Various Aliens / Fifth Contact – 5th Anniversary

To celebrate the fifth anniversary of our label, we present Various Aliens / Fifth Contact, a unique compilation that brings together collaborations between the founder and 15 artists from different corners of the world.

The name plays with the idea of “VA” (Various Artists), transformed into “Various Aliens” as a metaphor for that creative diversity that seems to come from other dimensions.

Fifth Contact refers both to the number 5 of our anniversary and, at the same time, evokes the notion of an extraterrestrial encounter beyond imagination: a connection that transcends borders, styles, and languages—a cosmic meeting through music.

The result is a sonic journey of abstract textures, dark minimalism, and interplanetary energy that reflects the essence of the label and its global network of collaborators.

Celestial electronics are always at the heart of James Welsh’s music, via a number releases for labels such as Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound, Wolf Music and Hypercolour.  “Hammers” is Welsh’s second release for Futureboogie (following 2013’s “Craven” EP), and finds the UK based producer on particular fine form.

With its airy pads and shrouded ambience, “Hammers” drives a 303 bass line right through its centre, perfectly balancing the tracks emotive and darker sides.

Hodge (Livity Sound/Hemlock) comes on board with an industrial sized remix, carving out some heavyweight tribal drums and additional percussion and letting the acid do its tweakable thing.

“Denergy” meanwhile channels some electro tinged bassline moves over super funky, tight drums, a flourishing acid line, and laced with the futurism and sound aesthetics that’s keeping James Welsh at the top of his game.

This Is Our Time is thrilled to announce its first international artist, Perdu from Amsterdam.
On his EP called 'Finding Life on Planet Rash' he launches us up to the stars with 'Sun Of Nahar' starting this mission with italo-propulsion. This sends us to a stratosphere high trajectory and lands us on 'Equalizing The Truth', an elusive jam with a toned-down bassline and otherworldly soundscapes. The triumphant cosmic house called 'Changing Worlds' leads the way on the B-side with rolling chimes and tribal-y percussion and our dancefloor exploration ends with 'Wrong Perception' a subtle and delicate track which is the deepest of all so it gives the space and time to just reflect. 
We were on board the first time we listened to these tracks so buy a ticket for the ride!

Berlin based producers and DJs, LONGHAIR returns with a brand new EP  ‘HEATWAVE’ 
 
Claptrap’s first release of 2020 comes from Longhair, a Berlin based project formed of two Renate residents Marko Pelaic (Homeboy) & Bene Bogenberger (1/2 of Peak & Swift). The release follows on from their 12" on Renate Schallplatten last year, alongside a previous EP for Bordello A Parigi and remixes for PBR Streetgang’s new imprint. 
 
The Heatwave EP features 3 floor-ready original tracks plus a remix of the title track by Johannes Albert (Frank Music, Fine). The title track ‘Heatwave’ gets things off to a dreamy start with lush pads and a tight rolling tropical percussion. A2 '80s Haircut' follows up with a thumping four to the floor groove and hypnotic bass line to keep the floor packed. Johannes Albert’s take on Heatwave heads up side 2, turning the dreamy vibe into a more upfront euphoric prime-time house stomper. The final cut ‘Pizzamouse' a more relaxed slice of melodic house sees the release out in style with dancing rubbery synth lines which is sure to get those feet moving.

PREMIERE : Longhair - Heatwave

The electricity buzzed as it raced through the wire. It was the undercurrent of the city, the heartbeat of this place and the only thing which shone upon the dark and gloomy streets. The high line connected the people together, they held different views but were linked by the bubbling electricity which kept their homes warm and their lives entertained. Inside each room was a different story, a different character and a life. The towerblocks were full of people who declared differences yet lived the same. This was earth. 

Northworks is a mysterious unknown from the UK, an isolated figure who is set to release a new EP on Marlon Hoffstadt's record label Savour the Moment. The EP is a well packaged assortment of deep danceable material and is a promising showcase of talent from a new found source.

Production duo Denny Pally emerge from the depths of Glasgow's East End with their debut EP 'Us Against The World' on Crash Reserve's brand new sister label Infinite Wisdom.

'Us Against The World' represents a collection of lost and found Dennistoun studio jams circa 2018.

With the aid of modern P2P protocol, Denny Pally purposefully restored a mix of House, Boogie and Techno influenced jams in a foolhardy display of 'Jack of all trades, Master of none'.

Hacking through the undergrowth and forgotten subdirectories we reclaim these treasures and present them to the new world.
