Label Blurb:
Alex Blaxx drops four original tracks for Dessous Recordings following a couple of very well received releases on Buzzin' Fly and Sccucci Manucci. Blaxx now resides in Manchester by way of Cape Town - both cities with strong house music credentials. Blaxx himself excels in lush house productions with plenty of soul and a lot of dance floor knowledge.
The EP's title track 'It’s Been Done Before' gives a healthy nod to the hugely fertile period of New York house in the 1990s, but retains a freshness and spark that sets it apart from many of his contemporaries. It's highly musical and organic, with hugely effective hooks, builds and pads that will bring smiles to the faces of dancers worldwide.
'Gilmore Heureux' is a darker affair, with a raw evolving groove with a Detroit flavor. It's got plenty of grit, and a few innovative twists and turns along the way.
'All the Difference' slows the pace slightly, unwinding a killer groove driven by a piano and punchy drums. About midway through a sublime synth bass joins the fray, and the track lifts off into the ether.
Beatport customers will also get 'Heartburn' - a driving house burner with piano stabs, 90’s vocal hooks, and a relentless and intoxicating groove.

We are very pleased to welcome 'X or Size' (Josiah Wolfson) to the Good Morning commune.  @xorsize

Currently residing in New York City, Josiah owns the incredible esoteric vortex that is Aeon Bookstore - where by chance we first met a few solar cycles ago. (https://www.aeonbookstore.com/)

During that visit to Aeon (just like the open hearted & friendly soul that we've come know) he kindly gifted us with a cassette of his own original productions - painstakingly & mindfully crafted over many years, of which we are very excited to present to you now, alongside some of his newly conceived pieces of grand(heart)expansion.  

Some honest words below from X or Size on this amazing EP....

"Covert ID consists of 7 tracks spanning 7 years, 7 planetary bodies distinct in climate and chemistry but all spun around the same sun, the core of which comes from the search for a specific sound sensed in adolescence, a sound which began to meet its potential around the start of this period.  This time was marked by a series of transformational events, starting with the end of a band and leading up to the founding of Aeon Bookstore in New York City.  Alongside those events these years were marked by a time of deep personal realignment, including a strongly rekindled interest in Eastern Mysticism that had been fostered at age 14, a return to visual art practice left dormant (culminating in the creation of the collage which adorns the cover), as well as the discovery of the dance floor and the revelation of liberation that came from it.  In some ways a debut, with very limited releases under various names more than 10 years in the rearview, this was a period of total rebirth and regeneration, a stripping away of expectations more closely situated with the childlike curiosity that first came about with the purchase of a 4 track and drum pad at age 11, the 4-track being the ideal space to escape the alienation of youth and a world all too real for an already oblique mind.  

That foundational feeling is distilled here through an anomalous approach that has developed naturally since then and which is rediscovered and realigned each time within the act of creation itself.  An array of analogue elements are foraged to form a loose lattice which congeals at its own pace through musical practice as a daily method of meditation, sculpting around the pulse of a work-in-progress as a form of centering on a kind of breath, informing and informed by the pursuit of peace, presence, and personal growth. This runs through the course of the work, as the tape opens with a piece that was initially conceived in a moment of purest bliss only to be refined throughout a period bleakly bedridden by injury, with all energy focused on sound as both escape from and expression of existential acceptance.  That balancing act reached its peak in the title track, first formed in the face of lockdowns and worked on bit by bit each day for several months as the dread in the air would dissipate and rise again, on the one hand embracing the harsh reality as a platform for reflection and on the other hand allowing this as the only space to remain free from it's baggage. These pieces were all cauldrons of self-discovery and self-recovery during times of great upheaval and ecstasy, a pivot point to be lost and found through hypnotic sublimation, finding root for regeneration in repetitive rhythm and a means for mystery in the minutiae which orbit the origin.  An exercise in focus, and exorcism of attachments, X as the unknown, cut to Size but always allowing for either/or, one foot on earth the other in the aether." 

The 'Covert ID' EP is available now on cassette via our online store & coming soon to our supportive stockists.

Taken from 'Insulary' EP out June 14 on Quiet Time. 

are you really reeling?
We all explode, we all die.
how can we fight it?
Can I go on? Can I cry?
sit near the river
to gross disgust under rock structures
how can we fight it?
turn the page already
Awash in autumn.
under rock structures
sit near the river
It all went olive.
incredible world unfolding through pages of trust
we’re getting the steady love of none
The ice rink left.
It fled our lives.
Awash, despondent.
The water fell.

fall in quick shallow holes
of being cloned
protection camo looks stuck in trenches
unilateral approach to you
privacy

The 40 fell.
It all turned olive.
The water fell.
The whole town swelled.
Awash in autumn.
The sky came down.

Let down. Slow down.

The Whole town swelled.
Awash in autumn.

B1 - Blurred Cognition

Faciendo is the manifestation of a spirit that underlies dance music in its various forms, the atmosphere of the early raves, the carefree attitude, the lack of prejudices both on the stage and on the dancefloor, the ecstatic moments shared with strangers from all walks of life united together by the primordial forces of music & rhythm. We have been sharing this ethos with the world for many years, it comes then as the next natural step, the creation of our label through which to continue sharing this vision.

For the first release, Scott Featherstone (aka Triform, Lemmon Grass, Beyond a Void & Glorious Springtime)provides two original productions that pervade exactly by the same values and feelings that move Faciendo. Carrying the zeitgeist of the early days of dance culture, the title track is an energetic and uplifting dance floor hammer, ode to the original summer of love, and one we hope beckons on the next. On the flip side finds the sublime and emotive 'Lifeflows', another long lost gem found on DAT by Scott, it sounds like an early slice of dancefloor driven detroit soul. Completing the EP is a lush grooving remix from our man of the moment Taylor Freels, aka Urulu and Liquid Earth. FAC 1, due in stores end of October 2020. Vinyl only.

00.00 - 04.41  - Triform - Vinaloop (Original mix)
04.42 - 08.11   -  Triform - Lifeflows
08.12  -  end    -  Triform - Vinaloop (Liquid Earth remix)
