February 2016 sees the 3rd anniversary of Houndstooth, and the label mark this with their 50th release. ‘Tessellations’ is a compilation of brand new, exclusive tracks from each of the 14 artists to release on the label.

The release serves to simultaneously trace common threads and highlight tensions within such a stylistically expansive roster.

Presented on a double CD and digitally, ‘Tessellations’ charts a path from Guy Andrews and Aïsha Devi’s widescreen soundscapes and the offbeat electronic pop of 18+ and Snow Ghosts, through the analogue 4/4 pulse of Marquis Hawkes and Shift Work, to Akkord and Special Request’s visceral re-imagining of hardcore.

Tracks from Call Super, Throwing Snow and Second Storey occupy those hard-to-define – yet often most exciting – spaces in between, gluing together the selection along with contributions from House of Black Lanterns, Soft as Snow and _Unsubscribe_.

We here at Second State are thrilled to bring you our new concept entitled HUB. While most labels these days are doing various artists releases to showcase the overall talent on their label, we thought it would be better suited for both our listeners and ourselves to break the mold and bring you a series of true collaborations. Each HUB release will feature a single artist teaming up with others from the Second State family to create an EP of authentic musical compromises. A place where multiple minds find a harmony somewhere outside their own identity and each collaboration conceives a genuinely unique artifact. With this, there is no one we would rather have kick off the series than the man behind the massive EPs; 'Throwl' and 'Doch', Stephan Hinz with HUB One!

Of course it would only be right to kick off the first track of the first HUB One way. An alliance with, Pan-Pot. "Tension' is a heavy number with just a few key elements, it's a slow lurking journey through a dark forest at night. As each bush and branch is pushed aside and every step inches closer to a destination unknown, the pressure builds. Soon, without knowing, you are in the depths of a jungle with no way back and only one decision. Keep going.

Stephan Hinz & Pan-Pot - Tension

Pig & Dan vs Mark Reeve - Profound (Original mix)

Dust off a wine glass or three; today we raise a toast to one of the most dedicated house music institutions — Smallville Records. Ten years is a ruddy good time in this part of town, and establishing such a loveable brand takes some doing. Yet, with misty-eyed house at its core, the record store-cum-label has confidently strutted towards the big ten. To celebrate, the Hamburg fam are dispensing the third and fourth part of the Ways Series — entitled Smallville Ways — with a two four-track 12" and an 11-track CD. 

Naturally, the roll-call reels off like a FIFA dream team equivalent: STL, Christopher Rau, Moomin, L'Amour Fou (Move D with Benoit Bouquin (BB) and Marco Wollenberg), Smallpeople, Juniper, Jacques Bon, Lawrence, Rvds & Rau, and Tilman Tausendfreund.

Kornél Kovács' offering carves the deepest incision though. Remodelling a D'Angelo Rhodes piano sample into a diet version of itself, "Space Jam" is as airy and uncluttered as we've come to expect. Here's to another decade then, ayy.

Kornél Kovács "Space Jam" - Boiler Room Debuts

Over the past two years, Matt Karmil has dealt a number of masterstrokes. If his various appearances on Yumé, BiS, and Mule Musiq haven't flagged up on your radar, his forthcoming outing on Studio Barnhus deserves your undivided attention.

The EP's lead-track 'Moment' hardly needs our co-sign. It's already been the high watermark of DJ Koze's sets this summer. It was the parting gift that Axel Boman left Beats in Space in his last podcast. When we received it back in July, it was only shared between Barnt, Koze, Ada and the Barnhus family itself. After two months, we're falling over ourselves to give you the exclusive.

Dive in — there aren't enough superlatives.

No matter what you think of the Chilean show-stopper, there's no denying Ricardo has a special something when it comes to making and playing music. His remix shows off his typically bumping and rolling style, with glitchy percussion and an un-rivalled groove. 

For fans of Villalobos, this is a dream, for those not so hot on the legend's work, now's your time to get to know, this is brilliant. 

Premiere: Freaks 'The Man Who Lived Underground' (Ricardo Villalobos Remix)

From the album 'Aranda', out now.

Trans A.M's (that full stop is important) debut offering is a class act. Not only is the Speechless EP a twosome of forceful techno guzzlers at its core, but whatever other influences they've shovelled in only seem to strengthen the deal. Example #1 being the title track. "Speechless" knits together broken, bass driven, robotic grooves with traces of dancehall dem bow riddim with a disastrous outcome. Catch it when it lands on January 30 via SPE:C.

I wake up in a strange place
Sounds of Ethiopia
She's wearing the same thing
Every time

I'm so far from home
So far from grown
Keep hearing the same thing

She can't tell
I can't tell her
You wear it well
I know better

Sometimes I need the pain
Keeps me right
And I'm never gonna be the same
How I like

Still living like on the run now
And I'm living like on the run

She can't tell
I can't tell her
You wear it well
I know better
So far from home
So far from grown

After gracing our Copenhagian stage last summer, Max Graef's right-hand man Kickflip Mike [Joschka Seibt] now joins the Money $ex flanks alongside Glenn Astro, Delfonic, IMYRMIND, Hodini and Alex Seidel as the creator behind their fifth release. Joschka housing his debut EP with the homemade Graef-Delfonic-Astro imprint is a logical move, following on from his previous Box aus Holz dabblings. "Vanilla Seibt" is our top pick from M$R 005's five original cuts – gritty drum distortion grounding the celesta of scalic chimes and whistles above, upholding the well versed groove that the Money $ex / Tartelet / Box aus Holz / ava. crews are now known and loved for.

Undertow

Snow Ghosts - Undertow

Remix by @Ambassadeurs. 

"io is the next album track to be revealed from tsaik's forthcoming album, Lemon and unlike their recent single tehraj, it’s a more poignant affair. Found sounds, sublime guitar licks, Asian percussion, emotive pads and haunting vocals are just some of the things you’ll discover - all glued together with arpeggiated, glitchy textures and white noise. The result is an ever evolving journey of experimental electronic music that conjures up memories of the organically glorious beats of Bibio, Shlohmo and James Blake at their best leaving the listener comforted and relaxed."

io (Ambassadeurs Remix)

One name that has been bubbling up steadily over the past year is @Selvy, cropping up frequently as a key component to Poland's new, very underrated music generation. After spotlighting his contributions to FASRAT and Transatlantyk in late 2015, we've been keeping close tabs on Selvy's happenings.

Next month finally brings his return – the four-track POPS EP by way of newcomer label, @hollick_nobaddays aka No Bad Days. Housed in London, the imprint initially stemmed from, and now runs in tandem to, a radio show where you can tune in to hear all their forthcoming fruits hidden amidst two hours of incredibly good music and other general tomfoolery.

EP opener "Wishing Well" brings the drama. The fun of Selvy's music is sustained, with an added air that the Poznanian (we think?) is serious this time around. Tropical drum patterns ground these seven minutes of exotic house, as VHS synths chords and marimbas whir in and out overhead. Given a bonus lick of paint from Dutch jaklord Alden Tyrell, this is a strong entry from the newest and worthiest asset in Poland's electronic music game.

POPS marks No Bad Days' inaugural release, dropping early April
