Bside Incoming: Cortese

This week’s episode of Bside Incoming, invites a Brighton based duo to show off their favourites, old and new, from the flip side of their record collection. It’s Cortese.

Their career was kickstarted by their 2019 release of ‘Renault Sport’. Since then, with releases on Shall Not Fade’s sub label Tin White and Fort Romeau’s renowned Cin Cin label, Cortese have cemented themselves as serious producer’s of the underground scene. 

It is always a pleasure to explore the depths of such talented producers’ collections, and hear the sounds that inspire them: From techno rollers to lo-fi house, Cortese bring a deep and dark energy with warm synthy overtones.

Their label Plaza acts as home for their own self released music as well as hosting other talented artists making house, breaks and leftfield - https://plazaplazaa.bandcamp.com/music

Bside Incoming: Cortese

Bside podcasts

DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records.

We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side:
a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors.
An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between.

Music is for sharing.

'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
