Berlin duo crouds are back with their second release on Molten Moods. Being ardent gear lovers and live performers Johann and Andi crafted an EP of four diverse but implicitly interrelated tracks. “Switchblade” is a slick and modern statement of dance music that draws its influences from Techno and UK Bass alike. crouds are co-founders of the Sonic Ground collective that hosted many events at Berlin clubs such as Arkaoder, Griessmühle or Mensch Meier, while also running the podcast series “Technostilleben” with guests like Robert Henke or Elisabeth Steffen from ://about blank.

This is an unofficial tribute to my favorite dance track of all time: Peverelist - Dance Til The Police Come
https://peverelist.bandcamp.com/album/dance-til-the-police-come

As I was experimenting with the M4L device Opal by Fors (highly recommended) I made this bell type sound that kept reminding me of Pev's signature sound. I kept adding more elements to the project, one thing led to another and I decided to fully embrace the clear similarity between what I was making and Pev's track.

Disclaimer: my track is not a 1:1 cover/rework since it wouldn't be that much fun for me to make and my ''version'' ended up being less percussive and a lot more reverb-y.

Also, half the track is created with Opal, hence the title.

[TDOA003] bonebrokk - Dance Til The Opal Comes

Artist  @silveroctober
Label  @kulture-lab-radio

As part of Kulture Lab's new monthly EP series, Silver October presents tracks in her "Athoth" EP, equally fit for the basement raves she DJs, as well as the ballroom runways that inspired the project. Bringing together samples and drum sequences from every corner of electronic music, Silver puts dance floors over all else on her newest rave project. 

"the VeryNext Day," originally a loose demo for Silver's previous mixtape "HOLD THIS CLOSE," is now a polished, lightning-fast raggajungle track. Its unique catchiness comes from sampled reggae vocals and co-production by rave producer Haiipara. Named after its infectious lead vocal hook, "the VeryNext Day" combines high-energy beats with a nod to classic reggae, making it a standout piece in Silver's evolving discography.

PREMIERE: Silver October - the VeryNext Day {KULTURE LAB}

Patrúin mark their long awaited return with Wastee, from Wastefellow. A trio of marble-cut dance tracks etched out of wonky bass-driven styles on the label’s first release since 2020.

Diolmhain Ingram Roche enjoys a cult-like status within Ireland’s underground. A polymath of electronic music, he’s primarily known for releasing experimental pop as Wastefellow and subsequent affiliation with Kojaque’s Soft Boy Records. In recent years, he’s led the no-nonsense band, Really Good Time and toured with them throughout the UK, EU and Ireland.

Amidst all this, Wastee has been Diolmhain’s guilty pleasure, a lesser-known project dedicated to strict dancefloor business. He debuted the alias with the 2017 ‘Cola’ EP on Lyxliv, which garnered attention from Vice, DJmag, and Apple Music. Wastee reappeared on the P.U.P. Volume 1 compilation in 2021.

After a two-year break from electronic music, Diolmhain returns, integrating the Wastee alias into his main project and creating his most substantial offering of club cuts yet. The final Wastee release, but the first of many more for Wastefellow, this marks his first outing with the cult Dublin label Patrúin, co-founded by Oli and Fes in 2017, which has been notably absent from release schedules since 2020 until now.

‘Haunt You Back’ shuffles its breaks-y deck amongst some angled drums and sprightly croons, temporarily loosening its grip to deal a dialled-up signal that bursts into pop-a-delic techno delirium. ‘Squished Activity’ swirls amongst the claps before nose diving into a sub-heavy broken beat undergrowth that blossoms into a divine club strut of heads-down attitude. Our finale is ‘Your One To Me’, a large chromatic 2 stepper that boasts anthemic vocal cuts and monolithic production chops for a large-and-in-charge closer.

Wastee is a vital extension of both Wastefellow’s musical being and Patruin’s label legacy, 3 exquisite dance tracks from a true talent and a welcome return for the imprint.

50% of profits from the release will be donated to Medical Aid for Palestinians.
