AWK003 - Various Artists

Apparently putting out records is just as addictive as putting on parties. Naturally, we are itching for more and it’s about time that we announce our next release. It’s one that we’re particularly looking forward to as for the first time we have the pleasure of curating a various artists EP - and we believe it turns out to be one that we have plenty of reasons to be excited about!   

From J.Wiltshire’s cinematic ambience to Yushh’s floating wobbles, from Pugilist’s sinister stepper to Lårry’s ghostly glitches, every artist on this EP brings their distinct style and adds to the general vibe and overall great harmony of this record.   

AWK003 is set for release on October 15th 2021. Much love to the artists contributing to this EP as well as to anyone supporting our continued record label endeavours!

AWK003 - Various Artists // Snippets

There was a chill in the air, the kind that preceded a sinister or unfortunate event. Now darkness arrived much earlier, the streets emptied leaving only the nightcrawlers to roam at their leisure. Under the veil of night, societal rules went out of the window. There was no longer any law enforcement patrolling these parts, they'd given up on that a long time ago, there was only so much that could be done to keep these creatures at bay.

Following releases from Lårry and Aroent, Berlin-based imprint Awkwardly Social are gearing up for their first ever VA, bringing together some of their favourite artists and label mates. A release that's given the label 'plenty to be excited about', the four tracks feature music from previous affiliate Lårry, Pugilist, J.Wiltshire and Yushh, all of whom bring different flavours with their originals: from ambient to glitch, electro and leftfield.

PREMIERE: Lårry - Latz End [Orf] [Awkwardly Social]

Exclusive: J.Wiltshire - Living In The IDE

Berlin's not so socially awkward label Awkwardly Social drums up label affiliates for the third installment to deliver four artistically rich and diverse takes. Besides Lårry, who was responsible for the label's second release, the EP also features tracks from Yushh, Pugilist and Jacob Wiltshire. The UK-producer, who entered the scene with a release on Hypercolour, now (co-) runs not only his own label Super Hexagon, but can already look back at a release on MUSAR among others. With Living In The IDE Wiltshire musically remains true to himself as he comes up with a rather spheric almost cinematic ambient take whose power becomes evident if you let yourself in for this experience of sounds interacting with each other under the umbrella of a contemporary piece of musical art. Wiltshire perfectly and almost mosaic-like puzzles the sounds together to create the track title suggested IDE or rather makes the inner workings of it visible or hearable for an audience.

Awkwardly Social's V/A EP will be released on October 15th, 2021.
