Just ahead of a landmark 50th EP release, Catz ‘N Dogz’s Pets Recordings turn to Johan Cederberg aka HNNY for a special five track release that very much invites us deep into the off kilter world of the revered Swedish producer. 

Before now HNNY - preferably pronounced “honey” - has won himself many fans with curious and quirky releases on labels including Studio Barnhus, Let’s Play House and Local Talk. Producing house but with a charming sense of melody, a great ear for a sample and an irresistible sense of groove, he is a firm DJ and dancer favourite all across Europe, and for good reason. 

Opening the EP is ‘Happy Happy House House’, a lazy, beachy cut awash with sun-kissed melody and trip hop grooves. Swaying gently to and fro, it’s an immediately soothing track before ‘Brasilian Sound’ is as Latin as you would expect from the title: it's a percussive, summery, atmospheric jaunt though up-tempo and feel-good house that's littered with distant whistles, the sound of kids playing in the park and a variety of loveable instruments. ‘Fresh Laundry’ then drops into a much slower and more purposeful groove - stoned drums and a distant bassline unfold lazily before big wind instruments begin tooting up top. It’s human, imperfect and full of keys that imbue it with the joys of spring.

On the flip, ‘Fruktstund’ is another adult lullaby with colourful, cartoony instrumentals, angular grooves and plenty of organic textures, whilst closer ‘Yogalates’ is much the same with its big xylophones, joyous piano chords, rubbery kicks and generally disarming sense of playfulness. 

Spring is just round the corner but it feels so much closer with these enchanting new cuts from HNNY.

HNNY - Yogalates

Time Wharp’s ‘Cole Dub’ single is taken off his forthcoming eponymous debut album, set for release via Astro Nautico in 12’’ vinyl and digital formats in May.

‘Cole Dub’ inherits the glorious soulful clarity and dancefloor efficiency of New York house. Bold chopped and resampled live drum patterns, warm organ stabs, and mantric vocal hooks provide the single’s rhythmic sediment, with saxophones and walled up synth bliss washing in and out of the stereo field for dynamic effect. Also included are album outtake ‘Tunnel,’ a drums-only ‘Cole Dub’ rhythm track and a remix by Step+Repeat, the debut of a collaboration between Atlanta producer Stefan Ringer (aka REKchampa) & keyboardist Chris Irvin.

C'était un Rendez-Vous

Reckoning sees Izo deftly introduce her raw bluesy vocals and jazz tinged keys over a bouncing funk jam that oozes attitude and struts its way into your ears. Her heartfelt song writing and gutsy delivery is reminiscent of the female blues greats as her lyrics meditate on the consequences of one’s actions over the tight grooves produced by industry heavyweight – Dr Rubberfunk.

Berlin-based duo Snacks drop an infectious four tracker on House Of Disco this October.
Forming Snacks (@snackslive) in 2014, New Zealand’s Rene Corbett and Germany’s Aljoscha Babel have been joining the dots between funk-fuelled disco and sultry house with releases landing on Pusic Records, Boogie Angst, hafendisko and Mule Musiq. As DJs they’ve been transforming dancefloors into all out bedlam with their upbeat and eclectic performances, whilst their party-focused productions have found a home in the record crates of Ben UFO, Detroit Swindle, Prosumer and Beats In Space’s Tim Sweeney.

‘Burnin’ inaugurates the package by dropping a laidback drum rhythm, piercing chords and soulful vocal loops topped with a fuzzy bassline. ‘Matinee’ then takes things into deeper territories with organic percussion, blissful synth swells and uplifting choral patterns, before ‘Deep Fry’ generates a compelling groove with smooth bass licks and rich string harmonies.

In demand Dutch duo @Fouk, who’ve appeared on HOD as well as Razor-N-Tape and Heist, deliver an offbeat take on ‘Deep Fry’ with delicate melodies, opulent pads and cosmic nuances resonating throughout. Finally, a digital only remix comes from fellow Netherlands-based pair Soultage, whose rendition of ‘Burnin’’ works with the original’s pianos and vocals to produce a new level of funk.

Snacks ‘Burnin’ EP drops on House Of Disco (https://soundcloud.com/thehouseofdisco) on 3rd October on vinyl and 14th October digitally

Have a Seat

These two songs explore the gap between electronic synthesis and organic percussion. Using a harp, a 1980s Russian analog synthesizer, and hand-drums recorded in the subway systems of New York, bad tuner hoped to combine human nature (imperfection) and electronic music programming (repetition). The double speaks to bad tuner's childhood, with themes of escape and alienation.
