Hassan Abou Alam - Mawgood (TRAKA Remix) [YUKU]

The upcoming EP, consisting of three distinct and emotive compositions entitled "Flashback," "Feedback," and "Throwback," showcases Nuage's ability to create immersive auditory experiences that seamlessly blend body and mind movement.

Throughout this musical tapestry, every element finds its rightful place.… flickering vocal chops dance around the cranium, intertwined with perfectly crafted 2-step breaks. The warm chord progressions coupled with rumbling reese basses lure the listener into a sonic world that they will never want to leave.

Taken from The Untouchables - Onward Forward [SMDE44]

Released on White or Black 12" and Digital - https://theuntouchables.bandcamp.com/album/onward-forward

Brussels residents The Untouchables return to Samurai for their fifth full release for the label.

While working on their next full length LP for Samurai, a cluster of tunes began surfacing where their inherent dub flavourings had become the dominant characteristic of the tune. Such was the infectious power of these rhythms, it became apparent a full EP of this sound was presenting itself organically. Onward Forward is the EP The Untouchables have always needed to make - a release that will leave an indelible mark on the year. We’re delighted that Samurai is the imprint that releases the EP to kick off our summer 2024 collection.

STREAM & BUY 12" / DIGI: orcd.co/deft_gowest

A familiar favourite, Deft, steps up with his second EP on Hooversound, featuring a VIP remix of one of his original songs taken from his 2020 ‘Burna’ EP.

Defts ‘Burna’ EP back in 2020 set the tone perfectly for Hooversound, it being the second release on the imprint following Hyroglific and Sinistarr’s almighty ‘BS6’. Deft’s hybrid artistic style of production sat perfectly within the launch of Hooversound as he went on to rise steadily within the underground electronic scene. Fast forward four years, Deft returns to Hooversound with an equally impressive follow up, entitled ‘Two Years’.

Yip Wong aka Deft has been producing music for nearly a decade. Within that time he has crafted a signature style using elements of dance, cinematic sound design, hip hop, jungle, footwork and 140. This enigmatic style of production has led him to release on 20/20 LDN, Exit, 1985 Music, Critical Music and more. His release schedule alongside his ever evolving sound has gained the attention of not only London and UK listeners, but fans worldwide.

Defts new ‘Two Years’ EP on Hooversound once again sees the talented producer drawing elements from 140, footwork and jungle, all laced with his ability to create immersive atmospheres and intricate percussion. It’s been teased across SHERELLE and NAINAs DJ sets for months, with it finally dropping to the masses this summer on Hooversound.

Microfunk Crew, the collaboration of Bop & Oak, unveils their latest 3-track EP, 'Future Myth,' out 12 July on Microfunk Music.

The EP kicks off with the chillout vibes of 'Aura,' transitions into the IDM-inspired 'Acid On Bog,' and culminates with the bass-heavy half-step title track 'Future Myth.'

Blending lush, heartwarming synths, nostalgic melodies, over-edited 303 basslines, and sharp punchy glitches, the EP transforms their live performance highlights into refined tracks, showcasing the duo’s distinctive sonic personality and unique take on leftfield electronica.

01. Leese & Chewlie - Saamna [YUKU]

"It feels like at the moment, we're lost in the long dark tunnel. Plenty of dance music seems to operate in a revivalist form, within a regression cycle, it's hard to pinpoint the exact sound of "now" without it referencing other points in history.

"We're trapped in 20th century culture on higher definition screens", poses Mark Fisher in a seminal lecture, and thus, exposes Berardi's concept of the Slow Cancellation of the Future. "Nothing ever really dies, but that's not good". In 1992 it was impossible to imagine the shape of music 6 months into the future, so why are we now constantly going back to these genres?

My aim with this release was to try and participate in the legacy of the Hardcore Continuum within the sonic context of the current world. A hyper-online, overstimulated landscape where our attention is constantly invaded by notification after notification, stimulus after stimulus. I try to materialise this by reshaping sharp noise into pulse, genre staples like the breakbeat get torn apart and forced into a brand new skeleton, and riot-invoking grime chants are repurposed into music set for a bleak now. Jungle, Dub, Grime, Garage, they are all present here, but the heavy gravitational pull of their legacies presents to me as a black hole I've tried to encapsulate in this EP.

Why is the future vanishing?"

Grane Drum [YUKU]

With her EP „LAZY“, PRIMETIMEGABI puts the focus on her roots and presents her musical debut on YUKU in an unexpected way with halftime and doubletime beats that are underpinned by a journey through dreamy nature. 
Produced with machines, the sound of the L A Z Y EP is dominated by bass-heavy kicks, authentic percussions with drive and a laid back coolness.

In keeping with her way of not taking herself too seriously, she plays with rhythms, breaks & melodies that don't lose any energy even though they are partly half-time.

The energy is real - keep it simple.

Disruptive Italian artist Fabrizio Carlini aka COIDO debuts on Nerve Collect with his Irreversible EP, which brings a hyper-charged collision of rhythm, tempo and genre.

COIDO is a new project from an accomplished artist who is all about engineering bold new sound worlds. It draws on a lifetime of collecting sonic data and pulls from techno, Jersey club, breakbeat, global groove and much more. Previous high-energy works found their way to labels like YUKU, Vision and Exit and into the record bags of artists like Jamie xx, Ivy Lab and dBridge. This latest EP sits in a space-time playground that imagines a new future for club music. 

Opener 'Irreversible' is powered by throbbing bass and intricate percussive accents that demand a physical response. Precise sound design, low-end distortion and humming static all bring it to life in HD. 'Make Make' is then a relentless 160 bpm assault with scattershot percussion triggering manic toms, twisted bass stabs and wordless vocal loops. It's controlled chaos and frenzied funk of the highest order. 'Majana' slows things down but is another sub-powered juggernaut with syncopated hits that swings, bumps and prowls in irresistible ways. '12am' is a dank, bass-loaded workout with warped pads bending around the kinetic architecture in ways that contort minds and bodies. Lastly, 'Delirio' is polyrhythmic bass science with ghostly pads and slithers of synth sketching out guaranteed dance floor hysteria. 

Weaponised, unpredictable, and wired for the future, this is club music for a post-genre world.
