Debuting on Blankhaus, Ale San presents "Near Mint"—a skillful exploration of liquid drum and bass that pays homage to the evocative beats of 90s UK. Based in Barcelona, Ale San crafts a unique blend of relentless energy and melody-driven finesse across three tracks, capturing the classic sounds of the era.

Ale San - Near Mint

PREMIERE: Ale San - I'm Like

The night was young but already the music was loud as they drove further and further away from the city and into the countryside. Soon it would be dark and they’d begin the hunt. It was the same skit every weekend, the same places and faces looking for fun on the outskirts of town.

This old car had miles under its belt, it had been to fields and warehouses all over the South coast in the search of dancing and delight.

It was the hunter itself, powered only by the mischief of its passengers.

Retromigration channels elements of House, Trance and beyond on a fast and furious new EP for Handy Records. However, beneath the pace sits a deep rooted groove which can be hard to place without careful consideration and handling. This is a producer in top form.

It seems there is a lot that can happen in a campsite of a festival, and an EP from Mella Dee on Private Parts is one of them. Cut to, a musical exchange to take place, and Strictly Ruffneck EP to be born.

Strictly Ruffneck EP has Mella Dee exploring his deeper, wigged out and wonky side in fine detail.

London outfit Kassian continue their broadly-evolving yet highly detailed journey through and beyond sound towards something ever more expansive. Their second release for !K7 Records comes in the wake of creating a dedicated hardware-forward studio in a Northeast London container complex, where they have the freedom to interlink their machines. This renewed focus brought them to Supercontinent EP, named for the ancient geological era when Africa and South America were joined as Pangea.

A reformulation of rhythmic ideas inspired by South African Amapiano and South American Baile Funk governs the two hemispheres of the record. The pair examine and deconstruct dancefloor material, eschewing 4/4 for interlocking shaker patterns, searing acid lines, cracking breakbeats, and vocal samples in Zulu and Brazil Portuguese.

The immediacy of the restless rhythm and bass-led funk of “Yena” forms a sweet spot where double-time and half-time can coexist. The word Yena translates to ‘he / him / man’, and the punchy male vocal loop punctuates the track’s deep swing, enhanced by amapiano log drums sped-up to a glassy pitch.

“Yami” (‘mine’ in Zulu) is a slinkier proposition which sheds prominent percussion in favour of a weighty, fluid, acid-informed bassline undulating from below. Contrasted against its jutting female vocals and sharp synth pads, the track cultivates dancefloor anticipation, accented by skittering percussion and time-stretched acid disintegration.

An ascending percussive riff marks the arrival of “Pulgueiro Baile”, followed closely by break beats and the nostalgia of distinctly British acid electro. While pulguero translates as ‘flea market’ there is nothing random to be found; it is an intentionally future-forward retelling of a vintage sound, replete with a mind-melt breakdown of rave pads.

A dubbed-out groove dominates the bottom-heavy “Sistema Baile”, established by a leading Roland System 1 synth line. It is a groovy, steady roller that chugs and propels and chugs with head-nod hypnotism through an intricately minimalistic approach.

Supercontinent EP [!K7 Records]

PREMIERE: Kassian - Yena

not even noticed are an incredibly talented German duo who have been laser focussed on their signature sound since their foundation in 2020. Hailing from Frankfurt & Leipzig, Carsten & Lucas have amassed a gorgeous catalogue of music that incorporates the ethereality of Trance combined with the gritty, heads-down feeling of classic Acid House and Breakbeat. Their latest EP Source Transformation lands on Faux Poly this Spring.

This release showcases the artists inherent flair for treading the line between delicately uplifting melodies and rattling heavy bass. Each track conjures up a beautifully atmospheric future-acid world that is a dream to get lost in.
