The third of Breaka’s self-releases sees collaborations between himself, known-associate Frazer Ray, and brother Bakey.
“Fun with a capital F is the theme of this EP. I selected these four with that in mind, each one also bringing a different flavour of the UK sound. ‘The Loudest Woiioii Ever’ and ‘Phone’s Ringin’ are the product of a few sessions that me and Frazer managed to squeeze in last year. We were hugely inspired by early dubstep, instrumental grime, and of course UK Funky.
For the flip, I thought it was high time to release some of me and my brother’s productions for the world to hear. ‘Club Dynamics’ takes things right up to 150bpm, and draws on Jungle and Juke influences. We round off the release with ‘Pro Perc', a UKG groover to vibe out to, named after the now closed drum shop on Kentish Town Road we’d visit as kids.“

@nate_su @additionbysubtraction

Addition by Subtraction are beyond excited to announce ABS006 due for release later this year.

Pushing Australian artists alongside global ones is something we feel deeply passionate about at Addition by Subtraction. Inviting Nate S.U to kick off the release was therefore an absolute must as the Sydney and now Barcelona local has been making serious waves across the globe. You may recognise Nate from co-running Conspiracy with previous ABS recruit, Elijah Something, or through his signature production for his very own When Dogs Fly - regardless, he has been one to watch for sometime now having released on a variety of world-class labels like Gene on Earth’s Nug-net. It’s safe to say everything has fallen into place for the artist as he continues to turbo charge his name around the globe. A1 and A2 bring a deep yet bouncy groove, a unique feel that piqued the ears of Enzo Siragusa who ripped into ABS006 at Fuse Barcelona as well as Voigtmann at Houghton a couple of weeks ago. Timeless tracks are hard to come by and we feel Nate has truly delivered with Eastern Turbo and Jerry Don’t Do Desserts.

The B side is strongly backed up by Frenchman Occibel. About 10 years ago, he started making music with absolutely no background but it was an “insatiable desire to create my own songs'' that brought about the rise of his incredible talent. Now signed to the esteemed Chevry agency in France, Occibel’s production is highly recognised by his driving electro bombs that light up any and all dance floors in peak moments. B1 and B2 were crafted with this in mind, so for all DJs that have been given the gift of controlling the dance floor, enjoy the reaction of Occibel’s Open Minded and 7 Miles, loaded with cheeky vocals and energising basslines to boast a stunning journey from start to finish.

Marko Polo

If the Superfast XI was chaos and carnal, the Marko Polo was class and elegance. She was designed for comfort and with a homely touch that was unexpected but warmly welcomed. She had cabins (with a private bathroom) for four with room to spare, a fancy restaurant, a separate sitting room with card tables and lounges and to top it all off a friendly and present staff who attended to your every need. After a week in rural Italy in a sublime Airbnb farmhouse with the most delicious fresh produce, charming villages and friendly people, the sophistication and warmth of the Marko Polo felt only too natural.

In all honesty I didn't actually write this track aboard the Marko Polo. The vocal samples (Marko Polo and the two beatboxing lines) were recorded in the cabin just before we were literally rocked to sleep by the gentle hum of the boat. I had a 20 minute session putting the bare bones together before the sleeping pills kicked in (I was taking no chances after the Superfast XI) and my eyes shut whilst my laptop was still open.

When we arrived in Split, we were stopped in our tracks by the sudden abundance of coarse English accents, even coarser Slavic accents, terrible cafes and the immediate unfamiliarity that Croatia provided. My travelling companions and I assessed the situation and decided to sit at a cafe just around the corner overlooking a beautiful Croatian beach. We sat there for 2 hours in the rain (undercover!), with our headphones on, all doing our own thing - Georgia knitting, Rhys writing copy about disabled parking permits in the Northern Territory, and me writing this track. I had my first hot chocolate of the trip (the thick and rich kind) at 8am in the morning at a locals only cafe in the rain at a beach in Croatia no less, with special people who were killing it in their own ways writing a fucking liquid DnB banger based on the beautiful overnight ferry I had caught the night before from Italy.

It was a bit of a wtf is my life moment.

The Superfast XI

There is truly no experience quite like the Superfast XI. As we sat around our luggage at the port and watched the ship come in (at midnight), thousands of cars, people, animals, babies and every manner of cargo began crowding in anticipation. As she docked, there was a mad rush of people to be first on - toddlers getting passed overhead and nonnas shovin nonnos out of the way in order to get the best spot.

The 15hr hour ferry could only be described as a lawless wasteland on water. It looked like a mass murder scene from Final Destination - endless limbs, possessions, animals and people scattered everywhere, passed out from heat, sweat and exhaustion (or on their way).

The ingenuity of humanity was on display as people assembled the most amazing sleeping tech from the random collection of objects they could find aboard. There were seasoned sailors with chairs, benches, tents, hammocks and air mattresses turning into the hottest real estate for one night.

I spent most of that night writing this track. Without intention I wrote the angriest, most carnal beat I've ever produced and I think it’s got a lot to do with the Superfast XI experience.

After a windy, hot, sticky and altogether uncomfortable 1hr of sleep, the sun rose and a beautiful day dawned. At 11am, the previously non-existent staff filled the pool - which until this point had been empty with a net over the top (some brave soldier slept on it). I was first in, washing away the entire evenings sweat, salt and any concerns before returning to the chaos for the final hour of the trip.

Somehow this ended up in the track - the middle liquid section was a happy accident I composed before it happened IRL.

I’ll honestly never forget the Superfast XI. Images of people strewn everywhere on the boat, cry-laughing with friends, dancing at sunrise and that sweet sweet dip in the pool flash in my mind every time I play it.

Label: Banoffee Pies Records
Artist: Syz
Title: Burner FM
Catalogue Number: BP022SD
Genre: UK Techno / Broken / 140
Release: November 2022

Tracklist:
1. Burner FM
2. Earworm

Banoffee Pies Records welcomes Syz to the label with “Burner FM”. A two track single to warm the mood ahead of his full EP “Headspin” scheduled to land early 2023 from the impressive UK based alt. Techno producer.

Oli’s high quality output of playful and dynamic compositions on show yet again. A long path ahead for this kind soul and a good start point for this cohesive artist-label BPR hook up. Syz carves a distinct sound with clear intention in the cross hybrid field of techno leaning, drum heavy, dubbed out, and often grime inspired broken beat sonics. As always, there’s plenty of subtleties, chaptered progression and unpredictable flurries of hooks to keep you moving.

@seven-hills-records

It's been nearly 2 years since our last reissue comp, so we're pleased to
announce SHRR06: Seven Hills Presents Governed By Rhythm 94 - 97!
We're taking another wild excursion into the world of Andy Jones, the mastermind
behind Precise Daily Rhythm, a label we reissued back in 2020. Governed By
Rhythm was an outlet for Andy's faster, trancier dance tracks, as opposed to the
grooving techno and tech house of PDR.
SHRR06 comprises three never before heard tracks on Disc 1, as well as four
from the original label on Disc 2. Additions to the original music are; ANWAM, a 16
minute long acid ambient wormhole, Kik The Can, a pumping bassline driven
piece of tech trance, and the early 90's Italian-style Bedroom.

@chungo_uk returns to Scuffed Recordings for his second release on the label, showcasing his signature broken techno sound on the Pineapple EP.

On the A-side we open with the title track - as anthemic and melodic of a UK techno track as you’re likely to hear - followed by percussive bop Differ.

On the flip we have subtle roller Don’t Bother, and closing out proceedings is one of the UK’s most exciting upcoming talents @breakaleeds, who infuses Pineapple with jazzy chords and 808s.

Pineapple EP

Chungo - Pineapple (Breaka Remix)

Release date: 31.07.2020

Preorder: bit.ly/DBGI002

Club tools that flaunt meticulous percussion, time-stretched vocals and syncopated drums, crafted with UKG sensibilities.

As premiered by The Black Madonna on BBC Radio 1's Residency, the record opens with O O O, a peak-time banger comprising of pungent vocal direction, and gently swung, pristinely programmed percussion.

Duvrow Hill utilises a clattering worm break, with spacious bass devastation, complimenting aromatic, time-stretched vocals.

Three Strikes, named after it's three different, distinct drops, consists of an extraordinary arrangement, exposing a fuller view as it concludes an EP of valuable club tools.
