----------
'The back end of summer will see Italian DJ and producer Christopher Ledger inaugurate his own Hidden Folder label. A new and innovative project that will see Christopher enter uncharted territory embracing the versatility of his sound by releasing various strains of emotive house and progressive, entities which can also be found in his sets in recent times. The 001 release wanders through four distinct cuts from Ledger (one of those digital only), and in addition, there is a classy and uplifting remix from Danish producer C.K, a key member of the famous 2 Bit Crew. 

The opening track “Initialization” is constructed upon tight and punchy drum patterns, conversing perfectly with the elasticated bass line that drives the track. Melt in your mind synths glistening throughout. The aptly named “Lunar Empathy” enters the room next, an enormous energy is created by the Rome-based beatmaker. Dusty nostalgic drums and plucky bass change-ups make this a journey for the moments. 

“A Deeper Thought” leads the way on the B side, an intricately arranged quest, transcending its listener, but yet still moving the dance floor. A beautiful combination of depth and drive, a key component of Ledger’s current sound. C.K remixes “A Deeper Thought” steering it in a new direction, and inspirational house exploration looking to lift the vibe, oozing with feel-good energy. Sitting as a digital-only track is the irresistible groove, “Logical Form”, a playful and animated addition to the EP, which will sit comfortably within collections far and wide this year. 

Landing on wax with a limited press of 40 copies and on digital, Christopher embarks on an exciting new chapter of his career, further cementing himself as a stand-out producer of modern times, never shying away from straining the boundaries of his sound and implementing this all into his craft as a DJ.'

If you were an active guest at record stores in 2019 and 2020, you, should probably recall the name of Kellon and the label Spillway, which had a short, but very active story. Now they both resurrected, just under other names. Kellon became Viewfinder, and the label transformed into the name of Rescan Records. It seems, that, as on Spillway, the label will have mostly Viewfinder, with some additions of guest producers. The first one of them will be Sasha Nevolin, and I have just managed to take his track for a spin. [continue reading at...https://trommelmusic.com/music/premiere-b2-sasha-nevolin-hempus-rescan02/]

Sueezo - Blasphemy EP (OVEN001)

When we approached the talented Shahd for the artwork of this fundraising release, an essential question echoed on how we want to depict our support for Palestine. The first instinct was to delve into darkness, mirroring the grim reality in Gaza. However, we decided that our mission here is to showcase the beauty of Palestine and the wilful spirit of its people. Despite being trapped in a besieged city, they continue living with unwavering resilience. Yet, with each day passing, even this resilience is systematically being eroded, ending up in renewed chaos since October 7th.

Palestine is not just a land of struggle but a land rich in history, arts, and culture. It is also the birthplace of unique electronic music and hip-hop artists, artists who have forged a music scene founded on the desire to unite people and break free from oppression.

A very special thanks to Cem Mo, ICTV, Nephews, Nesta, Retromigration, S.A.M., Sandilé, and Sarab for their contributions to this vital cause. Finally, a shout-out to founder of Jazar crew, Ayed, for his constant support and inspiration. 
All proceeds will go to the Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP).

Release Date: 09.01.2023
