The Lagaffe boys have a special one for you. Lagaffe 10 marks the 10th EP in our vinyl series and serves as a perfect way to end our 10th year in existence. To mark this occasion we are releasing a 4 tracker with our founders and label regulars. 

The EP opens up with Cohen Social Club by Flexi Leifs aka Felix Leifur. Our man Felix lost his drum machines last spring but luckily he found a guitar and some drums. The track starts off with suspicious sounding guitar notes that somehow up as pure beauty, giving hope in the darkest of places. Frodo with the ring stuff, if you know what I mean. Playful reverbs and echos give the tune the classic Felix Leifur feel to it! 

Moff & Tarkin has the next track "Pure Fury", some breakbeats and cheesy disco vocals, why change a winning recipe? 

Next up is "We are not alone " by label boss Jonbjörn. I think this is what Elton John meant when he said "thank god for those electro bangers!" Solid 909 drum work featuring dramatic chords and some original vocal work. If you can spot the sample write us on Soundcloud and you might win a year's worth of LaCafe Tales! 

With "Að handan" Viktor Birgiss comes back to the label in style. Our mastering engineer described it as having the loudest kickdrum in history, imagine that! Lo fi dub sounding drums interlaced with atmospheric chords, made for those late night intimate moments on the dancefloor, again Frodo with the ring stuff, if you know what I mean.

Ari Bald (not to be confused with Hairy Bald, Ari Baldursson or Garibaldi) is an esteemed music producer and record collector from the ‘Venice Of The North’.

Usually, you’ll hear Ari playing his own music that is way more up-tempo and energy driven — or dance music in it’s broadest shape or forms.

But in the exclusive and rare setting of Nitty Gritty, Ari brought the sounds from his collection that rarely sees daylight (or night time) in his usual sets.

So kick back and relax to a smoother and laidback version of Ari Bald.

Here, Jerome shares a mix comprising current favorites and some absolute classics sprinkled with a few of his label's joints here and there. He dedicates this mix  to Geraldine Hunt, Kenny Gino (Solid Gold Playaz) & Benji Espinoza (DJ International) -  all gone too soon but not forgotten.

International Tribe is a weekly mix series hosted by Thris Tian.

This week’s International Tribe mix comes from London based record label Valby Rotary.

After developing their craft whilst studying in Leeds, Tom VR & Louf decided to start the imprint as an output for their own productions. After releasing their own music for the first three EPs, they expanded their roster to include like-minded producers, Jeigo and Mryn. Tom VR & Louf's tracks have gained support from many well-regarded DJs such as Midland, Gilles Peterson & George Fitzgerald.

The label aims to release left-field club-focused tracks with emotive elements. Their DJing follows a similar ethos, and this can be heard in their International Tribe mix.

Good news! Pacific Rhythm is once again connecting game with one of Toronto's most promising young duos, Active Surplus. Active Surplus is the collaborative project from Evan Vincent (AKA Emissive) and Ian Syrett, who also appear on this past winter's fourth volume of Rhythms Of The Pacific.

Their new self-titled EP is their love letter to the house music sound that first sprouted from the West Coast. It's laid-back, groovy and touched with lovely instrumentation. There's a confident, naturalistic quality to the rippling grooves and silky sounds of 'One Beyond', which the duo credit to an obsession with water. After all, in their words, "we might not live by the ocean, but we're all H20 on the inside."
