Ascent

spaceship

Lush pads, dreamy, lo-fi and a bit scratchy.

Abyssal

In homage to the infamous post rave meet up that exists on the fringes Tisno’s famed festival site Forriner have produced an emotive summer house anthem for the ages. ‘Meet Me At Burgerellas’ is built on tear jerking strings, clever piano hooks and a chest thumping bass riff that all hangs together over super tight, punchy drums. Label stewards Clandestino pick up the house baton and run wild with it, initially going for a deeper vibe until letting rip with firing 909 drums and heady arps. Their slower ‘Sunrise’ take is a more contemplative affair, dropping the beats completely letting the strings breathe and soar while adding subtle fluttering keys and dawn break pianos. ‘The Cat & Dog Stairs’ is aching for open air dance-floors with its genial, atmospheric synths and melodic feel. A polished house track dripping with style. Longhair stick to the summery brief by turning out a shimmering mid-tempo house rework; it’s lush keys sparkling over an infectious bassline conjuring up images of the sun glinting off the sea.

Sitting deep in the Amazon jungle, Elevator Edit #7 is a capoeira invocation-turned-cosmic chugger from Elevator East man Mikey Sibson, encapsulating the ethos of the clubnight, Available for download on Bandcamp.

PREMIERE : Capoeira Na Casa (Elevator Edit)

If there's anything to make this joyless summer brighter then surely it's a new Afterlife release. One man Balearic machine Steve Miller does it again with the Summer Of Love EP; four cuts steeped in accomplished musicianship ranging from jazzy soulful touches to moodier, bluesey affairs. Here we feature 'Fou', a smoky, skankin' little number with playful congas to offset it's edgier synths.  Sunnier climes might be out of reach for many of us this year, but all you really have to do is let Afterlife take you there.

SUMMER OF LOVE

PREMIERE: Afterlife - Fou [Subatomic]

As the world and its wife tries to board the last plane out of 2020, Eclectics rolls up with a charter flight big enough to ferry all-comers to Shangri-La. The Oh! EP, from Ibiza-based Italian producer Luca Averna and legendary British veteran Chris Coco, is 35 minutes of delightful, deep-dive distraction from a world gone mad.

This isn’t simply a collection of tunes sitting cheek-by-jowl with their remixes, this is a soaring suite – a movement in five parts put together with care, confidence and consummate craft.

First up on the in-flight entertainment is “There Is No Planet B”. Despite the distress-signal sentiment of the title, it’s an audio hug of breathy synths, languorous lead lines and slow, whirling propeller percussion. A mid-paced reminder that we really are all in this together, the melodic flow coalesces midway through, giving directions to the dance.

The Veteran Delinquents (Joe’s Bakery and Passport to Paradise stalwart Craig Christon along with producer Tim Hutton) pick up the baton and increase the momentum like veteran DJs reading the room. Their remix follows on seamlessly from the original, bigging up the boogie with handclaps, piano and a beat that channels electro and new wave New York.

Next up is Jazxing (The Very Polish Cut-Outs/ Transatlantyk), who find another gear and chug straight ahead – full steam in widescreen. Increasing the bandwidth even further they throw in guitar licks and percussive punctuation, forcing the familiar melody into bold new territory.

And suddenly, there you are, in the middle of a four-to-the-floor groove for discerning dancers after a journey so smooth you couldn’t even feel the corners.

As the bass peters out, title track “Oh!” blossoms into view, building slowly, layers lapping over each other, gentle yet steady, fragile but with a firm foothold. The pace has quickened, but the pin-perfect pacing means you don’t realise until you’re halfway in and committed to the ride. Oh! indeed…

Then, the final act. Once again, Eclectics frequent flier James Bright tales the controls and banks away beautifully from the original, leading you into territory littered with broken beats, rippling synths and an afro-infused groove. This is all played out against a gentle backdrop, a watercolour wash of sound that smooths the flightpath, tempers the turbulence and joins the dots between guitar flourishes and snare snaps.   You have reached your destination. Enjoy.

Luca Averna & Chris Coco - There is no Planet B(Jazxing Remix)

The Mysidian label drops Ftzzgrld’s first EP of original tunes and they’re an absolute treat.

1993 features 3 deep numbers and tops it off with Roy Comanchero (Running Back, Alliance Upholstery) of Osaka, Japan’s remix of the title track.

All the right influences from ’93 are there while still sounding fresh! Being one of our favorite records of 2021 so far and it just being Ftzzgrld’s first EP on vinyl we might be getting ahead of ourselves when we say we’re already excited to hear more from both Ftzzgrld & Roy Comanchero!
