JULY 2023: one thousand miles road trip alongside Dorset, Devon and deeply 'till "Land's End" in Cornwall. 
Soundtrack by Richard D. James mostly all the time, breathing the strong wind and feeling the pure magic of cliffs and reefs.
This is just a humble "slow down" tribute to one of the most inspiring artists I met in my musical life.

I will say smooth, I will say jazzy, hmmm what else comes to mind? Crisp and tropical... those kind of things.

Also really dig the electronic percussions and the phased scat vocals. Ah, there is furthermore some kind of italo-ish banger hiding here. Obviously I have replaced the cover to avoid too much hi-jacking - but what if I told you the actual sleeve artwork was even tastier?

While everyone is getting ready for Valentine's Day, we invite you to listen to a new mix recorded by Dima Safronov. Dima is the founder and ideologist of the independent radio @5na8radio , where he has released over 200 mixes collected from all over the world.

Describing the mix, Dima shared his emotions: 

"On the day when everyone gives each other valentines and all sorts of trinkets as hints of sympathy or love, I remember my romantic relationships and the stages I've been through. Whether it's saying goodbye at the Bryansk bus station or strong hugs in the Almada hostel, endless calvados and universal shyness before a kiss, watching movies together, sharing one earphone, or a cigarette smoked by two. All of this happened, and perhaps will happen again. This is a compilation of compositions that miraculously turn into one of these stories."

So while you are preparing for your valentines, tune in to the mix that will perfectly set the mood for this romantic evening.

GROUND brings his Osaka-delic sound to the Multi Culti disco

A long-time friend and collaborator, GROUND has been part of the Multi Culti Family since it's early days, playing together at festivals in Europe and Asia, hosting us in his native Osaka, doing limited edition silk-screened merch with his CHILL MOUNTAIN partner at our pop-up shop in Berlin. With all that history, it's about time we did a proper release together!

This set of tracks has all his hallmarks as a producer: loopy, funky grooves that make you nod your head and stomp your feet, tracks bedazzled with wonky bleeps, squelches, noise samples, and pitched percussion, a musical collage packed with equal parts 'kawaii', 'wabisabi', and of course 'saikederikku.'

Party music for machine elves, cartoon hallucinations, beats for inner and outer dance, drawn from mystical mountain moments as much as from the dope, dense cities of Japan - dig deep into GROUND.

We continue live from Berlin: Fog Puma is taking over!

Fog Puma [4.8.25]

Hell Yeah's lovingly curated Buena Onda series is back with a new edition that focuses on Adriatic Beats & Beyond. It has been assembled by label head Marco Gallerani and features four exclusive new tunes that reflect his summer residences at a cosy beach bar on Italy's Eastern and Adriatic coast.

Marco moved back to his hometown of Ferrara after the pandemic and began spending more time at the local seaside, the famous Lidi Ferraresi. It's there, at Lido di Spina, that a friend runs Kai Beach Bar, a small spot where, every Thursday throughout August for the last three years, he has soundtracked afternoons and sunsets under the Buena Onda banner, more than a decade after the party first started in Berlin.

"The beat has become less Balearic, more Adriatic," he explains of the sounds that can be heard up and down the coastline. "There’s no sunset culture yet, but they like a groove for aperitivo. This selection reflects the music I propose there, a kinda sunrise to sunset trip."

The 13-track selection includes four exclusives: the first is Blende's 'Amor,' which is forthcoming on the label. Johan Blende is a Swedish producer, songwriter and DJ who weaves together modern dance with retro sounds of the 70s and 80s and debuts on the label this summer with his Recess EP. 'Amor' is a bubbly groove with a New Age wash and lo-fi pads full of charm.

Hell Yeah regular and Italian magic man Walter Del Vecchio aka Quiroga also offers a new Baia Club Ambient Version of 'French Kiss' which has a lazy acid line worming its way through dubby kicks and tabla drums, and his dreamy electro soother 'Cala Ventosa' also features. Secret Soul Society, aka South Wales's Cal Gibson, also tests a new EP with his 'Orange Surprise' blending off-balance rhythmic shuffles with starry cosmic melodies. The final exclusive is from Balearic Gabba Sound System, who flip The Vendetta Suite aka the legendary Gary Irwin's 'Della Notte' into a quietly epic cinematic closer with icy analogue beats and a warped bassline for dubbed out late night escape. His 'Island Hill Microdot' also offers some warped cosmic ambient house introspection.

Elsewhere, Michele Mininni features twice - once with Gallo's Tropical Hinterhof Remix of the suspensory ambient lushness pop 'Carousel of Tears' and once with the original percussive pressure and hip-house fusion of 'Urban Voodoo' from his Pop Archetypes LP. Buena Onda veteran Feel Fly comes through with an Estatico Danzante Remix of Pedro Bertho's 'Tornei' feat Mariana Gehring and takes us to the stars on twinkling keys, dusty breakbeats and steamy vocals that glow as warm as a setting sun.

Add in further groovy gems such as Bonnie and Klein's synth and vibes laced 'Horizon Avenue,' dreamy, breaks-driven downtempo brilliance from pub wave innovator Dawn Again, hints of Ibiza cool from Willie Graff's remix of Aura Safari & Jimi Tenor and some upbeat synth-laced house from label stalwart Luminodisco and you have a faultless collection of grooves for grown up dance floors.
