SPRINTER (POCKET EDIT)

Geode - Deep Space

From the depths of Subchaser, to the heights of Venus, Truth's 'Temple of Eyes' EP explores another chapter of otherworldly sound.

As the first label to ever release Truth, it's always nice to unite for another record: 14 years, eight releases, let's go.

Product Toss joins the NHS for 'Plug Gulp,' a 4-track walk through the springy, sonically-gouged production style that the Newcastle-based artist has offered to the electronica world over the past few years. Disparate in BPM, structure, and inspiration, drawing idiosyncratically from Dubstep, UK Bass, and UK Funky, the vibe is profoundly dynamic and versatile in its engineering. Occupied with mid-frequency hums and inflections, bouncing against tight, syncopated percussion made seemingly from hollowed-out origins.

The journey across the collection follows the progression of mood and atmosphere akin to leftfield club music nightlife, with the artist drawing inspiration from their own experiences across many moments found only after dark. A desire to capture the evolution of such tracks' natural habitat is what informed Product Toss throughout their conception, and the 4 tracks nestle comfortably into this space - functional, DJ-ready tracks destined to influence movement.

'Bile' enters with a swung force characterized by pushing sub pulses, sparse drum patterings, and dripping, fluttery notes, both organic and inorganic in nature. Sensuous and dubby, the piece maintains a healthy homeostasis, shifting subtly with a droning layer of low-end that feels wholly reminiscent of Master Chief's shield recharging. Perhaps appropriate given the track is a weapon.

Faux Poly welcomes more newcomers to the label this summer, this time with a heady collaboration between Vancouver’s underground mainstay Max Ulis and Bristol-based Nina (aka 1/2 of DE-TÜ), featuring a bonus track with Adam 2.

Their EP Mythra was born out of opportunistic collaboration in Vancouver, while Nina was in town for a show. 

Finishing off the EP is the stellar dubstep curveball Testify, a collaboration between Max & Adam 2 using the unique Soma Enner synth alongside vocals from Nina.

Hassan Abou Alam is next to step up to the unconventional Nerve Collect label with six tracks of futuristic club-ready chaos. The finely crafted EP arrives in August and comes on 12" vinyl and via all digital platforms.

Hassan Abou Alam has established himself as one of Egypt's most innovative underground musicians over the last 10+ years. His music is a meeting of disparate worlds - organic and synthetic designs, digital and analogue tools, the traditional and the futuristic, and it has come on the likes of YUKU, Rhythm Section, Banoffee Pies and Casa Voyager. His versatile sound pulls apart existing genres and reconstructs them as something entirely new.

Opener '3asabi' is a stylish sonic assault with thumping rhythms and trippy oscillations that will get any dance floor bouncing. It's fun yet functional, serious yet seductive.

Hassan Abou Alam's blurring of the lines between the real and the imagined is second to none on this EP. It's a sub-heavy mix of the human voice, machine-made sounds and inventive rhythms that make for something new, weird and wonderful.

Vancouver’s Destrata returns to Scuffed Recordings with three new tracks on his Keepsake EP, backed by a remix from SUCHI.

Originally appearing on London-based label Scuffed in 2023 with his Mutationist EP, Destrata picked up support from the likes of Leon Vynehall, rRoxymore, and Anz among others. Having also released with a ‘who’s who’ of electronic labels in his short career including 3024, SPE:C, and Of Paradise, Destrata was also named an artist to watch in 2024 by Mixmag.

Now returning with his Keepsake EP, Destrata describes his latest work as being altogether more melodic than his previous releases, while keeping drum work front and centre - or as he puts it, “My bass music friends think I make techno & my techno friends think I make bass music.”

Destrata’s melodically-focussed outlook is obvious from the outset, with lofty synths and vocal chops contrasting warping bass and skippy percussion across the EP’s three tracks.
