Sashaʼs Last Night on Earth imprint returns this March with the ʻBring on The Nightʼ collaboration between the man himself and hotly tipped Canadian James Teej, backed with a remix from the irrepressible M.A.N.D.Y. 
Thereʼs little that can or needs to be said about Sasha. A dj/producer who has seen and done it all while constantly keeping his finger firmly on the pulse of electronic music, Sasha is a genuine legend who never puts a foot wrong. 

James Teej, while a relative newcomer compared to his partner for ʻBring on The Nightʼ, Teej is no rookie and has an impeccable pedigree himself. A debut LP for Rekids, output for No.19 Music, My Favorite Robot Records, Rebirth, Supernature and Perspectiv as well as remixes for the likes of Toby Tobias, Adultnapper, Trentmoller and Kenny Glasgow have made him one of the most in demand producers/vocalists around. 

ʻBring on The Nightʼ comprises two original cuts that see the Sasha/Teej collaboration shine. ʻNight Trackʼ gradually unrolls from a ponderous, stripped beat track to a modulating, distorted beauty that balances grit and weight with airy yet encompassing melodies and vocals. 

Teejʼs distinctive vocals take prominence on second cut, ʻAs You Fallʼ, but fluttering arpeggios, resonant keys and an enormous, rich Moog bass all play considerable parts with both artists applying their musical skill in spades. 
Finally, M.A.N.D.Y distil the melodies of ʻNight Trackʼ into a staccato, bottom heavy lead while the vocals are teased throughout alongside a myriad of nagging key flourishes and rhythmic effects.

Sasha & James Teej -  Night Track (M.A.N.D.Y. Remix)

Just ahead of his second studio LP, ‘Eight Bit Ocean’, James Teej delivers the ‘Liking Your
Disorder’ single, backed with a remix from Timo Maas, for Sasha’s Last Night on Earth imprint.

Having first appeared on Last Night On Earth with the ‘Bring On The Night’ collaboration with Sasha, the prospect of a Teej LP on the label has been rumoured but before that, ‘Liking Your Disorder’ is here to whet the appetite.

Putting a modern and often highly musical slant on the classic punch of house music aesthetics, Teej never fails to deliver fresh sounding material and ‘Liking Your Disorder’ is no different. Fuelled by a 909 flavoured beat that is worked to the maximum without ever overreaching itself, ‘Liking Your Disorder’ throws an elastic synth riff around it’s concise 6 minute length with confidence. Never one to shy away from layering melodies
Teej playfully toys with secondary keys that range from the rhythmic to long held notes which result in an ever changing, densely emotive dancefloor cut.

Timo Maas’ version is very much a remix in the old school sense of the term – using the majority of Teej’s sounds and providing a new slant on them in a subtle and measured manner. Slow burning, increasingly rhythmic and with just the right amount of peaks and troughs, it’s a master class in arrangement.

James Teej’s ‘Liking Your Disorder’ is released on Last Night on Earth on April 8th with the LP, ‘Eight Bit Ocean’ following later that month

Multi-faceted Canadian artist James Teej drops his second LP, ‘Eight Bit Ocean’, late-April on Sasha’s Last Night On Earth imprint.

Releasing his first James Teej singles in 2008, Teej has since become a firm fixture on the electronic music circuit with releases for We Play House, Rebirth, Supernature and No.19 Music as well as a debut LP on Radio Slave’s Rekids in 2010 entitled ‘Evening Harvest’. Since then, Teej has joined old friends Jared Simms and Voytek Korab to become one third of My Favorite Robot, an act which is steadily becoming another of Toronto’s break-outs via tracks and remixes for Visionquest and Crosstown Rebels as well as their own highly regarded My Favorite Robot Records.

Vocalist, producer, DJ, live act, A&R and collaborator - Teej is a genuine electronic music polymath and, as such, his material is imbued with a real sense of craftsmanship where every detail has its true place and meaning. It’s this meticulous DIY attitude to every aspect of his art that bleeds through ‘Eight Bit Ocean’ – nine tracks which see Teej focused on delivering a wide range of moods, tones and textures that while all centered around dancefloor rhythms, deliver much more than ‘tracky’ club tunes.

From the brooding opener, ‘A Civil Duty’, dense shifting melodies are one of the reoccurring themes of ‘Eight Bit Ocean’. Never intent on staying with one mood within one track or throughout the whole LP, Teej lets tones fall and rise throughout with melancholic aspects giving way to rousing keys (‘The Last Request’) and fluttering leads offsetting ponderous basslines (‘Liking Your Disorder’).

Sometimes it’s what is left out that really hits home on ‘Eight Bit Ocean’ – tracks like ‘Right At Home’ and ‘Stand’ use just enough vocals to humanise them without taking away the instrumental punch while the arp-driven, robust electro of ‘Reunion’ employs only as much kick as it needs. This less is more attitude is only applied to arrangements and sound choices as musically Teej runs riot, walking the line between old and new perfectly by imbibing each track with genuine subtle, emotive transitions and contrasts.

Like many classic house albums, ‘Eight Bit Ocean’ is the sound of an artist, a handful of synths, drum machines and a mic exploring musical possibilities and, as a result, makes for an enthralling listen as well as a hefty cache of dancefloor material. Timeless sounding stuff…
