Last year, Jamz Supernova launched a brand new club series via her label, Future Bounce, turning to dancefloor sounds. Kicking off volume 2 of the series is The Busy Twist who first approached the label as part of their competition late 2020 and opened the dialogue to sign him for the next round of releases. Speaking of the collaboration, Jamz says, “we couldn't be happier to kick off vol 2 of the Club series with an esteemed producer such as The Busy Twist! These tracks embody everything we love, perfect for the club but inspired by the African Diaspora, showcasing The Busy Twist at his best!” 

Formerly a duo until 2015, The Busy Twist is headed by DJ and producer Oliver Williams, riding solo. Remaining rather elusive until now, he is ready to make his mark as the mastermind behind the vibrant music offerings they have become so known for. Always looking to join the dots between Afro, Latin and UK Bass, this new EP continues in that vein with an added splash of heads-down rave energy. Oliver aka The Busy Twist says of the records “ I wanted to create something that brings the listener back to the centre of a gig at prime time and recreate that nostalgic feeling of my early releases. I decided to go back to Ghana which was an integral part of the early Busy Twist sound. A visit to the Labadi Warriors and a jam session ended up being the components for “World Of The Spirits.” Already road tested in Jamz’ BBC Radio 1 ‘Essential Mix’, these tracks are primed and ready to be unleashed to the world.

Tokyo-based producer/dj SEIMEI makes his Sorry Records debut with four slamming tracks touching on techno, breaks, robot vocal electro, and party rocking house. Only the second Sorry Records release from a non-US based artist in our nearly ten years of existence, Seimei's Tokyo Funky Breaks EP features a slammin remix from Seimei's brother and fellow young Japanese legend Carpainter in addition to a bonkers Florida Breaks remix from our friend and Baltimore-born, Brooklyn-based club music star JIALING (a.k.a. BIG J).

Co-founder of seminal Japanese dance music collective/label TREKKIE TRAX, Seimei has been a tireless force in the Japanese dance underground for over a decade now. TREKKIE TRAX's catalog is absolutely massive -- 190 releases and counting, over 800 tracks of all shapes and sizes released with DIY care and love over the last 10 years. Seimei's productions have been released on superb labels like Moveltraxx, WET TRAX, Midnight Cult, Top Billin Music, Akihabara Heavy Industry Inc. He's remixed Japanese techno legend Ken Ishii, done guest mixes for both Hessle Audio, LUCKYME® on Rinse FM, and Mix Up Exclusives on triple J presented by Nina Las Vegas.

Seimei also runs a monthly radio program ‘TREKKIE TRAX RADIO’ on the Japanese biggest dance music radio station ‘Block.fm’ and has a residency on Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide FM.

Le DJ et producteur BJF sort son quatrième EP sur le label Couvre x Chef dont il est membre. Entre grime, baile funk, dembow et autres styles percussifs, les trois titres qui composent Sirens possèdent tous une atmosphère bien particulière. La track Voltage est influencée par des rythmiques Miami Bass et VoltMix,  entremêlant ambiance sombre et percussions lourdes. Avec la volonté de s’extraire des cases, ses influences multiples poussent BJF à toujours renouveler son style musical.

PREMIERE | BJF - Voltage [Couvre x Chefs]

Baltimore's rising star JIALING returns to Clasico (Local Action sibling label), following her 'FREAKY HORNS' EP (one of the biggest dance tracks of 2024, called "song of the Summer" by Resident Advisor, DJ support from Pangaea, Bradley Zero, Nikki Nair, Miley Serious, Jossy Mitsu and more). 

Here she teams up with rising West Coast star Farsight, who has previously released on Rinse, Scuffed, Cloudcore & Dusky's 39 Steps label, for a stripped back, direct new club record - heavy on the breaks and carnival vibes.

The Bristol-DMV connection builds as Hodge and JIALING remix a track each from Om Unit & James Bangura’s Rushing 1621 EP.

Hodge has been releasing gold for years – but it feels like he’s on a rich vein of form even for him right now, doing his part for diva vocals on new single ‘Free’ and collaborating with Nakamura Minami on a release for Tokyo’s TREKKIE TRAX. Range, people! He goes heavy on the delay and takes ‘Angles’ deep into the sunset tech-house (as in, proper tech-house) zone.

JIALING meanwhile builds on her recent run of anthems for our Clasico sibling label, flipping between breaks and 4x4 drums with itchy baile funk signifiers and airhorns for the late night crew. Does J ever miss? 

Tracklist:
01. Om Unit & James Bangura - Angles (Hodge Remix)
02. Om Unit & James Bangura - Sapporo Drums (JIALING Remix)
