Extrawelt - Darkside of My Room

Materials label bosses Mak & Pasteman return to the label with a 4 track sampler EP.  

After their previous EP on Materials in August, Mak & Pasteman have delved deeper into their affinity with analog equipment and put together a 4 track EP that has been tried and tested throughout their DJ sets over the past few months. 

"Bald" is brazen, a straight up acid club tool with a modern edge. 

"Drive" continues on with the acid drum machine feel delving into the pairs love for Detroit techno. One sample, one drum machine, one synth, one take. Simple but very effective. 

"I Want You" draws more into Mak & Pasteman's previous Lobster Boy work taking raw beats and layering in thick analog bass tones while the sample rolls. 

"Granulate" harks back to the emotion on the last release, Jam one. Layering atmospheric vocal cuts over techno beats to build into something raw and effective.

The 'ZTRK1' EP features two original tracks that touch upon cosmic grooves and rolling crescendos. It's a techno-inclined EP and it goes further down that route as Skream has put his own spin on the title track.

As with most of his recent productions and edits, Skream has applied fierce progression, mind-bending melodies and intergalactic synths and whirrings that pulsate from the off. 

A great EP and a wicked edit to boot.

Beatport: po.st/BeSoCruelEP 
Release Date: 8th June 2015
17STEPS004

Following releases from label heads Dusky and Christian Piers, 17 Steps returns with an awaited label debut from Velvit (Darren White) that offers both forward-thinking club sounds and leftfield sonics. 

Co-opting the dark, technical style that Darren has long practised as drum & bass legend dBridge, lead track 'Be So Cruel' adds a fresh perspective on house and techno forms that instantly stood out from the pack. 

Blending dark grooves and sinister mechanics with Darren's own soulful vocals, 'Be So Cruel' has been heavily anticipated ever since it featured in Dusky's Resident Advisor mix last year.

Featuring the vocals of his brother Steve Spacek, 'No Excuses' is a stripped soul roller with dense rhythms and mad jazz moments that works as both meditative headphone trip and experimental dancefloor moment. 

Completing a diverse triple header, 'South Of 01Your Soul' takes things down a futuristic electro vibe with dark sci-fi cinematics battling it out with body-popping beats and Darren's distinctive cyborg soul vocals.

Beatport: http://smarturl.it/Nighthawk 

If you’ve at all sniffed around the Beatport charts at some stage in the last 12 months, then it’s highly likely that you’ll have been hugely impressed by a Berlin-based duo that go under the name ‘Mat.Joe’. With a string of releases and remixes in the last year on Snatch! Mother Recordings, Defected, Strictly Rhythm and of course Toolroom Trax, it’s an outright pleasure to have them return for their debut single release on the governing Toolroom Records this spring.

‘Nighthawk’ is an all-consuming tech house affair packed with deep grooves, guitar and synth licks and a dimly lit vocal performance, creating a delicately atmospheric personality within the track. Mat.Joe wholly boast their signature warm-yet-rough sound pallet and once again show us why their tracks are in such high demand. 

The release is graced by a stunning re-work from Dosem who twists up the original elements and creates a dark roller that’s crafted to perfection.

Since arriving on the scene in 2012, Bontan has seen an impressive rise that’s gained serious attention from big names such as Pete Tong, Annie Mac and Carl Cox.

A long time friend and collaborator of Josh Butler, Bontan soared to atmospheric heights in 2013 as his remix of ‘Got A Feeling’ became the biggest selling remix of the year on Beatport. Fast forward three years and the house producer has shown no signs of stopping, with releases on Toolroom, Circus, Suara and Noir alongside appearances at some of the UK’s most iconic clubs and festivals, plus peak time Ibiza sets across Amnesia, Sankeys and Vista Club last summer.

Now, Bontan makes a return to Kerri Chandler’s MadTech Records with two energy fuelled productions on his ‘Rewind EP’, with fellow Brits Jhōnsson and Ralph Lawson also stepping in on remix duties. Today's exclusive premiere is the EPs title track, which kicks things off with a selection of sharp shuffling hats, kicks and interjecting sirens amongst a bubbling and engaging groove.

"Rewind" is available 6 May on Madtech Records

Tracklist
A1. Wbeeza – Bodyman
A2. Jamie Trench – Oil Spill
B1. Ingi Visions – Nauyaca
B2. Liam Geddes – Reach Out
C1. New Jack City – Pick Me up 
C2. Mak & Pasteman – U Said
D1. Am Unit – Bang Dat
D2. Oli Furness – Broken Summers

Music is Love Records has become somewhat of an institute since its conception nearly 5 years ago and one of the talking points on their release schedule is always the LOVEBOX VA, well we are in luck as they introduce the 3rd in the series. Lets dive into it.

Opening up on A1 is an artist of supreme integrity and killer beats, Wbezza. His track ‘Bodyman” is a lushious adventure through sonic soundscapes and jazzy beats, a perfect opener. A2 sees label regular Jamie Trench and his off kilter track ‘Oil Spill’, alittle different from his usual sound here he pieces together a quirky but dam funky track.

As we flip the record the quality doesn’t dip as the dutch brothers Samuel Deep & Julian Alexander under their “Ingi Visions” Moniker unleash “Nauyaca”. A deep and funky trip with heavy sub action made for the floor. B2 is Liam Geddes, fresh from dropping 4 bombs on MIL014 its no secret we rate him massively, well he’s back to his old tricks on ‘Reach Out’ and we love it.

Vinyl number 2 brings us yet more goodness and C1 bring back old favourites New Jack City. The brothers dropped Mil001 and nearly 5 years later are still bringing the heat with their track “Pick Me Up”. That NJC sound they do so so well. C2 welcomes new blood to the label in the shape of two incredible  artists we love Mak & Pasteman, their track “U Said” is a hazy deep house roller that oozes class. Expect to hear more from these guys in 2017 on MIL

As we flip the final record we see more new blood on D1 and the track “Bang Dat” from German duo “AM UNIT”. A dreamy hook combined in perfect harmony with a unrelenting drum track makes for some serious dance floor fodder. The final track is from label boss Oli Furness who ends this solid selection of tracks with his track “Broken Summers” a heavy dose of distorted euphoric breakbeat vital for those ‘taps aff’ moments.

As usual the Lovebox consists of 8 high grade tracks pressed over 2 vinyl, lovingly wrapped up in a gatefold sleeve covered in the familiar donut print and is out on the 11th November.

MIL015: LOVEBOX 003 VA ( double vinyl // gatefold sleeve ) OUT NOW

The delights of the universe were captivating to the naked eye. To be able to witness a galaxy in all its glory for the first time was a spektral wonder, a wacky wave, a release of light and the dawn of a new age. Stars flew overhead, they rocketed between the planets, glimmering brightly in the midst of the enchanting darkness. Space was a beautiful place, if only we had always known that we were not in fact limited to the confines of our tiny planet. If only we had known, we could always fly. 

How many 'e's can you fit in one name? I swear, everytime we receive a new track of promo featuring the illustrious Wbeeza he has snuck another one in there without us noticing. At least that's what the press release said, we've opted to go with two, I think that's right? He appears on the latest compilation from the Music Is Love Family alongside the likes of Mak & Pasteman and New Jack City.

PREMIERE: Wbeeza - Bodyman [Music Is Love]

2. Otik - Rasputin (Original mix)
3. Otik - Deep Red (Erosion Flow Remix)
4. Otik - Rasputin (Mak & Pasteman Remix)

The year 2016 cemented DEXT’s position in the boxes of discernible DJs around the globe, by putting out a string of material from the likes of Hodge, Bodyjack, Mella Dee, Endian, Lo Shea and Callahan. 

We kick off 2017 with a bang with a killer 12” from the fast rising Otik. Hailing from Bristol by way of London, he has steadily been building an artillery of heavy club hitters on labels including 17 Steps, Push & Run, Infinite Machine, and Durkle Disco, plus remixes for the likes of Dusky, Rosie Lowe and Pixelord, It's clear to see his ascension is moving at a strong pace and we are proud to be able to drop this for you

We won’t say much about this EP other than it fuses everything we love here at DEXT: hard hitting funky drum programming, super heavy sub basses and shades of rave, house and techno. Backed  with two remixes one from talented newcomer Erosion Flow who has released on Martyn’s 3024 label in 2016 and another mix from UK artists who are synonymous with writing club bangers Mak & Pasteman.
