Kouslin returns to Livity Sound with a second collection of slippery club tracks after the 2020 Vision E.P. With an emphasis on head-twisting sound design and a detailed line in percussive programming, the London-based producer continues to reach into intriguing new areas without forsaking soundsystem-ready physicality.

The tracks which make up the Patterns E.P. stemmed from a period of personal experimentation, where Kouslin returned to making music for its therapeutic benefits rather than a fixed purpose. The loops and sketches he returned to and expanded upon for this EP bristle with originality at every turn.

There is a continued exploration of dancehall rhythms on ‘King’, while ‘Five Four’ toys with time signatures for a jagged, fast-paced abstraction of techno. ‘Why Don’t You Don’t’ is harder to pin down thanks to its knotty beat and mutant synthesis, and ‘Michael’ flips the script further with an unexpected swerve into pearlescent melodic lead lines – the perfect demonstration of the honest and instinctive approach Kouslin took when making these tracks.

Wyatt Stevens is at the forefront of a young Brooklyn scene that's taking the dance music world by storm. Alongside friends and collaborators such as AceMo, Kush Jones, and DJ Swisha, he's created a genre-agnostic movement that celebrates all facets of black electronic music, from old-school Detroit techno to the early days of jungle, drum & bass, and more modern strains of American dance music. His HAUS OF ALTR label has become a hub for this community, releasing his own material as well as his critically acclaimed AceMoMA project with AceMo and three massive compilations that define this new generation of producers. MoMA Ready makes dance music intuitively and without orthodoxy, where techno can suddenly morph into drum and bass and back again.

We are buzzed to share something we have been sitting on for a minute; Room Service 002.  This next release comes from the powerful, high energy, tore de force Taiwanese American producer, DJ, musician, and interdisciplinary artist, JIALING/BIG J (@pbnstrawberryjam)

‘LOST TRAX 2K22’ follows JIALING’s debut album 家 (jiã) and defines her sound; punchy drums, percussion-filled breakdowns, emotive strings and searching harmonies. 

The EP opens with ‘Angels’, an off-kilter wobbly 140 techno/breaks track, combining vocal stabs and halftime breakdowns, captivates and nods to raves of past and future sounds of techno. ‘Solace’ is another hugely inventive sound, with multiple drum patterns and rickety rhythms that erupt with a piano hook to take you into another dimension. The brilliant 'Let Go' melts the heart with rolling drums, sustained synths and emotive cosmic leads, a real let-go moment. The EP is capped off with a remix by label head Gallegos, infusing the original spark of 'Let Go' with a soothing downtempo vibe, characteristic of his hypnotic style.
