FSL015 - Glimmerman - Temple Sublet (Clips) - OUT NOW

REES is a producer and DJ based in the north of of England, Middlesborough to be precise. His tastes are rooted in the darker side of electronic music, drawn towards Acid, Electro and EBM making for a mean and eclectic selector in the booth. As the co founder of Magic Ritmo, he has been responsible for the release and re-release of eclectic leftfield cuts from the likes of Adel Dhibi and G.F.X having sought to breathe life back into highly sought after material.

This in and of itself demonstrates a keen sensibility to dig for records and establish a sense of sound.

His recent release came on our good friend and crew member Rosie’s label Human Endeavour and it’s firmly rooted in the sound of chug.

We invited REES to show us what he’s all about as he steps up with a killer mix of heavy hitting sounds which will work wonderfully in dark, sweaty rooms.

REES: The 'Shine A Light On' Mix

The rooms were empty, each one sprawled out one after the other as they wandered between the vast corridors casting glances down hallways and into chambers. This place was magical, a temple of paradise in which wild things had happened and great kings and princes had reigned.

Who knew what fabled lore had been spoken of between these walls. The parties, the dances and the moments shared.

Now it sat empty, a temple for sublet, empty and waiting for the highest bidder.

Yet they never bid.

Glimmerman returns to First Second Label with a belter of an EP. One for the bass heads and the basement movers and shakers.

GLIMMERMAN  20.8.24

Off The Record returns with its semi-centennial mix from Dublin born, London residing guitarist, producer and DJ Glimmerman. 
Real name Ethan Begley Hughes, Glimmerman has found himself as a producer following two paths as of late. Firstly his three large sounding 2-step 12"s on Dublin's First Second Label as well being featured on EMA's powerhouse Woozy imprint compilations. Or secondly finding him taking centre stage as the lead guitarist in his most recent venture: post-rock band Better Living. Listening to his latest release "Temple Sublet" it definitely feels like these two crossroads meet somewhere in the middle (not to mention the excellent track featuring London wordsmith Old Brother). Aside from all of that Hughes has been known to be a solid pair of hands behind the ones and twos having this year alone taken to Berlin's Paloma as well as touching down in the usual London hotspots MOT, Avalon Cafe and Ormside projects. For this mix Glimmerman ventures into more techno inspired roots as well as letting rip with some guitar related influences while still showcasing his knowledge bassy and D&B sounds and of course all harmoniously mixed to perfection.

This month I've got the fastest star pilot in the galaxy, Baliboc in for a Baeblade shift. After a massive set with Gemma Dunleavey at Comfort Carnival Baliboc has delivered a cool 46 minutes and 38 seconds of pure Kessel Run. Same as last time I'll be wheeling it for the first 45 followed by a short introduction from our fan favourite host CHROMEO ROMEO!This one was a lot of fun to put together so hold onto your parsecs kid! Let it rip?!?!?
