Name: Deep88 - Psychopolitics by deep88
Duration: 6 min 17 s
Description: https://deep88.bandcamp.com/track/psychopolitics

Private Joy?! With a namesake derived from the mighty Prince’s catalogue, and its lustful connotations, Private Joy is the producer of soul band Lovescene and a supreme vocalist of the Manchester scene. With collaborations working with the likes of Ruf Dug, Finn, and Lenzman, a solo EP was inevitable and a statement this is.

Pops Roberts’ first solo EP debuts on Rhythm Section INTL bringing together influences from Streetsoul, 80s ‘babymaker’ RnB records and a slice of 00s soulful house in there for good measure. In just over 18 minutes, Private Joy welcomes you into her world of sensuality and soulful warmth. Musical hugs galore, the production balances synths, harps, saxophones, tight beats and meaningful lyrical content; eschewing millennial whoops for Sade indebted dulcet tones.

Each track draws from personal experience; be it heartbreak or reconnection, an emotional diary conveying the trials and tribulations of love, loss and ultimately, desire.

Opening with ‘Eyes on You’, reeling you in slowly with a Joe Sample style intro, Pops’ undoubtedly sultry voice hits the hairs on the back of your neck, underpinned by 5 stringed bass guitar which features across the EP, giving every track deep harmonic roots. ‘Love Find A Way’ conjures the best of Osunlade’s discography, combining harp from Ada Francis, percussive loops, smooth strings, finishing the A side on soulful house tip.

The B side kicks off with ‘Playful’, a downbeat soul jam with an “swaying afrobeats influence”, to reflect Private Joy’s intention: “ An ode to appreciating the enjoyment of a friendship that is drenched in attraction that needs to be respected and taken slowly”. “Pure Love” jumps straight in with that elusive streetsoul vibe, when you hear it, you just know the volume needs to increase. Fellow Mancunian Meduulla jumps on the mic for the final verse, ironing in the tribute to the late 90s ‘upfront’ underground RnB sound made timeless by artists such as Zhané, Mary J Blige and Brandy. Closing the EP is title track ‘Desire!’, a modern ballad featuring Ophelia Buxton backing the layered vocals with trumpet licks. Jazzy rhodes and synth pad swells fill the void behind the natural yet electronic drums, a tapestry of passion led by Anita Baker chic vocals.

“Desire has been the drive and beginning of so many decisions, highs and lows in life…” - Private Joy

Music Of The U EP
Label - Tunes Delivery
Released - 12th May 2025
Format - Vinyl

Scruniversal's sub label Tunes Delivery invites Moscow scene veteran Leonid Lipelis to don his Beard In Dust moniker for their third instalment, one which dips into various different eras of dance history for inspiration. There's a distinctly late 80s feel to opening tune 'Music of the U', complete with sampled bell stabs and the kind of beats that wouldn't be out of place on an S'Express or early Coldcut house affair. 'The Armenian Break' and 'City of Love' look back even further, back to the female-fronted disco efforts of the 70s, the latter adding a touch of Balearic flourishes. 'Abstractish P' circles around some serene arpeggios, with rave whistles and, as it progresses, twisting guitar notes, lending it an individual air, while closer 'RoRyaRe' nods to ExCel-era 808 State with some nice bleepery before settling into more progressive headnodding territory and some distinctive synth play.

After Eloi’s memorable debut on LTDBLBL009 and the follow-up journey of LTDBLBL013, Eloi returns to Limited White Label with his third and most mature release yet.

If LTDBLBL009 was your imagined late-summer teen romance, LTDBLBL018 is the bittersweet memory of it—years later, playing in the background of a slow, golden-hour evening. Eloi channels the soul of the early 2010s through his signature blend of warm vintage synths, dusty drum machines, and emotionally charged melodies. It's laid-back, sophisticated, and deeply sentimental—an album like a finely aged bottle of wine, best enjoyed in one sitting, with no rush and all heart.

Premiere | Eloi - Music Is My Sanctuary (LTDBLBL018)

Classonix are back with another red-hot delivery of smart edits designed for maximum club impact. 'Lilith' marries deep house beats and dreamy roads with exotic international vocals that lend it plenty of spice. 'Coute' is a UK street soul and Afro disco collision with 80s pads that shine bright. 'Hala Hala' is another international delight with summer-ready vocals and an old-school bassline that never quits. 'Shabakni El Hawa' classes out with candied disco-pop and hypnotic vocals over some fresh synth work. A colourful package of sure-fire winners.

Classonix - International Edits [TUNESDWAX005]

15 Years, All Ears, All Heart. Fifteen years ago there wasn’t a grand plan, no vision board or 10-year strategy. It wasn’t about fame and acclaim, it has always been about feelings and encounters. Meeting people who made music, loved music, were music. Fast forward a bit and the family just kept expanding. It wasn’t just producers and DJs anymore, designers, writers, random hype people, "vinyl faced" ones... Everyone brought something different to the table and somehow, through our filter, it took us here. House, Jazz, Techno, Experimental, it didn’t matter. The only rule was that the music had to feel alive, with a Jazzy twist, where “Jazzy” means a propensity to improvisation, not just music. This is not a story about numbers or streams. It’s about people and places. Every track has a face behind it: the producer who turned a three-note loop into gold, the designer who nailed an album cover in one chaotic night, the heads who spun the story for the release and the friends who supported and listened. That is the soul of Apparel Music and that’s why the cover for this "B-Day15" isn’t gleaming or shiny, it’s real. It’s a celebration of encounters. The messy, magical moments when people connect and make something bigger than themselves. It’s a big THANK YOU to all the characters who hopped on this ride. This record, dropping in both vinyl and digital formats and featuring artists from all over the world, is the symbol of the Apparel Music essence. From the USA with Osunlade to Australia with Erin Buku & Inkswel; from Denmark with Ghosten (featuring Francesca Touré and IZZY NU) to Italy with 2KS and Kisk; Argentina and Brazil with Eduardo and HNQO (with Collateral Lab), Spain with Tuccillo, Germany and The Netherlands with Marcel Vogel & LYMA. It's about exploring genres, diving into far-off worlds, being curious about other places, other people and figuring out how to make them all feel comfy under the same roof, chilling in the same room. A room we've been furnishing for a while with our little treasures, some fancy furniture, some not-so-fancy, but always with passion. There’s more music to make, more stories to discover, more people to meet. Apparel Music is not just a label anymore, it’s a big, instinctive, unplanned love letter to everyone who’s been and who’ll be a part of it. 15 Years, All Ears, All Heart.
