Bside Incoming: 1-800 GIRLS x Par Avion

We have another excellent episode of Bside Incoming for you!

Made in London by two good friends and flat mates bouncing off each other's Bside selections. Digging through the very finest of the flip side we have Jake and Benjamin, AKA 1-800 Girls and Par Avion.

With a background in New Wave bands and a renown for high octane DJ sets, 1-800 Girls' productions usually sit somewhere between the two. The nostalgic warmth of hardware productions and the hard hitting energy that often defines his dance floor selections.
Be sure to check out all his releases, and a notable mention to the B2 Sundown Edit of his title track ‘U’ Me And Madonna’ on the Australian netlabel clipp.art:

Par Avion is a selector who runs a collective and imprint by the same name, as well as the Mutual Trust events with Salary Boy. With a passion for intelligent dance music, a keen ear for great audio, and an impressive music collection: The two combine for a Bside Back2Back that has all the intimacy of a listening session with fellow music lovers.

Expect everything from deep and soothing electronica through to vibrant house and disco edit, soul, funk, acid, afro, breakbeats and everything in between.

Check them both out on Soundcloud:

PREMIERE #1219 | NHz - Dawn Chorus [Stolen Groove] 2020

Purchase: https://koyang.bandcamp.com/album/fp-riza

Next up on Bliss Point is "Fp" / "Riza", two expertly crafted house cuts from Ko Yang, a DJ, producer and promoter out of Kyoto, Japan.

A founding member of the long running City Boy Lounge parties in Osaka, Ko Yang and friends have hosted a number of familiar names - Axel Boman, Soichi Terada, Shinichiro Yokota, and Fatima Yamaha, to name a few.

CBL is a homegrown affair. The crew bring their own system to the back of a cafe once a month to heat up the early half of a good night out. “After the party finishes, everyone relaxes outside the cafe,” Ko Yang writes. “Then they miss the last train and head to the nightclub.”

“Our party is the warm up for night. That’s our responsibility for music culture in Osaka.”

I’m excited to welcome Ko Yang into the Bliss Point family with "Fp" / "Riza", two exquisite dance floor constructions from a well seasoned DJ and party person.

Mastered by Helmut Erler at Dubplates & Mastering.

As usual Dance Ideas 6 brings a little dance floor moment for Grandma Daisy, Uncle Ron, and your Cocker Spaniel Sammy.

South-Korean DJ JNS, the founder and head of Honey Badger Records in Seoul, is dropping his debut feature-length album, “Miasma,” on October 30th. JNS is steadily rising in the electronic community, having performed a killer set for Boiler Room Seoul in 2019 (his second Boiler Room following his debut in 2016), and having debuted numerous original songs and remixes on famed radio stations like BBC  Radio 1, NTS, Redlight Radio, and Worldwide FM. He has also been at the forefront of showcasing South Korean talent through his record label, which is coming off a productive year with three EP releases, including Closet Yi’s sensational “Ruminate EP” which we covered on the site back in May.

	“Sour Grapes”, the third track off the album, is a deceivingly mellow cut that involves layers of instrumentation to create a steadily escalating groove. Starting off with a jaunty bass-line, skittering percussion quickly settles in giving the track a slightly high-strung energy. This is soon balanced out by spacey synth washes and that recurring bassline. The track ultimately shapes itself into a tight-yet-languid micro-house tune, existing somewhere in the space between restless and chilled-out. 

	JNS seems to languish in this tough balancing act. The tempo increases toward the end of the track, but cuts off just before it feels like it might finally spin out of control. It’s clear from this track along that JNS is a master craftsman of finely-tuned, expressive House that defies easy categorization.

Detroit’s Jason Hogans steps up for Alelah Records as the first producer from across the pond to offer their own unique set of house groove for the label. And what a groove we’re given; five tracks peruse through low-slung, synth-heavy beats pushed by infectious drum breaks.

‘Why Keep Going’ is all about innocent synths in the mids met by some sleaziness in the low end. The basslines continue and on ‘Big Room Slaps’, it takes centre stage, making things real murky. ‘Dance While You Sleep’ combines a hard-hitting beat with a soft series of loose keys and a warm synth.

‘Do Away With Borders’ is Hogan venturing into stranger territory: bass deep from the depths and filtered, floating keys come up to the surface while a drowned out sample bops its way into view as the track rolls. ‘Hazy Funk Slap’, finally, breaks out into a full on frenzy of jazz drums - naughty.
