VANITY PROJECT - LEISURE TAPES VOL.1 (CLPTRPDG006)

We’re headed back to where it all started with a new release from Monaco_band001 - the duo behind the Claptrap label and ‘Business’ the first claptrap 12” back in 2017. You may know them better as Dr Valentines & Vanity Project, but the duo have teamed up to bring you a brand new release featuring ‘Petit Prix’, an OG cut from the archives and 3 remixes - all perfect for those upcoming open air sets!   

The original mix is a downtempo rolling sleepy summer tune, recorded live to 2-track back in 2021, followed up by a pumped up breezy house mix by Dr Valentines. Vanity Project then brings a darker chuggy feel to the release with an acid & vocoder laced ‘Champion Dub’ before we round off with one final mix - Dr Valentines returns for the stripped back Formula 101 mix, a minimal and direct take to see us out.

Recorded and mixed live at Claptrap HQ with an MPC3000 as the heart of the set up and various vintage treats thumping away in it’s wake.

Edinburgh based producer and DJ, DONALD DUST returns with a brand new EP ‘FLUORESCENT MUSIC’.
Hot on the heels of 2018’s “Mars R-Trax’ 7” which caught the attention of the festival circuit and punk contingent in equal measures, his latest 4-tracker packs all the goodness of his golden-era Italo & Chigaco influences into a dancefloor-ready slab of wax. Fluorescent Music will be available on 12” and Digital via Claptrap.

* Pre-order: https://claptrap-clptrp.bandcamp.com/album/donald-dust-fluorescent-music

Donald Dust's new offering arrives courtesy of London's Claptrap label and will be distributed by Berlin’s flagship record store Oye. “Fluorescent Music” EP blends the best bits of early mid-80’s Chicago House; the melodic side of The Hague's late 90s and early 2000s sound shaped by the likes of I-f and Intergalactic Gary; and also there are palpable hints of early experiments in Italo Disco. We couldn’t think of a better blend of sounds and styles ourselves!

Today Bolting Bits are premiering B1 track from the release titled “Rescue ships approaching”. Kudos to Donald for a really nice work on the drums and percussion, but this time the rhythmic part of the track will have to hold the candle for the synths. The arpeggiated line rolling almost throughout the track will surely get you hooked and cosmic pads and stabs with other synthesized melodic elements will transport you deep into interstellar space. In case you will start feeling alone in far-flung reaches of outer space or in case there are worrying glitches with your life support systems, don’t be afraid as rescue ships are fast approaching.“Fluorescent Music” EP is out on June 21st as a 12" and digital package. Get your copy here!
