PREMIERE: Stogov & Alexey Zhurba - This Is Wisdom [Esquimau]

This Is Wisdom EP
Label - Esquimau
Released - 31st May 2024
BUY FROM - https://esquimaumusique.bandcamp.com/album/this-is-wisdom

With their previous two releases, Esquimau has set the bar high for the release of top-quality house grooves. Stogov and Alexey Zhurba present two tasteful tracks, with Jame Moorefield on remix duty. The headline track, 'This Is Wisdom,' showcases brilliance in sampling manipulation, with noodling melodies maintaining a steady groove beneath stomping drums. Jamie Moorefield's remix flips the script on the original, adding piano and string sections, transforming it into a Chicago house summertime masterpiece. 'I'm Waiting For You' is a rolling and hypnotic house jam, with a bumper that propels the low end forward in the mix, making it warehouse-ready dub.

Mid Level Boss: Bonus Round EP
Label - Shadow Pressings
Released - 28th June 2024
Format - Ltd Vinyl
BUY FROM - https://www.juno.co.uk/products/shadow-pressings-mid-level-boss-bonus-round-ep-vinyl/1024539-01/

Fledgling label Shadow Pressings already made a mark with their debut release in March entitled the Chicago EP, garnering love from Hunee, Terry Farley and Luke Solomon to name a few. Striking while the iron is hot, the label are serving up four more heavyweight club tracks which include acidic edits, crunchy deep house, 808 electro grooves and dusty breakbeats.
Lead track Find A Friend jacks up the perennial classic with 808 rims and toms and additional synths but keeps things loopy and rolling. Holding One Shoe continues with the 808 theme whilst injecting a healthy dose of acid resulting in what sounds like a long lost Yazoo B side filtered through a lysergic lens. Train Of Fools decontextualises a well known acapella making for a deep and techy basement jam which will keep the floor moving and the speaker pumping.
Closing out the EP we have More Music In The Night, which chops up some familiar samples and layers up an 808 electro groove and breakbeats for a fresh take on early 90’s house.

PREMIERE: Unknown Artist - Find A Friend [Shadow Pressings]

V.A. - Waves Vol.1 EP
Label - Sounds of Lava Lava 
Released - 14th June 2024
BUY FROM - https://soundsoflavalava.bandcamp.com/

After an amazing response to an open call for demos last year, Sounds of Lava Lava is proud to present the first edition of its various artists compilation; WAVES.  All five tracks span the vast Electronic genre, from deep and mesmerising grooves to rough and raw dance floor weapons.

Mirko Hecktor kicks off the compilation with Aquaborn; a slow burner laid out over almost 7 minutes where delicate arpeggiated synths bounce alongside soft drums, warm bass lines, wandering keys and chopped vocal samples to create a hypnotising and almost meditative track. Following up is a debut from Scottish producer Lobos.  Hailing from Fife and now a part of Glasgow's thriving music scene, his track 5am Sunrise has an energy and excitement which is reminiscent of early 90’s UK dance records.  Looped synth lines and melodies playfully develop and distort throughout while driving kicks and clean percussion lead through moments of euphoria.

Chris & Reece keep it low and slow with Red Right Hand.  Squelching acid-tinged bass lines weave between thumping drum patterns and gritty piano stabs while Reece’s echoing vocals create an almost tangible atmosphere.

Making a return to Sounds of Lava Lava is Glaswegian duo Pentland Park.  With Never Go Back they take the energy up a level with punchy drums and chest-shaking sub bass tones.  Delicate vocal samples contrast with the sharp percussion, adding a layer of beauty to this raw groove.  Finally Max Raskin closes out the compilation with California Honey.  A true hardware enthusiast, Max combines crunching synth lines, shuffling drum patterns, spiralling keys and reverberating vocal hooks to make a true dance floor heater.

The Spirit Continues EP
Label - Pleasant Systems
Released - 14th June 2024
Format - Vinyl/Digital
BUY FROM - https://tilmans.bandcamp.com/album/the-spirit-continues

Pleasant Systems label head Tilman returns to his own stable with the full length „The Spirit Continues“ for ostensible dancefloor pleasure.
Since 2008, the German producer Tilman has been honing his craft in House music through numerous EP’s on various respected labels and here we see him deliver his fourth long player. Taking influence from 80s NYC proto-garage and Nu Groove’s era of deep house Tilman creates a collection of works which encapsulate the essence of his sound and history with House music over the past two decades, embracing a raw yet dreamy aesthetic throughout.
Across the ten tracks Tilman employs sturdy, jacking rhythm sections, ethereal atmospherics, bumpy bass lines, shimmering chord sequences, infectious vocals and enchanting top lines culminating in somatic ecstasy.

PREMIERE: Mood Tree - 3652 Days [Mole Music]

Digital:  https://detroitswindle.bandcamp.com/album/coffee-in-the-morning-ep
Vinyl  https://detroitswindle.bandcamp.com/album/coffee-in-the-morning-ep

Dam Swindle follow up on last year’s ‘The life behind things’ with some impeccable disco-funk on steroids with ‘Coffee in the morning ft. Jitwam’.  Two originals, a dub mix and a stunning extended remix by Norwegian disco don Prins Thomas.  On this EP Detroit Swindle team up with NYC vocalist Jitwam, whose recent album ‘Honeycomb on Tartelet’ and his live collaboration with Kamaal Williams have shown the world just how talented he really is.

‘Coffee in the morning’ is a funk fueled disco bomb. The energy is set by a rolling bassline with a live touch (thanks to Xander Vrienten) and percussion courtesy of  Mauskovic Dance Band member Chris Bruining. The track bursts into action once Jitwam’s vocals come in, pushing through with full-on slapback delay, which adds nicely to the vintage vibe.  The lyrics are tongue-in-cheek and deal with life’s more pressing matters like all the things you can have alongside your coffee.  The track takes a sharp jazzy turn once the saxophone is introduced (played by UK bred, Amsterdam based jazz dude Finn Peters), moving nicely between catchy riffs and berserk jazz-isms.  Its the full on original that works but if you’re not really into the vocals, there’s a straightforward dub that steers away from the breakfast related insinuations.

 

The a-side also holds the second collaboration, which moves into NY garage territory. Shuffling 909 percussion, live shakers and snares set the vibe along with Jitwam’s vocals directing you to ‘Move out the way!’. The track is bumping, the bassline is thumping and the crowd could very well be… (yes, it rhymes). The energy pitches up a notch once the synth hits come in and it flows up and down nicely into a section where strings, Rhodes and cowbells take over into the breakdown.  On the B-side, Prins Thomas takes you on a 10 minute Scandi-disco trip with live drums and Thomas himself funkin’ on the bass. He makes perfect use of the dreamy elements of the title track, making his version an intimate and provocative dubby disco burner. If you find the energy of the original is too much, this version might just be perfect for you.

Release Text:
theBasement Discos presents its fourth compilation name TALKIN’
GREEN. After other successful VA EP’s (TERRAZA, HORCHATA and BEYOND PAELLA) the Valencia-based label strikes back with 9 tracks that will get everyone in a good vibe and on their feet.

Be ready to explore tracks coming from all four corners of the world. Starting with the French duo Fahy & Sanchez and their track called “Something”, a disco tune with funky electric guitar sounds, perfect for those boogie summer nights. Also from France, Wikett makes his second appearance in theBasement with Jimbo, a pure disco banger with some well-known sampling that probably will ring your bell.

Londoner Donny Rotten shows his best disco side with “Clean Up Duty”, a track with the right upbeat feel and vocals with a speedy-feel to it which makes out of this belter a real dance-floor killer.
Heading to the North American continent we can find Californian DJ and producer At Down delivering a groovy vibe with “What Goes Up, Gets Down”, combining elements of the sound of 80s cosmic disco and modern-day house.

Still on the American continent but now from New York, we have Azuro with “Get Up Larry”, and Pedro Cañas with “Excuse Me”, this time including deeper notes to its tune.
Finally, it is German artist Sam Paradise that makes his attribution to the album with “Extra Boogie Sauce”, serving some melancholic synth melodies combined with really funky guitar riffs.
We also welcome back our hometown producers Whatever Charles with his track Secrets & Spies and Kostrok with Limbo. Two Valencia originated tracks but two different moods, but both with their own homeboy signatures.
All in all, a compilation album worth listening to with an international feel.
