[Premiere] Qant - Offset (out on Soigne Tes Oreilles)

Having collaborated on a regular basis since 2017, Korin Complex and Carter Wolfe have been continually exploring new ways to work with sound. While 2020 saw the release of their track ‘Ponder’ on the Winding River EP (Miracle Drug Recordings), we are excited to be putting out a brand new collaborative release from Korin Complex and Carter Wolfe on Off-Switch Audio. After many years refining their sound, ‘Airlock EP’ demonstrates a satisfyingly fun and hands-on approach to dance music. Capturing analogue synth jams and digitally building them into fully-fledged tracks together via the internet, the pair have creatively overcome barriers of lockdowns and long-distance to put together a heavy hitting combo of bass, beats and catchy synth-lines.
The EP begins with the title track Airlock. The track gradually morphs punching polyrhythmic percussion into melodies that gracefully rotate around the higher frequencies. This leaves the perfect amount of space for the slow, decaying reverberations to ring back-and-forth between the smooth pitch modulated bass in a complex chatter of sound.
Filament then uses a similar sonic palette, filling the space with thick textures and fast-paced rhythmic intricacies. This one re-contextualises nostalgic analogue synth tones with digital FX processing, placing you in a somewhat outer-worldly musical experience perfectly accompanied with aggressive low frequency energy; Filament is truly one for those lone entrancing moments on the dancefloor.
Next up, Korin Complex takes on a more playful approach with Busywork. Although this one is a solo production from Korin, Busywork retains much of the energy of the previous two tracks. Cut up vocal samples syncopate above a heavy four-to-the-floor kick pattern, alongside an accidentally generated synth lead and an overload of electronic drum kit hits.
Finally, long-time accomplice of the Off-Switch imprint Barom, puts a brand new spin on Airlock. Combining loopy electro style drums with elements from the original, and signature organic sound design switch ups of his own, Barom takes the title track to an exciting new territory; the perfect encore to complete OSD009.

James Young steps up for his first release on QRUK with the Nagasaki EP, a dark and driving UKG cut that leans into the moodier edges of Garage and Speedy G. The North Wales-based producer has already made waves with House releases on labels like Smashin Trax and Pogo House, but this new EP sees him pushing into heavier, more dancefloor-focused territory. Nagasaki is packed with chopped-up drums, eerie textures and a tough low-end that hits hard.

On remix duties is Kabo Cana, returning to the label after making a big impression with his debut I DON'T UNDERSTAND. His take on Nagasaki flips the original into a more club-ready, 90s inspired roller full of sub pressure and tight percussion. It's another strong showing from the Manchester-based producer who's quickly becoming an exciting name in the new wave of UKG.

SINAIS - What U Want (Head Down Mix)

More Cowbell established themselves in summer of 2019, rising through the scene as a Facebook community, pushing all things percussive and bass driven within the UK techno realm. With support from Keysound Recordings, Rinse FM and Keep Hush, the collective has made its mark as the catalyst for reigniting a fractured scene. With this success under their belt, 2020 see’s the launch of their label. The first instalment of their release roster reflects the label’s heavy influence from early 2000’s 2step, as well as the post-dubstep era that merged the sounds of dubstep and techno.

Manchester based producer, Monir, has delivered a three track EP which explores the realms of 130BPM, taking influence from the raw, UK sounds of early Wen and Pinch, whilst incorporating the shuffle of 2-Step drums respective of El-B and Ghost Recordings. The first track, entitled ‘Collusion’, sets the EP’s tone with low-swung bass pressure and layered subs. Whilst the second track, Overpass, pays homage to the early FWD>>> sound with heavy, bouncing 808’s built for the system. The EP finishes off with a track entitled ‘The Instinct’, connecting 2-step inspired drums to aggressive vocal chops that encapsulate UK sound system culture.

PREMIERE: PAS1 - Labyrinth [More Cowbell]

Break-ing into 2021 from Sweden via Manchester JERK002 comes from Bars of Beats co-owner Oblique with 4 tracks of Break influenced Techno.

As Another Entity opens up with menacing intent and slamming drums beckoning the end of rave as we know it, before A2 sends us falling down Futility Flight’s ‘Fuck Th’ twisted wormhole.
On the flip we have Mania, a break infused high tension builder, giving way to an all-consuming bassline and closing things off with Faulty, a sub bass lead heady groove that’s threatening to implode.
