Leng Records has long admired Andrew Meecham’s work as The Emperor Machine. Last year, Meecham made his first appearance on the label via a fine remix of Harks & Mudd favourite ‘Susta’. 12 months on, Meecham returns to Leng with his first Emperor Machine outing of 2021, a typically eccentric, heavily electronic dancefloor outing featuring the seductive vocals of rising star Séverine Mouletin.

Meecham is one of British dance music’s most experienced and lauded producers, with a packed history stretching right back to the acid house era. He first rose to fame as part of Bizarre Inc and Chicken Lips (both alongside long-term studio partner Dean Meredith), but over the last two decades has devoted far more time to solo work as The Emperor Machine. In the process, he’s developed a sparse, hypnotic, heavily electronic trademark sound that combines analogue and modular synthesizer sounds with nods to post-punk disco, new wave, trippy proto-house and the mind-altering experiments of the Radiophonic Workshop.

‘Dance Par Amour’, his first solo single on Leng, is typical of his now familiar personal sonic style, with echoing, alien-sounding synthesizer motifs (some reminiscent of those that marked out Chicken Lips’ club classic ‘He Not In’), with bubbly sequenced bass, unfussy machine drums, rubbery slap-bass riffs and flashes of post-punk disco guitars.

Sparse but weighty and pleasingly trippy, the EP-leading ‘Extended Vocal Mix’ is classic Emperor Machine: a near ten-minute workout in which Mouletin’s tender but confident vocals rise above Meecham’s stylish and note perfect backing track, which sits somewhere between early ‘80s ‘no wave’ New York disco, lo-fi European synth-pop and the trippy late night dancefloor dubs that were once a feature of American boogie and proto-house records.

Meecham further explores his love of these sparse, effects-laden “synth-dubs” on the accompanying ‘Erotique Dub’, a thrillingly heavy, heads-down affair awash with echoing vocal snippets, hypnotic drums and synthesizer flourishes that attractively echo across the sound space. Like the best DJ-focused dubs of the early 1980s, the remix is propelled forwards by a strong bassline, around which other elements – guitar, bass guitar, sparkling synth sounds and mind-mangling electronics – appear, make their mark and then drift off into the ether. With key passages of Mouletin’s vocal appearing periodically to encourage people to dance, it’s the kind of delightfully wayward revision that will keep people dancing well into the early hours.

The Emperor Machine & Séverine Mouletin - Dance Par Amour (Erotique Dub)

Summer may be over but you can keep the vibes alive with this new package from Hell Yeah. It revisits Max Essa's 'The Great Adventure' and serves it up with a couple of fresh remixes from the man of the moment My Friend Dario and a rare appearance from Balearic Gabba Sound System.

Back in 2020, 'The Great Adventure' was the name of an album that collected together all of Essa's tunes on this label, as well as being a single itself. It is a signature sound from the Balearic boss with tropical drum sounds and organic percussion. Airy drums ride on blissful waves with cosmic synths soundtracking the moment that afternoon turns to evening and the dance floor begins to fill up.

Next comes My Friend Dario, who is at the heart of the Balearic new wave thanks to his fresh takes on Nu Northern Soul and his upcoming album on Hell Yeah. He speeds things up and brings warm house grooves underneath the lush and expansive synths. It's a real bubbler with triumphant leads and plenty of Mediterranean magic.

Finally come the in-house Balearic Gabba Sound System crew to bring their fusion of Italo, acid, downtempo, disco and proto-house. It makes for a track of subtle euphoric intensity, always on the rise, powered by loose drum tumbles, snaking acid lines and awash with a rush of melodic joy.

This is a versatile package that offers plenty of different and equally delicious Balearic perspectives.

Max Essa - The Great Adventure (My Friend Dario Remix)

Papa Nugs joins the Space Dust cohort with the 5 tracker “ It Came From The West” transcending various styles and shades of sound. With a more tripped out take on a traditional jacking pallette, the title track kicks off proceedings with a propulsive drumbeat and rumbling bassline providing the perfect bedrock for the acidic squelches above. “Brooklyn Duck” continues the US-indebted styles adding an earworm vocal to the mix.

On the flip a barrage of drums and glassy oscillations form “Be Anew” with the relentless programming carrying through “Knobbly Knees” taking us firmly into electro territory with robotic vocals and a mechanic drum pattern that shows no sign of waning . Closer “Groove Nxt” sees out the EP in energetic fashion with well tuned snares trading blows with crystalline synth work

Papa Nugs - It Came From The West

Im Rahmen der Sendung Electric NightFlight bei RADIO BYTE FM aus Hamburg alle 4 Wochen einen Mix aus unsere DJ Residents und Freunden.

Bomchello begann seine musikalische Reise in Nicaragua, wo er schon als Kind seine Leidenschaft für Perkussion und das Schlagzeugspielen entdeckte. Später kam die Liebe zur Salsa-Musik hinzu und als er 2018 nach Deutschland kam, verfiel er auch noch der House-Musik. Im heutigen Set für Intertronika baut Bomchello eine Reihe von Energien auf - vergleichbar mit dem Übergang von einer ruhigen Parallelstraße zu einer Autobahnauffahrt.

 Mit Musik von Ernesto Cardenal, Robert Owens, DJ W!ld, Paul and Shark, Cinthie, Sweely, Coyu, Saison, Thomas Garcia, Wallace (UK), Disco Incorporated, Traumer, Arapu, ANOTR, Sebo K und Huerta.

Released - 1st March 2024

Monologues boss Ben Gomori's edits of African classics for Sterns Edits and Africa Seven have won fans far and wide, with DJs from Optimo to Hunee, Folamour, Horse Meat Disco and TSHA getting behind them. He continues this acclaimed body of work with this new release, carving up two gems and adding a little juice to them in the process. First up, a joyous slice of 1980s Camerooon from Emmanuel Kahe Et Jeanette Kemogne on 'Ye Medjuie', where rousing trumpet refrains meet undulating bass funk. Then the deep dubby skank of Nigeria's Akaba Man & The African Pride's 'Popular Side' goes on a Metro Area-flavoured excursion with distorted Melodica blasts rubbing up against a sweet-but-trippy synth solo and haunting vox synths.
