Whilst club events and music festivals around the world may have come to a halt, there’s no stopping the undeniable Haŵs party taking place inside this hefty slice of wax. The Haŵs crew once again come correct with their 11th release, and the 3rd edition of their V/A volumes. Their dominant streak waxes anew with zero sign of waning, as they unleash 4 original pearlers into the outside world. Names all too familiar in the scenes they inhabit, Rudolf C, Lisene, DJ Life and Nathan Pinder combine their comprehensive skillsets for your unending pleasure.

Opening celebrations is Rudolf C’s ‘Shotta’, the type of head-nodder, dancefloor fodder that has long been associated with his name. Alien signal-like stabs persist and combine with the crunchy percussion throughout, tripping back and forth in its otherworldly paradigm.

PREMIERE: Rudolf C - Shotta

Exclusive: Juan MacLean - Skies Open

New Yorker Juan MacLean contributes his track Skies Open to Hard Fist's second installment of their La Dansa compilation. Known and appreciated for releases on label's like Will Saul's Aus Music or Jennifer Cardini's Correspondant and DFA, of course, Juan MacLean musically travels to France to celebrate his first appearance on the French imprint that hits floors like a fist in your face – hard. Skies Open is a driving (dark) disco-esque, partly cosmic and 8-bit freaky track that can be split into two parts. While at first Juan MacLean concentrates on a montonious almost didgeridoo-like repeating chord that is combined with glitchy and wobbling bleeps the track is added a way more blissful note in the second part that kind of seems like a salvation as the listener was heavily involved with the darker and freakier vibe in the beginning. However, it's this contrast that is intriguing, as if the 'sky opens up' to make one see the blue again as it pushes the grey from the clouds aside.

La Danse #2 will be released on Hard Fist on April 22nd, 2021.

EXCLUSIVE: Juan MacLean - Skies Open [Hard Fist]

Milan-based, Chilean-born DJ, producer, and keen digger, Paula Tape joins us for the 89th edition of the Phonica Mix Series.

Although Paula started her musical career out as a drummer in various metal and indie bands, she is best known now for her distinct brand of breezy yet energetic dance music and her musical creations have been picked up by such labels as SOBO and Alzaya Records, as well as her forthcoming Astroturismo EP on Bradley Zero’s Rhythm Section International.

Paula is also an active member of the Tempo Dischi crew – a label on a mission to discover and repress Italian gems from the lost era, such as Alexander Robotnick’s Computer Sourire and Contact Music’s Keep On Dance to name but two.

Check out Paula’s interview over on offtherecord.net

Calgames Virtual Reality Club 2021 Edition - 11142021

On this occasion Soos and NetterSystem deliver us a five song EP full of mist and 90s vibes. From the beginning this work takes us back to a party set decades ago in which breakbeat, techno and the jungle converge generating a series of sensations that are extrapolated. Digital and analog elements are mixed in the same timeline that in the end they reach the same conclusion: move the body.

As the tracks progress, the haze and white noise fill the imaginary space of our mind. Elements of bands like Spiritualized and many vocal samples fill the atmosphere throughout the tracks creating a well-being and at the same time an explosion of energy that causes you to move your body.
On the other hand, it is worth noting the maturity and the way in which sounds are handled in this work. In some parts it feels like being in the lobby of a European hotel: melancholic sounds that take time to mature in a very short amount of time. It's super enriching to hear layers and layers of sound that fall perfectly into place. In some parts the same melancholy takes us back to that time when the city of Leeds and Nightmares on Wax dominated the slopes. On the other hand, Latin America feels very present in the core of this EP.
Without a doubt, a work full of surprises and sounds that are not easily found.

PREMIERE: Dowd - Hot Sawce (Lucky Charms EP)

Track 3 from Adam's forthcoming EP, Variations In A Minor.

@adampits is as quintessential to the label as it gets. His first two Eps were full on baskets of dynamite and number three is no different. He has three variations on a theme in A Minor, and the theme is...absolute slammeroos.

Remix duties come from great friends of the label and Slam Jams 1 gang, @Tape-Fear. They’ve come correct with an absolute hound dog of a 2-step take on Variation 1. Turn the subs up and dive on in...

Vinyl release is February 26th.
Digital release is March 26th.
