TRAFFIC – born from the chaos of the concrete jungle.
The rush, the noise, the endless flow – up, down, over, through.
Engines, horns, footsteps, voices – all colliding into a restless rhythm.
This is the sound of the city moving.

TRAFFIC

Auren Klyne-Wander-(Mellon Place Records)

Lapse [Minimal Groove Concept]

There was a low end rumble as the music began to trickle downstairs and into the basement. Gathered in the cellar there was a small crowd, amidst the fog and dust they began to dance in time with the flurries of percussion and the twinge of electronics which echoed deep into the night. They would be here for a long time, a unit inspired by the deep, sophisticated roar of each element. Their feet would move in time, back and forth, again and again. 

Flippen Disks is a new record label to emerge from Amsterdam, the imprint is run by Monty who also appears on the debut EP. He delivers one solo track and one collaborative effort alongside PTDD for a release which is distinguished and intelligent. The EP features forward thinking percussion and danceable material whilst is also hugely listenable and unique. 

This one is special.

“Symptoms of Love, a project by Detroit duo Ryan Spencer (Freakish Pleasures) and Ben Christensen (Sector 7G), present “Foam EP” scheduled to drop in January 2020 on Sydney label Planet Trip Records. This is the team’s second release, a follow-up to their 2019 “Eye Contact” (SOBO, Montreal). “Foam EP” reflects a contrast of the high-energy late nights and laid-back afternoons in the sprawling echo-chamber of Detroit. 

Recorded over the course of two years, the duo stack live instrumentation onto the vast synth and drum machine collection in Christensen’s home studio. The tracks are finished with explorations into sample-based wormholes that deliver a truly diverse EP. The sounds cruise through balearic and streetsoul inspired smoothness, machine funk dance floor jams, and bleepy percussive workouts.

This five tracker holds a mood and a groove for every hour of the dance; be it at peak time, sun up or sun down. Receiving early support from Jex Opolis, Millios Kaiser, CC:DISCO!, Lauren Hansom, DJ D.DEE, Ben Fester, Ruf Dug, Bayete & more…It’s a no brainer tip to start 2020 right!

The Helsinki based collective Free Shelter, consisting of Miro-Benji, Aake Kivalo, Aaron Maple and DJ Margerita, are mostly known for their edit releases (with support from every corner in the world) and their monthly radio show on IDA Radio. 
Their sound usually range from one extreme to the other. Whether it be the tackiest of guilty-pleasure disco to the rougher sounds of the spectrum in the form of photo-trance and modern breakbeat, they’re more than willing to take the task at their own hand. 
For this Discoteca Podcast mix, the quartet showcase the listener what a club night à la Free Shelter would be like…

Free Shelter - Discoteca Podcast 62

Rich with FM synthesis, infectious rhythms and evocative motifs, Rester Partir transports us to a fantasised Africa, found onstage at a Lausanne Theatre in 1985. Scoring a story about a 19th Century French missionary’s trip to Timbuktu, Swiss composer Louis Crelier created his own sonic landscape, capturing the exoticism and otherness of an imaginary Mali. Though the hypnotic rhythms and cascading mallets conjure images of the continent, the queasy keys, dubby idents and synthetic sonatas suggest something more interplanetary - picture James T. Kirk and Spock beaming down into the ochre dust of a ruined city. 

Aided and abetted by a selection of ambient interludes, jazzy diversions and polyrhythmic excerpts from Crelier’s film work, as well as the exceptionally Balearic Deep In The Dale from TV series Alpine Academy, the largely unreleased compositions on Rester Partir finally break the fourth wall to find the wider audience they deserve.
