Basic Instinct

A1. Trying To Make It Home (Snippet)

A long time fan of Home Taping, he delivers a stunning debut for the label criss-crossing the boundaries between various subgenres of House music, while denying any of them total dominance. In doing so he announces that Borrowed Identity has found his spiritual home on the imprint and that there is hope for those who still believe.

DJ Play: Laurent Garnier, Nicholas, Tensnake, Luke Solomon, Pete Herbert, Jacques Renault, Llorca, The Black Madonna, JKriv, OOFT, Sleazy beats, Simba and many more.

Borrowed Identity - Searching Forever (Home Taping 19) Snippet

We first introduced these strapping young house aficionados from Sligo, Ireland, with their debut EP as a pair, “Street Urchin”, a little over a year ago. Since then the guys have been busy with a massive release on Detroit Swindle’s label Heist, not to mention their unbridled musical passion lead them to launch their own label Splendor & Squalor beginning of this year, kicking things off with a sell out vinyl only pressing of another four track EP of their own imaginings featuring a hot remix from Session Victim. 

We’re pleased to share with you their latest creation, the stunning “Lamaj’s Secret EP”. Now, we’re not sure who Lamaj is exactly, but the mystery, funk and raw sex appeal in these four jams certainly has us wondering. 

First up we meet “Lamaj”, this track drips with delicate melodic samples, jazz tainted drums and bass driven funk galore. We asked our long time friend, Australian Andy Hart, to give it a flip for us on A2. He opened things up, deepened the vibe and brought some bass toms to deliver a final punch. The B-side begins with “Four Lights”, here the guys slow things down a little and remind us of their gift for nostalgia touched soul and groove samples. Finally, “Garlic Fist Pump”, as the name suggests, takes us straight back out to the dance floor, between the dynamic live drums, subtle vocal snips cry to the hip hop Brame & Hamo draw so much inspiration from. Welcome to the House of Lamaj, we hope you’ll take off your coat and stay a while.

It's been a happy spectacle watching our friends at Lobster Theremin grow into the pink-bellied beast we see before us today. Their following has grown almost as quickly as their roster, snowballing via a release schedule that's as strong as it is frequent: a consistently welcome serve-up of Motor City-inspired house, dreamscape acid and narcotic techno. 

Late last year, Camp Lobster drilled deeper into the spectrum with Mörk, the label's darkling sub-imprint and home to its gloomiest techno. This week they inaugurate a new imprint, Distant Hawaii – a summer off-shoot for beach-coasting sunshine house. And its first release is exactly that: a wonderfully deep debut for Manchester man Hidden Spheres. 'Waiting' is our pick of the litter: a glowing thumper that's all butter-melt Rhodes lines, ecstatic vocal whoops, and tons of playful percussion. The perfect summer jam, basically – coming to a terrace near you very soon.

Charmin Records announce their 5th release, a split EP coming from label boss Florist and close friend/collaborator Tilman. From their base in East Germany, Charmin have been slowly but surely putting together an impressive catalogue of releases and this next offering keeps up this trend with aplomb. The EP shows that, while remaining deeply rooted in house, Charmin can bring many different colours and sounds to the table.
We kick off with Tilman, who steps up to the plate with two cuts of excellent deepness. The A Side opens with “Horizon”, which all hinges on lush piano stabs and a deep, deep 808 kick drum. Next up “Never Go Back” which is a brooding, heads down number. The sultry chords are wonderfully understated, brimming with energy. Over on the flipside, Florist’s “That Morning”, which focuses on solid house percussion weaved together with silky Rhodes chords. Finally we round things off with “Acid8”, this bubbly number doesn’t rely too heavily on tired tropes, but just builds up energy with the hypnotic acid line, playing with the swing of the rhythm track to break up the formula nicely.

PREMIERE: Tilman - Never Go Back

supported by:
DJ T, Breach, Eclair Fifi, Moxie, Ian Blevins, Bill Brewster, Homeboy, Hrdvsion, Tensnake, Deadboy, Danny Daze and many more! thanks!

Poland’s Catz ‘N’ Dogz line up the next 12” on their blooming PETS sub-label STEP. With previous releases from the guys themselves, Eduardo De Le Calle and Das Komplex - they now bring a fresh signee into the fold in the form of 96 And Forever Records affiliate Baltra. 

Baltra has garnered a fervent following through his intricate and evocative productions that marry bold drums with delicate melodies. Staying true to form, the New York based artist presents his ‘Sophia’ EP - a scuzzy two-track EP built around his common thematic anchor of love, passion and relationships. 

Mixed to tape, the record carries a raw, tangible quality and kicks off with ‘Lookin 4 Love’. Fizzing 909s are driven through soft, circling synth tones and sultry spoken vocals before ‘Over Again’ melds tricky drum programming with clipped, moody vocal samples that cap off another fine addition to the STEP series - the second record from an artist firmly on his ascent
