TEA TIME

We’re really committing to the label thing now (it’s really hard) and are pleased as a possum to present a 6 track release from London-based artist jung latch 

Following on from the pensive ambience of his last release, jung latch’s upcoming ‘len sen’ EP marks a foray into dystopic club territory heightened a sense of controlled chaos. Hypnogogic textures clash with mechanical hellscapes to sonify a technodysphoric wasteland of lost futures invoking an anime Mark Fisher. The sterile posthuman scenery of Batman Beyond, Akira and The Animatrix all serve as an inspiration in creating an atmospheric sense of unease.

On his latest full-length, Low End Activist swerves towards weightless grime and suspended hardcore miniatures to tell a very personal story. The UK-rooted producer continues his habit of zeroing in on a distinct approach for each release, leaving a logical breadcrumb trail of soundsystem science in his wake as he channels decades of bass absorption into 14 atmospheric cuts that prize patience and precision over obvious club functionality.

Municipal Dreams plays out as a semi-autobiographical tour through the Blackbird Leys estate that the Activist grew up on. It’s a lived reflection on inequality and the ripple effect it has in working class communities, using the sonic palette to set the mood and scattering pointed samples throughout to spell out the story.

Nehza Records sharpen their dense catalogue with 'Bolle', a shadowy, pulse-driven expedition from Milan-based producer Yas Reven...Among the standouts, 'Slow Pulse' emerges as a mutant anthem, drenched in dub resonance and kinetic drum interplay. Opening with a Gqom-inflected war cry, Reven lays down a constellation of space-echoed snares, glistening harp motifs and nocturnal jungle field recordings that flicker like jaguar eyes in the mist. It feels like a shape-shifting excursion where Al Wootton’s tectonic sub-science would fuse with the propulsive energy of a backroom percussive ritual - primed for sweat-drenched, leather-clad basements.

London-based imprint Fragment On Machines prepare to release 'Len Sen', the latest offering from label boss Rupert Galea, aka Jung Latch...Our pick from the release, 'Tensa Violet', spirals into Latch’s mechanical delirium. A semi-metallic thrum of disrupted transmissions and celestial harmonics sets the stage, luring the audience into a labyrinth of ghostly resonances and drone-infused echoes. Stretched-out pulses conjures up a polyphony of shape-shifting oscillations - bubbling synths, punctuated by the skeletal remains of filtered breaks.

Leipzig-based record label Altin Village & Mine conjure up their latest otherworldly transmission, an interstellar pilgrimage by Cologne-based production duo Urban Homes, consisting of Benjamin Riedl and Oliver Bersin...'Alien Nation’ plunges into a cosmic vortex of slo-mo rhythms and cerebral hypnosis. Unfolding like a 5-minute after-hours séance, the track sculpts a Balearic ritual - percussions quivering like seismic murmurs beneath a haze of space-dusted synths. Deep-sea echoes ripple through a misty skyline, while a weightless rub-a-dub bassline hums like a mantra, guiding listeners through a star-strewn nebula of ever-mutating frequencies.

Rome-based record label Glacial Movements prepare to unveil the sophomore album from Danish electronic musician Mathias Hammerstrøm, better known as Amphior...‘Under The Stars’ unspools like an icy reverie - layer upon layer of stretched-out synth vapour, subaquatic bass and distorted analog hauntings. As if mapping out the constellations of a lost psyche, the track unearths deep-seated anxieties beneath blood-red skies, pulling the audience into a twilight realm where solitude and the infinite collide.
