Earth Tones will be accompanied by a remix record entitled Earth Tones Remixes including prolific NYC acts such as J. Albert and Baltra, Atlanta heavy hitter Stefan Ringer and Shall Not Fade label mates Felipe Gordon, Interplanetary Criminal, Effy, Soela & LXURY.

Following their live performances at the latest two Dimension Festival Editions and vinyl releases on international labels such as Slices of a dog, Money Sex, Odd socks and Sorry For This featuring a remix by none other than mr. Marcellus Pittman, Nas1 are finally back on Bosconi Extra Virgin with a new album titled Polaris Time.
It’s a multi colored sonic adventure, moving from their hip hop and detroit house roots to a new palette of sounds including afro percussions and fresher synth lines blended together into a unique electronic soundscape that creates exotic, psychedelic atmospheres and unconventional, raw midtempo dance-floor tracks.
The Album begins with the enchanting ballad of “L’ isola di Serie B” , moving deeper with the spaced out vibe of Domino Skii , landing on the more tropical and frivolous scenarios of “Cicci Briucci” and on the laid-back interlude of “Il Sangue Non Serve A Niente”.
In the beginning of the flip side appears instead the jazzy and uplifting first cut named “Frigo Deca”, followed by the freaky jam of “Come Thru” and the adventurous balearic tune “Hector Savage” ending with the ethereal closing skit “Il Sangue Non Serve A Niente (outro)"
Fans of Kyle Hall, Theo Parrish as well as John Talabot or Nicola Cruz are warned, absolutely not to be missed if you have been following Nas1 music so far.

Real J is back, but not like you’ve heard him before. His new mini-album will be released on Waxtefacts, a label he runs with his close friends.

Real J approached "The Memory Screen" LP with a distinct frame of reference— distorted sonic memories of his early childhood. The result is a collection of atmospheric cuts with sprinkles of sunshine and expert transitions between heavy drums and haunting industrial flourishes.

The LP features four solo tracks, as well as collaborations with newcomer Kerstone and heavyweight groove maestro Glenn Astro. Each track is unique in terms of groove and mood, but the rich distorted textures and warmth remain throughout. This mini-album is a cohesive work from start to finish. If you only want a small taste before embarking, then A1 – Sweet Anxiety, and B1 – Transmission 7 (in collaboration with Glenn Astro) are the places to start.
Sweet Anxiety (A1) is driven by an 808-style kick-drum and distorted clap. The groove is courtesy of intricate, skippy hi-hat patterns, which constantly develop and grow throughout, while a growling bassline and a spaced-out synth line arrive to provide further depth. The variation means upon every listen there will be new details that emerge.

Transmission 7 (B1) starts steady, with a filtered pad and keys that slowly build throughout. More intricate and seemingly randomized hi-hats keep this one ticking along. Another distorted kick-drum fills out the bottom of the track. Layers of percussive elements provide incredible melody lines in the back-half of the track. This is not a typical Glenn Astro track, nor is it a typical Real J one, for that matter.

Real J’s production has clearly evolved since his last release on Wolf Music back in 2017. This is an extremely unique LP that he clearly poured his all into. We recommend you grab it before it sells out.

The fourth multi-artist EP from blog-turned-record label Innate takes the imprint’s inherently warm and far-sighted sound into new intergalactic directions, offering up a quartet of cuts from established producers and rising stars: all inspired by dreams of cross-cosmic travel and the alluring weightlessness of deep space.

While all of Innate’s previous releases have tended towards the futuristic and otherworldly, EP number four explores the label’s love of stargazing electronic music much more explicitly. It features tracks that tend towards the timeless, mixing shimmering, life-affirming melodies, starburst electronics and twinkling chords. 

The A-side is all about deep, melodious and spacey electro, with tracks coming courtesy of two artists who are at very different stages in their musical careers. Up first is Steven Brunsmann AKA Aroy Dee, an experienced and much-loved Dutch scene stalwart making a rare appearance away from his acclaimed M>O>S Recordings label. “Leegte”, his sole outing of 2020 so far, is impressively immersive with Brunsmann cloaking a jaunty bassline and lo-fi electro beats in sumptuous aural textures and glassy-eyed chord sequences. The second slab comes courtesy of Innate label regular Gilbert, whose dedication to the more melodious and ear-catching end of the machine soul spectrum has been such a feature of the imprint’s releases to date. “Furthest Planet” may well be his most inspired musical workout yet: a deep electro roller whose lilting lead lines, shimmering electronics, yearning chords and tumbling acid lines are little less than life-affirming.

Over on side B, the sound subtly shifts towards the vibrant, multi-coloured sci-fi shimmer of techno in its purest form. First to make his mark is label newcomer Jonski, an alternate alias for fast-rising Bristol electro producer Zobol (real name Jon Chimielewski). “Venusian Surface” is classic star-gazing techno, with vivid chords, echoing synth squiggles, bubbly TB-303 motifs and alluring lead lines rising above a classic tech-funk bassline and bustling machine drums. To round of a great EP in style, Innate turns to effervescent Welshman DJ Guy. Fresh from inspired outings on Unthank and Other World Music, the Cardiff-based producer slams down a sweaty, energetic and forthright techno stomper. “Aphelion Orbit” boasts some brilliantly breathless, jacking drum programming – all machine-gun snare fills and snappy handclaps – but it’s the celestial shimmer of the accompanying chords and melodies that lingers longest in the memory. It’s a perfect conclusion to Innate’s most melodious and action-packed release to date.

Finally making an appearance on his own label @breathingroomrecords, @igorbmusic is setting the mood for the transition from autumn to winter. The Raindrops EP sees the Canadian artist following up on his debut LP, Stranded Seaside, released earlier this summer on Ibiza’s NuNorthern Soul. Shedding the lower BPMs and sunny air of the album, this time he opts for more dancefloor-friendly compositions with some darker atmospheres cropping up as the release progresses from song 1 to 4, just as the weather does the same outside.

The title track features friend and talented collaborator Ian Usher. Together, he and Igor create a groove-laden piece that ebbs and flows just as an early fall day would transition from sun to rain and back again. From the swelling guitars in the break to the deep bass and the solo at the piece’s climax, Ian’s talents are on full display and merge beautifully with Igor’s production efforts. Second up is Dry Leaves, an upbeat solo composition that blends dusty percussion, Igor’s trademark element, with some arpeggiated synth work and deep, lush pads while falling keys in the latter half mimic leaves descending from their canopies.

Igor and Ian combine for another track on the release. Whirlwinds is an amalgam that brings together influences from all over the musical spectrum, with instruments such as the ney, oud and bongos winding together like the swirling updrafts of a late fall storm. The EP closer, Poseidon’s Calling, is the moodiest of the bunch. Haunting melodies and swelling pads combine to create a bittersweet atmosphere which reminds you that the dark days of winter are not so far ahead.Bass and guitars on Raindrops performed by Ian Usher.Bass guitar on Whirlwinds performed by Ian Usher.

John “Cyclonix” Wilcox is the original raver, the sort of person who knows the roots of his music inside out. He can craft an electronic music sculpture that echoes both the classic dance sound of the UK (bass heavy, chord based, break sampling and crisp), and the purest Chicago and Detroit house and techno influences. Some of the highlights on his career include releasing on cult labels like Tusk Wax, Smuggler’s Inn, Bristol’s Boogie Café and Phuture Shock Musik or contemporary dance floor soul staple Broadcite among other highly recommended projects.

“Efeito Borboleta” is his take on the Percebes sound and it features three incredible originals and a home-made remix by girl of the moment Sheri Vari.

It kicks off with “Butterfly Effect”: a deep stomper that could well have been released on Underground Quality or Sistrum. It is space and emotion, bubbling with jungle breaks and 909 power, channeled through the medium of deep, touching house music.

“Gift of a Patient Soul” is a slower burner, a crunchy jazzy mid-tempo acid funker - perfect to get that foot tap on. The remix by Sheri Vari flips it into a psychedelic deep trip, tapping into that odd parallel world where Rick Wade did a track with Maurice Fulton.

“Warm as Hoth” closes the EP. A funky live bass is intertwined by dreamy chords and chaotic melodies, made of stuttering vocal samples. The kind of thing you’d expect if Todd Edwards did a track with Marc Mac: classic UK garage with a jazz-funk vibe and a Detroit Techno feel. Hard to define, but very easy to listen to and play out.
