PREMIERE: Product Toss - Yeah, No [Stolen Groove]

Next up on All Centre is Jordan-based artist Toumba with three club-ready cuts. On the title track, Toumba excels in tension-building as the bass-heavy track warps into tripped-out drums and rising drones. 

This is the first time Toumba has released on a label with his two previous releases being pushed on his own Bandcamp page. He is a master in percussion and often brings together traditional folklore from Jordan and the Arab Peninsula and contemporary UK club sounds. Toumba also has a residency on Ma4azef called Gate 4, every 4th Wednesday. 

‘115’ by Toumba will be released on the 21st January via All Centre - pre-order here: https://allcentre.bandcamp.com/album/115

Embodying the mutant nature of club music in the modern age, Cocktail Party Effect comes bowling into Sneaker Social Club with a taut, wiry sound which joins dots and melts barriers at will. 

The brainchild of Charlie Baldwin, who previously recorded as Kasket, Cocktail Party Effect has been forged over the past six years through heavy bursts of sound design anchored by soundsystem dynamics veering between 140 and 160 tempo zones. From 2020’s self-titled LP on Tectonic to drops on Osiris, Cold, Transfigured Time and more, Baldwin’s deftly avoided allegiance to any specific scene and instead deployed shock-inducing gear for DJs with fortitude to test on their crowds. 

On SNKRX010 the commitment to physicality is prevalent across all four tracks, veering from the deadly broken beat barbs and artful fills of ‘Racka’ to the splintered breakbeat rushes and stop-start aggravation of ‘C.A.T.C.R’. ‘Grims8’ is perhaps the purest manifestation of the Cocktail Party sound though, all monochrome rigour with the contrast turned way up, powered by steely, gleaming rhythmic impulses and writhing with dense layers of sonic matter. Watch out for the glutinous bass snarl of ‘58bethe7’ though, which slams in sideways with an unabashed rave instinct crushed through a post-modern production lens. 

Baldwin may be operating on his own terms, but on this 12” he demonstrates versatility to match his originality, resulting in four inventive dance destroyers tooled to bridge between styles, sets and scenes.

Cocktail Party Effect - Grims8

Final Departure

Premiere: J-Shadow ‘Parallel Worlds’

As part of Pollination's second 'Open Culture: No Borders' volume, Yorkshire-born, London-based Kitsta delivers the track 'Tendrilla' as part of the 40-track compilation. The slow-paced but heavy weight cut takes you on a hypnotic, mind-melting realm while at the same time it caters dancefloors all over.

Open Culture: No Borders is a campaign demonstrating solidarity with refugees and asylum seekers, as an ongoing response to the UK government’s ‘Hostile Environment Policy’. The policy has involved a slew of regressive legislations, intended to create a deliberately challenging environment for migrants to settle. In the process, we are seeing cruel approaches to the treatment of refugees and asylum seekers, the use of provocative language intended to create division and the adaption of laws which offer protection of human rights for all.

Proceeds go to Safe Passage International, who support unaccompanied children seeking asylum to reunite safely with their families across Europe, and campaign for more accessible, safer routes.

Premiere: Kitsta - Tendrilla | Pollination

Doof till Dawn

Point of No Return

The first release on OO Recordings’ sub-label Final Drapes presents an electrified and genre-bending EP by DJ Xanor. This release - titled Hybrid EP - features two original cuts with two distinct remixes to top it off. Expect fast turns laced with odd twists and a bit of contemporary techno flavor.

DJ Xanor presents the Hybrid EP, a headbopping new release that dives deep into the digital abyss of contemporary electronic music. Eschewing traditional genre norms, the EP presents a sound that is as playful as it is profound, with hints of fast-paced, almost braindance-y synth works paired with driving drum machine patterns and dizzying sweeps of bass. What better way to kick off OO Recordings’ new sublabel than having DJ Xanor break his hiatus for a two-tracker like this.

The Hybrid EP is a showcase of intricate and high-velocity electronics, both original tracks buzzing with a unique, digitized personality. It’s music that feels both meticulously crafted and joyfully chaotic, blending razor-sharp rhythms with a rich tapestry of synthesized textures. Xanor's signature sound feels less like a hands-on deconstruction of modern digital soundscapes. This blend of multiple stylistic layers of electronic music is highlighted by the two remixes that both dial into their own focal point of the original Love Me track. Member of Kyiv’s Flower Broadcast System, Mootney takes the track on a percussive workout session with familiar sounds of Love Me being rearranged and remangled into a very Mootney-esque trip. Wrapping up the release, another mysterious Finnish producer, Disto turns the original into a rave tool with almost Suomisaundi-like psy-trance hints. 


Artist’s note by DJ Xanor:
‘Hybrid is about evolution. DJ Xanor has been around for almost a decade, and it continues to change with me. UKG and Neurofunk have both shaped the creation of these tracks.’

Love Me (Mootney Love Or Hate Me Remix)

Our new album DURO: 10-tracks focused on Jungle & Footwork, infused with Psychedelic Ambience, Cumbia, and the usual dose of percussion. Accompanied by a 50+ page book with never before seen photos of our creative process and beautiful poetry written by Delbert.
