Romaal Kultan - Personal Effects (STW Premiere)

Return to Space Ghost’s celebrated Dance Planet LP with six summer-ready remixes by @central8000, Dirk 81, @Jarrenc, @nelsonoftheeast and @space-ghost-1 himself, releasing June 10.

The Oakland-native’s romantic and empowering house sound has enjoyed a growing audience made up of fans and tastemakers alike. The remix package comes courtesy of friends and label affiliates, each lending their touch to Space Ghost’s work.

Capitalizing on the inherent warmth in the Bay Area-artist’s sound, Tartelet label head Dirk 81 subtly threads a slow, rolling breakbeat into ‘Deep’, channeling 90s RnB and Balearic.

Danish underground powerhouse and Help/Regelbau label affiliate Central injects some up-tempo garage house energy into ‘Be Yourself’ – without losing the swirling romanticism of the original. And LA-based producer Jarren, neighbor to Space Ghost on UK label Apron, leans in to the punchy Lately Bass and turns up the swing on his own version of the track.

Space Ghost comes back to ‘Emotional Healer’ and creates a pointedly club-tooled ‘Dance Mix’ version with a panoply of 90s touchstones delivered in the classiest of ways. To finish, Nelson Of The East’s ‘Forever Dub’ of the track adds a sharp and snappy strain of modern steppas.

Exclusive to the digital release, Space Ghost also offers up an ambient mix of ‘Emotional Healer’ for purely horizontal escapism, with his softly whispered mantras as your spirit guide through the aqueous pads. Nelson of the East closes the EP with trippy acid lines, dubbed out piano and off-kilter rhythms with his floor pleasing Acid Mix.

Releasing June 10, the vinyl comes in two versions; black standard and a limited-edition marbled pink/black.

Dance Planet Remixes

:: Space Ghost - Dance Planet Remixes - Tartelet Records 2022 ::

@moffandtarkin is back on Lagaffe Tales with a record that marks the 9th release in the Lagaffe series. The Austrian based Icelander provides two originals as well as a remix from label friend @uffeisaband.

The record starts off with Tension a break inspired banger with that special Moff & Tarkin twist. If you spot the sample let us know and you might win a coupon.

The second track "Socks By The Sofa" feels like something that would work wonders at your local bowling arena or even shopping mall, some piano samples and vocals, you know the drill.

The b side is dedicated to a massive Uffe remix, I tell you man, we had to write him back like 5 times and ask him to reduce that bass. Uffe takes Tension and turns it into a jungle journey a la Indiana Jones.

A1. Moff & Tarkin - Tension
A2. Moff & Tarkin - Socks By The Sofa

UK based DJ & Producer @darranp returns to @minornotes with his first full artist offering. Into The Light EP kicks things off with a jazz drenched deep house stuff. This release contains 4 original tracks from Darran + 2 remixes from russian producers SIL and Tsktch.

PREMIÈRE: Darran P - Skyline Blvd (Sil Remix)

Edition of 300 vinyl:
https://rickwade.bandcamp.com/album/late-right-ep

Detroit legend Rick Wade returns with his fourth Shall Not Fade release: a four track EP packed with timeless deep house.

On Late Right EP, Wade delivers the classic Detroit-sounding deep house with which his name is synonymous, at times experimenting with stylistic elements borrowed from tribal house, acid and ghettotech. The title track is a punchy deep house track with a funk-infused bassline and jazzy ambience which carries through to the next two tracks where it’s accompanied by the rattle of conga drums (‘Kabukicho’) and a gentle acid melody (‘Acid Creep’). Finally, ‘Quantum Jit’ brings things to a giddy close: a stripped-back club tune with skitterish claps and the syncopated breakbeat of drum and bass.

Late Right EP drops 26th August via Shall Not Fade.

Multi-dimensional future-jazz outfit JK GROUP release a new EP, Rising on La Sape Records. The brainchild of award-winning saxophonist, Joshua Kelly (30/70 collective, PBS Young Elder of Jazz 2019), the band returns to the label with a follow up EP to the mind-bending 2021 release, What’s Real? 

Where What’s Real? served as a platform for wild experimentation, Rising returns to a more considered and familiar format for the band, offering up 4 cohesive tracks that are deep in conception and expression, at once original and fresh. Conceived after recording an as yet unreleased body of work written whilst undergoing chemotherapy, Rising celebrates bandleader Josh’s survival and eventual recovery from the intense treatment he received for lymphoma in 2020. 

The band stays true to their honed format of jazz traditions melding with influences from electronica and beyond. Like the first release, The Young Ones, Rising sits comfortably in the crossover of raw, live jazz and electronic dance music,  whilst also throwing an unexpected curveball to the listener expanding the palate of the bands sound to a pigment never before heard in their music. The EP takes you on an emotional journey throughout the four tracks, best listened to start-to-finish.

PREMIERE: JK Group - Find Strength

Deeper Meaning 

New York City’s tape_hiss makes his debut on Darker Than Wax with A Linear Progression, a deep and meditative dance record born out of the pandemic’s paradigm shift. tape_hiss is an accomplished producer by any measure, with early releases on Love Notes from Brooklyn making his hardware-driven sound known worldwide, and a string of follow up releases on Axe on Wax, Just Jack, Lost Palms, and Echocentric Records solidifying his reputation as one of the deepest in the game. With A Linear Progression, the artist has approached his craft from new angles with stunning results.

While tape_hiss’s previous work had all found its genesis in a kitted-out studio, driven by melodies and chord progressions, the tracks making up A Linear Progression were all built around one tool - the MPC 1000. On weekend trips out of the city to visit family during 2020, the producer would bring only his MPC and put together these tunes, finding inspiration in its limitations and delving deep into 90s sampling techniques. After getting back to the studio, he would record what was created - sometimes nearly fully formed tracks, and other times core ideas to expand upon. The cumulation of this process was an entirely new take on the tape_hiss sound - dubby, euphoric, and exploring a wide range of tempos and beat patterns.

First single ‘W 4th Street (ACE) exemplifies this - a spacey roller thats not a club track, but would work equally well in that environment. Other standouts include ‘Energy Transfer’ with its heavily 90s-inspired electro-not-electro vibe, and the genreless ‘Heartbreaking’, constantly moving its momentum upward, yet remaining an introspective cut. More of a mixtape than a club 12”, A Linear Progression marks a step forward in the producer’s musical growth, and we are ecstatic to be here for it.
