Superprince - Up Up To The Sky

Back for another round, Philadelphia edit heavyweights Superprince are pulling no punches on their 2nd EP for the Brooklyn disco powerhouse label.
The absolute monster 'Keep It Real' is our pick off the superb EP. A sunny slice of Californian disco, with more vibes than Roy Ayers and one hell of a sax solo. We wouldn't expect anything less from the the boys over at RNT!

PREMIERE: Etur Usheo - From The Plate [Sundries]

Release date: 20th July | Formats: Vinyl EP / Digital | Cat No. JD43
South London producer Ben Hauke takes a sonic excursion to South America via Lewisham for a new seven track release for Far Out Recordings. While littered with Afro-Latin percussion, and samples of obscure Brazilian, Cuban and Colombian records, Only Old stays true to Ben’s distinctly London identity, with a record that fluctuates between house, broken beat and instrumental hip-hop. 
Having collaborated with the likes of Nubya Garcia and Joe Armon Jones, Ben Hauke stands at the electronic end of London’s new jazz movement. Currently working on new releases with more of a focus on live instrumentation, Ben titled the release ‘Only Old’ as it leans more heavily on his foundational approach to music making: an idiosyncratic, almost brazen sampling style in productions bursting with personality.  
Always full of character and style, Hauke’s productions have seen him likened to Theo Parrish and Madlib, with an altogether physical approach to sound. Title track ‘Only Old’ is moody broken beat with eerie sampled vocals and piano. ‘Get Up To Get Down’ is a light n’ breezy summer house stepper, while Brazil-inspired ‘Runners’ sounds as if it was made for MF Doom. 
Only Old will be released on 180g Vinyl and digitally 20th July. Sleeve design by fellow South London based artist Samuel Lloyd.

House music meister @soulphiction-aka-jackmate is on the remix duties for @michael-iwatsu and he wants to get jazzy! His remix is a condensed version of everything that makes the original track an emotional one but also adds a Detroit twist: it becomes a raw, moody and soulful club stomper. Now thats Wassup doe.

Here And Now EP

Premiere - Christophe Salin - Astra perle

wewilalwaysbealovesong are celebrating their 14th release, Melchior Sultana, a name not so unfamiliar in the scene steps up to the podium.

'Phased' is smooth as silk with its lush rhodes combined with classical drum machine programming - this one is destined to stick. 

Out in mid July.

PREMIERE: Melchior Sultana - Phased (wewillalwaysbealovesong)

Originating from Adelaide @youngmanhank impressed us with his Wabi-Sabi track last year, becoming a set staple, so when Nerang hit us up with his new EP we were all ears. 
We've got the track 'Knoe' to show you today and its a lush & floaty 2-step house track. Lightheaded synths swim over that sizzling garage beat and subtle sub bass, leaving with you with nothing else to do but get your 2-step on. I think i see another set staple coming on!

Out August via @nerangrecordings

SB PREMIERE: Hank Youngman - Knoe [Nerang]

While we’re less sure about who/what Momios is and why they/it should be fought, the acid and jazz parts of our premiere are self-evident. Fighting Momios With Acid And Jazz is the B1 cut from the upcoming second release of Leicester label, Flat White. Bogota’s Felipe Gordon is the artist behind the record that encompasses a lot of what we like at Bolting Bits: flavours of house, disco, techno and interesting blends of samples and original instrumentation.

The "Deep Fried Banana" EP is a five-tracker featuring a remix from The Last Trip To Gandahar, whose work we’ve premiered before. There isn’t a track we wouldn’t buy on this record, but our premiere is the stand out for us. While the percussive elements cut in and out, dusty-sounding jazz piano samples and a looped acid synth-line staple this track almost all the way through. It’s one of those pieces of music that feel like every part is completely intentional – even the rough bits are supposed to be rough. Felipe Gordon has built an impressive resume for himself recently, with releases on London’s Quintessentials and Berlin’s Toy Tonics, and we’re happy we can play a part in getting the word out on this guy, because his future looks bright. Also on the record, check out: Groove 37 (if funky basslines and dissonant keys are your thing) and The Last Trip To Gandahar’s driving, dance-focused remix of the EP’s title track, Deep Fried Banana.

PREMIERE : Felipe Gordon - Fighting Momios With Acid And Jazz

Ahead of their huge joint EP being released in August, label regular Sweet Fruity Brunch teams up with breaking Mexican producer Selva to provide a shuffling, house piano chord strewn, piece of dusty, deep, disco house.

The letter was everywhere he looked despite the fact that it ought not to be there. There was no reason for it to be there, it simply hung around like a bad smell... The letter N. The pesky pet hate of his which had left him hung out to dry on more than one or two occasions. Each day was an uphill battle of sorts in which he would attempt to banish the dreaded monster from his mentality and his visual memory... N was everywhere... N For number and N for nowhere...

Richu M is set to release a new EP on Astropical Tapes as the record label takes a left of centre turn towards the abstract. Perhaps more beat focused and groove orientated it is a welcome new addition to the already highly successful catalogue.
