Make It Ruff, Make It Smooth

Shades Of Sound round off their year with founder @joemorris returning to the label with an original four track EP. A tale of two sides, Joe delivers two cuts for the dance and two tracks more experimental and downtempo in nature, showing off his love for both club and chilled occasions. 

Lead track Skydance leans into Joe's love of 90's deep house, rich in melody and swirling heavenly synth lines over punchy direct drums.

PREMIÈRE: Joe Morris - Skydance

The influence of the UK’s Steel City on electronic music is well documented and undisputed and continues to push the envelope with key Sheffield figures like Winston Hazel, Richard Benson, Parrot/Crooked Man, Chris Duckenfield, a thriving underground club scene and the likes of Synaptic Voyager reinforcing the city’s rich musical legacy. 

Matt White and Paul Baines have been making off-kilter, emotive, late night electronic jams since meeting in 1991 and while life took them on different paths for a while, they have recently blown the thick layer of dust from their synths and drum machines and got busy in the studio to create some amazing new music which draws influence from that classic UK techno sound which played such an important part in the development of dance music culture around the world. With recent releases on Frame Of Mind, Acquit and Telomere Plastic the duo are clearly on a roll, wearing the heritage of their city on their sleeve and delivering what can only be described as heartfelt, authentic machine music made with love and soul.  

From the opening beats of lead track ‘Dawn Till Dusk’ we are drawn in to another place which feels comfortably familiar yet organic, fluid and loose in a way that tugs on the heartstrings. A million miles from cookie-cutter tech house, this is two guys in a bedroom studio, digging deep on hardware machines to create a sound to get completely lost in. ‘Lonely Promontory’ takes things deeper still with immersive pads, taught electro beats and blissed-out melodic lines which give just hint of optimism and recall those beloved sounds of B12, Redcell and Likemind.  

Flipping over ‘Stellar Engine’ goes a littler heavier on the beats and bass whilst still retaining a floating quality, once again highlighting the hardware jam workflow that Synaptic Voyager utilize in their studio. Next up ‘Once Exposed’ takes us back to those heady days of the early 90’s when techno, house and ambient electronics combined to create a heady blend of deep atmospherics and driving beats which could work on both dance floors and car stereos alike.  Rounding off the EP is ‘Cognitive Network’ which goes for a straighter four on the floor techno groove and a killer bassline to lose yourself in. These recordings were delivered to the label in unedited long form (some tracks totaling 15 minutes or more in length!) which Jimpster lovingly edited into the versions which you hear on this release
