Nathan Homan - Travel Camp (BAR09)

Label head Yesca asks you 2 questions with this club-focused EP.

"Where's The Grit Gone?" is a barebones, percussion-heavy roller with a simple yet unforgiving bassline, with a nod to a classic that'll have you asking the same question, where did the grit go in house music?

"Are They Staring At Me?" is exactly what the hypnotic synths and crawling bassline will have you asking as you dance away your paranoia to the alternating rhythms the signature Yesca drums provide.

Both tracks are available everywhere on May 10th, pre-order now on Bandcamp, see you in the club.

Mama is here. This producer hailing from Italy has been making waves in the underground music community landing a strong string of releases on the prolific labels for you to check out. Now it is time for him to present to the world of “Sottopasso”, the 4 track EP with quite wide range of sound yet all absolutely in line with vision of the label and with utmost touch of freshness starting from A1 and finishing to B2. All the tracks names are with Italian flavor and is very close to the artist’s heart and resonate with the memories and experiences that personally shaped the man we are witnessing today. The artwork as always executed by the legend of the graffiti art Gkoner, which is showing a spooky entrance that one is about to enter if one dares too. This work has found its home on the label with a sense of proudness of Mama and excitement for it to find homes to its rightful owners brings a lot of positive feelings.

Label welcomes Tunisian-based artist Ahmet Mecnun to the label for the first time with open arms and with sincere hope it is not the last due to high level admiration for his artistic output. Ahmet has crafted M.E.S.S.A with dark flavour oozing throughout the EP that has unified the audio trips together in a complete story. The remix duties of the A-side track have been taken by none other than Uruguayan mastermind Marcos Coya who has provided his take on this matter and has done it flawlessly so. The synergy between the two artists from different backgrounds and cultures but same ideology of music has resulted in M.E.S.S.A to take the shape it has now. The dark times are coming so it is best to go into the loop state of mind to avoid or to welcome psycho override depends on the mood and current feeling one might be going through.

Hicham - Timeless Series #10

Ahmet Mecnun, is a Tunisian DJ who began mixing his first tracks at the age of 14. He grew up surrounded by a variety of musical influences, which allowed him to captivate crowds with his unique sound. Initially focusing on Deep Tech and Minimal Techno, Ahmet expanded his repertoire over time to include Tech House, Dark Tech, and other electronic music styles.

In 2008, Ahmet ventured into music production, collaborating with renowned labels such as Tip Tap Records, Expectancy, Ole Music, OnOff Recordings, La Pera, Phosphenes Lab, and Undertechnical. His consistent output helped him earn a respected place in the electronic music industry. Influenced by iconic DJs like Marco Carola, Marc Antona, Paco Osuna, and Richie Hawtin, Ahmet continued to refine his craft.

A pivotal moment in Ahmet’s career occurred in 2023 when he underwent a significant shift in his musical direction. He embraced electro, acid, and breakbeat as his primary styles, exploring fresh, experimental sounds. That year, he released his first track on vinyl with Terrazzo, followed by his first EP on vinyl with Tvinyl later in the year. With more vinyl releases on the way, Ahmet's new artistic direction is poised to make a lasting impact on the electronic music scene.

Ahmet’s talent has taken him beyond Tunisia, where he has performed at notable international gigs in Paris, Austria, Madrid, and Algeria, showcasing his ability to connect with diverse audiences. His work has been praised and supported by industry giants such as Marco Carola, Paco Osuna, Stefano Noferini, Nicole Moudaber, and Leon, securing his place as one of the leading figures in the electronic music world.
