Historia Mal Contada

Caminar En El Suelo (Hipnosis Nocturna Mix)

Drown ft. Benjamin Franklin - Yes Lord (Original)

Since forming over a decade ago, Seaweed Rhythm has quietly established itself as one of the most consistent and lovingly curated labels on the European underground circuit. Founded by Stockholm-based artist Zlene, the label has grown from a grassroots platform for close friends and local talent into an internationally respected outlet that’s home to some of minimal’s most cherished names – think Melchior Productions Ltd, Silat Beksi, and Priku. But behind the heavyweight roster and steadily growing discography is a genuine sense of community, care, and curiosity that drives everything they do.

Operating out of a studio near the sea, Zlene and his collaborators have long infused their work with a palpable connection to nature. Whether through field recordings, aquatic textures, or the subtle activism of donating label profits to wildlife causes, Seaweed Rhythm’s identity is shaped as much by its environment as it is by the dancefloor. There’s a tactile, almost hand-made quality to each release – from the analogue warmth of the sound design to the tattoo-inspired sleeve artwork painted by long-time friend Thure Melander.

Alongside co-running NEU, a beloved basement club in central Stockholm, and hosting intimate events across Sweden and Europe, Zlene has created something that feels both expansive and personal. With a string of standout releases on the horizon, including a new vinyl EP with Egyptian artist Shadi Megallaa and contributions from the likes of Iuly.B and Andu Simion, Seaweed Rhythm’s steady momentum shows no signs of slowing. But at its core, the ethos remains the same: make and share music with love, and let the rest flow naturally. Ahead of the next release (an Shadi Megallaa EP featuring a killer remix by Melchior Productions which we're delighted to premiere in full), we checked in to learn more. Listen here and head to the site to read our interview with Zlene!

Shadi Megallaa - What Now (Melchior Productions Ltd Always Rising Remix) - SEAWEED006)

Poker Flat continues to roar ahead into 2011 with a seriously jam-packed new compilation on CD, Vinyl and Digital, featuring only brand new and exclusive tracks! 

‚Forward to the Past‘, according to label boss Steve Bug, ‚renders homage to the period between ‚85 and ‚92‘, traversing the heady sounds of Chicago House, Acid, New York House and Early Detroit Techno.

The album amasses an all star cast from across the board including the talents of Steve Bug, Martin Landsky, Clé, Redshape, Ribn, The Revenge, Deetron, Sasse, KiNK & Neville Watson and more. ‚Forward To The Past‘ takes in many of todays rising talents alongside faithful veterans of the scene. It‘s really a joy to hear how these top class producers, both vintage and modern, each add their own spin and re-interpret the sounds of the past. Complete with audiophile-approved analog tape mastering, and the highest production values around, its a wonderful tribute to the past, present and future of electronic music!

Opening the selection Steve Bug puts on his jackin‘ shoes in ‚Jack Is Back‘ - a classic Chicago jack-a-thon in the purest form. Martin Landsky continues the US-inspired journey with ‚V2U‘, the man is always on form! Bleep-infused moments come courtesy of the modern masters KiNK & Neville Watson, with ‚Nighttime Raw‘, while Sasse pumps out a seriously heavy windy city-styled attack in ‚Hot For You‘.

Much-loved newcomer The Revenge contributes ‚Elements of Fife‘, a slow grooving New York / Chicago crossover styled beauty. Then, in all out lush-chorded goodness, Ribn gives us their powerful ‚Pancake‘! Newblood Polus hit dead centre with a modern yet hauntingly reminiscent nighttime jam; ‚Patterns In The Dark‘, followed by Deetron‘s deep-bomb ‚The Maze‘ - an amazing journey through the smoke-filled labyrinth.

Berlin mainstay Clé takes us right back with his super funky ‚Feel It (Don‘t Cha Know)‘, warm and classy. Deepsters TJ Kong & Modular K give us their ‚Jack Shit‘ in a slow burning Chi-town acid groover. Cab Drivers return with a real classic-themed killer, ‚Shoulder Pad‘, that harks back to their 90‘s days, and finally the mighty Redshape gives us his darkly acidic ‚Funny Green Hat (Altered Mix), which seriously needs to be heard to be believed!!

The digital release also features three extra tracks, including the original version of Redshape‘s ‚Funny Green Hat‘, along with an alternate version of The Revenge‘s ‚Elements Of Fife (Tone Mix) and another exclusive from Clé - the excellent ‚Muzik Is‘.

Benediction (NTFO revisited) FREE DOWNLOAD

My reinterpretation of a classic is available for free download for one week.

As the first light touches the horizon, sound becomes memory.
A journey through echoes, rhythm, and space—
where Stella rises once more in a new dawn.

Driven by pulse.
Washed in warmth.
Forever lost in the sunrise.

--bio--
Growing up in the midwestern United States, Butane was steeped in the classic underground house and techno sounds that originated in Chicago and Detroit. Further influences came from afar: New York house, west coast house, UK tech house, Cologne techno, Berlin minimal.  His formative years were spent on the dancefloors of legendary venues like Twilo and Vinyl in New York City, Space and Crobar during Miami's Winter Music Conference, and Rednofive in Chicago.

An avid record collector and DJ since 2002, Andrew’s infamous monthly party in St. Louis established an underground scene in the city and became a must-stop for touring international artists.  In 2004, Andrew embarked on his own artistic journey in the studio, despite lacking any formal musical training (a classically trained pianist he was not).  Proving to be a fast learner, his unique and eclectic sound began earning him worldwide acclaim on international record labels in a mere matter of months.  The German press dubbed him a “wunderkind”.  He moved to Berlin shortly after, residing in the city from 2006-2011.  

Now a resident of San Francisco, Butane is renowned for a steadfast commitment to his craft, and stands as a pillar of artistic integrity and consistency in the rapidly changing realm of electronic dance music.  He values studio work over social media, and boasts an impressive and sprawling discography released by some of the most respected imprints in the business.  As the founder of three labels of his own - Alphahouse, Little Helpers, and his new Extrasketch project - Butane's impact on the industry is both deep and enduring.

For over two decades, Andrew has traversed the globe curating unforgettable sonic experiences.  From underground raves to name-brand clubs, electrifying festival stages to poolside soirées, he has graced the decks in over 60 countries.  Infused with energy, finesse, and sophistication, his sets resonate deeply with in-the-know audiences.  Armed with a meticulously curated collection of custom edits, remastered classics, and hidden gems from decades in the house and techno business, Butane draws on his considerable experience moving crowds to deliver versatile, unpredictable, pitch-perfect performances.
