From over the hills and far away, the cobblers and their boots are here to stay. The sartorial scallywags return with another collection of kaleidoscopic, Italo-tinged party pleasers. 

First off the block, London royalty Super Drama team up with homeboy Kayroy for ‘Something New’, a cut of propulsive glitterball synth-funk, with just the right amount of cowbell. 

An electrifyingly eclectic and adventurous collection of toe-tappers and hip-snappers, made with love and coming soon to a discoteca near you.

PREMIERE: A1 Kayroy - Something New (Ft. Super Drama)[BOOT004]

MOVE TRAX (@movetrax), label forged from Tokyo's event series MOVE ムーブ that since 2022 has consistently showcased in Asia pivotal figures in electronic music scene such as Alex Neri, Fantastic Man, Massimiliano Pagliara, Liquid Earth, Chloé Caillet, Bradley Zero, Secretsundaze, Giammarco Orsini, Gonno, Known Artist, proudly unveils its inaugural release: TOKYO LIPSTICK.

This sonic odyssey is crafted by the label's Italian-born, Tokyo-resident founder, Al Jones (@aljonesgroove), who masterfully synthesizes the sun-drenched euphoria of '90s Mediterranean sounds with the kaleidoscopic dynamism of his Japanese sojourn. From the futuristic synthscapes reminiscent of classic video games to the pulsating vocal tapestry of Shibuya Scramble Crossing, the world's most vibrant intersection, Al Jones distills disparate influences into a cohesive and compelling narrative. 

Supporting this seminal debut are remixes from Berlin-based UK artist Running Hot, renowned for his distinctive contributions to esteemed labels such as Love On The Rocks (LOTR), Certain Music Records, and Permanent Vacation. 

Complementing this, rising Japanese talent Paperkraft, hailing from Osaka, brings a fresh perspective, building significant momentum from the Land of the Rising Sun with releases on Physical Education and HOMAGE Records with his tracks remixed by Aldonna and Aiden Francis.

PREMIERE: Al Jones - Shibuya Better Move [MOVE TRAX - MTX01]

Tan Bo Mi

Gaze fixed firmly on the sky, she lay in the soft grass patiently waiting for the effects to take hold. Moving her fingers through the blades on either side of her, she noticed them dissipate and dissolve between her fingers, as if they were turning into grains of sand. Pulling herself up to sit, her focus moved to the trees around her, which had began to swirl and oscillate, bursting forth in kaleidoscopic shades of red, purple and orange. She got to her feet and gazed at the sky once again, letting the sun wash over her face. It was time to explore...

Following their inaugural release from musician and cinematographer Philip Perkins, Scottish reissue label chOOn!! look to the far east for their second, unearthing the sounds of Tokyo-based composer and producer Toshioki Matsumura. A Visual Brain brings together some of Matsumara's prime selections composed between 1986 - 1993 that showcase his exploration of early music technology, working with computers, synthesizers and samplers. This release gives us a window into his work with video-art collective Visual Brains, founded by Sei Kazama and Hatsune Ohtsu, the two friends and collaborators with whom he wrote scores and soundtracks for. The record is now commercially available for the first time via chOOn!! and Light In The Attic.

A Visual Brain: 1986-1993

PREMIERE: Toshioki Matsumura - Orange Alert [chOOn!!]

Kalim & Marim is an EP about music, no big story behind it except passion for sound textures and audio travelling...
Recorded in 2019 and 2020, it includes many instruments, from many loops of Kalimba & Marimba (That gave the name to the EP), to guitars, bass guitars, percussions of all types, clarinet by Walass, random samples and synthesizers.

Da Iguana: 
«Glassy and woody textures are emphasized, recalling waters and forests, my favorite environments. For the funny story Leu Grouve was recorded on Walass’s studio, in a houseboat on La Garonne river in Bordeaux, France, really close to the water surface, hearing droplets and seagulls while the sun was setting. A magical moment we spent jamming with anything we could use in the small studio!! It’s also one of my first works going up in BPM throughout the track (from 85-86 to 100BPM).
Ambiantik is obviously an ambient track, cosy and organically textured, mixing ancient instruments from different parts of the world (ambient + antique).
Moa Tren will take you on an intercontinental aerial train, with mouth blown percussions and cloudy atmospheres.
At last Kalim & Marim is a swingy tune, super innocent, with a happy mood I am not so used too.»

The release incl two remixes from our beloved friends who added their recognizable sound — Ohxalá made Leu Grouve even more groove and dance, and MAUGLI give a deep slowly instrumental version of the Moa Tren.

嘘みたいなことがまかり通る世の中
アッチの世界で勝手にやって ツケを払うのは僕たち
あ〜やってらんねぇ

奴隷にされた僕の友達 疲れ果て考えない
生き血を吸い上げる 壊れたら使い捨てる
あ〜やってらんねぇ

強迫観念でコントロール
欲の油で顔はピカピカ
賢い女はお断り
あ〜やってらんねぇ

(English Translation)
We live in a world of lies.
They do what they want in other world 
and we are the ones to pay the price

Oh, I can't do this

My friend, enslaved
She's exhausted, she can't think
They suck our blood, and when we are broken, they throw us away

No, I can't do this

They control with the obsession of fear
The oil of greed makes their faces shine&shine
Smart women are off-limits

No no, I can't do this anymore,,

Last august Yu Su was temporarily residing in LA for a short time whilst on a sort of extended tour/sorting out visa combo adventure. Whilst in town we managed to write a bunch of music together (keep your eyes peeled for SCR015) and even stop by the Dublab studios for a little B2B. Well, almost a year and a half later… those tracks are about to finally see the day of light. So to truly execute this charming tableau, we got together again (virtually this time) on the same radio station for another 2 hours of fun.
