Regulars on Bolting Bits, Lagaffe Tales (run by Jónbjörn Finnbogason and Viktor Birgisson) have played a pivotal role in introducing us to some of the scene's most talented, up and coming artists like Felix Leifur, David & Hjalti, Moff & Tarkin, and Intr0beatz. This year, the duo has decided to revamp their original digital series called "TALES" and have chosen to familiarize us with yet another gifted producer: Beraber!

Hailing from Amsterdam, Beraber is set to release his Lagaffe debut titled Early Riser, which is a four-track EP that showcases his ability to craft simplistic, lush melodies with an array of memorable synth riffs. At the core of each of his songs lies a mesmerizing groove that gets introduced at the very start and subtly builds throughout its entirety - eventually reaching a point where you can't help but be overwhelmed with just how god damn catchy it is.

A perfect exemplification of his style can be seen in the title track from the EP. In the beginning, the listener is immediately drawn in by the original's sequenced, undulating synths that anchor the piece. From there, Beraber then tasks himself with growing the beat by working in soft pads, a far-out bassline, electric percussion, and jarring chords. Although each of these elements wouldn't pop-out by themselves, as one, they create a phenomenally textured atmosphere that will get your head bobbing in absolutely no time.

Early Riser is set to come out on Lagaffe Tales next month on May 6th. Pre-order the EP here!

Following on from the aromatic, breaksy house flavours of ELLLL's 'Febreeze' EP issued a few months ago, @firstsecond-dublin enlists local boy @leekellymusic, aka Sage, for a much ear-pleasing round of solar-powered machine funk and organic house magic.

Lee Kelly - Our Place In Time [First Second Label]

Since their debut single ‘When U Go’ on Classic in 2017, Girls of the Internet have been on a unstoppable trajectory, constantly building momentum over the past two years with their own brand of future facing house & soul music. Drawing inspiration from the past 40 years of dance music, Girls’ music joins the dots between disco, house, techno, bass, ghetto and dub - creating music that glances back into dance music’s history, whilst keeping it’s eyes firmly on the future.

Girls of the Internet’s ethos has always been firmly rooted in anonymity - removing the identity of the producer, who often takes centre stage, and placing the typically anonymous vocalist, firmly at the front. It’s recently become no secret that the brains behind Girls’ is former RAMP Recordings A&R Tom Kerridge, a man who has always held a place for anonymity in his heart; from his love of Rammellzee and Leigh Bowery, interest in the Drag movement and the 90’s NY club kids, to his hand in launching the careers of faceless artists like Zomby and SBTRKT. For Tom there has always been a desire to create a pure artistic experience devoid of ego - and Girls of the Internet has been that very outlet since its creation.

Girls of the Internet wilfully ignore current trends, and brazenly tread their own path.

Bristol badness incoming as @lurka lands on @wisdomteeth-uk with new three-track EP 'Stay Let's Together'. B2 cut 'Bodied' eases in with temperate percussive hits before collapsing into screwface territory with a seismic, warped bassline. Resonant chords then add a new dimension to the mix.

Athenian Aggelos Baltas has been producing music for more than a decade now, with his Fantastikoi Hxoi project gathering both local and international praise for its bold blend of disparate styles and influences, spanning a wide spectrum of psychedelic music. 

His Anatolian Weapons releases on Lurid Music have been played by open-minded, adventurous jockeys like Lena Willikens (who selected one of his tracks on her Dekmantel compilation) while his edits have been appreciated and hosted by labels like Fortuna Records. 2019 seems like a busy time for him with a well received album on Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space, as well as a remix for Dark Entries and compilation tracks for Emotional Response and Crevette. Fresh from his U.S. tour he is ready for the next stint of European dates, without ever stop digging and producing music.

The 10010 Records is born tonight. The man behind the label is Ksky, a Dj and a synth lover from Saint-Petersburg. His unfabled vinyl-only ‘Underwater Tales’ are gathered on this debut-release. 
‘Bad Philly’ premiered here, is a great banger. There's something epic in this simple track. The portal straight to the morning dancefloor.  The story told in one breath.

OK. Back to the Limited Series for the 8th edition. Disclaimer: Do not dance in high heels. Banoffee Pies Records welcome another collection of talent with this 4 track drum exploration on BPLS008.

Jad & The joins the label on the A1 with a slow mo meditation full of warm pads and a string of broken beats on “X-Treme Drum”. The A2 comes from Lehults head chef, Lucky Charmz, with a 150bpm drum and bass inspired electro cut. Rolling low subs with a UK feel. Something different.

The B side invites Sid Quirk, who recently featured on BP009 under other alias Keppel, this time with his 88bpm haunting original vocals, packed between dark percussions and twisted soundscapes on “B_F L_R”, on the Hessle feel. Closing up the release, the B2 welcomes back Filip Szostak to the fold, this time bringing a drum heavy breakbeat DJ Tool that closes proceedings with energy and a suited transition for shifting moods on the dance floor.

PREMIERE: Lucky Charmz - Test Tubes

Sol Power Sound adds to a string of hot 2019 releases with the Special Features EP by the Sol Power All-Stars, featuring remixes by DJ Spinna and LA's Caserta.
The lead track, Don't You Let Go, features the project's centerpiece, DC-based vocalist Kenny Wesley. His agile tenor swoops and dances over a soulful, multi-layered, dubby excursion. An accomplished songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist, Wesley's career has significant milestones in the jazz, pop, and progressive soul worlds. We're excited for him to step into the dance music lane with us.
We asked DJ Spinna (one of our musical heroes… but isn't he everyone's?) for a Galactic Soul treatment and he delivered inna signature Spinna style, that’ll make you b-line to the dancefloor.  
Caserta took it classic NYC (with a lil UKG) on his Caserta's At Work flip. Let the record work through the build, the gospel-esque break down, and then open up into a piano and vibes solo. Patience is a virtue, especially with a peak time slapper like this.
If there is such a thing as a keyboard battle track, Number One Station is it. It features New Orleans-based synth wizard Daniel Meinecke over a broken afrobeat-inspired track, letting all his axes get busy. Trust us, you don't want to step to him (that's also Daniel you hear on Don't You Let Go).

@Thugwidow lands on @CR_label with a four-track take on dark, skeletal d'nb and jungle cast far into a future age. 

Titled 'Automatic Rhythm', the release is first in the label's new digital-only series. Inspired in part, says the producer, by a move from the north of England to the south, the EP showcases the impact new environments and experiences have on musical experimentation.

Today we're premiering cut 'Blacklight', an anxious yet highly refined, technical track built with lashings of ambience, choice rhythmic shifts and serious dancefloor appeal.

"It's inspired by London, it feels so different to Manchester," says Thugwidow on the EP. "I feel so different now, I've changed completely I feel... maybe coincidentally."

 Thugwidow ‘Automatic Rhythm’ EP drops today. Pick it up here: https://circadian-rhythms.com/releases/crdl001/

Automatic Rhythm - CRDL001

Premiere: Thugwidow 'Blacklight'

There was a strange, mysterious object which floated in the dense night sky. It flashed an electric green, illuminous and weird amidst a backdrop of delicate stars. It left a lot to the imagination - what was inside? Who was in flight? Were these creatures from the great beyond? It had been a long time since they'd last seen a UFO around these parts, not since the hot and heavy summer nights of the sixties. Then again, who knew what they'd seen way back then in the days of old. It was but a blur to him, a psychedelic haven of rage and madness.

A little while back we featured a mix from the ever playful musician and producer Your Planet Is Next. A Scandinavian superhero of sorts who has come to save the day from snobby enthusiasts and those who take life too seriously. He appears on a new split EP for Warning Records with a track called "UFO".

PREMIERE: Your Planet Is Next - U.F.O. [Warning]

Walking towards the podium his hands began to sweat with nervous anticipation, this was to be a prolific moment and he wished to capture every bitter second. Sirens roared in the air and crowds cheered with might and eager joy - they wanted to celebrate their newly crowned hero. In the distance he could hear the sound of helicopters hovering, security was tight around these parts. There was a lot to protect... Finally as he reached the stairs he began to truly appreciate the significance of this moment and all that it meant - he was the best. 

Conrad Pack is set to self release a new EP... Just when you thought dance music had little soul left and that business techno was all that remained. This one bangs and remains comfortably about as real as it gets. 

Lock in, tune out.

PREMIERE: Conrad Pack - The Best

Earlier this year Basic Rhythm (aka East Man, aka @hikteksound) released album ‘On The Threshold’ via @PlanetMuRecords. The neat 10-track outing explored the beauty in brutalism, and the colour in gloomy, angular rhythms – all written with DJs in mind.

Now, he’s back on the label with a banger of an EP which features this banger of a remix from Chi-Town footwork hero @RP_Boo. Across ‘2 Da Core’ Basic Rhythm supplies beats that are anything but basic as he weaves choice threads between hardcore, footwork and more. And on RP Boo’s ‘2 Da Core’ remix, the project’s title track is chopped into smithereens and rebuilt in the producer’s signature sonic palette. Which, if you didn’t know, means it's a hit in the making.

‘2 Da Core’ lands on September 13 via Planet Mu. Pre-order the EP below.

@UVB76music mainstay @Pessimist is back on the Bristolian label with four weighty slabs of dark d’n’b. His latest EP, titled ‘Burundanga’ follows up 2017's eponymous LP (which released on Blackest Ever Black), self-released Pessimist Productions material, a string of standout sets at events such as Evian Christ’s Trance Party and more.

On ‘Burundanga’ Pess conjures up “ruffhouse meets tribal shamanism” concoctions, says the label, with our top tip ‘Thug’ a sprawling seven-minute exploration into atmospheric, mystical d’n’b with enough breaks to get the party started. 

Pessimist’s ‘Burundanga’ EP lands on October 16 via UVB-76. Pre-order the EP below.

Jonny Sriraxa & Luci B's indomitable sonic system, Nostalgia Futura is a project born during the first confinement period in Madrid, Spain, at the peak of the Covid-19 crisis. The overwhelming sensations of physical, social, and emotional detention painted the horizon with a nostalgic hue..."so we felt a certain type of nostalgia for this particular future..." And now, in their sets and performances, Jonny Sriraxa and LuciB aim to transmit the entirety of that accumulated energy through rhythms oriented towards the dance floor--evoking reflection through motion-- and flowing across a variety of genres, histories, and influences that fuse the old, new, and still-evolving.

Currently producing jams and organizing events in Madrid with Casa Pangea. Stay tuned :)
