Syntonic

DRRTYWULVZ releases his first full length album, Ah Yes, on Street Ritual. An awe-inspiring 11-track masterpiece emerges into surface filled with deep bass which fluctuates through mind melting dubs, electrifying glitch grooves, and trickling melodies. Psychedelia, enigma, and synthesizer metamorphosis dominates the feel of this journey as each texture encapsulates a sound so fresh, organic, and imaginative. It flows through a flare found through a forest of fractalizing waves and lush greens. Prepare for pulsating beats, alluring rhythms, grimey feels, and deep sub focus as each tune is filled with a howling planet found in outer space, it’s DRRTYWULVZ.

The award winning and Gilles Peterson-approved Danish supergroup Kalaha returns with their first release in almost two years: the EP 'Mama Ngoma'. 

The EP is first and foremost a tribute to West African traditions like Highlife and Afrobeat but mixed with the dance floor appeal of contemporary electronic music. 

The backbone of the band comes from the outrageous drumming of Emil de Waal, who's improvisational attitude is known to astound audiences around the world, alongside the finely balanced guitar of Niclas Knudsen, who has been studying and refining African techniques for more than a decade now. 

On top of this, the two highly regarded electronic producers and synth wizards, Rumpistol & Spejderrobot, take the band to new musical hemispheres by adding layers through extra-terrestrial synths, analogue effects and spaced out samples. 

The electronic aspect of the EP is further expanded with two remixes from NYC-based MALAKAI and Danish rising star Bwoy de Bhajan. 

The EP is accompanied by an animated video directed by the group's art director Zven Balslev, and in the spring of 2019 follows an entire album titled 'Mandala'. 

Track by Track 

The EP kicks off with the catchy and highly danceable 'Mama Ngoma', which combines African mud huts with epic science fiction. We then reach the hypnotic horn attack of 'Cape Star', featuring wonderful guitar work from Knudsen, before the West Coast inspired 'Malaika' leads into an outro that’s like Talking Heads, if David Byrne was replaced by a Speak&Spell computer! 

Fourth track and first single 'Dragon Jenny' shows the band in more mellow and reflective territories without losing their groove. The track has already received airplay around the world. 

To finish things off we're proud to have the NYC-based producer MALAKAI present his dubsteppy anagram remix of 'Malaika', before rising star Bwoy de Bhajan spoils us with his minimalistic take on 'Cape Star', reminiscent of some of Shackletons earlier percussion-driven work. 

The EP has had early support from The Rust Music (US), Jay Scarlett (DE/Sound Supreme/Puls), Mathieu Schreyer (US/KCRW), Descroix (DK/Iboga), P8 Jazz (DK), The Slow Music Movement (UK), Dancefloor Mayhem (US), Synths of Eden (DE), Pouled'or (DE), Radio Prun (F), Mantra Radio at CITR FM (CAN), Dubmission (US), Heartbeats (DK), O Dominio Dos Deuses (PT), Hakan Tamar (TU) & Mushpost Radio on WAXX.FM (US/James Cook).

Mini Mix (Ugly Noise)

Street Ritual has long held a reverence for the hard and heavy sounds of the electronic fringe. Like a special language spoken by only the devout, it is these kinetic productions that continue to ignite our love affair with bass music as musicians from scenes new and old twist the byzantine sounds of the underground into increasingly provocative incarnations with each new release. 

A tribute to the rebellious and wild — to the low-end fanatics and shadowy seekers among us — Street Ritual presents the ‘Hard & Heavy’ Compilation.’ Capturing the essence of our unflinching musical aesthetic through twelve acts of seditious bass, our Summer 2020 VA pulls from the realms of halftime, dubstep, drum and bass, neuro, and the endless dark spaces in between to offer a glimpse of the next frontiers of hard and heavy electronica.
