[GLUM2]
Setting course into further unexplored territory, a form of no-man’s-land between the smattering dancefloors of 2020 and a dark echo of a post-rock informed 1980s.

Portuguese producer Toada returns to his Plūma Records imprint this November to deliver his debut long-player entitled ‘Cambiante’.

Intended mainly to be a live act deploying emotional melodies combined with playful rhythms, Toada continues to provide a unique musical venture taking influence between Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Berlin-based Portuguese producer who started producing under his alias in 2015 picks up on the experiences that led to the formation of 'Airosa Melanina' EP earlier this year which garnered support from the likes of Damian Harris, John Digweed, Duckett and more. Toada’s 'Cambiante' album which translates to ‘gradual transformation’ was produced with the intention to express a hopeful change on humanity seeing him grace some of his most pacifying productions to date.

‘Cambiante continues as a reflection on human diversity - a statement against oversimplified categories and stereotypes. It's an ode to the variety of colours, shapes and characteristics imprinted in each individual.’ – Toada

‘Nuance’ kicks things off with beautiful, emotive leads balanced with warm, spaced-out vibrations before making room for ‘Vendaval’ and ‘Fervor’ that together deploy euphoric pads underneath weaving modulations and organic, fluttering percussion. ‘Adelina’ and ‘A Matriarca’ both maintain the healing atmospheres as the tranquilising notes harmonise gracefully with invigorating feelings throughout.

Wavering bleeps, breezy pads and syncopated chugging rhythms take the focus in ‘Gestos Do Sul’ while ‘Matiz’ keeps things flowing with fluid melodies gracefully fused with mesmerising low frequencies and trancing synths used for calming, mystical excursions. ‘Diversa’ offers up a minute-long soundscape filled with uplifting, oscillating bursts before ‘Mosaico’ rounds off the inspiring album with gentle modular synthesis, shimmering sonics and alleviating vocals in distance.

Toada ‘Cambiante’ is out on Plūma Records on 15th November 2019.

PREMIERE: Toada - A Matriarca [Plüma Records]

Cesar Urbina makes a comeback via Ideal Europa under his Cubenx alias. Three tracks form this release, making use of his texturized sound which have been a common thread throughout his past releases. 

Percussions are at the center this time, opting for simple, yet shifting patterns of quasi-breaks on “Bliss”, which will serve the more adventurous DJ’s by providing a solid, pulsing groove. The producer’s stamp can be heard on the lead harp melodies which bring warmer places to mind. 

The second title “Hercynia” evokes the ancient pan-european forest via the delivery of dry, gated percussions followed by a more spaced out, cosmic chord progression. The heavier Arabic music-inspired pattern of “Obsidian” found its first audiences via Mutek MX back in November 2018, in the form of a live jam. The recording was then edited to fit the format.

By this point it's fairly obvious that @NinaLasVegas and @SwickSwick are trusty collaborators who thrive both together and via their solo ventures. So when this one landed in our inbox with an unexpected (yet wholly appreciated) vocal feature weaved in for good measure, we just knew we'd dig it.

Previously Nina and Swick have worked together on tracks ('Lucky Girl', 'Hydration') that showcased the width and breadth of their palettes in free-flowing, connective and club-ready ways. And here on 'Tananaram', the sunshine evoking cut (with the sunshine evoking artwork) they mesh their powers as a pair with inimitable Sao Paolo star MC Bin Laden (@mcbinladenofficial).

While his signature drawl and playfulness are front and centre, it's refreshing to hear MC Bin Laden take on an instrumental a little removed from his usual funk proibidão style. Removed, we should add, but every bit as hard-hitting.

@NLVRecords will release 'Tananaram' on December 13. Pre-save below.

Bastard Jazz is proud to present the brand new album 'Th3rd" from Fukoka, Japan based producer Brisa. Having been co-signed by the likes of Gilles Peterson, Lefto, Danny Krivit, Toshio Matsuura and more,his production is forward thinking, hard to pin down electronic music for the headphones and the dancefloor. The album leads off with "Cloudnine" with it's heavy drums, synth stabs,analog bassline, swirling vocoder bits and ghostly voices drifting in and out, while album single "Behind The Veil" is on first listen evocative of a grittier Floating Points but invokes Footwork vibes, jazz keys, strings and female R&B vocal snippits. "New Way" moves into deeper and atmospheric acid house territories, while "DLMD" brings in elements of funk & soul through it's relentless percussion break and Rhodes interludes. All in all on "Th3rd" Brisa has created an intricate, well thought out world where genre remains submissive to style - whether it's downtempo, deep house, drum'n'bass, or lo-fi beats the sound remains uniquely his own. 

Fukuoka based DJ and Producer, BRISA started his career in 1997 influenced by Acid Jazz and House music and began producing in 2004 and has been releasing worldwide in the UK, US, Germany, France and Italy garnering Kudos from the likes Jazzanova, Danny Krivit, Joe Claussell, DJ Yellow, Tom Middleton, Gilles Peterson, Lefto to just name a few.

BRISA released his debut album ‘Elevation Perception’ on Geneon Entertainment, with cross-genre collaborations with Monday Michiru and Paul Randolph and more. After a huge success on his debut release - he played at the massive ‘Tokyo Crossover Jazz Festival’ in 2012 and then had a string of releases on renowned labels like Jazzy Sport, Reverse, Best Of Records which received great supports from Lefto, Simbad, Kev Beadle, Kyoto Jazz Massive, Toshio Matsuura, Cosmopolyphonic and more. 

Currently he runs the party ‘NXTDOOR’ in Tokyo
