Every night tells a story… So should every release. This is the mindset and vision of Filament. And if you’ve been lucky to attend any of their soirees across The Netherlands – where guests range from Maurice Fulton to Paramida – you’ll understand their attention to details.

Details like this exceptional label debut where the concept is devilishly simple: each EP they release on their new Filament label operations should complement an entire event. The sonic story of the best party you can imagine; a tune for every chapter from the lingering suspense and early haze of doors-open to the wind-up power-hour grand hoorah; no stage of the event should be left out…

‘4pm’ takes things up a gear with their good friend Monty. The tempo’s raised, there’s an off-beat quirk and sense of surprise. Big feelings of dub in the footloose synths and hang drum percussion, it’s one of those tunes where you start to look around and see heads in the dance and share knowing looks. The party’s warming up and everybody knows it.

Dutch vinyl-only label Filament light up our lives again with another V/A concept EP that guides us gently
through an entire night. And while the inaugural release took us through the hazy daze of an open air festival,
002 takes us back to the source... The dark sweaty basement where your best friends are your dancefloor
neighbours, your dancing feet and fat speaker stack.
Three artists, one unified spirit that builds dynamically through the night: Russian bandleader Kito Jempere
ignites the night with ‘11pm’. Teaming up with LovvLovver, the bass player from his band, together they lay
down eight minutes of midtempo, hip-slinking hypnotic funk. Loose drums, full fat groove, it’s every bit the
consummate night-warmer it needs to be.
Onward we slink and writhe into the sweetest hours of the night; ‘3am’ duties are taken care of by exciting new
Aussie duo Donald’s House. Blazing off the back of their recent releases on Nick Hoppner’s Touch From A
Distance, their contribution marks the peak of this nocturnal trip. Big slap bass, epic cosmic leads and an
undulating bassline so fat it would make Moroder blush; this one works whatever hour you play it.
Finally we troop beyond the sunrise all the way to ‘6am’. Courtesy of Brazilian groovesmith Carrot Green, here
we find ourselves floating all the way home on a bed handcrafted by Mr Fingers himself. Timeless, soft-focus,
hopeful; the perfect soundtrack doesn’t just end the night... It leaves you wanting more.
Time to light up the dance...

Running Order:
Kito Jempere & LovvLovver - 11 P.M.

Filament Deejays take the lead at precisely ‘4.28pm’ and not a moment before. Briskly whisking us away on a
trip to Turkey, it’s an alluring, sultry piece that kicks along at a cool 118 BPM and is laced with strings and a
lavish disco bassline.
