Panthera Krause joins the Lobster Theremin stable with a mid-summer trip into the heart of the sun. Drawing on a plethora of classic house influences, Krause weaves these into a style which is a at once recognisable yet uniquely his own, production-wise drawing as much from the MPC-led West Coast beat scene as the European house approach. 

'Rules' kicks off the EP with a serious throwing of the gauntlet.. A slightly shuffled beat being quickly overtaken by a groove-hefty wandering bassline that bobs it's way around a melodic 8-bar refrain, suddenly smothered and smudged by the glowing warmth of sun-tinged pads. Pure summer analogue headiness distilled into 6 minutes of terrace-slaying bliss. 

On the flip, 'Rewo' takes a dusty shakin' drum pattern and filters a cut-throat sampled 'n' filtered piano stab into the mix. All seemingly harmless until the gargantuan sub bass comes rumbling into the fray. Solid lobster pool-party action on a 5* LA hotel rooftop. 

Closing out the EP, and moving things into edits-y territory, is 'Them Flutes'. Although debatable whether there are actually discernible flutes in the track, the final number is built around a looping proto-disco element that steadily evolves while shoving a cattle-prod to the hips when those periodic chords hit.

The EEE EP is the all fresh debut from Ensam, local vandal and core member of Solkyss. Born and raised troublemaker, he dropped out of school to make his way in to music. Luckily he could spend his days hiding in his fathers basement which resulted in his project progressing secretly over the years granting him a distinct cinematic groove with deep and atmospheric aesthetics.

Taken from a new @urulu EP on @voyage-recordings. A track made for dancing in the great outdoors, opening with sparse percussion, cicadas and bird song, before the warm familiar embrace of a kick drum and wandering bassline.

For the latest release on Rob da Bank’s dance focussed imprint Silver Bear Recordings, longtime collaborators Krywald & Farrer have turned in a three track EP. The Percolate residents are well respected across London for their exemplary skills behind the decks, and the wonderfully titled ‘Top Pocket Persies’ EP is evidence their talent also extends to the studio. Today we premiere the lead track, ‘Spoon Billed Sandpiper’.

‘Spoon Billed Sandpiper’ is testament to the duo’s keen understanding of songwriting. The song begins with a meditative drum pattern, which grows more propulsive as pads begin to swirl around it. An early breakdown is accompanied by a heart torn vocal sample before the beat comes back in, sounding even more frenetic to ensure to send the floor into raptures.

Release Date: 04/03/2016

Spring is in the air and with it comes fresh collaborations in the form of the album ‘Industrie & Zärtlichkeit’ (which translates into “Industry & Tenderness“) by Berlin-based duo, Moon. Consisting of @JohannesAlbert and Johannes Paluka (@IronCurtis), it’s a splicing of styles that takes the listener through journeys of ambient, funk, electro, deep house and beyond. Released through Mr. Albert’s own imprint Frank Music, this double 12” is an ambitious collection of tracks, debuting on the heels of a few EPs teased out over the past couple years.

This week, we present ‘Proto’, a stand out, groovy theme song to the record. Coming in hot from the beginning, the track opens up with an 808 electro funk-fueled two-step kick complete with forward driving closed hats and snappy claps. As the track progresses, brooding organ chords lay a haunting foundation for a delightfully detuned melody, weaving in and out of the forefront. The poly-rhythmic feel to the song is perfect for early exercises in getting the listener (or dancer) loose and limber for faster excursions ahead.

Altogether, in ‘Industrie & Zärtlichkeit,’ Albert and Paluka go in wholeheartedly, wearing their influences on their sleeves. Whether it’s Kraftwerk or Bambaataa, they’ve teased out these retro elements and classic sounds, melding them with new techniques, creating club-ready tunes for the present-day dance floor. All in all, an exciting new partnership between these German producers has led to refreshing new material, just in time for warmer climes.

A little gift for my friends .... Many moons ago, (around 4 years in fact) I worked on a track that would its way around the globe to the hands of Orlando Voorn.
