Before British house and techno found its’ distinctive groove at the turn of the 1990s, one act led the way: Bang The Party, a trio who emerged from London’s vibrant underground party scene in the mid 1980s and proved, beyond any doubt, that UK producers could make music every bit as magical as the pioneering productions put forward by their counterparts in Chicago, Detroit and New York.

By the time long-running DJs and party promoters Kid Batchelor and Leslie Lawrence joined forces with trained engineer Keith Franklin at legendary North-West London reggae studio Addis Ababa in 1987, they’d spent years as DIY dance music activists in Britain’s capital city. They channelled these experiences and their love of imported house and techno sounds into a new project, Bang The Party, in the process becoming the first British act to appear on Transmat, a reflection of the quality and authenticity of their music.

The latest Rush Hour Reissue Series release offers a snapshot of some of the numerous gems nestled in the Bang The Party catalogue, delivering a much-deserved celebration of one of Britain’s most significant early acid house collectives. It features four fully remastered cuts recorded and released between 1987 and 1990 – on-point and far-sighted club workouts that sound as fresh and timeless now as they did when Britain was sweltering under its infamous ‘second summer of love’.

Fittingly, the EP begins with ‘I Feel Good All Over’, the group’s ground-breaking debut single. Dedicated to their home city and one of the earliest UK interpretations of house music, the track exists in the grey area between Chicago house and New York ‘garage house’ – all jaunty organ stabs, jacking Windy City beats, restless bass and soulful vocalizations. ‘Jacques Theme’, which follows, originally nestled on the B-side of that single release. An early, acid-flecked expression of hip-house with a British twist, breakdance-friendly bongo patterns and a dose of Larry Heard-inspired deep house dreaminess, the track remains an under-appreciated classic whose rap verses reflect the popularity of hip-hop in London at the time.

1988’s ‘Release Your Body’, Bang The Party’s most celebrated early release, was reissued in the United States by Transmat, reflecting the strong working relationship between Derrick May and Kool Kat Records’ Neil Rushton. A hypnotising affair propelled forwards by sweat-soaked drum machine beats, jacking fills and an addictive bassline, the track offers another near perfect distillation of the band’s Black American musical influences while delivering something genuinely new and fresh.

Rounding off the EP is a choice cut from Bang The Party’s sought after 1990 album Back To Prison. Doused in the star-lit synth sounds of the Motor City with jaunty organ stabs inspired by the kind of New Jersey jams championed at East Orange institution Club Zanzibar, ‘Let It Rip’ is a superb slice of deep house soul featuring a lead vocal every bit as emotive as anything laid down by Robert Owens. Like the rest of Bang The Party’s output, it has stood the time better than anything laid down by their London contemporaries.

[PREMIERE] Empty II - Willis Anne | Listening Blue [2024]

Each time I begin writing these descriptions, I get a big smile on my face and everything else seems to slow down a bit. Feelings like this only come from something genuine, and something real. And that is what I've always received from Denis Kazakov. While operating the label at a consistently quality, and prolific level, Denis has been in my sights for some time now. 

From their most recent release of breaks, electro from Minor Sine Project, spanning back to one of their first from 2XM with atmospheric 2-step sounds. Truly expansive with their sound, their geographical reach, and how they approach this thing called music. 

For these reasons, and so many others, it's my pleasure to present the 25th installment of the Selected Timbres Series from Denis Kazakov. Happy listening and feel free to comment for any ID's. Stay LARGE

Selected Timbres 25: Denis Kazakov

To celebrate their new single 'Pasitos Jaguari', which came out on the 25th of January, the Swiss duo Okvsho hooked us up with a fresh new mix. It's the 3rd single of their upcoming album 'A Place Between Us', which is forthcoming as the first album of their own label Current Moves.

For 'Pasitos Jaguari' they teamed up with singer AKIRA and it delivered an interesting piece of jazz with Latin-fused rhythms and lyrics. Definitely making us stoked for what more they have in store for the album.

Check it out on all platforms, and be sure to follow Okvsho in the future for the exciting things to come!

Drone Time Podcast #017 | The Kelly Twins

Purveyors of underground electronic music of varying tempos from the past, present and future, Sean and Dan Kelly rank amongst the most respected selectors in Bristol and have been DJing together as The Kelly Twins for the past twenty years; their sets span everything from boogie and disco to electro and classic techno. Sean also works alongside at Chris Farrell at venerable Bristol record store Idle Hands; evidently some of Farrell’s experience running the Idle Hands label has rubbed off on Kelly, as he has decided to dip his toes into the murky waters of label ownership with his brother.

The label, called Happy Skull, sounds like an oxymoron (can you imagine a skull coming from an apocalypse that rather than sharing the pained expression of those around it, had a big grin across its face?!), but represents what those big minds want to do musically: essentially to put out something that stands out, music that incorporates elements of both light and dark, both rough and brooding whilst maintaining a sense of positivity and musicality, and each release on Happy Skull is the demonstration of it. In the last five years they came out with a bunch of fresh or renowned interesting and outstanding artists such as D'Arcangelo, Cosmic Garden, Creta Kano, Andreas Gehm, DJ October, Marco Bernardi and many more, demonstrating that the most important thing is take risks and think outside of the box.

Happy Skull is an extension of an aesthetic made of influences from the things that have inspired/continue to inspire ‘em, such as boogie, disco, italo, Chicago house and Detroit techno, amongst many other things, with the idea to reflect these in a contemporary and tasteful way, nostalgic but still forward thinking, eclectic but with a certain vibe, putting out space music.

That’s exactly of what are made their sets: their DJ sets are pretty encompassing (even it’s quite impossible to be into everything) but are really varied, within the parameters of what they like and what they get a vibe from, regardless of genre or tempo, reaching a point where people don’t expect one particular thing from them.
And it’s absolutely what they made once again: those amazing twins delivered an exclusive one hour and half set just getting inspired by the name of our podcast series. The result is a mix of ambient, downtempo, screwed, after the club business, featuring tracks from Low Jack, O$VMV$M, Rhythmic Theory, Art Of Noise at the wrong speed plus much much more. Stoner business. Basically, not dance floor.
