@come-in-3 - Tramal

Clad inaugurates Grid Records, summoning an album compilation from close friends and affiliates, half French, half internationals. 'Improvisations' allows twelve different producers to explore and create in different directions that they're not typically known for.

Featuring E-Unity, Kevin Murf, C.Coiffure, NRLSD, Doline, MISH, Lastrack, Théo Muller, Solotape, Realitycheck, EXCPT and Troy Gunner, the record establishes a tweaked-out relationship with improvisational sound-design from the outset and throughout. Themes of hypnotism and experimental club-focused excursions are entrenched within the framework, with deadly blows of percussion, and stereo-imaging coexisting in a gorgeous realm of love-injected artistic expression.

A lot of music in the current climate can seem to be executed by overthinking and overpolishing. However, 'Improvisations' turns this on its head, providing a beautifully human feel across twelve, unique excerpts.

Tracklist:
1. E-Unity - Diva Encounter
2. Kevin Murf - Tramal
3. C. Coiffure - Tongue Tied
4. NRLSD - He Got Game
5. Doline - Mélastique
6. MISH - Skunked
7. Lastrack - Yamouriddim
8. Théo Muller - Sea Spirits Calling
9. Solotape - Microflux
10. Realitycheck - Unity
11. EXCPT - Place For Your Ads
12. Troy Gunner - The Way You Went Away

There have been few moments Happa (@halfapersianprinceand) hasn't been deserving of your full attention, from his early moments of fame as one of the UK's hottest young techno acts and producing for Grime MC Trim's album, to the smattering of much-talked-about drops on Whities' Blue sublabel or the two hilarious yet weirdly excellent rework albums via his PT/5 Records.

Explorations In Music For Dancing: Vol. 2 

Happa - Fever [PT/5 Records]

Concentration had become a thing of the past; he felt disconnected from the world around him, unable to communicate with those closest to him. It wasn't sudden, this gradual decline had begun too long ago to remember, but recently things had worsened. Every day he felt further and further and further away...

Following releases for Edited Arts and Hi-NRG, Sheffield producer diessa touches down for a two-tracker on London's All Centre, backed by a remix from NYC-based Sobolik. There's revving percussion and heavy subs a plenty across both tracks; title track 'fuck me' marries a half-time groove with haunting vocals and crisp hihats, while 'further and further and further and further and' is carried by a hypnotising rhythm smothered in dub atmospheres and whirring sirens.

East London's most forward-thinking record label is soon to release Nervous Horizon Vol. 4, the latest addition to their notorious various artists compilation series.

Known for bringing together regional club sounds from all around the world, this time label heads TSVI & Wallwork focus on dancehall influenced instrumentals but also throw fast paced percussive club works in the mix.

Nervous Horizon's core members DJ Plead, Ehua, DJ JM, SIM & Seven Orbits are all back with killer dubs and Vol. 4 also sees the introduction of some brand new signees: Montreal based Mexican producer Ultima Esuna, Bristol's rising star Josi Devil and congolese Nyege Nyege affiliate Chrisman. Techno prodigies Happa and Aquarian make their debut appearance on the label as well with compositions that blend intricate sound design with explosive low end.

Opening at 90 BPM and ending at nearly 160BPM, Nervous Horizon Vol. 4 is definitely going to be one of the most effective tools on the dance floor this season!

Just two years on from its inception, Kindergarten Records reaches its tenth release. Who better then, to celebrate this anniversary, than Drummy. The NYC-based producer was the first to release alongside Sha Ru on the label back in May 2020, and the intricate chaos of his production work is emblematic of the label’s commitment to maximum propulsion on the dancefloor. With Double Stop, Drummy dials up the energy while delving into a deep, dark sound palette. The EP heaves and crashes throughout, playing with texture with a maximalist approach.

“I wanted to see if I could push my usage of the stereo field while keeping things buoyant and danceable with forward motion” explains Drummy of Double Stop. Much like Kindergarten’s previous output he surfs that kinetic energy to the edge of overwhelming the listener. In that space where he stops short, Drummy conjures an alchemical potency ready to invigorate any adventurous dancefloor.

Sha Ru - Hear The Smell [SRVA01]

The concept of music designed specifically for Airports was pioneered by Brian Eno in the 70s and has since come to be known generically by the term Ambient. The connotations that this term carries are those particularly associated with the kind of material that Brian Eno produced - familiar tunes arranged and orchestrated in a lightweight and derivative manner. Understandably, this has led most discerning listeners (and most composers) to dismiss entirely the concept of ambient music as an idea worthy of attention.

Airpods are defined as a mood, or an inherent influence: a tint. My intention is to produce original pieces ostensibly (but not exclusively) for these particular headphones with a view to building up a small but versatile catalogue of music suited to a wide variety of moods and atmospheres.

Whereas the extant music labels proceed from the basis of regularizing environments and headphones by blanketing their acoustic and atmospheric idiosyncracies, Music for Airpods is intended to enhance these. Whereas conventional music is designed to strip away all sense of doubt and uncertainty (and thus all genuine interest) , Airpod Music retains these qualities. And whereas their intention is to `brighten' the sound by adding stimulus to it (thus supposedly alleviating the tedium of routine tasks and levelling out the natural ups and downs of the body rhythms) Airpod Music is intended to induce calm, a space to think and Euphoria at the same damn time.
