Legowelt - Crystal Cult 2080 Album News, EP announcement

Irrepressible Dutchman Legowelt is to release a new album in the coming months. Entitled ‘Crystal Code 2080’, it will come on Creme Organization and is preceded by a sampler EP that features one track from it. That track is ‘Crystal Cult 2080’, a melodically mystic production that is alive with Legowelt’s usual synthesiser magic. 

The other three tracks are just as muddled and multi-layered, texturally rich and typically Legowelt.  They include the eeriness of ‘majestic Alchemy’, the stormy and filmic emotions of ‘Mistral’ and classic house jack of  ‘Do What U Gotta Do’ with its mesmerising synth lines and deep moods.

The ‘2080’ part of the album title is taken from the Roland JV2080, a legendary digital synthesizer from the nineties that was used a lot in the making of the album. Bought second-hand in Tokyo for a couple of hundred dollars, it lends the record a very dewy eyed soul, whilst the ‘Crystal’ part of the title stands for the self-made ‘DIY germanium crystal compressor’ Legowelt used throughout the writing process. 

The album itself features ten new tracks of pure Legowelt music mainly recorded in De Hague in the past year, but also on the road during tours of LA, the Californian desert, Tokyo (which spawned ‘Crystal Cult 2080’) and Tejada Gran Canaria (where ‘The Future of Myself’ was written.) Where his last album The Paranormal Soul was an organic trip into misty forests, this one seems more concerned with medieval spirits; it’s deeper, darker and the whole thing is tied together by a more coherent sense of ancient alchemy. 

Given the use of a DIY germanium crystal compressor during production, it’s no wonder everything feels warm, fuzzy and mystic in a way that draws your attention in like that fabled philosopher’s stone… glare too long and you might just turn to stone. Right from the opening track the mood is so encapsulating you are drawn right into Danny Wolfers’ mysterious electronic world. From there various different tempos are explored and plenty of famed synthesiser work comes to the fore, wrapping grooves in trippy themes, impish spirits and plenty of organic lushness.

GCA004 ‘Rudeboyz EP’
Release Date: 1st June 2015
Format: 12” Vinyl/Digital

Rudeboyz are Massive Q, Andile-T and Menchess from Durban. They make Gqom (or Gqomu or Igqom); raw, dark and hypnotic South African house music rooted in the townships of Durban, and shared with the world via the internet and social media. Gqom blares out at makeshift clubs, taxis and shopping malls; it is the music in Durban. Gqom roughly translated from Zulu to ‘Bang’ or ‘Hit’ - It’s uncompromising and stripped back music geared for the dancefloor. 

This EP has been a long time coming. Internet in Durban is woeful, which explains why a lot of tunes are at lower bit rates and equally why this release has been so long in the making. 

The EP opens with Get Down - the most direct and punishing of the four tracks with a punching synth and unrelenting kicks that do not deviate from their rhythm or their cause. 

Mercedes Song and Mitsubishi Song are odes to legendary presses of the pills that fuel the parties that run through the night. They roll for six unsettling minutes a piece - a long ominous drone underpinning the pounding beats. On Mercedes Song TD Snax adds to the unease as he shouts and yelps in Zulu: “Yaze yangibamba weeh yaze yangibamba” - "This Mercedes has got me so high, this is my Mercedes.” Mitsubishi Song, one of the biggest Gqom tracks of 2013, mirrors this unease switching between cascading toms and jolting, stuttering rhythms, cowbells and bird tweets.

Sambuka Dance is an ode to a very different poison and its disorientating arrangement is reminiscent of its effects. A jarring, angry chant harasses incessantly transforming the track into a full body experience.

As Jumping Back Slash eloquently put “Gqom feels like music you’ve been listening to for years”. It is a ghostly cousin of sounds it touches on - brash, abrasive music with no inhibitions.   

These four tracks were handpicked from a vast catalogue of tunes from Rudeboyz built up over the last couple years. We urge you to go listen to more of that catalogue: http://kasimp3.co.za/RudeBoyzSA

A great philosopher (Samuel Johnson, not Ebeneezer Goode) once wrote… “our brightest blazes of gladness are commonly kindled by unexpected sparks”. While it would be a stretch to suggest the Drumcode artist roster are closet philosophy fans, once one begins to unravel the tale that led to Jel Ford remixing the 2012 Alan Fitzpatrick hit ‘For An Endless Night’ and it is impossible to escape the unexpected enterprise and spirit of surprise that are at the heart of this exciting collaboration. 

As fans of Adam Beyer’s label will testify, the two Drumcode names have more in common than just a label stable, they also share common ground with the peak-time melodic sound that has delivered many of the labels most memorable output. Ford being a much more recent addition than Fitzpatrick, whose history with the seminal Swedish imprint stretches back to 2009, however Ford’s history within techno goes back even further having released multiple EP’s through the early noughties on vintage UK techno labels including Dave Angel’s Rotation Records, Billy Nasty’s Tortured Records, Primate Recordings and Ford’s own Jericho imprint. 

It is within this shared passion for uplifting synths and big room melodies that the ‘unexpected spark’ of creativity that led to Ford remixing Fitzpatrick can be found. An long-time admirer of Fitzpatrick’s work, Ford had developed an idea for his alternative version and secretly worked on the remix long before any discussion of the project had taken place. Once given the draft version, Fitzpatrick immediately endorsed the remix, excited to have an updated version to breath new life into what had become a familiar staple of his sets for the past two years. Parts were swapped and the end result being the barnstorming end-of-night monster presented here. A track that will be familiar with many having been the subject of much social-media furor since it first surfaced back in Autumn 2014.

Planet Rhythm latest vinyl contribution comes by Rennes based producer Berg Jaar. Berg comes as a true addition to the ever growing PRRUK reportoire. Firm drums and sturdy FX serve as the backbone of his contribution. With little info to be found about the french producer this release serves as the perfect example of the adventurous mode that Planet Rhythm currently finds itself in. Moody yet intrusive in many ways.

Berg Jaar - DNA EP [PRRUKLTDDNA]

Popping up for the first time on Figure SPC Y, it was the remarkable synth-work of @UBX127 that instantly struck a chord with the label’s demand for substantial techno. Now the Stockholm artist proves himself loyal and hits back twofold with a pair of EPs that further highlight his mastery of both vivid modulation and effective sequencing.

Leading into this batch of new tunes are the crafty and beautifully fleshed-out synth-arpeggios of opener Han, which UBX127 complements gracefully by adding tender touches of melody. A2 cut Create and Destroy displays a new side to the producer that verges on the manic, building upon a swirling theme that soon flies into a lunatic frenzy. Soothing then are the spacious sounds of Barabrus, a crisp piece of floating breakbeats and shoving sub-bass. Living up to its name, Swells starts as a bold synth-led groove and slowly grows into a romping beast that rebels against glistening sonic whiplashes.

Even in its own right Constant Permutation Part 1 stands as a cohesive and compelling record that will add to any collection. But with its equally strong successor already waiting in the wings, it is UBX127 himself who will make a lasting impression.

Brian Sanhaji - Cortosis (Chris Liebing Remix)

Just Jack Recordings lines up a limited edition white label vinyl release from an unknown artists titled ‘Blessed Are The Meek’, delivering the essence of Chicago with a raw and heavy house anthem.

As the Bristol based imprint continues to carve out its place in the underground, releases from the likes of Mr. G, Dana Ruh and Beesmunt Soundsystem have showcased its carefully curated output over the past few years. Now a new vinyl release, limited to 303 copies, adds to its acclaimed catalogue.  

With an infectious, old-school synth melody at its core, ‘Blessed Are The Meek’ is an instant classic. A steady bass line lays the foundation while a jacking beat and a big diva vocal amps up the energy. Simply put, it’s pure fire for the dancefloor.

‘Blessed Are The Meek’ is out on vinyl June 30 and serves as the introduction to an LP coming later from the artist who has yet to be named.

Premiere: Unknown Artist 'Blessed Are The Meek'

Italian native Fabio Neural teams up with growing Columbian talent DJ Fronter on the ​Brr Baby Brr EP​. Soon to be released on Hot Creations, the three track release is a contemporary house affair that shows the natural chemistry between the two.
“We decided to point to something big, such as Hot Creations. We worked hard and put all our ideas and energies in to achieve our goal, with Brr Baby Brr being the main track of the EP.” ​Fabio Neural and DJ Fronter.
Leading with ​Brr Baby Brr​, a driving kick is soon complemented by whistling hats, before a teasing synth build up gives way to a pummelling bass driven drop. ​Silver Star comes in next with a reverberating vocal sample that’s underlined by a subtly changing bassline and warm, building pads, before ​Downtown rounds off the EP with a harder techno tone as punchy lead kicks meld with choppy, non-apologetic keys.
Having produced music since 2010, it was last year that Fabio Neural really caught the ground running with releases on two of modern house music’s leading labels: Relief and Saved. This year has been followed up with ​Brr Baby Brr​, his standout release of 2019 and his first release on Hot Creations. ​DJ Fronter is one of Columbia’s most prominent artists. Having previously performed for the Resistance party brand his DJ sets speak for themselves, whilst his knack for producing has seen him release on labels like Circus and Nervous.
