Four years since her last dancefloor 12", @upsammy returns to Dekmantel with a four-track exploration of gleaming, sprightly drum and bass with a restorative centre. Thessa Torsing's moves in upper tempo zones have been defined by her light touch, finding power and presence in finely chiseled sounds and sculpting space between intricate, interwoven rhythms.

The dynamic movement of her pristinely moulded percussion is absolutely geared up for the club, but it's also matched with an uplifting, meditative sound palette which tempers the busy energy of the drums. Pushing and pulling on her arrangements with ever-increasing expressiveness and revelling in the subtlest of modulations to her kinetic beat systems, upsammy proves once again that moving in time to fast music can be an incredibly restorative experience.

@clubdesignslabel
@minorsineproject
Bandcamp: https://clubdesigns.bandcamp.com/album/cdmusic012
Release Date: April 25th, 2025
Info: Vancouver/Paris -based imprint Club Designs is back with its biggest compilation to date.

CDMUSIC012, the latest in the label's ongoing series of electro inspired VAs, boasts an eclectic mix of producers from across the globe, paying their respect to the classic Detroit genre.

The compilation features music from Vancouver heroes Greazus, French DMC champion Saligo, Berlin’s Insomniast, and label alumni Shanx, alongside label co-founders Sharkki, who teams up with hot French producer Body Hook, and Garneau who brings a deeper cut to the pack.

Tokyo newcomer Kanse keeps it old school, while Aleister and Minor Sine Project bring the modern productions into play. Sonically, the release traverses the full scope of the imprint's sound, with streamlined percussive club tracks, bass-heavy workouts, and leftfield electro explorations that nod to both UK club culture and North America's undergrounds.

Club Designs has been steadily building a reputation as a stronghold of gritty and raw dance music, and CDMUSIC012 sounds like both a rallying cry and a celebration of the collective energy that powers the label.

Toupaz returns to Control Freak with a 4 track EP of intricate club weapons.

‘Unwind & Dissolve Gently’ showcases the Graz-based artist’s distinctive production flair - one which has developed in style and sophistication since his last outing on CF in 2022 as Awo Ojiji with subsequent releases via Well Street, Grid and Danielle’s Soft Raw imprint.

This collection draws heavy influence from the rich history of the UK scene - from the dubstep-leaning lurch of ‘Ramshackle’ to the introspective electronica of closing track ‘Whats The Mass of Memory?’

Balancing a delicate and subtle sense of melody and restraint with blunt force moments of controlled aggression, Toupaz’s precision sound engineering is guaranteed to send any discerning dancefloor into a frenzy - perfect for those explosive mid-set left turns.

PREMIERE: Toupaz - Routine

Bass music alchimist RAVL delivers 4 intense tracks for his premiere EP on Blue Night Jungle. Both tribal and electric, Vestiges easily blends up dark atmospheres with brilliant pads and synths, combining forces to create a powerful near DnB style with a hard sense of groove. He also invites the Welsh master producer Aloka for an hybridstep track that will clearly shake all the dancefloors it will be put on.

PREMIERE⚡️RAVL - Vestiges [Blue Night Jungle]

"Plastic Future" is a sonic exploration of our shared, contrary life experience through representing and showcasing the uneasy, joyous dichotomies of our plastic era. We exist during humanity's most successful epoch, yet live in constant fear of catastrophe. The world is shimmering plastic and we revel in its glory.

The first track in the mix is the self-produced work "Plastic People," which distills these themes through combining early Detroit-style vocals written and performed by Noti, 2010s dubstep bass representing an evolution in sound design (shout out to South London's legendary Plastic People club), and digital-era synth stabs that evoke our current online age of nostalgia and confusion. The lyrics both critique and celebrate our hypernormal reality - a beautiful, fragile creation that may be collapsing even as we dance in its glow.

The mix is to be taken as the sonic palette for the project. It moves from the sci-fi optimism of 90s electro through to the sickly clinical perfection of contemporary Ostgut Ton techno, with many more moods and influences representing and contrasting both our plastic reality and the dreams that built it.

Through melodic euphoria vs. melancholic dissonance, analog warmth vs. digital sterility - this work becomes a metaphor for our collective condition: thriving within suffocation, finding joy in the synthetic, and dancing on the edge of oblivion. It's neither pure celebration nor condemnation, but a resonant vibration of our unstable now.
