When it is about art and music we are fascinated by unexpected sweet spot combinations: When traditional concepts meet new ideas, when darkness meets light, when rough meets the smooth. 
Here at 45Seven Unlimited we enjoy our sweet and salty popcorn and we are always looking for exciting new blends that inject modern beats and basses into a half century of Dub history. This next incarnation of our bubbling melting dub tank hits right in this very honey pot with this double A side by Rainforest.

Bullet Riddim sets the pace for this plate with a nicely syncopated yet rolling groove with deep skanks, playful bass and some delicious drum switching. "My selectah is here to suit your heart desire ... and set your soul on fire" proclaims the vocal chop throughout the intro. And he is not wrong: Bullet is a rollercoaster of Jungle breaks, dubbed out Reggae horns, skanks and FX. Truly a "riddim so nice you gotta play it twice". [...]

Rainforest is transmitting from Mexico, has got a strong graffiti background and releases Drum & Bass music on labels like Shoot, Omni, Absys, Syhda, Monochrome and his own Breakbeat Rebelz. Known for the brilliant Jungle Is Our Dub 7" on 45Seven in 2016 which was almost label defining already, this new plate is even about to run them all out again. "Pull it up"!

Adepta Editions is immensely proud to unveil the inaugural release of its new ALTARI series.

Conceived and brought to life in close collaboration with guest curator Roberto Semeraro (Pearl River Sound), this series was born from the resonant partnership forged during the creation of Roberto's The Amen Experience EP, a period marked by extensive dialogues that delved deeply not only into the sonic landscape of Pearl River Sound but also into the fundamental tenets we recognized as vital within the realm of avant-garde electronic music. 

Introducing "Sleek Vibra," the debut EP from Alessandro Gramaccioni (AFM), a promising young Italian artist who brings a unique perspective shaped by his experiences with the Amen Rave collective and a prior digital EP on Lapsus Records' CEE imprint. This six-track offering for Adepta Editions is a potent statement, where AFM masterfully blends and reimagines diverse genres, idm/ rave oriented sound / bass/ techno / afro- arab beat. The result is an immersive sonic tapestry, a fusion of memory and tangible form into a cohesive audio-tactile encounter. "Sleek Vibra" invites listeners on a futuristic exploration of shadowy environments, where the mechanical relentlessly consumes the organic. This intense sonic declaration holds back nothing, painting a vivid picture of annihilation in its path.

For Alessandro, "Sleek Vibra" marks the inception of a complex and profound process, representing a conscious endeavor to understand the "tangle." It's about approaching and comprehending the intricate emotional knot, discerning its junctures, folds, and the very ligaments that constitute it. Each track on the album embodies a different vantage point, a strenuous attempt to connect with something that has been allowed to become overly complicated, knotted, and self-referential for too long. Consequently, the album's development navigates these emotional filaments, chronologically tracing the unfolding of the tangle.

This playlist featues music resulting from a 12-month parallel effort on 12 tracks. The artist aimed to influence their arrangement and the physical acoustic nature of the elements, chosen to create a physical environment for each track's development. Their concept involved each component merging based on the varying solidity of sounds, which aided in building structures for rhythms or to submerge the entire arrangement. The process prioritized creating the "Sleek Vibra," permeating and evolving with each track by contouring sounds. Later, the artist focused on merging the physical with the musical/emotional aspects, leading to a holistic view. Working on multiple tracks simultaneously allowed for the creation of distinct yet interconnected worlds via the "Sleek Vibra," intended as a psycho-physical sensation. The artist's final challenge was to simplify the listening experience, favoring intelligibility within varied, sound-filled yet simple and well-defined arrangements. The album spans genres like idm/rave, bass, techno, and afro-arab beat, serving as an experiment to understand the malleability of "Vibra," with these genre explorations being the most successful.

Bristol-based @k_means operates at the fringes of electronic music. It's not tempo and genre that unites their sound, but more an exploration of mood and texture underpinned by bass-heavy low ends and hypnotic rhythms. The Noods, Rinse FM and Kiosk Radio regular is also resident at Bristol's Psychotherapy Sessions and will debut at Dekmantel Festival where you should fully expect to be taken into plenty of unknown musical territory.

It is the same with their mix for us this week - a wild trip into futuristic drum patterns and interplanetary sounds that melt the mind and contort the body. There is a constant push and pull between the organic and the synthetic with tribal percussion and warped vocals brushing up with bleeping synth modulations and experimental minimalism. It's a magnetic selection that's as much an imaginary movie soundtrack as it is a dance floor escape.

Dekmantel Mix 487 - k means

Soul music has always been part of my musical education and, even if I play it less and less in DJ sets, it remains one of my greatest loves. For the new monthly programme on Radio Raheem I took some of my favourite soul 7"s and mixed them with beats, samples and ideas from some of the hip hop producers who have been able to make the most of the legacy of this enormous musical heritage of African-American culture. Featuring: The Moments, Dee Dee Sharp, Brothers Unlimited, Chuck Johnson, The Charmels, George Jackson, The Dramatics, Garland Green, Madlib, Kanye West, J Dilla and Niontay.
