FOURTH KIND | Omniverse Records | OMNILP05
Audition | Time Flies By | Life Cycle | Take Me To Your Sky | Peaceful Sundown, | Afterglows | Synapse | The Star Of A Story | Light Of My Soul | Sky Reprise

Well, this is different… Fourth Kind the self titled mini album on Omniverse Records. It’s hard to pinpoint a genre with records like this; produced by Marc Mac of 4hero and similar to some of the 4hero output, it defies genre and fits somewhere in-between many. The production is heavily reliant on synthesisers and vintage drum machines in places but is full of real life and organic movements, this is partly down to the signature drums played by Luke Parkhouse. The only other guest spot is filled by Nu Jazz Funker Pascal Strauss aka Luman Child who plays bass guitar on “Take Me To Your Sky” which along with “Afterglows” are the closest we get to dance tracks, in most parts a 70s fusion feel is present. The short interlude type tracks are just as important and I would go as far as to say vital to telling the story.  Moogs, Arps and Solina strings weave patterns throughout, all in all, across the 10 tracks the album is a journey of mood and emotions.  Limited Edition 180g Pressing. Released 17th September 2018.

Short Stories - Chapter 1 & 2

Fresh off the back of his lifetime achievement award at the 2019 Gilles Peterson Worldwide Awards, IG Culture and the CoOp Selectors Assemble crew are back with a killer new track from London based producer and vocalist Oliver Night. 
Having established himself as a DJ some 15 years ago, he has built a solid reputation playing across the capital, from the Tate Modern to Boiler Room. His music has been released in the past by the likes of Tony Humphries, Kerri Chandler & Seth Troxler,

This four-tracker illustrates Oliver’s diverse range of influences, from the initial inspiration of his Jamaican uncle, musician Hughie Izachaar (who worked with Lee Scratch Perry & others), through to his passion for London’s broken beat movement. Oliver’s sound epitomises tru-skool UK sound-system ethics; grounded in reggae and dub production sensibilities, whilst built solidly for the bruk and house music dances of today.

[PREMIERE] Oliver Night - Make Believe feat. BB James

What tune we've got for you today. Kerem has been catching the attention of many tastemakers recently with his funk laden, heavily swung grooves. Giving people like Andrés and Theo Parrish a run for their money 'Turkey's most soulful' sure knows his way round a synth or two. Harmonized neo-soul vocals melt sweetly with Kerem's P-Funk basslines and Detroit styled lead lines. Be sure to cop the rest of the V.A this is part of!

Brand new bruk banger from Kuna Maze, “Something To Say” meshes broken beat with the romantic edge of rhythmic Brazilian-funk. Forthcoming on the “Backward” EP for Tru Thoughts. Released 13th August.

“Backward” is a new direction for Kuna Maze and a new chapter for the artist. “It’s a look backwards to go forwards” explains Edouard Gilbert aka Kuna Maze. “It’s the first time on my solo project, that I’m using my background and training as a jazz musician.” Shedding off the post-dubstep sound that was linked to Kuna Maze’s initial success in his hometown of Brussels, “Backward” see’s the DJ, producer and multi-instrumentalist return to his roots, applying his studies of jazz at the Chambery Conservatory in France, to his musicianship and work.

“I want to make music that makes people want to dance. That’s why I love broken beat because it’s at the meeting point between jazz and dance music”. It’s not just broken beat that seeps through on the record, pockets of UKG/garage, house and jazz-fusion amalgamate into the sonic palette of “Backward”; direct influences can be heard from the likes of Domu, Moodymann, Azymuth and Horsepower Productions.

Having just released a collaborative album with French-producer Nikitch titled ‘Débuts' which saw the duo win over tastemakers such as Gilles Peterson, Nemone, Tom Ravenscroft (BBC 6Music), Jamz Supernova (BBC 1Xtra), Tim Garcia (Jazz FM) plus many more, Kuna Maze was motivated to add more live-elements into his productions, using the energy from this project and their extensive time on the road.

The EP artwork, by sculptor, painter and friend - Cedric Esturillo, evokes feelings of both nostalgia and modernity (a sentiment echoed in the music) through the use of collage and aerograph painting. “Aerograph was used a lot for jazz-fusion album covers in the 70s such as Miles Davis – 'Bitches Brew' and Herbie Hancock – 'Thrust', and with this EP I was looking back for the first time – so aesthetically it made complete sense to me.”

• The DJ: 

For North London DJ, VeeSWIZZLE, music is and has always been a constant source of inspiration, joy & creative expression, providing a ‘sound’ foundation to explore her many talents. 

And she’s something of a shapeshifter; when not mixing, she can be found leading a dance session; performing as a member of a steel band collective; posing for modelling shoots; attending drumming workshops; even doing indoor climbing.

Music has also provided VeeSWIZZLE with the glue to form strong friendships – owing to the diverse range of genres appealing to her eclectic taste. The music is HER and she becomes the music with a glowing smile that’s as endearing as the music she plays.

The spectrum of music influences ranges from Hip Hop to alt Jazz, neo classical and even prog Rock. 

Like her vibrant personality, VeeSWIZZLE’s brand of Hip Hop will touch the lives of many! 

And ever since Hip Hop classic, The Show by Doug E Fresh & Slick Rick, Hip Hop became her one TRUEST love!! 

And always will be…..
