LCJ002 Boblebad - Everything

Broken District is the label launched by the creative minds of Jus Jam, Momla & Antwan. Starting up in 2018, the roster has included acts like SofaTalk, Real, J., Sam Irl, Turbojazz, Marian Tone, System Olympia, Junktion, Leon Revol, Setwun, Duktus, Jeppe Wolmer, Interface Palm, Jus Jam & Momla themselves. Here Broken District present their next collaboration with Slowaxx, the solo project and live band created by Riccardo Chiarucci, producer, arranger, and composer from Tuscany. His debut long player ‘Shapes Interfusion’ is a blend of home studio production and live recorded sessions that incorporate lo-fi, hazy jazz, mind-warping electronica, with lashings of hip-hop swagger. It was recorded with a host of dedicated session musicians, and rapper Young A.M.A. 
Opener ‘Emoyeni’ - Zulu for wind, soul, and spirit - is a handful of thoughts fluttering about in the air, expressed via a Rhodes jam played by Luca Sguera, conversing with sharp electronic drums. ‘Y.B.A’ is an electronic jazz session featuring Young A.M.A, his provocative and ego-driven lyrics adding a complexity to the already atmospheric production. ‘Femmes’ is a tribute to women and a timely appeal against gender inequality. Featuring words from Emma Watson, against a backdrop of soulful rhythms & beats, and 90s sampled drums.
‘Pantere Rosee’ and ‘Stazione Funk’ complete both sides with their own unique aesthetic. The first offers up a pure Rhodes, bass & synth jam that is built on a foundation of some wildly acoustic drums. The latter moving in the opposite direction with deconstructed samples of more 90s drums pattens, acid lines and grooves. Closing out, Young A.M.A. returns on ‘No Secret, his easy flow openly expressing views on hip-hop, while the instrumental travels high up into a star filled galaxy with its multi layered keys floating above the incredibly heavy bassline played by Jury Maccianti.

‘Nandakke?’ is the anticipated debut album from Japanese-Belgian duo @ailimakesmusic on @eskimorecordings, featuring 10 tracks of surreal electro-pop, joyful electronica, house music and more. 

Lead track ‘Nandakke?’ is sung in the unique version of Japanese that singer Aili Maruyama and her father created to stay connected when she left Tokyo for Europe aged seven. The song goes out to all people with families living in different countries who are finding a way to stay in touch even when language is a barrier. 

“‘Nandakke?’ Is a Japanese word that roughly translates to "Well, what was it?”, often used when you are looking for a specific word," says Aili. "The song is about the language I speak with my dad, a mix of French and Japanese."

Martin Horntveth, otherwise known as Norwegian electronica producer Gouldian Finch - returns with an exceptional remix package featuring some of the most exciting and talented Norwegian, electronic music talent. Taking on the remix duties for his album track “Natas Kaupas” is none other than nu-disco royalty Lindstrøm and rising electronic talent Pow Pow.


Written in inspiration and named after one of Martin’s favourite skateboarders, Gouldian Finch explains that Natas Kaupas is “mainly based on a bass riff that can be perceived in two different tempos and about 50/50 of the band members play the tempo that sounds right in their head.“


The original track is a testament to the creativity and unique approach Martin takes to making music, passionately breaking down sonic boundaries of what “should” be done. Lindstrøm of course, then gives the track an exceptional Nu-Disco makeover in true Norwegian style. He explains he “wanted to try to strip it down to the bone and then rebuild it with a few but selected musical components. I ended up using a lot of the bassparts, the lovely strings plus of course Martin's drums. I am very satisfied with the resultant think it has become an interesting contrast to the original without losing the intense nerve, essence and soul of the original recording” - Lindstrom


With the Pow Pow remix, you can hear the lower tempo electronica building throughout the track. The strings are still prevalent, but theres a more laid back feel to the remix. Pow Pow explains “Our remix is a musical homage to the Oslo disco and the era when Oslo was the world’s epicentre of electronic dance music.The remix is built around the “disco strings” from the original and a RolandJuno106. To be invited into Martin’s musical universe, fantastic and bonkers as it is, has been so cool!” - Pow Pow

Martin says, "I've been contemplating creating this album since the early 2000s, but the process has always been interrupted by some better-paying gig or project. Most importantly, I've spent a lot of time trying to "land" on a sound that would encompass everything. It was only when I decided to put everything I love into the same pot that it clicked, and it made sense to release the music.

PREMIERE: Boblebad - At The Beach [Citizens Of Vice]

Juno Download review: Boblebad - that'll be Norwegian for 'hot tub' or 'jacuzzi', then - goes by the name of Ulf Moen Denneche in real life and hails, unsurprisingly, from Oslo. 

Here he comes to Citizens Of Vice with three tracks of (mostly) heavily electronic nu disco, with the title track a jaunty, lolloping affair sporting some Daft Punk-esque guitar flourishes, 'Just Think About That Feeling' a slightly deeper, spacier number built for late-hours play, and 'At The Beach' the quirkiest and least synth-tastic cut of the three with its sampled seaside sounds, insistent hand percussion, Spanish guitars and kiddy vox.

PREMIERE: Boblebad - Oslo Love Affair [Citizens Of Vice]

Jimpster dons his Franc Spangler cap and joins forces with up-and-coming London-based producer and DJ Hudson’s Choice for a four track EP entitled Myatts Field. Touching on trippy slo-mo electronic grooves, tropical moods and percussive house jams it brings a more experimental and leftfield sound to Delusions Of Grandeur which we’re sure you’re going to love!  
 
Opening track ‘AcidMan’ sets the tone with a bubbling 303 line taking centre stage while pitched down vocals add a hint of menace, heightening the psychedelic mood. Dubby FX and analogue synth lines drift in and out of focus and give a live jam feel to the arrangement reminding us of something that might grace the decks of A Love From Outer Space. ‘Heavily Percussed’ continues offering up a crazy percussion tool loaded with wonky cross rhythms, glitchy found sounds and a hypnotic synth sequence for good measure. Flip over to ‘Myatts Field’, another slower tempo mutant discoid house groove which takes us on a deep trip into the jungle. Echoing sax and hazy vocals transport us to another world where Weather Report experimented with rolling four on the floor grooves and spacious dub. Closing out the EP ‘Roots’ picks up the pace with another percussion-heavy slice of tropical sounds which doffs a cap to masters such as Gregory and Osunlade.  Steel pan melodic lines intersperse with chiming synth sequences making for an unusual yet hooky club track which will lock the dancers into its incessant groove.

Taking deep progressive rhythms and wrapping them in a pair of wayfarers; Nickelson creates musical narratives influenced by celluloid visions of the 80’s using modern production techniques. A Northern-Brit now living in the US, @nickelsonmusic absorbs and synthesizes his diverse musical and environmental influences.

The Children of Saturn EP was made with a Jetsons style space-age nightclub in mind. From the twin sunrise vibes of the title track to the sleaze and rousing chord builds of "Pick Up," and the tight frenetic energy of "Slunksgiving," the EP embarks on a dynamic journey through synth-laden landscapes.

Accompanying the EP is a remix of the title track, "Children Of Saturn," courtesy of @alwaysfriendsmusic, the new solo endeavor from Brad Eller, one half of the deep house duo Glass Slipper based in Austin, Texas.

Boblebad - Mermaid feat. Guro
(Beatservice Records)

Mermaid is the lead off single from the upcoming "Datamusikk" EP on Beatservice, coming in June.

Oslo-based Boblebad aka Ulf Moen Denneche returns to Beatservice Records with his latest EP, Datamusikk. Having released a succession of standout singles, EPs, and albums across the past three years for the fellow Norwegian label, Boblebad serves up a cosmic whirlwind of polychromatic bliss with this latest four-track EP. Plotting a course through radiant funk, enchanting oddities, red light basement flavours, and cosmic disco it's a voyage of vibrance from the prolific multi-instrumentalist.

A true creative at heart, Boblebad is at home conveying ideas and emotion through the medium of visual art as he is crafting groove-laden sonic textures. Over the years his productions have found homes on respected dance music labels such as Badabing, Paper Recordings, and Full Pupp, with Beatservice becoming a favoured outlet for his genre-traversing creations.

Opening the EP, top-down cruising the solar highways, "Mermaid" layers sweeping synths with juiced-up basslines as young jazz singer Guro showcases a celestial debut of vocal prowess. Ethereal textures, dreamscape dynamics, this is the soundtrack to summer you never knew you needed.

Stomping through the dunes, the title track, "Datamusikk," follows. A squelched-up symphony of crunched gated snares, chugging bass, and desert rock guitar licks. Deep, powerful and alluring its grooves suck you in further with every second that passes.

Take to the flip for a dose of hypnotic, machine-melding stabs and Detroit-flavoured late-night feelings in the form of "You Got Me." A world of textural percussive hits and robot-infused Arps that deliver a commanding presence on the dancefloor.

Rounding off the EP, "Couchsurfer" exhibits Boblebad's future-facing, acid-tinged cosmic disco. Martian music with a human soul, modulating synth touches and a tantalising bassline floating out across the ether.

Four kinetic cuts that demonstrate the range and dynamism of Boblebad's productions for one of Norway's most consistent labels.

Mermaid feat. Guro

PREMIERE: Boblebad - Mermaid Feat. Guro

Over the years Belgium's Eskimo Recordings has played a pivotal role championing the "Scandi-disco" sound releasing seminal albums from the likes of Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas to championing up & coming new artists such as Atella and Cavego. Now it is the turn of Norwegian producer, multi-instrumentalist and visual artist Ulf Moen Denneche, aka Boblebad. 

Following releases on Euforisk, Paper Recordings and Metronomicon Audio, he now steps up with the beautifully hypnotic cosmic lullaby 'Kontemplasjon'. Built around a simple yet instantly addictive acoustic guitar refrain and sympathetic beat, 'Kontemplasjon' subtly builds as new elements, gently swirling synths, softly caressing strings and additional guitar parts, glide in and out of the mix.

A truly meditative listen, 'Kontemplasjon' is the perfect track to lose yourself in and feel the cares from the day ease away over the course of 4 sublime minutes. Lie back, turn the music up and float gently downstream.

Boblebad - Kontemplasjon

Eskimo Recordings is a label based in Ghent, Belgium, and was founded in 2000. Eskimo has always approached the divide between electronic and indie music with a reckless abandon that suggests that there is no divide at all. A mix of Indie Dance / Cosmic & Balearic Disco / Italo / EBM / House and more. Welcome!

Boblebad, real name Ulf Moen Denneche, is an artist that has the essence of creativity coursing through his very being. An all-round production dynamo, the Oslo-based creator is equally adept at crafting immersive sonic textures as striking visual imagery, expertly functioning as an inspired musical producer as well as a painter and visual artist.

In the spring of 2021, the 37-year-old talent arrived on Beatservice with his label debut – the utterly compelling deep house/meta-disco hybrid, 'Vill Falafel'. His powerfully individual music has also found a home on numerous other highly-respected imprints, including Eskimo, Full Pupp, Paper Recordings, and Aquavit Beat, among others. With a stubbornly eclectic sound signature, Boblebad's genre-defying back-catalogue includes gorgeously emotive Balearic soundscapes, brooding deep house grooves, adventurous journeys into electronica, deviant contemporary disco refinement, and all things between.

On top of his prowess as a studio technician and visual artist, he also plays trombone for a cultured Afrobeat band, as well as in a rousing, jazz-inspired big band. Indeed, his musical roots run incredibly deep, and as a youngster, Ulf cut his performance teeth while playing in a marching band alongside none other than Håkon Vinnogg – better known as the one and only Vinny Villbass.
