BSC004: Polaris EP (OUT NOW)

BSC002’s debut EP from 9TRANE came shattering through with an installment of hard, stripped back UK Techno and Bass with great response from the community. Basilica now moves deeper and darker into the realms of heavy and complex percussion based dance music, with this installment, BSC003. Coming from Australia, Basilica’s newest family member - Lithe.

Lithe is quickly rising the ranks with a signature style combining complex hardware percussion rhythms creating rolling and sharp grooves layered with dark techno ambiences and spaces.
The Not a Pessimist EP is a journey of intensity, rise and fall and journey. The pace of each track is set from the get go yet as each piece progresses you find your body moving, changing and rising and falling with each subtle element added and taken away so smoothly it hits you on a subconscious level.

Lithe’s sharp and relentless percussion work engulfs you with push and pull, energy, space and power and, in turn, transforms the listener by hypnotically grooving through the flawless percussion, combinations and strength.

Lithe's work has gained attention and support from labels such as Early Reflex, Flood and Enhancer. Expect to see much more of Lithe both in Australia and worldwide.

Sharp, pounding percussion, with layer upon layer adding more vibe, more groove and more rhythm into this web of heavy driven sound. Drawing for a mixture of sonic textures from dancehall grooves and hardstyle synths this unrelenting blend of drums and atmospherics fully entrances you in a mesmerising plane of sonics. This is definitely one to lose yourself in at 3am.

Not A Pessimist

PREMIERE: Lithe - Not A Pessimist [Basilica Nights]

Polaris

Kahter - Polaris EP SHOWREEL

A core part of the Control Freak Recordings family, London based artist Keplrr has built a reputation as a deft & talented producer with unparalleled attention to detail. In the wake of the widespread support for his 2020 EP ‘Reconstructed Club’, we asked four producers we have long-admired to flip a track from the original release. The result is ‘Club Reconstructed’ - a collection of remixes which distill the spirit of Keplrr’s original record into new forms.

Syz makes his return to the label after 2019’s highly acclaimed Bunzunkunzun EP, applying his organic touch to Esoteric Functions with a ‘refunction’, which blurs the line between techno and 140 - packing some serious low-end and a cheeky mid-way switch-up to send the dance wild.

Club Reconstructed

PREMIERE: Keplrr - Esoteric Functions (Syz Refunction) [Control Freak]

The words 'No Entry' always seemed to have the adverse effect. For as long as they'd inhabited this space, those words had been emblazoned over the cellar. No one dared ask what lay beyond the padlocked door, though they'd come close on several occasions, but they couldn't quite get the words out. Some said they'd heard muffled screams coming from beneath the floorboards, others swore they'd seen people come and go in the dead of night, but these were all rumours... What really happened down in the basement nobody knew. 

Kahter returns to Basilica for his first solo release since contributing a track to the label's inaugural VA compilation a few years back. With EPs under his belt on Circular Jaw, Manuka and Swamp 81, Kahter now takes care of Basilica's fourth release, building on his exploration into heavy bass frequencies. Over the four tracks on Polaris, he shares the more hard-hitting side of his production, which also includes a collaboration with Infinite Machine producer Yilan that matches polyrhythmic drums with crisp percussion and driving subs.

PREMIERE: Kahter & Yilan - Rugs [Basilica]

The Polaris EP explores the heavier sound of Kahter's productions. Tell Me has spacious, rolling percussion with a slamming kick and deep bass.

OS Premiere: Kahter - Tell Me [Basilica]

Phrixus returns with the next instalment of Random Beats & Pieces, a series of hard drive extraditions manifested as self releases.

Effortlessly sliding between fragments of bmore, footwork, sci-fi film music, noise and IDM, the EP showcases the wildly rich tapestry of influences and sounds the London-based beat maker and sound designer is known for.

'Bmore>STAND UP!’ hits hard with an arrangement aimed squarely at the dance floor. A brutal brass line dominates the opening, with influences clearly discerned from Rod Lee and DJ Technic’s Bmore club productions, before the tune’s effortlessly simplistic and wickedly effective main focus pulls in.

PREMIERE: Phrixus - BMORE...>STAND UP!

Basilica’s fourth submission comes courtesy of one it’s earliest roster holders, the newest sculptor of the both historic and ever changing ‘Bristol Bass’ sound - Kahter.

Kahters sound has always been a juxtaposition between spacious subtlety combined and contrasted with huge drum presence and swollen bass. Making his early debuts on labels such as Glome Sound, Manuka, Circular Jaw and, most recently, his enormous Swamp 81 debut release, Kahter has consistently released club based beats that cut through a mix with laser precision. 

The Polaris EP explores the heavier hitting side of Kahters production, with huge and heavy impacting basses and kicks, a barrage of razor sharp hats and lasers brought together under a rolling bop of distant and textured ambiences and pads.
