[EYX016] 'Last Laugh' - Preview Clips:

Following their outstanding appearance on Kindergarten Records VA Fluo III, Brooklyn-based DJ and producer Martini debuts on Early Reflex with their first EP titled ‘Last Laugh’.

Touching sonic landscapes adjacent to Leftfield Techno, Dubstep and Electro, Martini explores in their 4-tracker the power to impact on both body and mind through their immersive sound achieved by a precise manipulation of timbre and rhythm from the American producer.

Title track ‘Last Laugh’ opens the journey into Martini’s world with syncopated beats and its punch kick surrounded by warped effects and a texture of arpeggiated synthesisers.
Mood and BPMs shift into electro-mode in’If I Don’t Laugh I’ll Cry’ a heavy distorted synth signals to the listeners that an explosive beat is about to drop.
The dance keeps going on and on with ‘Chaste’ which follows next, a wormhole of incessant kick-drums, pitch-shifting effects and punchy-basses.
The atmospherical state of‘Serendipity’ close the sonic journey into Martini’s world, where mind-twisting pads and undistinguishable vocals pre-announce the landing on an extraterrestrial dub-heavy “sonosphere”.

Martini said:
“This EP represents my deep interest in expressing convoluted emotions and narratives through the precise manipulation of timbre and rhythm. I’m fascinated by the power sound has over your mind and body despite the level of abstraction it can exhibit, which I try to exploit by carefully crafting each sound.”

‘Last Laugh’ is available across all platforms on Friday 16th of February 2024.

The AI Told Me To

PREMIERE: Mossambi - Reptate [All Centre]

Australian NHS boss Galtier and UK label Synes co-founder Druid team up for a collaborative EP 'Stone Hardware'. The EP’s four tracks are a collection of solo works and collaborative efforts from both producers recorded throughout the duration of late 2020 and early 2021, taking form as a hybrid collection of club-ready dancefloor destroyers.

The established end product of this EP is evident in the release’s title – an organic, primitive sound palette that frequents Galtier’s dynamic sound as heard in the last few years, combined with Druid’s mechanized futurism taken straight from the streets of Neo-Tokyo. Each producer has offered a distinctive focus that they have merged together into one evolving, unanticipated synthesis of proto and post-earthly sound.

Accidental melodies and textural forms comprise Kin Teal’s Ecosystem, the Budapest-based producer’s second EP of iridescent club-not-club zones and debut for Human Pitch. Bridging 130-140 leftfield bass with liquid downtempo chuggers, Kin Teal uncovers hidden melodies in the resonant frequencies of percussion. “By amplifying certain frequencies in drum breaks, our brains latch onto that as a melody. These melodies are often askew, not perfectly tuned, and I wanted to embrace that.”

Doubling down on the record’s title and theme, Kin Teal played with the idea of a record in which each sound and track reacts to one another. Tubular melodies coil around syncopated drums as though by reflex and vocal blips flit through the gaps. There’s a clockwork but also a fluidity to Kin Teal’s oblique rhythms, which trace the producer’s growth, bending blueprints with a vibrant curiosity.

Miami’s Nick León teams up with Physical Therapy for the first time on “Genesis” a revitalizing springtime jam. The playful track is a perfect pairing of the two producers, with perky melodies and a deft club beat.

Three remixes bridge the sounds of Florida and New York. DJ SWISHA amps up the original in classic NYC 4X4 fashion, while SEL.6 turns in a mutated Miami Bass version. As a bonus, Physical Therapy reconstructs Genesis with an extended disco-infused edit under his Peter Pressure alias.

Rizla Ops joins the NHS orbit with his debut EP release 'Aphid' - An offering of functional, mechanical crawlers that hit disparate BPMs and creep into the territories of many genres of club music that predominantly hail from the shores of the UK. The brief collection highlights a generous dose of maximalism and pairs this with a microcosm of jittering, insectoid syncopation.

Rizla Ops emphasises the magnification of the world that lives in between the cracks of our existence through this collection; he examines the harshness as an inevitable aspect of nature with an scathing and uncompromising lens. The steady march throughout is definite; pacey, systematic rhythms are the focal point of the cohesive selection of tracks that make up this impressive foray into the world of collectivized, paired dance tracks.
