Olalalala c'est quoi cette petite voix la

Where are all these tracks coming from seriously 😀♥️🎧🙈

All round fun guy and resident with Sydney’s The Fan Club Collective, Jacob West shares a few words about his latest mix:

These past few years have presented many opportunities for me to explore music and meet some amazing people.

Whist I still love to throw my handbag in the air every now and then, my heart always brings me back to the deeper side of house music.

At a time like this, music feels even more important to keep people connected and hopeful. This mix is collection of tunes that have brightened my days throughout this current lockdown. Hopefully they brighten yours too.

Release twenty-seven on Manjumasi comes from veteran producer Padre, aka Pete Lazonby. Baby Steps and Grand Gestures showcases five diverse tracks of deeply evocative music. Originally released on vinyl as a tight two-sided concept, the digital package now feature additional remixes from Powel and Floyd Lavine.

The Baby Steps open with the crystalline innocence of Jacob's Divine and conclude with the smooth primordial bubblings of Origin of Species. Padre's lucid style is revealed most of all in his collaborations with visionary vocalist and lyricist Oe. The voice is mixed loud and clear, in a more pop than underground way, underlining how unusually well it all fits together.

The Grand Gestures begin with the harnessed dark energy of Feed Your Eye. Sensuous chills and thrills continue with Thousand Fingers , and Last Dance completes the narrative in some romantic sci-fi ballroom. This collection is spirit led and formula free.

A musical globetrotter, Simon Schmidt, also known as Blindsmyth really broke onto the scene back in 2018 with his debut album, ‘Blind’, on his Berlin based home label Cosmic Society. The album was designed to tell a story, like a collage of emotional and musical moments in his life. It was followed by a signing to Diynamic in 2019 with ‘Frozen’ which dabbled in organic beats and hypnotizing vocals, in true Blindsmyth style. His sound has been said to resonate with DJ Koze, Moderat, Bonobo, Burial and Four Tet, however, always remains to be niche.
He first appeared on Connaisseur Recordings in 2020, with his single “Gryllidae’, a quintessential summer track. He followed this with his noteworthy remix for Kollektiv Turmstrasse’s 10th Anniversary release ‘Rebellion der Tr umer’ for their track ‘Was Bleibt’ showcasing his capabilities in the studio. This remix was no doubt a taste for what was to come with his 2nd album ‘All That Fiberglass’ in February 2022.
With a strong sway toward live organic sounds, ‘All That Fiberglass’ has a warm analogue feel. A lot of the album was created with field recordings, his self-built instruments and hardware along with the manipulation of his own voice. Its concept? Social criticism on the challenges an artist has nowadays with the digital world. The duties, but also the distractions.
Blindsmyth has managed to create a visceral feeling which is ingrained into every track: a figurative living, breathing audio organism that goes beyond the studio, and into the tangible. Opening with the melancholy of ‘Transhuman’ lush emotional tones set the scene perfectly and is one of many softer moments that allow the album to breathe. The single releases from the album showcase Blindsmyth’s up-tempo side experimenting with ‘Remember The Days’ which benefits from clever breakbeat percussion layers and a strong lyrical content. Keys melt into the words for cosy warm up vibes, and the listener is reminded of a sound that dominated clubland in the late ‘90s, becoming an inspirational genre for many young producers.
The midsection of the album is an audio ocean of deep emotion from the wistfulness of ‘A Musical Hug’ through the edgy Burial-esque Garage beats of ‘Connection Error’ towards the oriental ambience of ‘Emotion Per Byte’, everything flows naturally.
The second single due to be released just before Christmas is ‘Hack Into Your Soul’.

Its up-tempo Afro feel neatly juxtaposes those deeper moments with warm key and vocals. A secret weapon for the early morning floors that has a strong emotional content and bags of personality. Keeping the energy high on the album is ‘Delete Your Cloud’, which takes a powerful tribal path with intricate drum programming before the penultimate cut, ‘Digital Choral’ acts as analogue cleanser, before the finale ‘ berfahrt’ which gloriously plays out in widescreen technicolour.
The final single and title track ‘All That Fiberglass’ acts as the most dancefloor-focused cut on the album. Icy keys and vocoder vocals give an edgy and energetic peak time sound, a highlight of his recent live shows. The full vocal also showcases Blindsmyth’s song writing abilities and his development as an artist.
