Well who would have bloody thought it. 20 releases on Holding Hands. That is bananas to be typing that out. It’s been a hell of a ride and I am over the moon to be able to confidently sit here and say that I still absolutely love every single release that has been put out since the first back in 2017. What a bunch of absolute slammers!

Keeping true to form number 20 comes from a new Harry Wills alias called Brazen and it does exactly what you expect when you turn on a Holding Hands release. Bendy wendy steam rollers that land somewhere between a rail of k and downing a crate of Red Bulls.

Obviously, I am a massive fan of Harrys. I run another label (Sock It To Me) with him and his previous release on HH is one of my all time favourites. When he came to me with a new alias and some fresh tunes it was a no brainers. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have!

Big ups to one and all.

CNP020 • 'Ulterior Guidance' EP - @bensonstreaker

Limited run of 300 x 12", mastered and cut by Curved London

OUT NOW: https://canape-records.bandcamp.com/album/ulterior-guidance

"The enigmatic Benson Streaker returns to Canapé this summer with a sweltering four-track 12”: ‘Ulterior Guidance’.

Transcending the woozy microcosm of breakbeat and electronica established on his label debut [CNP015 - ‘The Body / Something’s Not Right’], CNP020 sees Streaker push his sound into opulent technicolour.

Amid a wash of psychedelic hues, A1 (’Strange Operator’) beckons with an irresistibly saturated tech-house skip. Seatbelts are advised, as Benson’s heart-throb 4x4 propels us to a strange, yet loving, astral plane.

A2 illustrates a co-existence of sophistication and minimalism rarely found in post-millennial house music; an otherworldly vocal (courtesy of Ursula Rucker) is glued effortlessly with Streaker’s understated percussion, on the blissful 7-minute title track.

On the flip side, ‘Dimension’ (B1) thrusts us into a Balearic haze of raves-gone-by. Glimpses of early acid house and trance permeate this shimmering and uplifting club-pumper, before our cosmic journey concludes with the elegant and soulful ‘It’s Yours’ (B2). Acting as a reminder of our Earthly genesis, shades of quintessential minimal house and UK garage tastefully underpin this 00’s-inspired stomper."

It’s a bit weird to get messages like “Can you please download this archive ASAP, I don’t know if I’ll be online for the next month”, but that’s the reality when you’re having a label in Ukraine, and both of the founders (I’m talking about Lumitecc and Rozquit) are members of the Army. Despite their main duties, the founders somehow are ready to present the fifth release on their Tancido label, this time – again as the VA.

There is little that is left to be said about one of electronic music’s true heroes, Keith Tenniswood. With a multi-decade career that has seen him invent and reinvent a variety of sub-genres via his long-serving aliases that famously include Two Lone Swordsmen alongside Andrew Weatherall and the subject of today’s premiere, Radioactive Man. New material from Keith in any of his many guises is always exciting, but today, we are discussing Keith’s sixth studio album - “Jam Out The Kicks”, on his own Asking For Trouble imprint. Let's get into it. [continue reading at...https://trommelmusic.com/music/premiere/premiere-c1-radioactive-man-yew-got-2-b-yew-aft012/]

Outer Zone 02 comes from the mind of a new act and a longtime friend. Modus aka Dominic Meade, draws on years of experience in the techno scenes of Glasgow and Edinburgh with his debut 4 tracker, the “Triple M EP”. The music takes inspiration from an era of techno that’s held dearer than any other in Glasgow whilst retaining a style Dom's carved for himself in the studio, through his years DJing with us and as a resident at Edinburgh’s seminal techno party, Substance.

"Refracted through the sound of Detroit’s second wave, Modus, steers ‘Triple M’ across a spectrum of discordant pulsations and contorting energies towards enthralment. The driving rhythms which beckon listeners forward, guide them to a crescendo of rapturous furore and like The Rite of Spring played through faults in the 4th dimension, audiences are left in uproar, exalted in their own movement."

Triple M EP

Modus - Fait Accompil

https://outerzone.bandcamp.com/album/triple-m-ep-part-two

For the first record of the new decade Outer Zone welcomes Modus’ triumphant return for this second part of his “Triple M” sequence.

Standing in direct contrast to the stasis much of modern life has been held in, this EP offers up an opportunity to vicariously enjoy a world, where the futuristic vistas that techno promised at its genesis seem present. Machinic cycles, looping escapism and understated funk are the axes in which this space is rendered, a space that for a moment allows us some respite from stillness.
