DJ, producer, promoter, composer, and cultural agitator Man Power makes his debut on Radio Slave’s Rekids with ‘We Trawl The Hurts’ featuring Louisahhh on 12th April. The first fruits of a long-term friendship see Man Power (Me Me Me/Throne of Blood/Optimo) serving up a stomping, big-room cut that tips its hat to late-90s NY house and serves as a bed for the inimitable Louisahhh’s (RAAR) breathy vocal delivery of classic Prefab Sprout lyrics.

“I realised that I never set out to make a "Banger", so I started sharing daily WIPs on Twitter/X of me attempting to do so, with notes on why I'd made certain decisions or changed certain things. The results were a shock and it felt like I'd managed to do what I set out to do, but I felt it needed an additional element. I've wanted to do something with Louisahhh for forever and the idea of asking her to cover that as a vocal element just arrived in my head fully formed. It's one of the few occasions making music where I've had an idea and the execution has turned out exactly as it was in my head when I first thought of it” - Man Power

An intimate, spoken-word vocal from Louisahh weaves through a world of vibrant pads and chords. The gorgeous lyricism of their ‘We Trawl The Hurts’ is underpinned by an uplifting and emotive swirl of melody and a rock-steady beat. Man Power’s love of Murk and Tenaglia shines through.

The evergreen Deetron delivers three versions of ‘We Trawl The Hurt’s ft Louisahhh’: a remix that flips the original into a thumping deep techno cut featuring loopy synths and pixelated leads, a stripped-back and powerful dub, and his DJ tool ‘drum and bass’, built for those who like to mix.

Abstrack Records est de retour avec un nouvel EP qui fait la part belle aux instruments et à ceux qui en jouent. La formation angevine Auroboros, émanant de Freaks Pop, organisation historiquement sœur d’Abstrack nous offre vingt minutes d’un jam rock, progressif et cos- mique.
«Camel» semble comme une longue poursuite, une progression vers un point de fuite qui se dérobe. L’inexorable accélération du tempo et la montée en puissance des instruments semblent nous mener vers un paroxysme inimaginable.

A la faveur d’un break où tout est étrangement plus rapide et calme à la fois, on aperçoit cet horizon, on croit même l’atteindre quelques instants, les percussions s’évanouissant. Mais l’ascension reprend et la transe n’est pas négociable. Le flot puissant des énergies instrumen- tales emporte avec lui les immobiles et les sceptiques.

Sur la face B, deux remix très différents complètent le tableau. Romain FX distille l’essence dancefloor de «Camel». Avec une ap- proche cosmique et presque orientale, l’ascension onirique instru- mentale accouche d’un banger de peak time, pur matériel à secouer les jambes à toute heure.
Mytron nous offre un remix plus joueur et trippé. Sept minutes d’une vibe qui semble dériver et prendre à contre pied, sans jamais rompre le groove installé patiemment, avec tribalité et presque avec humour.

First released by Cazzo Film in 2001, ebo hill’s ‘Bonking Berlin Bastards’ has long achieved the status of an underground porn classic. Like the films of fellow Cazzo director Bruce LaBruce, hill’s vision was both ahead of its time and a playful distillation of 90s and early-2000s Berlin, following a group of squatters and punks as they fuck, party and stumble their way through the city at the turn of the millennium. Original soundtrack composed by AeoX and Rouage aka CNM.
