Random Musings, February 2017

Gunther, Elias Merheb (Stamina) - Gone To House (Cid Inc Remix) OUT NOW!

exclusive | Natebytheway - Snazzy init | Beatnik Collective

With Beatnik Collective stepping into its third chapter, the Manchester label - helmed by Adam and Rossa - ushers in its first full artist EP, “Hardtoknow” by Natebytheway. The four-tracker marks both an end and a beginning for the San Francisco-born producer: his last works produced in Berlin before returning home, yet also the latest step in a steadily rising trajectory that already saw him turn heads with a standout release on Growing Pleasures, championed by the likes of Dr. Banana.

The A2 cut, “Snazzy init”, distills Nate’s sonic identity into five and a half minutes of understated mischief. Opening with otherworldly, space-flecked tones, the track swiftly grounds itself in a supple, groove-laden house bassline - neither flashy nor forceful, but irresistibly head-nodding. Falsetto-style vocal chops weave in and out like fleeting apparitions, giving the track a playful eccentricity without ever breaking its cool. Piano stabs punctuate the mix, trading places with those airy cosmic flourishes, lending a subtle tension-and-release dynamic that makes the track feel alive without ever overreaching.

It’s laidback, it’s slick, and it’s got that sly “must-drop” character that sneaks its way into nearly any set. “Snazzy init” slides in, takes control of the floor, and leaves you wondering why you’d ever want to play anything else. Natebytheway proves once again that his grooves may be born in Berlin, but their pull is universal.

Porter Robinson - Unison (Roses Remix)

John Digweed’s Bedrock label is focused on releasing exceptional, forward-thinking electronic music, constantly working with some of the world’s finest artists, whose musical palettes are intensely inspired and musically diverse. Quivver (aka John Graham) is one such true musical innovator, a legend in electronic music circles and renowned as being one of the scene’s most essential creators since the early 1990’s. 
The chilled ‘Reprise’ versions of (the excellently titled) ‘Mumbo Jumbo’ and ‘This Was’ were critically acclaimed highlights on the recent ‘Bedrock 18’ album, and now, to kick-off 2017 in style, the original club versions are set for their own single release.

As you would expect from one of the world’s finest electronic producers, innovative experimentation flows freely through Quivver productions, with ‘Mumbo Jumbo’ leading the way…

“The title ‘Mumbo Jumbo’ came about as I was trying to come up with vocal ideas for the track and did what I usually do - sing nonsense lyrics and try to find a good melody, at which point I usually go back and write proper lyrics, but since I liked the sound of the vocal I left the random nonsense as it was - then fed some of it through Alchemy to make it sound even weirder.” - Quivver

This element of open-minded electronic research has created an exceptionally original element for what is a gloriously groovy, hip-swinging, melodic gem that constantly mutates and develops from start to finish. This spirit of experimentation is continued with the deeply delicious vibes of ‘This Was’, and yet another perfect late-night Quivver delight is the end result.
On the live front, John has been keeping busy playing Quivver shows in South America, Amsterdam, Budapest, Ukraine, and Liverpool recently, and is currently readying himself to tour Japan in late January 2017. Never one to shy away from a creative curve-ball, he has also had a lot of fun playing a couple of live shows recently under his old drum & bass moniker – Skanna – a project he intends to revive with some new releases in the coming months.
