A mix of electronic, synthesizer and meditative music. I put these tracks together with the idea of creating an audio accompaniment for a trip through the other reaches of space.

NDATL continues with a slice from Claude Young, Alcé recruits Detroit native for the next release on NDATL. The EP waits no time & cuts right in with "The Knife", the 12"s title track, it's big stabs, deep bass shuffling beats show that Young is in top form. "No Regrets'" sublime & ethereal strings and chords exemplify Young’s uniqueness. The breezy deepness of “Santa Barbra” will make the dancer fly. As “The Promenade” wraps up the EP with a relaxing mood & vibe.

Ben Hauke - March 2022

We follow up our last premiere with a remix from the mighty WheelUP!  Shout out to Re:Fill & Cognitiva Records!

of the full release of ‘Cycles’ by the Jazzfunk duo Re:Fill, Cognitiva shine a light on the incredible remixes that feature on the LP, with the reworks coming from some fine talents indeed.

The sound that Re:Fill are able to conjure up is one of rhythmic complexity, simmering melodic sequences, and an overall feeling of quietly building euphoria that only comes from Jazz laden dance grooves. To assist with the overall vibe of their debut LP, Sofatalk, WheelUP and Ben Hauke were recruited to put their spins on the cuts ‘Impulse’ and ‘Stillness’, and the goods they serve up are truly spectacular. ‘Impulse’ sees both Sofatalk and WheelUP working their magic, with the Sofatalk remix adding in a cosmic tinge to compliment the already wide array of chordal tones, with emphasis placed on the movement between density and spatial vacuums which makes the movement through the phases extra enjoyable. WheelUP takes things down to a saunter, but what a saunter it is, with the feeling captured here one of rhythmic excellence, with the keys enveloping the listener in what could only be described as a blissful bath of melody.

To wrap things up, Ben Hauke really shifts perspectives on ‘Stillness’, with the hazy piano fuelled experience found in the original turbo drived upon a two step leaning beat. The delicate piano that makes the original so intoxicating remains as a rhythmic motif, with plenty of intriguing elements thrown into the mix that keep the mind yearning for more, whilst the beat gets the feet stepping until the early hours.

Three remixes, three differing interpretations, one big wetting of the appetite. This excellent trio only hints at the wider picture, so get locked in until the big day arrives!

Yes people! Oliver Night is back with a brand new six-track EP - including remixes from the legendary AtJazz & Mitch von Arx.  Here is a taster from the EP - the Mitch Von Arx remix of Welcome, exclusively premiered on the Selectors Souncloud!  The EP will be out on CoOp Presents on the 5th of Aug.  Those impatient ones can get those PRE-ORDERS in on Bandcamp now!

CoOp Presents are pleased to "welcome" back Oliver Night, with a brand new six-track EP, including remixes from Atjazz and Mitch von Arx.

Following up his brilliant early 2019 EP 'Make Believe', his EP once again illustrates Oliver's prowess for producing deep bruk business. This follows releases on the label from the likes of EVM128, Groove Chronicles, Risa T, LCSM, Sivey, Neue Grafik, Danvers &amp; Reginald Omas Mamode, furthering the mission statement of label bosses IG Culture &amp; Alex Phountzi to create a strong platform for new bruk talent and beyond, from London to the world.

For those that don't know, East London's Oliver Night is a rising talent in the bruk world. In addition to his own productions, collaborating with artists such as Jay Phelps &amp; BB James, he recently featured on Adelaide producer Inkswel's 'Trippin' (which reached No.1 on the Traxsource Deep House chart) on Atjazz's label, as well as the title track of his new album 'Chasing Infinity' (which also features Lee Scratch Perry, Steve Spacek, Mr Scruff, Dudley Perkins, Kaidi Tatham &amp; Talib Kweli of Black Star). There were also recent features on Parisian producer Quiet Dawn's highly acclaimed 'Movements' EP on Worldwide Award-winning London label First Word&nbsp;Records, and on Jimpster's recent album 'Birdhouse' on Freerange Records.

Now approaching two decades in the DJ game, Oliver was originally a member of Roots Manuva's Banana Klan, and nowadays is a regular player for the Selectors Assemble gang. He's played at various venues across the capital, from the Tate Modern to Boiler Room, and on Worldwide FM with the CoOp Presents crew. Previous support has come far and wide from selectors such as Tony Humphries, Kerri Chandler, Jazzie B, Gilles Peterson, Kid Fonque, Rainer Trueby, Jamz Supernova &amp; Seth Troxler, and press from the likes of Bolting Bits and Music Is My Sanctuary.

So to the new EP… An entirely self-produced solo effort, it kicks off - of course - with 'Welcome', the title track. A deep commanding vocal leads the proceedings, accompanied with some Detroit Techno-tinged keys, acid squelches and occasional chopped Jungle-esque breaks. We follow this with a piece of 'Heart' - warped arpeggiated synths lead the way here, whilst also featuring some seriously soulful vocals again from Oliver himself. Things get tougher next with 'Bruk N Bass'; as the title suggests, this one has some heavy D&amp;B influences with a seriously growling b-line and ravey synth stabs, riding a fiery bruk backbeat. The EP closes out on a more leftfield tip; 'Slated' is a deeper one, which begins with a brooding key pattern setting things off in a slightly deceptive fashion, before switching to some stripped-back bruk, containing just the right amount of sample hits and bassweight, with a mind-melting breakdown midway to boot. The set is complete with two firing remixes from Atjazz and Mitch von Ark respectively.

Oliver says "this EP is a fusion of my favourite genres - broken beat, soul, techno, house and drum 'n' bass. I've put my 'Heart' into this and would love to 'Welcome' you into my ever evolving world…"
