Ophélie, a French Berlin DJ and radio host for Refuge Worldwide, introduces their inaugural release on Hundert Records titled "Pipa Pipa". Drawing inspiration from the early days of Jungle and Drum and Bass labels like Moving Shadows, Ophélie offers their unique interpretation of the atmospheric aspect of this genre. By blending deep, soothing chords with a timeless drum arrangement, they craft an auditory journey that transcends the dance-floor.

PREMIERE : Ophélie - Pipa Pipa

PM001's closer ‘Bad Blood’ wraps the record on a tender note. A sluggish heartbeat pumps beneath the fog of dub delays and distortion, propelling forward a lethargic rhythm. Out of nowhere a blissed out synth line pierces the tension. A sharp, emotive melody disrupting the paramnesia with something new. If the record’s title track suggests a downward spiral through some psychic storm, then ‘Bad Blood’ shows the outline of dry land coming slowly into focus.

Four years since her last dancefloor 12", @upsammy returns to Dekmantel with a four-track exploration of gleaming, sprightly drum and bass with a restorative centre. Thessa Torsing's moves in upper tempo zones have been defined by her light touch, finding power and presence in finely chiseled sounds and sculpting space between intricate, interwoven rhythms.

The dynamic movement of her pristinely moulded percussion is absolutely geared up for the club, but it's also matched with an uplifting, meditative sound palette which tempers the busy energy of the drums. Pushing and pulling on her arrangements with ever-increasing expressiveness and revelling in the subtlest of modulations to her kinetic beat systems, upsammy proves once again that moving in time to fast music can be an incredibly restorative experience.

London-based producer Slacker lands on Markham Road Records with an exercise in both sample juggling and unrelenting pressure. Got Me Down's trio of waveforms spin the same vocal chop to produce some heavy, club-ready sounds. These three tracks lie on the pacier side of the BPM range, instructing a late-night application of their rhythms.

Leading out with the title track Got Me Down, Slacker pounds the subs harder than a Nona making pesto. Fitting somewhere between hard tech and dubstep, Got Me Down is a roller coaster of ups and downs (but mostly ups) that aims to leave dancers rather eager to stay on the floor.

The EP continues with a call and repeat called You Don’t Care. Developing over various percussive lines and bass swells, the track showcases Slacker’s expertise in sorting, pacing, and delivering THE drums. Just like Pooh Beatz, "He Like The HI Hat God Kinda."

The track also gets a spin courtesy of Europe’s other mega metropolis. Paris-based De Grandi morphs You Don’t Care into a step-friendly bass tech track in his latest remixing endeavor. In this remix, two heavy driving sections are laced together by a rather introverted bridge to allow dancers to regain their footing. As per the rest of the project, the remix maintains elements of the original vocal chop while introducing new percussive and rhythmical accoutrement.

Tracklist:

1. Got Me Down
2. You Don't Care
3. You Don't Care (De Grandi Remix)
