Drill Premieres

@come-in-3 - Tramal

Release Date: May 7th
Purchase : gridrecords.bandcamp.com/album/improvisations
Stream : https://li.sten.to/LGWwHm7

Clad inaugurates Grid Records, summoning an album compilation from close friends and affiliates, half French, half internationals. 'Improvisations' allows twelve different producers to explore and create in different directions that they're not typically known for.

Featuring E-Unity, Kevin Murf, C.Coiffure, NRLSD, Doline, MISH, Lastrack, Théo Muller, Solotape, Realitycheck, EXCPT and Troy Gunner, the record establishes a tweaked-out relationship with improvisational sound-design from the outset and throughout. Themes of hypnotism and experimental club-focused excursions are entrenched within the framework, with deadly blows of percussion, and stereo-imaging coexisting in a gorgeous realm of love-injected artistic expression.

A lot of music in the current climate can seem to be executed by overthinking and overpolishing. However, 'Improvisations' turns this on its head, providing a beautifully human feel across twelve, unique excerpts.

Tracklist:
1. E-Unity - Diva Encounter
2. Kevin Murf - Tramal
3. C. Coiffure - Tongue Tied
4. NRLSD - He Got Game
5. Doline - Mélastique
6. MISH - Skunked
7. Lastrack - Yamouriddim
8. Théo Muller - Sea Spirits Calling
9. Solotape - Microflux
10. Realitycheck - Unity
11. EXCPT - Place For Your Ads
12. Troy Gunner - The Way You Went Away

Kevin Murf - Tramal

Premiering 'Diva Encounter ' by E-Unity (@e-unity) taken from the Improvisations V/A LP Compilation out May 7, 2021 via @grid-records

Clad (Rinse France) inaugurates GRID Records, summoning a world-class album compilation from close friends and affiliates. Mastered by Krikor Kouchian (L.I.E.S/Editions Gravats) and with art direction by E-Unity (TEMET/Oscilla Sound), 'Improvisations' allows twelve different producers to explore and create in different directions that they're not typically known for. Clad declares; "I made the compilation only with instinct, without too much reflection. All of the tracks are really different in style but linked by this same idea and endeavour to go beyond the limits of musical genres".

Featuring E-Unity, Kevin Murf, C.Coiffure, NRLSD, Doline, MISH, Lastrack, Théo Muller, Solotape, Realitycheck, EXCPT and Troy Gunner, the record establishes a tweaked-out relationship with improvisational sound-design from the outset and throughout. Themes of hypnotism and experimental club-focused excursions are entrenched within the framework, with deadly blows of percussion, and stereo-imaging coexisting in a gorgeous realm of love-injected artistic expression.

DRILLPREMIERE: E-Unity - Diva Encounter [Grid]

Premiering 'RNG Remix' by Dev/Null (@devnull-dj) taken from the Microjunglizm EP out November 19, 2021 via @evar-records

This November, American cult hero Dev/Null debuts on Trickfinger & Aura T-09's Evar Records with MICROJUNGLIZM, an 8-track album that explores the power and beauty of darkcore, jungle tekno and breakbeat rave. Chopped drums, hairpin turns and alluringly emotional pads open up a time portal between the past and the future, decorated with haunting samples and musical Easter eggs that show off Boston-based Dev/Null's deep history as a rave historian and scholar.

MICROJUNGLIZM's fantasy suite was written over the last year, arranged and sequenced entirely without a computer. Dev/Null fell in love with Teenage Engineering's PO-33 Pocket Operator – a portable, pocket-sized sequencer that he started using during his DJ sets to create special versions on the fly. The limitations of making entire tracks inside the PO-33 immediately suggested the sampling techniques and stylistic hallmarks of early jungle, already one of Pete's longtime obsessions.

"The PO-33 has some of the same low-fi sonic charm as retro gear used back in the day," Pete explains. "8-bit samples, 11khz mono sound, kind of like an Amiga computer. It's been really fun and exciting to have my own tracks to throw into sets – even if they're raw, unfinished 3-minute things which get played once and never again. A few of these tunes were done for my sets at parties thrown by Aura T-09 in L.A., so I'm happy they're coming out on her label."

While these tracks may seem maximal, they are minimal to Pete's ear – a departure from the intricately sliced and information-dense breakcore for which he's known. The album emotionally bottles the essence of a bygone era with an individual palette of influences, from UK grime anthems to Italian horror soundtracks. Pete is not merely trying to tap into the cultural zeitgeist for all things jungle and breakbeat rave – he's already been here, stoking the fires of this scene since the early 2000s with his tastemaker blog (Blog to the Old Skool), his cult vinyl reissue label 8205 Recordings, and his deep dive radio shows: Demon Poetry on NTS and BTTO (with new-era jungle torchbearer Tim Reaper) on Jungletrain.net. MICROJUNGLIZM itself follows on from the momentum created by Pocket Selector, Dev/Null's 2020 outing with the PO-33 on the Modern Urban Jazz label, run by veteran UK drum 'n' bass producer Justice.

MICROJUNGLIZM is available NOVEMBER 19th, on Evar Records via digital download and 12" vinyl. Check out these amazing breakbeat meditations from a modern master of the style.

“As a DJ, producer and host of website/radio show Blog to the Oldskool, Pete Cassin’s musical activities are by the dedicated, for the dedicated.” - Truants

From growing up in Pennsylvania to moving to NYC, Puerto Rican producer, Luis Aponte has been known for being one of the most influential drummers of his generation and part of PA hxc band JESUS PIECE.
It’s natural since his young age that, LU2K, his dj & producer alias, was experimenting music through electronics and finding his way into bass, hardcore or breaks. After years spent behind the drums, he is now spreading his music in the Electronic scene with his unique sound and aesthetic.
LU2K carries a strong musical background and culture, but also an energy that is demonstrated on any dance floor, through his last releases and Dj sets.

We are extremely proud to welcome him on 99CTS RCRDS with his new & second release : "FUCK REAL LIFE".
