Crustation were a short-lived trip-hop group with ties to Portishead and Massive Attack; their 1997 single "Flame" was a perfectly nice, totally innocuous, and mostly forgettable contribution to the drowsy downbeat catalog. The journeymen producers Mood II Swing put their characteristically light, funky touch on a club-friendly remix of the song, as they did hundreds of times during their run as New York's most dependable remixers. But Mood II Swing also had a murkier, more abstracted side; you can hear it in productions like "Move Me," "The Slippery Track," and the eerie "Inhale," which sounds like Gary Numan's "Cars" being sucked through a Teflon wormhole. But they outdid themselves on the "Borderline Insanity Dub" of "Flame," lacing a skipping, proto-U.K.-garage beat with hiccupping vocal loops and a lithe, shadowboxing bass line; the icing on the cake comes courtesy of a swirling fog of vocal harmonies that pans from speaker to speaker. Running out of phase with the beat, it lends a sense of tidal ebb-and-flow, throwing the time deliriously out of joint. The fact that Mood II Swing never produced anything else quite like it only makes this fluid, enveloping tune all the more irreplaceable. P.S.

Pleasant Systems label head Tilman returns to his own stable with the full length „The Spirit Continues“ for ostensible dancefloor pleasure.
Since 2008, the German producer Tilman has been honing his craft in House music through numerous EP’s on various respected labels and here we see him deliver his fourth long player. Taking influence from 80s NYC proto-garage and Nu Groove’s era of deep house Tilman creates a collection of works which encapsulate the essence of his sound and history with House music over the past two decades, embracing a raw yet dreamy aesthetic throughout.
Across the ten tracks Tilman employs sturdy, jacking rhythm sections, ethereal atmospherics, bumpy bass lines, shimmering chord sequences, infectious vocals and enchanting top lines culminating in somatic ecstasy.

"Australian producer and current Berlin resident Holo makes his highly anticipated return to Shall Not Fade with his third EP on the independent Bristol-based label.

Known for his signature sound that blends emotive melodies with infectious grooves, Holo has carved out a space for himself as a forward-thinking artist with a deep understanding of mood and atmosphere. His recent releases, including Nights Over Melbourne and a self titled LP in 2024, have both garnered widespread acclaim for their evocative production and seamless fusion of house, techno, and atmospheric elements. With every new release, Holo pushes the boundaries of modern dance music, establishing himself as a key figure in the underground scene.

Pink Wax delivers warm, hazy deep house at its finest, showcasing Holo’s distinctive talent for creating music that evokes lasting memories. The EP is a stunning blend of lush synth lines, ethereal vocals, and smooth drums, offering a timeless interpretation of modern dance music.

Pink Wax EP drops Friday, March 12th via Shall Not Fade."

Intimacy joins us for our fifth release to brighten up these long winter days. Based in quiet, laid back East Memphis, Intimacy’s music draws from alone time, video game soundtracks, internet archives and deep thought astral projection. 

The four track EP titled “Tracks From The Myst” unleashes a dose of heavy 4x4 tracks, combining organic nostalgic narrative melodies with punchy acid lines, lush pads and glacial chimes. 

Enigmatic house and techno for your heart and soul!

Guy Gerber's Supplement Facts imprint signals the end of 2012 with a Various Artist sampler entitled 'Things Have Changed EP'. Featuring a few household names alongside some future stars; Alexkid, Borrowed Identity & Mechanical Soul Brother, Gab Rhome and Andrew Grant & Lomez, all appear on this release filled with quality and diversity.

After critically acclaimed works on Rekids, Freerange & Desolat, Alexkid opens things up with a monstrous kick drum on 'Euclidean'. Layers of lush arpeggiated synths unfold around shuffling percussion culminating in a hypnotic climax that peaks with the release of a throbbing bassline.

Borrowed Identity & Mechanical Soul Brother get the party started on 'With You'' serving up a hazy sub bassline and skipping highs giving this one plenty of old school flavour. Spacey pads swirl and cascade in and around the mix paving the way for a breakdown of epic proportions to provide serious hands in the air moment.

On the flip Gab Rhome kicks things off with a samba inspired bassline before a cleverly arranged call and response snare and clave pattern are introduced to create the groove. Expert melodic layering is complimented by several carefully selected vocal snippets showcasing this producer’s strong understanding of sonic textures.

Fresh off the back of a massive release on EDEC Music Outlet, Circoloco resident Andrew Grant & Lomez are left with closing duties and they do not disappoint. A big kick drum coupled with a funky offbeat bassline set the tone whilst airy pads pulsate in and out of the mix. Shimmering samples and brassy synth riffs build the tension until a groove laden high end is finally released much to the listeners delight.
