.  He’s one of the best producers there is, in my opinion.  Such original, hyper-detailed beautiful sound design and melodic forms, the complete package really.  So I’m really excited to have him join the Mesh label with me, with his first EP out today - Full EP stream and downloads here: https://lnk.to/1TransitionEP

The “Transition” EP is a summary of the production techniques Rob has developed over the years, and is accompanied by an audio-visual system Rob created which presents every sound he’s ever worked with, all 50,000 of them in mad granulated chaos, here: http://www.robclouth.com/transition


His approach of creating his own software and unusual techniques shines through musically, and I hope some of you enjoy it as much as I do.

For ambient lovers I suggest checking the title “Transition” track first, and for those of you after something more club-oriented then “Shedding Layers” is, well, try it out and you’ll see what happens, it’s been one of the biggest tracks in my sets of recent months.

Lots more amazing music for the label on the way soon!

“Whether releasing tracks as Abstract Source or through his many collaborations, you get the idea that this brilliant artist and teacher will touch the lives of many people. His steady flow of directed and passionate energy takes the form of a wonderfully unpredictable musical output"

Ashley Casselle
(Global Underground | Junior Boys Own)

Music means everything to Jules and after a chat about the many layers of his career, he reveals more than a few surprises. From his past DJ exploits playing on a desert island in Malaysia, a Chinese temple for NYE or, closer to home at Dalston's bustling Superstore.

He possesses a unique energy which fills his long white walled studio in Brick Lane, enthusing about the artists he’s collaborated with, like techno pioneer Russ Gabriel on 'The Return EP'. He's most at home among LED lights, flickering buttons and pulsing switches, while drum machines and sequencers roll effortlessly into action to reveal new tracks.

After a spell running the label Abstrakt Dance with techno kingpin Colin Dale, Jules is now focussing on his Abstract Source sound. From the lush house of ‘Day to Night’ on Chicago’s Large Records to the gyrating drum & bass of ‘Tell Me’ on London’s V Recordings.

His music has found its way into some esteemed places: Peter Gabriel's Cue Songs have picked up the rights to his catalogue while Finlay Cowan (Pink Floyd Illustrator) has commissioned him to soundtrack a new project, the intriguing 'Subway Slim'.

Jules is currently developing a music therapy project aptly named DMT (Digital Music Therapy) which stems from a recent bout of insomnia. He has already delivered sound workshops to over 200 people and an album is on its way.
