Presque un an après le premier volume, la série Risky Business est enfin de retour avec un nouvel assortiment de riddims endiablés, concoctés par un assortiment de talents internationaux :

Étoile montante de la scène montpelliéraine, affilié à Plaisance Records ainsi que l’équipe Monstart, c’est Pura Pura qui ouvre l’EP avec un riddim sombre et martial.

C’est ensuite le nantais Dites Safran, récemment aperçu sur l’excellent label de Toma Kami Man Band qui lui emboîte le pas avec un morceau aux sonorités organiques et méticuleuses.

On traverse ensuite l’atlantique avec le montréalais SIM, sorti à plusieurs reprises sur l’inimitable Nervous Horizons avec un DJ tool mélodique et entêtant.

Retour en Europe avec l’irlandais Glimmerman, boss du label Thrust Collective et auteur d’un EP remarqué sur First Second Label.

Le bristolien Jurango, signé sur Livity Sound, Pressure Dome et plus récemment chez nos camarades parisiens de Resources est également de la partie.

Et pour compléter cette belle équipe, le londonien Dome Zero, vu sur Accidental Meetings et All Centre, livre un morceau syncopé au sound design biscornu.

Almost a year after the first volume, Risky Business is back at last, with a new roster of mad riddims by a selection of international talents :

Rising star of the Montpellier scene, affiliated with Plaisance Records & Monstart, Pura Pura opens the release with a dark and martial track.

Then come Nantes-based Dites Safran, recently seen on Toma Kami’s Man Band outfit with a meticulous and organic sounding riddim.

We then cross the Atlantic to find Montreal-based SIM, multiple Nervous Horizon signee with one of his melodic DJ tools.

Back to Europe with Irish producer Glimmerman, boss of Thrust Collective and author of a remarkable EP on First Second Label.

Bristolian Jurango, signed on Livity Sound, Pressure Dome and more recently our parisian colleagues Resources also hops on the roster with a sick riddim.

And to round up this brilliant team, London based Dome Zero, seen on Accidental Meetings & All Centre, signs off on a syncopated, left-field banger.

Amsterdam-based DJ, producer and biologist Teqmun is next up on Nerve Collect with Worms Still Have To Eat The Dirt, a six-track EP of blistering fusion sounds that come with remixes from Ma Sha and TSVI.

Tijmen Blokzijl's work is an involving eco-system of electronic collisions - IDM, breakbeat techno and bass are in constant mutation as he layers in deft melodies, cooks up punchy rhythms and screws about with synths. He has done so on the likes of Sann Odea, Traumgarten, Flippen Disks and on self-released EPs that have all constantly pushed at the fringes of sound design. Now he brings all that together again across four electrifying tracks for Gamma Intel and Identified Patient's Nerve Collect.

This EP finds Teqmun departing from the cute and colourful elements of previous releases and becoming inspired by the harsher phenomena in nature, such as a high speed escape of hopping desert rodents called Jerboa, deadly sea slugs and fluffy Echinopsis cactus. I am often inspired by nature and its images and quickly get real sounds or feelings of atmosphere in my head when I see images of natural processes. In this case, it’s grimmer natural processes that inspired me which is why these tracks are much wilder than previous releases, therefore they fit in perfectly with Nerve Collect.

'Hand Full of Fluff' kicks off with a playful rhythm and churning bass that is brought to life with prickly percussion. Shards of melody and scattered hits are fired like ray guns across the track. The EP title track is an impossibly kinetic rhythm with fizzing textures and thudding kick patterns that sound like techno made purely by malfunctioning AI. That same sense of futurism pervades ‘A Jerboa's Escape' which has tightly coiled and broken-up drum patterns looping below eerie, unsettling pads that glow brightly in the percussive chaos. 'Corn Has Ears' is another physical club rhythm made from millions of tiny fragments that all coalesce around a harrowing bassline and 'Slug No Escargot' brings dystopian raps to static-laced bass and harder drum patterns. Last of all is the bouncy and buoyant 'Optimistic' with its post-trap vocals and thrilling club rhythms.

First to remix is New York innovator Ma Sha. She flips 'Slug No Escargot' into a percussive workout with writhing bass and cyborg vocal shards that soundtrack an intergalactic meltdown. Next comes London-based Italian TSVI. His take on 'Optimistic Fly' is big, elastic techno with decaying synth leads and zippy pads pulling you in several directions at once.

Teqmun's Worms Still Have To Eat The Dirt EP manages to sound completely out of this world while also connecting on a deeply emotional level.

The album begins with Wave Wave with its uplifting bass arpeggio, followed by Martian with its unique breaks and organic vibes. The title track, Flat W, showcases an even kick, and closes with Bug Bait, one of the most functional DJ tools on the album, with precise programming and sound design backed by Drum'n'Bass' experience. The ultimate club tool has been completed.

SWINGING FLAVORS #13

Première : Naco - Purewater (Swinging Flavors)

Buy : https://gridrecords.bandcamp.com/album/rabatanto-ep
Stream : li.sten.to/8btkpkuq

Toupaz lands on Grid with a luminous, deep and complex EP. 4 tracks mixing impossible genres with contrast as the watchword.

The lead track Rabatanto wanders between dubstep and techno influences, at once dark with sizzling bass lines and ethereal with dubby percussion samples. A club banger for any crowd.

Genuine Connection is the tool of the bunch, galloping along at 142bpm it will thrill everyone with its ultra-detailed uk bass vibe contrasting with airy and colourful synthesizers.

On the b-side, Birdsong slows the tempo with a slow dancehall atmosphere mixed with deep subs and rap vocal samples.

Islandish, the closing track puts the emphasis on emotions, with emo synth lines again combined with dub echoes and a false slowness to create a one-of-a-kind emotional mood.
