buen clima is the solo project of producer, composer and DJ Felipe Castro (Santiago, 1993). Under that alias, he makes a sometimes clean, sometimes dirty mix of techno, house and electro, among other styles, with a soft spot for high BPMs, big, glossy pad sounds and interlocking rhythms. With a background in classical music and free improvisation, his productions and live performances often bring into them unexpected moments of noise, unusual influences and, above all, humour.

"This EP is comprised of five tracks written between 2020 and 2022, and it's got quite a bit of contrast among them, as well as some common threads. Some are gritty and noisy, some are a bit more amiable. However, they all show signs of recurring obsessions with certain rhythms, certain synth sounds, and share a sense of fun and humour. Each is an exploration of different production and synthesis techniques.

Big Butibit Chess Master Pro v.3.5 is on the lighter side, with some big warm pads and jazzy drum sound. It's kind of a sunny ghettotech cut, if that makes any sense. The synth part has a spontaneous feel, it was recorded pretty much in one take.

>:) Is a heavier club track, made to go a little evil, a little mischievous. It's full of squelchy sounds and has a drum part that sounds like a never ending Street Fighter combo, or a bunch of beer bottles being opened one after the other.

Forma/Contenido is also on the darker side, with a droning, oppressive mass of sound that accumulates and evolves all throughout the track. It's very much inspired by the piece "I am sitting in a room" by Alvin Lucier, and is, in fact, a sort of live version of the same premise, a long feedback loop of the voice and the beat recorded and played in the studio.

Arturito is how we call R2D2 in Latin America (or at least in Chile), and it's also my father's name. We both love the original Star Wars and this is a little tribute to that. I had a lot of fun making this track, using only Ableton's Operator synth to make 90% of the sounds. It's a bouncy, evolving electro cut with a lot of quirky bleeps and bloops.

pequeña midi is definitely the heart of the EP, a slower track made for my cat, who's sitting in my lap as I'm writing this. The rhythms and the sounds are a musical representation of how I imagine her life is like, and of her little games, running around the house. In terms of style I feel like this is what it would sound like if Yellow Magic Orchestra did a slowed down footwork track (play it at 160 BPM if you don't believe me!)."

Another superb compilation EP is on the way from the @cong-burn crew. And 'Cong Burn 04' marks the label's most high-octane release yet.

St. Petersburg's @producedbyflaty sets the marker down with opening track 'Clearances', weaving a thread of writhing electro textures into a dizzying dancefloor excursion.

Visible Spectrum is the newly launched creative playground of Yuri Boselie, also known as Cinnaman. Since donning the Cinnaman alias nearly two decades ago, he’s become a well known figure of the Amsterdam nightlife scene with long running residencies at the city's most lauded clubbing institutions like Club 11, Trouw and most recently De School. Next to his DJ sets, he's made early moves in label curation with A&R work for Rush Hour and Kindred Spirits offshoot Nod Navigators, and with his own Beat Dimensions compilations in the late 00s. With Visible Spectrum — defined as the electromagnetic frequencies visible by the human eye — a new chapter is born. It is an outlet for electronic music in the widest sense. Each sleeve will have its own unique screen printed artwork by Marilyn Sonneveld.

The first EP comes from Mor Elian, the Berlin based artist and owner of the Fever AM label. Here she offers the loose and hypnotic rhythms of 'Clairvoyant Frog' which is deep and atmospheric, like some sort of primordial techno soup. 'Shoshana's Roses' then picks up the pace with layers of rumbling drums, wooden hits and snaking synths taking you into a steamy, humid jungle before closer 'Planet Kismet' is a much quicker and more urgent bit of enchanting break-beat techno with pummeling minimal drums and warped synths and perc getting you under their sci-fi spell. A fascinating first outing that sets a high standard from the off.

Solitary Dancer explore the power of unity through dance on new EP ‘Reveries Of A Solitary Dancer’

In honour of Adrian Piper and her vital work aiding Black communities, a portion of the EP’s proceeds will go to the Adrian Piper Research Archive Foundation

After having appeared on Midland’s, Graded, the ever-prolific Dark Entries as well as Optimo Trax, Solitary Dancer once again take focus on their own label, Private Possessions. Following last year’s ‘Rites of Passage’ LP, they emerge from two years of album-dedicated studio time, returning to the floor with three cuts of unabashed, hands-in-the-air optimism via ‘Reveries Of A Solitary Dancer’ EP.

Wrapped in breakbeat etherealism, the EP is inspired by an article of the same name from Artforum’s David Velasco, in which he details the legacy of artist Adrian Piper and her extensive body of work, most notably in the field of dance. Velasco reveals Piper’s desire to “transform the mechanisms that divide people into groups”, highlighting her belief in dance spaces as conduits for reunification during times of segregation.

PREMIERE: Solitary Dancer - Will U Meet Me? [Private Possessions]

Bandcamp exclusive 04 - 10th December
https://hth.lnk.to/blue

Just after the start of lockdown, Hodge aka Jacob Martin released his debut LP, Shadows In Blue, his first foray into the world of the long player. Gaining critical acclaim, and with clubbing on hold indefinitely, the album makes the most of that flexibility, building on his dancefloor sensibilities while making good on the experimental tendencies that have long lain just beneath the surface of his music.

Fast forward a further half year and Lockdown 2.0 is in full effect in the UK, but this time we want club bangers, a sense of release, the urge to dance.

And with this, 7 producers, 6 remixes from a collective of like-minded musicians being let lose to rewire tracks with the club space in mind.

1 	Lanes (Anz's Hooover Remix)                                                  
2 	Sense Inversion (Facta & K-Lone Remix)                         
3 	Lanacut (Shanti Celeste Remix)
