Banoffee Pies Original series continues with a long overdue welcome to the label for Xades (pronounced shades), the Berlin based Artist, Producer, Vocalist, already known under her DJ moniker MSJY. The Femme Bass Mafia co-founder operating for the last 8 years across Europe, with a previous residency at Amsterdam’s De School Club, and further affiliations with the likes of Dekmantel and OOST. As Jenny’s career and musical output continues to flourish, the Xades project sets the foundations as a space for measured sonic reflection, and acts as a portal to connect  to their surroundings under a lens of sensitivity.

Original production “Qlu” gives us a taste of the dynamic, sharp and playful spectrum of sounds that culminate in a uniquely euphoric composition with the perfect touch of dub tinged electronica.

Two remixes take opposing directions, with an intricately chaptered bass weight twist from sound design enthusiast /  Body Verse founder Kate Miller, and a hybrid rhythmic club cut from recently affiliated label signing Syz. BPR x

Pearson Sound returns to his Hessle Audio label with Which Way Is Up, a 4 track EP showcasing a range of textures and tempos with soundsystem pressure as the anchor. The 808-laced 'Hornet' kicks things off with a sound palette inspired as much by '80s Miami as '10s London. 'Twister' dials up the energy with a jagged lead and scattered breakbeats pulling in opposing directions, while the steppers pulse of 'Slingshot' evokes formative experiences at Subdub in Leeds. The EP is brought to a close with the blissed out title track 'Which Way Is Up', whose arpeggios dance around each other until they fizzle to breaking point.

Toupaz lands on Grid with a luminous, deep and complex EP. 4 tracks mixing impossible genres with contrast as the watchword.

The lead track Rabatanto wanders between dubstep and techno influences, at once dark with sizzling bass lines and ethereal with dubby vocals and percussion samples. A club banger for any crowd.
Genuine Connection is the tool of the bunch, galloping along at 142bpm it will thrill everyone with its ultra-detailed uk bass vibe contrasting with airy and colourful synthesizers.
On the b-side, Birdsong slows the tempo down with a slow dancehall atmosphere mixed with deep subs and rap vocal samples. 

Islandish, the closing track puts the emphasis on emotions, with sentimental synth lines again combined with dub echoes and dubstep false slowness to create a one-of-a-kind stirring mood.

Following on from the House-infused punch of her Peach Discs release in June, Bristol’s Daisy Moon treats us to a shapeshifting debut on Timedance - entering a new era with a splash sure to be felt in most abyssal zones.

‘Shadow Of Silhouettes’ showcases a singular exploration of tough yet scintillating sounds, between wiggy electro, bass-laden grooves and inspired bursts of FWD techno-pop.

In this diverse body of work, Daisy’s vocals are the glue tying things together. They appear like sonic silhouettes, abstracted through sound design and unveiling a taste for the experimental. In other moments they are stripped from their abstract form and float above the surface, revealing Daisy Moon’s blossoming talent for ear-worm melodies.

In what feels almost like an annual autumn tradition now, we’re mighty excited to announce the next release on our label, “Candor“ by Hett.

Working with friends has an especially rewarding quality which is why we’re particularly happy for Hett to join the AWK label family. Having known about his excellent production skills for a while, we were quite eager to unearth this hidden gem. It took a moment to put together but everyone’s patience paid off and we can proudly present you this beautiful 5 track record.

The Wearside raised and Berlin based artist provides the perfect formula for a club ready yet emotively aware package, making it hard to believe that this is only his debut EP. A work of music that embodies the refreshing candor of a forward thinking attitude whilst also giving a respectful nod to the past.

DJ picks ups and plays by: Clouds, Chris Farrell, Earth Trax, Ehua, Emily Jeanne, Fliss Mayo, Gigsta, Henzo, Ila Brugal, Om Unit, Marylou, Mixtress, Sinistarr, Vivian Koch, Yushh and many more.

AWK 006, “Candor“ by Hett will be out on October 25th 2024. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Also on deck is Ommaya Records’ noRecall with a kinetic weapon that’s sure to rattle dancefloors, along with two of Club Moniker’s very own: llloyd and suade, each bringing their brand of cutting-edge sonics from the Bay Area.

The bus weaved between towerblocks, the road was tightly packed with cars and the people hustling and bustling their way home from work under the smog. The city was dimly lit and it was hard to recognise the faces which passed by the window. Perhaps ge knew some of them from days gone by. After all, once upon a time he was out here everyday.

The bell rang suddenly and the doors rattled open.

He glanced upwards only to be greeted with a familiar smile. The kind he hadn’t seen for quite a while, the wild sort which meant that what came next was anyones guess.

Coe is set to release a stormer of a two track EP on First Second Label. This one holds no punches and is set for dark basements, big soundsystems and beyond. It bangs and rumbles with a throb.

PREMIERE: Coe - Skooma [First Second Label]

Label: Banoffee Pies Records
Catalogue No: BP027
Title: Vapour
Artists: Xades
Genre: Drum&Bass, Electronica, Alternative Pop

Tracklist: 
1. Halftime
2. Weighting
3. Trail
4. Deixa

Xades aka MSJY returns to the label, melding deep electronica and atmospheric Jungle in “Vapour”, a patient collection diving deeper into their sonic sphere with 4 magnetic compositions full of feeling and off-centre dream-like rhythm.

“Halftime” opens with a warmth of textures, while “Weighting” shows calm in a mesmerising vocal track. Continued percussions layer across the release as “Trail” moves to evolving bass soundscapes, and a more ambient euphoria ends the trip in “Dexia”.
