Drew Gragg - Refraction

Gloss [LHT10]

Some people are just too talented for their own good. Photographer ​Eleanor Hardwick is one of these people. As well as shooting beautiful images for the likes of Rookie, Purple and yours truly, she makes ethereal electronic music with her BFF, Beau Hulse. As their friends, the Anglo-Icelandic ​Dream Wife, so perfectly put it, ​@MoonbowMusic are “a mystical experimental electro duo” who do things like ​cover songs from the Twin Peaks OST and shoot ​spacey music videos for themselves. Having released their debut EP ​Chiaroscuro in 2015 before impressing musos of Europe with their live tour (we caught them at Iceland Airwaves back in November and fell hard) they’re back with a second release, part of which we’re pleased to present to you today. Taken from their forthcoming Before Afterthoughts EP, Lethe is a gently distorted creation that, in all honesty, wouldn’t sound out of place on ​Grimes’ Art Angels.

Premiere: Moonbow - Lethe

The dot keeps getting bigger. Huge, blue and pulsing. It just suddenly appeared. As if it had walked around the corner of some fold in the fabric of space. Or been uncovered by the wave of a hand. Just starting, then stopping in the same place. Floating light. “Help.” The recording came through. The dot keeps getting bigger. It engulfs everything and then we double. Refracted through the heart of a star. Suddenly there are two of all of us. Talking in unison. Finishing each other’s sentences. We all remember the same thing. No way to tell who was here before. Or who is new. A copy of every soul. Some of us had visions. One by one, we suddenly start dropping dead. The deceased are jettisoned, but we can’t be sure if it’s the copies dying or the original crew. Then we start hearing the voices. Replacing our own thoughts. Speaking a language we don’t understand. Lovely new words. One by one we submit and give up our bodies. One with the angels. As my lungs collapse in my chest I reach the transmission console.

PREMIERE : Mark-Henning Sargent - Ursa Major

I made this music way back in 1995 when i was finishing high school .
My good friend Dean Henning . AKA = Captain Asthma  helped me with programming some of the beats as Dean was our main drummer in Both our high school bands "Incurable" and "Fingerhead" .
I had at this stage in my life a KORG X3 Workstation Keyboard ( Thanks to my dear parents and Babs Naidoo Music in Pietermaritzburg )

At this stage in my life i was obsessed with early 80s electro music ............. bands such as Grauzone , No more , D.A.F , Joachim whitt , O.M.D , Front 242 , Kraftwerk .................... this type thing .
Of course at this point in time in South Africa ( One year into our new Democracy ) Most people where not listening to this type music .
Dean and I attempted to Record a Second Unit album in Pietermaritzburg , in a studio with our friend Gavin .
The music was recorded straight from my Korg onto DAT tape and the vocals and bass guitar where recorded separately.
Unfortunately our DAT tape was corrupt and the recording was a disaster .
Somehow Dean came into possession of a recording made onto cassette tape ................... and this is the only recording of Second Unit in existence .
This music was very personal to me when i made it 
Hope you enjoy

A Second Unit

Easy by  Second Unit  1995

Keeping things nice and sleazy Parisian producer Simon Says makes his debut on Eskimo Recordings covering English synth-pop band Blancmange's 1982 album track 'Feel Me'. 

Transforming the song into the kind of outrageously funky slice new wave disco that could have sat proudly on an old Ze Records compilation its low slung groove is now sure to soundtrack as many illicit 'Cinq a Sept' assignations as it is sweaty dancefloor moments.

Upping the tempo French remixer extraordinaire Yuksek turns the track into a streamlined, sci-fi disco number complete with vocodered FX, bubbling cosmic arpeggios and synth stabs that spin off into space and builds to a suitably uplifting climax.

Meanwhile Greek producer and Eskimo veteran NTEIBINT strips the track down to its bare skin and puts the focus on its percussive elements and rubbery bass line, the result a chugging floor filler that shows exactly why Eskimo keep his number on speed dial.

Finally disco historian Bill Brewster returns to Eskimo a year on from his acclaimed 'Tribal Rites' compilation with an extended re-edit that once again proves that he's as handy with razor and tape as he is behind the decks.

'Feel Me' first appeared on Eskimo Recordings presents The Purple Collection, out March 2nd. http://www.eskimorecordings.com/newsdetail.php?idn=4910

Parisian producer Simon Says has been doing his thing for over two decades now and it shows in the insouciant funk of 'Feel Me', the kind of outrageously funky sex jam that can turn on both electro kids and disco dads, and could be released on a brand new vinyl only imprint or have sat proudly on an old Ze Records compilation.  https://soundcloud.com/dialect-recordings
 
Fresh from releasing Bill Brewster's 'Tribal Rites' compilation, a critically acclaimed trawl through the past 4 decades of dance music, Belgium's Eskimo Recordings return to the present and look to the future with the release of 'The Purple Collection', the 7th release in the label's annual colour series of compilations. Featuring brand new tracks from the likes of Simple Symmetry, Cavego and Future Feelings alongside recent label highlights from Horixon, Atella, Paresse and NTEIBINT, 'The Purple Collection' provides another essential snapshot into today's electronic music scene, covering everything from underground house & disco to sparkling electronica and leftfield pop.
