The second release of the year already from the party music people of Abstrack. This time, it’s Brussels-based artist Strapontin whose original production is on the menu, with reinterpretation from several gifted companions. The multitude here is no excuse for genericity or easy recipes, rather a fertile playground for toying around with a wide range of vibes and moods.

Matches is a poetic, sensual spoken-word piece. The song feels like a flower about to blossom, though with plenty of hybrid DNA in it. In the end, it leaves the way wide open for further emotions to get through. And they do.

Sasnal Park is the emotion of wonder: looking for something forever, but for what? The drums make you believe that you found it but they turn out to be a mirage, and so does every tangible element of the track. A beautiful journey in the end even if you don’t know where you’ve been.

Family Diner … no ambiguity this time: a mystical roller as dark as it is trippy. Or maybe more trippy. Either way, not sure you can resist dancing to this one played out loud. Lose yourself to screaming halfway through, but only to fall back well-rooted in those dancing feet afterward.

On the flip, remixers put it where they’re expected to: A Strange Wedding takes the wandering “Sasnal Park” on the Edge of trancy club music, closer to the roots of Abstrack parties.

Feon turns the belter “Family Diner” into a road roller: sirens and massive subs engage into a memorable fistfight.

And home man Vidock chooses the very dreamlike “Matches”, adding quite a touch of dancefloor but not removing one inch of a dream.

A digital bonus of great value is delivered by the hands of Anatolian weapon, remixing Sasnal Park. This time, no messing around: its full-on club mood, the acid line, and the powerful beats turning the wander and the dream into a strangely haunting dancefloor weapon.

PREMIERE: Strapontin - Family Diner [Abstrack Records]

It’s no coincidence that Susan has yet another match with the Box. Wait, we mean. Ok, let’s start over. Match Box has a second date with Susan. No one has to perform a rain check here, because the evening is in full effect. Here’s how the story goes.

It’s a dreamy vibe. The wind gushes between our gears as the sunset tickles the scene. We are sensitive to the light. We believe in what is to come. We’re on the hunt. In the far out foggy clearance we are struck by the sparks of a very rare object. Amethysts depict a calm purple variety of quartz. Whatever that means, we’re floating on an unknown cloud. This Amsterdam duo really does this to us, huh? Heavy on the synths, easy on the emotions. A banger in the making, is what is whispered into our ears. Trippy echoes massage seemingly infinite chords, whistles and sounds I’ve never heard before. I really like this kind of.. uh.. you know.

Two drinks down the line and the fluids of life become increasingly apparent. Tip-toeing from left to right, the jumpy stabs of house music stand glaring at our eardrums. We need to have a shot. Let’s order this one called - what was it again? - oh yeah, Fluidum. Down the throat it goes and we notice an increasing pace. That familiar echo rings our bells. Again. This song demands we go with the flow. Let’s do it. A casual stomper. But only if you really sit down and try to understand.

Do you ever read? Have you ever felt that sensation? You know what I’m talking about. The one where you suddenly wake up as a bug, clustered to your bed, crawling up the wall? Or the other one where your mind is oppressed by a nightmarish endeavour that keeps on repeating itself? The drums. The bass. It’s all part of this adventure. Let go of the nightmare. Embrace reality. Because you are free. As you shift into the ease of life you are blessed by an inner momentum. You don’t have to read Kafka to be Kafkaesque. Match Box tell their story and offer you an alternative to repetitive madness by introducing a novel claim. One that will bring us to the next level. Go now, go.

Shall we hit the casino then? Sure. A gamble is what this really is. These boys call it a Mutation Gamble, for it translates into a multiplicity. You kno’wha’I’m’Sayin’? The snares are tender, the futurism is constant. A little breather in the middle segues into an augmented past. Just as we think we know where this is headed, the echoing vocals grab our hand and say: not here, but there. That is where we will commence that feeling of tomorrow. OK, you say. I am with you on this one.

Everyone works hard for a climax. Down the line is where it stands. We really need to lean back. We need to observe. Flattering spirits linger as the background noise fades into a holistic feast of synthesised cinematic culture. This is the culture we strive for. A modular masterpiece is what we are presented. Is this some kind of new technique?

Have you caught your breath yet? Well, there’s no choice here. A mescaline-induced trip from the here and the now is generated in a collaboration between the boxed matches and Exo Moda. An intense click overwhelmingly bangs into a fast-paced anthem. We’re all dancing at this point in time. And precisely time is what we are now, finally, questioning.  It’s been a trip. It’s been a momentary invasion of our mind. It’s been a pleasure. Actually, did someone say it was going to rain? I’ve danced myself dry and am ready to do it all again.

Modern figureheads of acid house, DJ and production duo Posthuman launch into the summer with The Depth EP on There Is Love In You. Fresh off the back of EPs on I Love Acid, Tusk Wax, Craigie Knowes & Dixon Avenue Basement Jams, this groove-laden, acid-flecked outing delves deep into the sounds of classic house.  
 
Lead track ‘Chevrolet’ featuring London based singer Josh Caffé sets the vibe perfectly. Catchy vocals meet crunchy drum sequences and playful pad patterns, rolling steady with a stripped-back groove and touches of smooth chords. A proper deep summertime banger. ‘The Depth’ unleashes face-melting acid basslines crashing together with classic 808 drum hits. A scorching dancefloor weapon. ‘Jupiter Traxx’ takes the EP in a swerving into oddball territory, withd charged broken percussion colliding with eerie vocals and wild sax hits for a classic proto-electro number. ‘My House My Rules’ closes out the EP: a classic drum track that slowly builds until the introduction of heavily processed spoken word melodies and washed out chords. A steady-rolling depth-charged journey to the end.

‘The Depth’ EP drops 24th July, via There Is Love In You.

Salt Mines / Life Sciences Division label-head Rudolf C joins Craigie Knowes for both party's first EP of the year. "Gamma!" hits hard across 4-tracks spanning techy-acid, futuristic garage, and peak-time rollers. This is the first coming together of label and artist in the form of an EP - following on from Rudolf C's stellar contribution to the latest release in the label's War Child Fundraiser VA series.

The release of "Gamma!" falls hand-in-hand with the rebirth of Craigie Knowes' in 2021 which sees the Scottish imprint leave Glasgow and return to their hometown of Perth, the opening of their new studio / label-hub and a move to self-distribution, operating primarily from Bandcamp for the first time since the label launched back in 2015.
