Jacob Meehan - Codependent Funk

Thanks Anthony Valadez and Novena Carmel at KCRW for the spin!

From playing various instruments with Ausecuma Beats, Emma Volard and The Belair Lip Bombs, Liam de Bruin steps into the producer's chair. In this solo guise, he joins Melbourne's buzzing live jazz/house scene which has given us Close Counters, Horatio Luna, Teymori, 30/70, Harvey Sutherland and Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange, many of them among Liam's early supporters. It took just two early tracks for the word to spread worldwide, with Liam gathering praise and plays from Art of Tones, Osunlade, Jimpster, Gilles Peterson, Mousse T, Jazztronik, Red Rack'em, Bandcamp Weekly, Delfonic, KCRW, Trax Mag, NTS, Tru Thoughts and Apple Music.

New single 'Isolation' takes a ride on the organic and jazzy side of deep house. Liam plays live drums, percussion, bass and keys for this one, recorded during lockdown in his garage studio in the beachside suburb Frankston, which has had a surprisingly significant role to play in the evolution of Melbourne dance music (Carl Cox, Butter Sessions, Andy Van, 21st Century Dance Club, etc). Also included are the slinky late night groove 'Lavender' and the disco funk 'Friday Evening' which also features guitar by ... Liam de Bruin! All tracks are featured on the forthcoming 'Thinking By Dancing' EP, with three additional tracks including a remix from Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange. A small number of copies of the limited vinyl will include a die-cut felt cover with embroidered Heard and Felt logo tag.

Omar Santis makes his debut on Karakul with the four track EP ‘A T.D.L.D Joint’.

Karakul is a new label focusing on deeper House cuts from around the world. First up is Chilean born Stockholm dwelling Omar Santis.

Omar first came to our attention through his records on the Woodsmen & Lady Log label, the first of which was a split 12” with Niklas Andersson which he then followed up with his own EP titled simply ‘W&LL003’ a few months later. Two fantastic records featuring his low slung, immersive House production that caught Karakul’s ears immediately.

Omar tells us ‘A T.D.L.D Joint’ is an abbreviation of ‘Ta det lugnt daa’ meaning ‘Take it easy then yeah’ and on this 12” he certainly does, in the best possible way. It’s his most soulful record to date, building upon his detailed signature sound with perfectly placed vocals on ‘Stark Champagne’, melancholic Rhodes on ‘Lulu’s Jam’, tribal percussion and pads on ‘At The Shanzai Hotel’ and finally lowering the pace altogether for the emotional ender ‘Inward’.

Nocturne Series 026: Alex Virgo

Jacob Meehan, a native of Roodhouse, Illinois (population 1,700) cut his chops in Chicago, the home of house, while working at Gramaphone Records and throwing/playing parties in and around the city. A major player in the new queer underground, he now resides in Berlin where he has furthered his musical prowess as producer and resident DJ of the much-beloved fête, Buttons, and the epic summer standout, Whole Festival. 

Major Records is pleased to feature the very first single release from Meehan, featuring a remix by our very own Nita Aviance. "Hier" started out with a nod to the forefathers, referencing David Morales and Frankie Knuckles mix of Alison Limerick's "Where Love Lives,” but quickly grew into a deep house dream full of funky synth leads and anthemic arpeggios all layered over some kicky-fresh beats. 

Nita’s remix strips it all down only to build it back up again, leaning into the arpeggios and riding those new wave synths through the dark night and straight into the dawn with her signature diva vocal cut-ups.
