With the exuberant ‘Hot Inside’ EP still ringing clearly in the consciousness of revellers across the world, Berlin-resident Jimmy Edgar hands over the reigns of his newly-minted Ultramajic imprint for another vivacious outing to launch the ’Metaphysix’ series, a concept that was developed alongside long-time creative partner Pilar Zeta. 
 
As Edgar goes on to explain, “reality is based upon thought systems and this is the core of music and vibration, each chapter of the series we will give these ideas to the artists for them to interpret in any way they choose.” 
 
The inaugural edition finds two producers working around the theme of Mentalism, defined most simply as “The All is Mind, The Mind is All; the Universe is Mental”. The elusive Aden commences proceedings, with two claustrophobic cuts steeped in dub-techno sensibilities that have already garnered support from such established figureheads as Boys Noize and Scuba. 
 
On the flip, credits belong to Creepy Autograph, a rotating group of Detroit natives whose members were once all involved with the enigmatic Dopplereffekt project, as vocalists. Here, they’re on rambunctious form, providing two jacking cuts imbued with salacious intent and oozing chrome-plated cosmic funk. 
 
Featuring collaborative artwork with Pilar Zeta that explores Edgar’s interest in ancient magic and new domains of knowing, it equates to a truly immersive experience, and one that assures a fruitful future for this tantalising concept.

ADEN "WHIP"

Dawit Eklund - Psycho Animus

Deadboy - Ain't Gonna Lie

As spring dawns, Rhythm Section International go from Local Artist to a pair of very ‘local’ artists - Peckham’s very own Chris Watson + Chris Coupe; otherwise known as FYI CHRIS , who present the ‘Back In The Millennium’ EP as the labels 5th offering.

The EP was born after a rather hazy late night listening session at Rhythm Section HQ, where bossman Bradley Zero was instantly beguiled by the Duo’s hypnotic and rhythmically complex arrangements. 
The record begins abrasively with the trance-inducing mechanical stutter of 'back in the millennium', before shuffling into downbeat number ‘Jeru'  and then picks things up with the peak time groove of ‘need i say more’  before bringing us back down to earth with the melancholic acid bump of 'dedication’.
Early support from Osunlade, MR.G, Ryan Elliott  & Damiano Von Eckhert

FYI CHRIS -   Need I Say More

“Amor i Ritme” is the music of solidarity: 27 artists united in a single beat. A release that travels through different sounds and styles from ambient and house to industrial EBM, techno and acid in solidarity with one of the most emblematic places of the electronic music scene in Spain. The compilation features contributions from Andy Butler of American group Hercules and Love Affair feat Intuit Dazey, Belgrade-based producer and disc-jockey Lipelis, Periodica Records affiliate Whodamanny, and Madrid-via-Chile DJ-producer Fernanda Arrau alongside Multi Culti producer Balam, who join names from across the Spanish electronic scene such as Pau Roca, ALVVA, Jaisiel and Barcelona duo People You May Know, formed by Phran and Ylia, GAZZI, among others.

All proceeds will be split 50/50 between two charities who are helping to raise money for those affected and to rebuild communities that have been devastated: Aldis Paiporta, which helps people with disabilities who have lost everything, and the Horta SuD Foundation, which works with civil society to stimulate and strengthen the social fabric in the Valencian Community, with special attention given to programmes developed in the region of Horta Sud (Valencia).

We would like to give special thanks to each of the artists who have joined the initiative and to those who have not been able to but have supported us.

Lemonick - Locked Groove (SMBDL011)

The past year has seen Swiss producer Lemonick rise from relative obscurity to the fore of the club music world, releasing efforts on Nervous Horizons, Clubwerks and Car Crash Set, all while cultivating a bare bones, hybrid style that’s almost immediately recognizable. “Locked Groove” represents his arrival in the Symbols Download Series, a track that balances the rambunctious feeling of East Coast club forms with a serious, spaced out sense of sound design, all topped off with enough lick-driven funk flair to keep you moving throughout.

What does a daydream sound like? Is it an audible confidence boost, a concentrated dose of caffeine shot straight into the bloodstream of dancing feet, a blue so overwhelmingly electric its field stretches as far as the eye can see? On Amadeus, the latest Ghostly effort from New York’s Lord RAJA, the shapeshifting producer answers his own question with a cunning, childlike purity not felt since he started tinkering with Fruity Loops aged six. 

Though his means of music-making have matured since then—on Amadeus he utilizes an arsenal of drum machines along with synthesizers and an Allen & Heath analog mixer slammed through for extra crunch—RAJA describes a deliberate return to youthful experimentation and immediacy, clearing the way for a “vista to his childhood.” 

Longtime fans of the producer may be accustomed to productions more directly aligned with hip-hop and leftfield beats, but his swagger hasn’t gone anywhere despite the decidedly dancier change of form. The release is bookended by an exuberant and naturally collaborative piece with AceMo—a fellow New Yorker whom RAJA describes as his favorite producer—and bonus track “Fox Den,” an eight-minute cosmic meander released as part of the Adult Swim singles series last year. On standout “O.K” his customary percussive potpourri mingles with vocal chops and an electro bounce even the most humorless club patron couldn’t resist. “Black Coffee,” another highlight, features synth lines so darkly acidic they should come with toxic warnings. RAJA describes the track title as a literal take - a soundtrack to jolt first date jitters, a call to cool courage. 

Amadeus, meanwhile, he suggests is a cheeky nod to the complex richness of his musical heritage. He says, “I think it’s kinda funny to flip an idea of western imperialism and how it proliferated. It’s playful as an Indian man to call yourself Amadeus, knowing how much composers borrowed from eastern classical influences.”
