Minimal Tech


As ever with the Hell Yeah crew, there is an interesting back-story to the label’s next release, the ambitiously titled Coast to Coast EP. Firstly, the title refers to the fact that Justin VanDerVolgen hails from the east and Doc Martin the west coast of America, but that’s not all…

The label boss first heard Alexander Robotnick’s Undicidisco*track in a set by Golf Channel associate *Justin Vandervolgen. He went to ask what it was and turns out the track had only been released digitally. Keen to give it the full release it deserved on wax, he fully licensed it and got a remix from the man who first played it, as presented here. So far it’s done well, with Running Back boss Gerd Janson playing it recently at P-Bar – of, course it went down a storm... and Beats In Space's Tim Sweeney shouting "This is the Jam"... wow

The track itself is seven minutes of playfully droning bass synths and boom-bap percussion. It’s alive with darting synth tweaks and twitches and races through outer space at an inviting pace, radiating good time vibes from start to finish.

It’s a similar story with the flip – Hell Yeah’s Marco heard one of his (and dance music in general) heroes, Doc Martin, playing the Florian Meindl's bass driven original mix and immediately wanted to give it a full release, but not before asking Doc for a remix.

That remix is released here and is a heavyweight, shuffling bit of house funk with a tight, knotted and tumbling bass refrain propping up soaring diva vocals and grainy, infectious claps. It’s a wavy and hugely inviting groove that has plenty of lip-curling attitude to it.

A fine release with a great backstory that comes complete with great vinyl artwork designed by Andrea Amaducci, this Coast to Coast EP is yet another fine weapon in the Hell Yeah cannon.

Make Me Feel Good

Eagles & Butterflies has led a a charmed life since the outset really, with his productions picked up by John Digweed's Bedrock and more recently, a residency at Space Ibiza's Friday night shindig, Clandestin, to his name. His latest cut marked his return to the Spread Your Wings imprint  and made our single of the week as we championed the heady, jam-packed series of tracks made for the floor.

Following  on from the release Eagles and Butterflies has now  exclusively shared his set from last weeks performance for Bedrock alongside John Digweed and Max Cooper for all of us not fortunate enough to make it down to Fire. iI might just be time to sit back and watch as Eagles & Butterflies takes flight…

Stream my new track here - https://healers.lnk.to/moss

When making moss, I wanted to make a darker sounding song that wasn’t too loud. I played a lot with the depth of the kicks and like adding all kinds of sounds that make a song feel very rich. When on my trips I took pictures of different shades of greens found in the different places I visited. “Moss” is an ode to the understated beauty of darker, deeper hues of green in nature. I don’t think moss always grabs your attention immediately, but its beauty has to be spotted.

Following the success of his last RS release, 'Ripples,' the enigmatic Wallace returns to Rhythm Section after a series of stellar releases with a highly anticipated follow-up - ‘Papertrip’

This is another Wallace record that is destined to be a global club and festival favourite. His last releases received extraordinary support from such a wide range of DJ’s including Gilles Peterson, Palms Trax, Blond:ish, Moxie, Hunee and DJ Tennis and this new EP is set to expand this roster of supporters.

Wallace's impact on the scene has been nothing short of extraordinary, since Ripples he has gone on to play in the iconic Panorama bar, tour Japan and release a double LP on Mule musiq. Wallace continues to cultivate a dedicated following among discerning listeners and industry tastemakers alike. Now, with the forthcoming release, Wallace is poised to ascend to new heights, continuing the undeniable and contagious Wallace-maina.
