Dusky’s return to Running Back. 
The second volume of Life Signs continues where its parent left us: on the path to euphoria. 
A brew of rumbling bass lines, ecstatic dreams, rattling rave signals and moving melodies that is as sapid as it is substantial. Consisting of four tracks (and one dub), Dusky further cement their reputation of being champions of their (production) craft and the dance floor alike. While „Fridge“, „Seed Tray“ and „Mushroom Samba“ lower the plough with DJs and steppers in mind, „Metropolis“ ennobles itself to a higher stand: with or without voice, it is a sophisticated and divinely inspired master class in a perfect hook (bleeps) and eye (bass). And a gentle reminder: function and beauty don’t have to exclude each other.

Dampé - Shadwell EP - Dirt Crew Recordings

Buy and Listen : https://ffm.to/dirt126
https://soundcloud.com/dampedampe

Track list:
1 Chak Wak
2 SE1 Bossa Nova 
3 Shadwell

Release : 14.08.2020

Release Info:
This summer Dampé returns to Dirt Crew with the three track Shadwell EP as part of our special digital only release series. 2020 has already been strong with the producer holding down a monthly residency at Rinse FM and dropping a deep garage cut with MC Mushkilla on London’s WotNot records.

The Shadwell EP displays sounds for the club and headphone listener alike. Chak Wak is a percussive club track which sees chunky rhythms, an acid baseline and Rhodes licks bounce about before giving way to a distinctive lead line.

SE1 Bossa Nova is a playful CR-78 and guitar jam and an ode to a London postcode and the sunshine. Echos of UK dance styles are never too far away on a Dampé production. On the title track we hear a UKG shuffle over a weighty bass line deliver a couple heads down drops. Mid way through the tune cascading, ravey arps appear to create a moment which should have a listener longing for Lockdown to end and a dark 4am dance floor.

Release : 11.09.2020

Release Info:
The third release in our special digital summer series is the debut of an exciting artist from The Netherlands. “A Bunch of Guys” is the new alias of Utrecht based dj/producer Rob Scholtens, formerly known from “Pablo Discobar Soundsystem”. After 5 years as one half of the Dutch DJ duo, playing a lot of shows all across NL, he’s now working on his solo career with renewed energy.

The opener “Filthy Rhodes” is a pumping house track that will surely make you move! With it’s old school piano house chords and melody this one is made for pure good times. Followed by “Let the Rhythm Hit’em” where It’s all about, you guessed it, the rhythm. The combination of smooth jazzy drums, piano and the double bass, played live by Rob, will surely move your feet and keep you dancin’. Last of the originals is “Launch VII” a deep journey with Detroit flavors build around a rocket launch sample and gently driving you deeper into electronic atmospheres and towards a funky keys solo.

As the perfect topping to this great well crafted debut EP we asked our good friends and all time fave Dutch producers “Fouk” to produce a big remix of “Let the Rhythm Hit’em”. They boost the original to a raw and rolling Chicago-esque House banger. With their solid and chunky production this one is a big encore to close the EP.

DJ FzN - Siento Enloquecer (Original Mix)

This is the second part of the Modern House Quintet’s debut album, this time featuring their work under the Cyclades alias. A collection of dreamlike House and Electronica, sometimes ambient and sometimes more urgent. This second LP is distinct from the first in the sounds explored - but connected somewhat in the sheer variation and exploration of instruments.

Dan Only - Deciduous Dubs EP - Dirt Crew Recordings

Out: 23.10.2020
Buy and Listen : https://ffm.to/dirt128
https://soundcloud.com/danonly

Track list:
1 Gateway Shuffle 
2 Terraforming
3 It’s Inside You
4 Macrodose

Release Info:
Dan Only returns for his third release on Dirt Crew Recordings with his Deciduous Dubs EP. This release sees the Toronto-native continuing his journey into new musical territories, leaving behind the past and rebuilding his framework from scratch. Armed with Akai Samplers, 90s Romplers and some tried and true Roland classics, this release explores sounds that were informed by Dubstep, Hardcore, House and Techno.

The release opens with “Gateway Shuffle”. The half-time drums and breakbeats link it back to early dubstep and reinforce the ghostly harmonies that glide throughout. Warping basses, deep subs and distant voices welcome you into the sonic world of this release.

“Terraforming” gives you hope in the unknown. The digital pads wash in as the meandering melodies invite you in to take a leap of faith out into the open. A deep sub forms among the all familiar four-on-the-floor kick patterns, providing the foundation needed to lose yourself in groove. By the end, you’re dancing across new ground in a trance-like state.

“It’s Inside You” gets to the root of it all. Stripped back and ever-evolving, the bouncing bass line and shapeshifting landscape contorts around you as this techno groover pummels forward. This one is heady and contemplative and all about self-discovery on the dance floor.

We end our trip with “Macrodose”. Diving through twisting basses and breakbeat science, you’re taken deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole, much farther than you anticipated. There’s a stark contrast between the reality you once knew and the one you are now in. If you can push through the peak you’ll be welcomed by a euphoric afterglow and strong sense of clarity.

In June of 2020 Recut gave us ‘Reload Disco’ on his fledgling imprint Recut Music. His four-track wonky disco winner pricked the ears of many. All the heads were in, Jimpster, Luke Solomon, Oliver Dollar, DJ Rocca, Horse Meat Disco, Bill Brewster Justin Robertson, Fred Everything and Marcel Vogel, which culminated in a super speedy sell through of the vinyl.

Recut has been making beats since the ‘90s, preferring to keep his established name and past releases out of the limelight. He pushes out again on his vinyl only, Recut Music label with their second offering entitled ‘Dub Zero’. This EP is a four cut DJ tool that kicks!

Opening with ‘Runway’ and its lo-slung funky groove, that you just want to hear on a very loud speaker. ‘Mothership’ picks up the bpm and moves more into acid house terrain with its driving and repetitive machine beats. Title track ‘Dub Zero’ goes tribal and you can hear this kicking off a treat on Balearic house dancefloors. The EP closes out with ‘Dubmention’. It’s hi hats leading the charge, until the kick comes in and drives it all the way through this six and half minute, glam-rock stomping dancefloor pleaser.

PREMIERE: Recut - Dubmention [Recut Music]

Hot on the heels of his latest album 'World Is Too Loud' in the spring, and the recent Transit single, Third Attempt returns with a collaboration project with fellow Tromsø-based DJ and producer LP Martin, previously heard on the likes of Paper Disco, Full Pupp and Beatservice Records.
Percolating a swing-savvy mix of infectious slap bass, gnarly Rhodes and sun-bleached Balearic atmospheres, the duo's debut joint effort 'Muggost', features the whole palette of their funky sound grammar as it meshes together facets of jazz, ambient, house and, quite obviously, a quintessential dose of spaced-out disco, through one helluva brightly hued mosaic of textures and colours. 
The title-track 'Muggost' gets the ball rolling on a deft, hip-swaying note with its old-school Chicagoan shuffle, jacuzzi-warm riffs and ankle-snapping breaks. Tailored Ibizean guitar motifs smoothly and joyfully clash against rippling tides of piano and hazed-out bass moves. On 'Byen', smokey cotton club-like atmospheric tropes rapidly make way for a sensual melange of brittle strings and elastic bounce, all laced in the dreamiest of scenarios, sure to have you zoning out to a land of carefree sun-basking and lascivious idleness.
Getting the triple remix treatment, the flagship cut is turned into a proper club workout courtesy of rising Norwegian talent Blue Charm - bringing forth the jacking bravura of the track and optimising its DJ-friendly, rhythmic appeal. LP Martin then mucks in with his 'Apple' revisit; a lax dub variation under strong trip-hop influence and making generous use of the tape-echo to throw us headlong into a world of sedated quiet. Last but not least, Third Attempt throws us back in the heyday of DJ Shadow and instrumental hip-hop classics a la 'Building Steam...' - merging the vaporous beauty of textured synth tapestries with a steely, hard-as-nails drum programming of the finest standard.
