Perceptions In Depth Vol 3

All musical movements require a spark to set them alight; in the case of Japanese house music, that spark was provided by the forward-thinking resident DJs of The Bank in Roppongi, Tokyo. In 1989, to celebrate the ground-breaking club’s first birthday, the venue released a 12” EP featuring first-time productions from three of its DJs, Junichi Soma, Shuji Wada and Strong Katsuya AKS Katsuya Sano.

Widely considered to be one of the first ever EP of house music produced in Japan, 1st Unit was never officially released. Instead, 500 of the 1000 copies pressed were given away at The Bank’s first birthday party, with the rest initially being sold not in local record stores, but rather the venue’s own in-house shop. Three decades on, the 12” is finally set to get its first worldwide release via Rush Hour’s Store JPN Series.

The record has its roots in The Bank’s willingness to give its ever-changing roster of DJs a free hand to play what they liked – at the time a rarity in Tokyo nightclubs, whose musical offerings usually revolved around strictly defined playlists. At The Bank in 1989, it was not only common to hear European body music and the kind of post-disco New York productions associated with Larry Levan’s sets at the Paradise Garage, but also acid house – something not offered at the time by other clubs in the city.

This cutting-edge blend of sounds, combined with the venue’s unique decor (it was modeled on the inside of a London bank, complete with a cashier’s window to take entrance fees), made The Bank a go-to spot for young party-goers, celebrities and forward-thinking Japanese musicians (Ryuichi Sakamoto was reportedly a weekly visitor).

When it came to celebrating the club’s birthday by cutting a unique record, it made sense for The Bank’s owners to turn to three of their most exciting resident DJs, who were assisted by Heigo Tani and Jun Ebi. The collective name, 1st Unit, was chosen to reflect the fact that all three resident DJs were debutants with no previous studio experience.

As this reissue proves, the music remains timeless, magical, and authentic to the sound of American house productions of the period – albeit with occasional twists,. Katsuya Sano’s EP opener, ‘I Need Love’, sounds like a twist on Larry Heard productions of the period – all jacking TR-909 drums, undulating analogue bass, dreamy JUNO synthesizer chords and evocative vocal samples.

The influence of Chicago acid house is also evident on Junichi Souma’s ‘Ubnormal Life’, whose unusual title contains what he says was an intentional misspelling. Driven forwards by restless drum machine handclaps, sweet chords and rising and falling melodic motifs, the track is an energetic and uplifting treat.

Perhaps the most influential of the three tracks at the time – within Japan at least – was Shuji Wada’s similarly misspelled ‘Endless Load’. Deeper and more melodic with a more expansive arrangement, the track’s combination of marimba-style lead lines, tribal drum patterns, dreamy chords and jazz-funk influenced bass offered a loose blueprint for the more successful and better-known Japanese deep house tracks that followed.

The 7th episode of Brouqade & Friends expertly delivered by Enzo Leep 
@enzo-16

Some words from Enzo Leep: "In these two hours of podcast, my intention has been to go through all the vibes that I’ve been exploring lately, delving deeper into some styles that I hadn’t explored before, and discovering a lot of music that I love. To start, some classic house tracks, then I include some of my upcoming tracks and edits that will soon be released. From there, I go into deeper sounds and breaks to finish the podcast with more direct tracks, ending it with a 1997 electro gem. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it! Many thanks to Dana for including my work in her wonderful universe, this label has been a reference throughout my learning in club music. Very happy!"

Denne plade med det semi-melankolske nummer Pillow Peace er meget personlig for mig. Efter et år i glemsel samlede mine hollanske venner nummeret op. Marco hjalp mig mixe det færdigt og sammen lavede vi den alternative version. 1000 tak til Casper og Marco for at tro på dette.

Joining Wallace on the A side is Melbourne's own, Butter Sessions label-bosses, beat makers and party starters, Sleep D.The duo takes you on uncharted odyssey through their version of 'Im Blau'. Psychedelic swells lurk under dubbed out chords, cosmic fragments of the original are revealed before a bounty of bongos and congas take over! 

On the flipside Swedish disco-house rockers Mount Liberation Unlimited turn 'The Gloves Don't Bite' on its head with an extended 12-minute take! A re-imagined bass line mixed with quirky Swedish vocals, and their signature drum freak-outs makes for a memorable ending to this diverse EP.

A long player of new music from DMX Krew is always a welcome sight and sound, and Hypercolour continue to strengthen their association with the seasoned British producer, with his third album for the label, ‘Glad To Be Sad’.

A consistent player in the field of electronic music, DMX Krew has been releasing more goodies on labels like Super Rhythm Trax, Libertine, and his very own Breakin’ Records since 2017’s last Hypercolour album, ‘Strange Directions’.

Those familiar with the catalogue of DMX Krew (all 22 albums and countless singles and remixes) can expect the usual collection of first class electronic funk and modular melodies, but for the uninitiated, ‘Glad To Be Sad’ covers a wide and colourful palette of rhythm and sound, abundant on the bass and with a heavy dose of futurism in its waves of glorious synth-work and deadly drum machine rhythms.

Humans. Billions of vanishingly small, on a scale of the whole Cosmos, creatures that inhabit the blue planetary ball. Humans life is ephemeral and short in space and its vastness. The emptiness above, the emptiness below, and even the great emptiness between them, we are billions of born and disappearing small creatures that inhabit this blue planet that carries us through infinity at the speed of light, through space and time. All this happens so quickly that sometimes we just do not have time to correctly understand what is really happening.
Budapest's This Is Our Time imprint is thrilled to announce its first international artist, Perdu from Amsterdam.  'Finding Life on Planet Rash' he launches us up to the stars with 'Sun Of Nahar' starting this mission with italo-propulsion. This will send you directly to a stratosphere high trajectory and lands us on 'Equalizing The Truth', an elusive jam with a toned-down bassline and otherworldly soundscapes. The triumphant cosmic house called 'Changing Worlds' leads the way on the B-side with rolling chimes and tribal-y percussion and your dancefloor exploration ends with 'Wrong Perception' a subtle and delicate track which is the deepest of all so it gives the space and time to just reflect. 4 mixes 12" record out March 6th, buy here: https://www.redeyerecords.co.uk/vinyl/118597-tiot-004-perdu-finding-life-on-planet-rash

The mob of loosely organised criminals operated throughout the states of the old Mafia. People would rush over to shake their hands and kiss their cheeks. They made time for them all, lending money and buying them groceries if they were struggling. At the height of their power, it seemed that the combine couldn’t be stopped. After Jungle vibes, Cantonese clubs, Bollywood warehouse we now venture into the Italian mob. This released is composed of edits by Kix from Japan, Native Red from Russia and usual suspect RFX from Hong Kong. Needless to say Italians do it better, and you’ll heard the vastness of the music in this release. There is also a little bonus track for the people that buy the whole Album which is rare a cover of an infamous track, you’ll get what we mean when you listen to it. You keen supporting, we keep digging,
