Ensemble Entendu

Pre-save: ddd.fanlink.to/FlavourEP`

Leo Cap makes his return to DDD with the "Flavour EP". Once again bringing his signature twisted, weird and wonky take on dubstep, straight from the heart of mother Russia.
The EP kicks off with a slightly deeper flex as title track "Flavour" gives the subs a full flex workout. Stick Inside and Lemon & Cognac showcase the Leo Cap sound we have grown to love. Interesting sound design, intricate details and bone crushing sub
Los Angeles is a progressive ride, the track builds up and bounces along with a repetitive bass hook which drags the whole dancefloor along for a ride, before the EP closes out with Our Best Trip... a deeper number featuring the vocals of Julia Marks.

Premiere "Vague" by Kapha taken from "Disposal Ashore" EP out on 18th April via JUDDER

Pre-order: https://judderlabel.bandcamp.com/album/disposal-ashore-jr001

JUDDER proudly presents the first release in the series of singles and EPs — a "Disposal Ashore" EP by Kapha. Drawing inspirations from UK Bass, both early 2000s and contemporary dubstep, as well as other cutting edge experimental sonics, Kapha enigmatically yet deftly blends rhythms and vibes in this four-tracker. His minimalistic approach to arrangement allows to concentrate on the deep groove and atmospherics, while leaving plenty of space for the core elements, which greatly showcases his distinctive take on music production.

Samotek - Missin U

Ensemble Entendu is the collaborative project of Astro Nautico co-founder and co-owner Sam O.B. (f.k.a. Obey City) and label artist Photay. 

Since July 2014, inspired by back-to-back deejay sets at Astro Nautico parties and around New York, O.B. and Photay have been linking their individual production styles between Brooklyn studios in order to create a form dance music that centralizes the timeless power of the drum. 

With a track entitled ‘Cause ‘N’ Effect,’ the oldest (c. 2014) collected on the Ensemble’s debut release Selected Rhythm Works, Vol. 1, the duo raises the question: who in this collaboration is causing what effect on whom? There are rhythmic and melodic idiosyncrasies of both artists present on each track. Footprints stepping in footprints. And beyond or behind the artists are the sound signatures of house music, new jack, African polyrhythm, dub reggae, ‘80s prog (roto toms!), P-funk, dancehall, and much more. This flurry of styles stitches a Trans-Atlantic tapestry of drumming across generations and seas, with a center nowhere but the dance floor. 

Ensemble Entendu’s debut is sampling notions of library music and rhythm tracks. The duo’s name refers to deju entendu, the psychic phenomenon that occurs when you hear something you think you’ve heard before, even though the sound may be being heard for the first time. Selected Rhythm Works, Vol. 1 (a nominal reference to Aphex Twin) loosens the threads of connection between then and now and tomorrow, allowing listeners to weave their own journeys in historical time through body movement.

Outer Heaven - The Last Men EP

Vinyl Tracklist:

A1 - The Last Men
A2 - Blemish

AA1 - Still Waters
AA2 - Trapline

Coventry’s second son of Drum & Bass returns to UVB-76 Music for his first release on the label since 2017’s ‘Pathos’ EP. Two years on, and four tracks strong, ‘The Last Men’ EP delves into the darker caverns of modern jungle, tethering howling pad works to a sturdy hull of abrasive percussive rhythms.

Coarse high end peaks are trussed against bottom end vibrations which are fixated to the ground as three tracks are firmly rooted in the dance while a fourth track is the fallout at trip hop tempo.

CLAPPED NINES

Photay and Sam O.B. collide once again for the second of two EPs this year under the moniker Ensemble Entendu. Pastoral Dusk Themes EP evokes images deep and rolling. Lead off ‘Hully Bully’ portrays a nighttime landscape turned into electric jelly jiggling to the beat of forlorn drums. Ensemble Entendu’s take on library music here expands to include the stoic cumbia inflections of ‘Ritmo Antiguo’ and the fourth world ambient reflections of ‘Loon Interlude’ and ‘Mascoma.’ Each track brings a palpable imagined geography, a space within which to think and feel emergent states of departure. ‘Lakeview’ finishes the release with a colorful, astral spaciousness, something like aurora borealis converted into synthesized sound.

Ensemble Entendu began as a collaborative project of Photay and Sam O.B. They set out exploring library music and the tradition of rhythm tracks, emphasizing driving drums and basslines in their stripped down productions. The Brooklyn-based producers are now shaping a music uniquely situated between their already unique solo artistic voices.

Pastoral Dusk Themes EP and its recently released companion Music For The Densely Populated, Vol. 2 are available for digital download via Astro Nautico.
