Following up his recent EP, Oddkin, on Human Pitch, Mexico City based producer and visual artist Tristan Arp delivers a diverse and imaginative 4 tracker on Eternal Ocean. ‘Alternate Looking Glass’ the first track and namesake of the project opens up with a flurry of tuned percussion and celestial voices, playfully oscillating between the club focused rhythms and a sensibility akin to the works of Philip Glass and Midori Takeda. “Curved Space’ takes a similar approach but this time creating a mysterious and obscure world created through a masterful use of foley recordings and polyrhythmic structures that create a sense of the tempo being pushed and pulled at the same time. The album closes with 'Air Portrait’ and ‘Probability Horizon’, two ambient sound sculptures that speak to Tristan’s affinity for design and visual space with their intricate melodies and textures playing off one another as they glide across the soundfield, exploring a new space in this young artist’s highly developed palette.

Tristan Arp "Alternate Looking Glass"

Label founder Holly Lester pools together a selection of her favourite artists from across the globe to form the first volume in the Duality Trax Visions compilation series. Bouncing from the U.S to Europe, the VA travels through a multitude of moods and genres across seven tracks - including acid tinged electro from New York, breaks infused garage from Chicago, rave-fuelled house music from Belgium and a pulsating trance-inspired club track from Estonia. 

Today we bring you the first listen of 'Umwaya', a dreamy breakbeat number that beautifully rounds off the compilation from Belfast hustler Optmst.  

Keen to reflect the core ethos of the label, the compilation series name serves as a nod towards her ideals of a more equalised future in electronic music - something which is fittingly demonstrated throughout this stellar lineup. 100% of compilation profits will be donated to Doctors Without Borders, who provide medical care to casualties of war in Gaza, Syria, Yemen and much more. The organisation has also worked tirelessly to provide Covid-19 related aid to countries hit the hardest throughout the pandemic and are currently lobbying for a global waiver of patents on COVID-19 technologies.

Premiere: Optmst - Umwaya [Duality Trax]

"Nothing to see here, just another remix package squeezing extra mileage out of rinsed out tunes...

Wait a minute, that's actually not the case!?!?

Introducing an insane collection of complete re-imaginings of some of the biggest tunes from our very first release: Ghettoraid Vol.1. No straight edits on this one, it's all high-newtrition, juicy fresh content! From the mirror-sheen, clinical electro of Mike Starr's J@net rework, to the rave fave that is Rory Kelly's Big Mama RMX of The Past, to URTE's hands-in-the-air breaks version of Could It Be, this release has something for everyone who likes it fast, funky and "auf die Fresse".

Also available on a limited edition USB Stick, which will be the final in our series of engraved thumbdrives. For those who have been asking us to reissue the Ghettoraid Vol. 1 USB, this is your chance to get what you need as we have included all the tracks from the original release with the stick in addition to the new remixes and some spicy bonus content of course.

Big up to all the artists for their contributions <3"

PREMIERE: Young Lychee - Janet (Mike Starr Remix)

Between 1 April 2022 and 30 September 2022, food banks in the Trussell Trust’s UK-wide network distributed 1.3 million food parcels to people facing hardship – this is an increase of 52% compared to the same period in 2019. Half a million of these parcels were distributed to children. The charity says that for the first time, need for emergency food is outstripping donations as the cost of living emergency is leading to a drastic increase in the number of people turning to food banks for support.

With this situation being more urgent than ever, Vief are delighted to announce their 2nd charity compilation will be raising funds for the Trussell Trust. Not only providing incredibly vital, immediate support to people facing hardship, the charity also works tirelessly towards the goal of ending the need for food banks in the UK.

Spanning genres and tempos, reticulation stands as the label’s most ambitious project to date, and owes its thanks to the immense talent and generosity of the 20 producers involved.

2022’s hottest find, @parallels4 have rapidly acquired reverence with a series of highly acclaimed self-releases alongside a couple of singles on the CloudCore. Opaque is apt reflection of what makes the pair's music so highly sought after – a track sitting perfectly at the crossroads between house and UK techno.

1 year after releasing his 5th long-play “True, Necessary, Kind” Alexander Lay-Far prepared a conceptual follow-up - a compilation of remixes and reinterpretations from young underground heroes, new exciting talents as well as some well-seasoned producers.

Pursuing the original album’s philosophy, in the autumn of 2023 Lay-Far announced an open remix competition to share the inspiration spark, ignite the intercultural dialogue and officially release the top 3 reworks as a result. 
However it didn’t go according to the plan! Submissions poured in from Germany, Spain, The UK, USA, Russia, Ireland, Indonesia, South Africa, etc., exceeding the expectations of quantity and most importantly quality! After taking quite some time to review all the remixes - the best of the best were selected.

And there you have it - a vivid yet comprehensive compilation of 15 high-quality remixes by the likes of Ant To Be, Super JV, Marco Lazovic, Bleep, Hermanito, Anderdog, Fluchtlink, Jetelmen, etc., ranging from Street Soul to Jungle, Deep and Afro House, UK Bass, Techno, Intelligent D’N’B, Breakbeat and Electro. 
Please enjoy these sincere works manifesting real creativity, soulfulness and depth, produced by the truth-seeking souls at the cross-roads of existing cultures and scenes.
