Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS205

Mona Yim debuts on Rekids with ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’, featuring remixes from Radio Slave.

Born and raised between Singapore and Germany and now based in Berlin, Mona Yim spent time bouncing between the clubs of London, Berlin, and Paris while honing her craft, culminating in a recent remix for DJ Seinfeld’s ‘Tell Me One More Time’ on Ninja Tune. Now readying her debut solo release on Rekids, Mona Yim delivers two dreamy house cuts for the imprint, backed with a pair of remixes from label-boss Radio Slave.

Leading the release, ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’ brings crispy, bouncing drums alongside moody pads and subtle vocal chops, building up to an emotive breakdown. Radio Slave beefs up the drum patterns with breakbeats for his remix, adding additional atmospheric FX to existing melodic elements for a chunky, driving track. 

‘Dots Obsession’ sees floaty percussion, gentle synth work and vocals working in tandem to craft a soft yet evocative house jam. Injecting a pumping 4/4 pattern alongside elements of the original, Radio Slave’s interpretation brings the energy levels up with pitch-perfect dub FX and swirling synthesis.

Where do two contented faces arrive from on Noordeinde Street? Of course, from the doors of the vinyl store that has just filled their tote bag with savoury releases. Get to know them! These are Needle and Plate, native Europeans, record collectors and just friends for whom hanging out and communicating with members of the creative movement is sheer bliss.

Once the conversation heads to genres and tastes, everything else ceases to exist. And it doesn't matter what the weather is outside: the main thing is that the music doesn't stop playing. Yet, there is no better reason for a walk than a sunny day and a bottle of craft beer. This is the opinion of those who disappear for days in search of a sound close in spirit, such that it will tell about the inner self more accurately than any words. The real chase for chippies starts now!

Avi Snow, Tamir Regev & No/Me team up for ‘Metaphysical’ with KONG. on Bedouin’s Human By Default this August.

New York-based producer Tamir Regev has worked on various projects and under several aliases throughout the past decade, producing for other people as well as solo. Multi-instrumentalist, writer, and producer Avi Snow is one of his frequent collaborators and is a master of indie-pop grooves. Also involved in this release is No/Me, a singer-songwriter, and KONG.

The majestic title track opens up with a spine-tingling excursion filled with hypnotic percussion, gorgeous acoustic strings, and a tender and soft vocal. It's a rich track that makes an impression well beyond the dance floor. Tamir Regev then goes solo for 'The Old Days', an exquisitely enchanting sound with subtlety rousing vocals and a gentle smattering of organic hits and chords.

Buying a couple of tickets to an exhibition of abstract art is just half of the deal because you still need to manage to have fun. For this purpose, an audio guide is intended for this cursed art gallery. It seems like someone lives on the other side of the canvases. It is waiting for the chance to grab your hand and drag you away. The voices in the headphones unavoidably intensify the reality.

– These silhouettes are alarming, Needle... 
– Definitely, Plate! 
– I haven't seen something like this for a long time. 
– It looks creepy in combination with the sound. Choosing Bauch's music as an accompaniment was a great idea!

Another cultural weekend has a chance to turn into something fascinating – especially when everything is filled with ornate geometry and pedigreed arrangements.

Into The Woods continues their vinyl only series with another set of classy productions, as they move onto their third release handing over to the insanely talented Alexis Cabrera. The EP titled Serial Light comes with three tracks of immense quality and variation, showcasing the depth of Cabrera’s musicality. Each track has been expertly by the Argentinian and carefully sequenced by the brand onto this record with a place for each on the dance floor.

B1 Alexis Cabrera - Serial Light

— I'm glad Chris has let us jam. Listen, what if we start a live duet?
— Come on, I'm too old for this crap. And how do you manage to do all that with your paws?
— I just watch educative broadcasts on Alien-TV sometimes. They talk about different software, hardware and approaches to music production.

The sound was spreading through the body, naturally causing headshakes and goosebumps. It all came down to an instinctive feeling of the world encapsulated in a cosy room. There was a mystery here, the one the comparison with which the previous adventures couldn't stay. Amongst many dimensions, the current one had a particular elusive magnetism. The charm of the home studio reflected punctuality and a love for music. Improvised delights called out kindred spirits, guiding them to the moment of mutual dissolution and self-adjustment.

— But there are lots of curiosities that are out of reach of science…
— Feel the Zen effect, my friend; the chosen path is not accidental.
— Cat? Did you just say that?!
