yoooo @DocBrucio....... I didn't know you did the original of this

ZEN is the new debut album from LOVE APE (alias Moiety). The album is inspired by the calming effect of nature on the human brain and all tracks are made in a meditative state of mind. Although there are club friendly tracks on the album, it is created to bring a meditative state of mind to the creator and listener.

PREMIERE: LOVE APE - Monkey Shuffle [Rugged Society]

1) UIUAWIO
2) Psychedelectricity

Man Power returns to Optimo Music with this splendid dance floor tested 2 tracker. He says -

“UIUAWIO is me killing time by covering Odyssey and singing into my laptop in a budget hotel in Mexico while my wife met with her lawyers next door. I think most of the best stuff people make comes in those loose moments that take place between doing everything else properly. Psychedelectricity is me writing lyrics for a fictitious song title that I read in a comic book story by Grant Morrison almost 30 years ago."

Out on Optimo Music Digital Danceforce on March 18th 2022.

Astonishingly, almost eight years have now passed since Simon Peter made his debut on Claremont 56 with the fantastically Balearic 'Arc of Lark'. He's not released much since, so this EP on Forest Jams is a welcome return to action. Title track 'Every Cloud' is deliciously warming and woozy, with twinkling lead lines, drowsy chords and softly strummed acoustic guitars riding above shuffling beats and a deep, smooth bassline. His love of acoustic instrumentation is further explored on the blissful 'You Don't Send Slow Waves Anymore'. Turn to the B-side for two fine remixes: a steel pan and Spanish guitar-sporting re-frame of 'Every Cloud' by Japanese outfit Coastlines, and a gorgeous, sunrise-ready, Balearic nu-disco re-imagining of 'You Don't Send Slow Waves Anymore' courtesy of Shu Suzuki.

PREMIERE : Simon Peter - You Don't Send Slow Waves Anymore (Shu Suzuki Remix)

Underground System returns to Razor-N-Tape with the ‘Looking In EP’ - a 5-track offering of fresh originals and remixes. Ranging from low-slung Balearic grooves, to driving left-field funk and urgent up-tempo backbeats, the record is a fine-tuning of the US sound, complete with their signature flute and synth soundscapes, driving percussion, and catchy offbeat vocal hooks. On the B-side, RNT mainstays Nenor and Clive From Accounts take two of the tunes into clubbier territory, with a pair of remixes that are primed for the dance floor.

A-side of a forthcoming 12" on Japan's Let's Get Lost label, due out Autumn 2012.

A tribute to, rather than a cover version of "Is It All Over My Face?" by Loose Joints. This track was made specifically to be played at our bi-monthly Optimo nights in Glasgow. The Loose Joints song was an Optimo anthem but had been played so much that I wanted to put it to rest and decided to create a track that was inspired by, and paid homage to it but wasn't strictly a cover version. After all, it is an impossible and impossibly good song to try and cover. 

This has been rigorously road tested throughout Summer 2012.

Vocals are by Alicia Matthews from Organs Of Love. Cello is by Emma Goldman. All other instrumentation by JD Twitch. Mix assistance and mastering by James Savage.

Limited period upload.

Jamie 3:26 – “This compilation represents the true unspoken sound of my city. While the House scene was blossoming into what would be a globally recognized phenomenon, we had this whole hidden movement going on. These personal edits that I played back then represent magical moments in time that are still being created in many of my sets today. A huge thank you to my music brothers Marshall Jefferson, Braxton Holmes, Tone B. Nimble, Chip E, Pap Spencer, Doc Brucio, Carl Bias for trusting my ears with your creations.”

Founded in 1996 by Peter Adarkwah, Barely Breaking Even (BBE Music) started life as a London club night, taking its name from the eponymous Disco record by the Universal Robot Band.

The label grew from the vibrant early 90's club scene with its first release, Stop & Listen compiled by Dr Bob Jones in 1996, opening the door to iconic series' such as All Back To Mine & Late Nite Tales.

A tonne of releases followed, ranging from Disco to Funk, Jazz to House. In the year 2000, the label celebrated Masters at Work's 10th Anniversary with a mighty box set that featured near 80 tracks.

A year later BBE Music spawned the Beat Generation Series of artist albums, notably introducing J Dilla (Welcome 2 Detroit) & a young Will.I.Am's first solo outing, alongside DJ Jazzy Jeff, Madlib & DJ Spinna, all of whom contributed to this seminal set of long players.

A quarter of a century and well over 500 titles later, having worked with Mark Ronson, Roy Ayers, Questlove, Hugh Masekela, DJ Premier, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro, Kon, RZA, Laurent Garnier, Black Coffee, DJ Shadow, David Rodigan and John Morales among many others, BBE Music looks to the future, celebrating its rich heritage while continuing to release a bounty of fresh titles.

The label’s most recent projects include an expansive reissue series from pioneering Nigerian label Tabansi, new imprint ‘Batakari’ in association with Boddhi Satva and the critically acclaimed ‘J Jazz’ Japanese Jazz multi-album project, not to mention the recent landmark 500th label release: a brand new version of 'Barely Breaking Even', featuring Leroy Burgess, Patrick Adams and Louie Vega.

In 2021 BBE Music is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the label is offering up some special projects, from the 20th Anniversary edition of J Dilla’s ‘Welcome 2 Detroit’, through David Bowie tribute album ‘Modern Love’, to a special new ‘Worldwide’ compilation from old friend Gilles Peterson. BBE Music will also be looking to the future with more exciting original artist projects, plus merch collaborations events and more...
