Artist: Other Lands
Title: What Year Is It? Who's The President?
Label: PULP
Format : Vinyl 12’’
Release Date: April 23rd
Style: Deep House, Downtempo, House

Scottish producer Gavin Sutherland revives his Other Lands alias with a collection of tracks
that were crafted between 1997 and 2012, and were transferred straight from the original cassette.

‘’ What Year Is It? Who's The President? ’’, is Sutherlands’ first full offering with PULP. After multiple remixes for the label (under his Fudge Fingas alias), the release schedule for the Other Lands guise has picked up in the last few months. This resurgence of previously unreleased material will add to Sutherland’s elaborate catalog, and confirm that even bits that never saw a release at the time, are sounding relevant and superbly produced.

PULP13 starts with ‘’ The Caged Bird ’’, which is a synth laden, lush sounding cut that is built around a playful bass sound and beautifully orchestrated chords. The drums are swinging as ever, and the hypnotic character of the lead is present throughout. “ Kaleidoscope ’’ is a venture into the otherworldly. Deep splashes of synth and fx come together effortlessly to create an almost meditative state. The musicality of it all is remarkable, and hard to capture in a few words. The rhythm section is always the backbone, but the fx are equally as important. Fans of Sutherland’s work will surely recognize and appreciate the ambiance that is set in Kaleidoscope.

The flipside starts with ‘’ It’s Something Else ’’. The main lead is indeed something refreshing. In a sense, it’s reminiscent of a guitar, but it’s clearly not that. The dance floor nature of everything else is supporting the wildness of the lead. Altogether this is something to space out to. On a dance floor, at home or perhaps even during a run.

The final track on the b side is called ‘’ Mind Like A Steel Trap ’’. This sample heavy, hazy sounding piece of beauty is blending soulful flutes, drums and the catchphrase of the song - no more mind games - together with an astonishing ease.

MIMS is extremely excited to premiere the futuristic broken beat sounds of “Sweat”, by Contours & Werkha, their very first song together and the first taste of a collection of fresh collaborations curated by ANMA and Cognitiva Records.

"Sweat" sees the multi-talented Contours, following two acclaimed & sold out releases on ANMA, trading beats and synths with friend-since-childhood, Werkha, a producer who manages to turn all styles to his will, from broken beat to jazz and soul.

As Contours puts it "We had a framework for this track for a while, but both wanted to revisit it and ended up flipping the vibe into a more angular acid-tinged broken beat piece. Werkha brought a killer sound to the drum programming with chopped live kit samples."

Cognitiva and ANMA Records label bosses Piero Paolinelli (SofaTalk) and Angelo Mazzone (FootNote), have put together an absolute beast of a compilation. ‘Outlines’ is a snapshot of a new generation of exciting producers from across Europe, collaborating and mixing jazz, broken beat & house in exciting new ways.

10 tracks split into two parts on vinyl, featuring ones-to-watch Contours, Werkha, Footshooter, Allysha Joy, Karmasound, 291out and Domenico Sanna. ANMA and Cognitiva have not only curated the featured artists but have also instigated many of the collaborations featured.

You can also catch Werkha and Contours making their live debut as a duo this Friday as part of We Out Here's digital showcase. 

"Sweat" will be available to download on Bandcamp, and stream from all your favourite places, this Friday March 5. The 'Outlines' compilation can be pre-ordered now from the stores on the link above, and from Bandcamp this Friday, coinciding with their monthly fee-waiving day.
