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!

‘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.

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).

A1 from the upcoming EP!

Furious Frank returns to Butter Sessions with 'Ahora Sí'. The fully fledged house anthem is the result of a cross-continental collaboration with Barcelona based vocalist and producer Ivy Barkakati. 

We're treated to four versions of 'Ahora Sí', all tested and ready for the dance floor and those special moments! Kicking it off, Frank delivers his "Original Acid Mix". A deep, squelchy lurker with nods to late 80's and 90's house music, peaking with thick piano chords and Barkakati's deep Spanish vocals. On the 'Sunrise' mix, the piano and chords become the focus and set the mood for an uplifting journey, bolstered by the raw thump and jack of the drum machines. 

The flip side see's Barcelona based "IVAN" emerge with their version. The duo made up of Ivy Barkakati and Phran of Klasse Wrecks fame slow things down a touch, mangle the chords and inject the rhythm with flattering top-drawer percussion. Vancouver native D. Tiffany rounds the EP off with sub-heavy bass drops, hi-tek rhythms, euphoric vocal slithers and more stingin' acidic vibes. 

Pure and infectious house music for real people!

Just after releasing 'Solidify' on Le Temps Perdu, STATUE (Tom Gould) has become a cornerstone of this years, 'Summer Riot VIII' compilation commissioned by purveyors of good groove, Futureboogie. 'Ivory' is a shining collage of live percussive work and ‘hands in the air’ piano and organ motifs, driven by its steady house rhythm. 

Futureboogie's eighth annual Summer Riot compilation EP is an eclectic gathering of producers and tracks that fittingly encapsulate the current balmy vibes and a summer load of festivals and parties already behind us.

Secret Factory return to their own label with another fresh underground house offering that includes remixes from TERR and MAN2.0. This Hungarian pair is legendary in their homeland having put on Secret Fusion parties there for the last 20 years. Since 2019 they have established their label of the same name with the sort of sounds they play in their tasteful yet experimental house, disco and techno sets. Their first original is ‘Hashen Tashen’, a brilliantly melodic track with rich xylophones and rubbery drums getting you on your toes. Cosmic pads add future vibes and the whole thing is stylishly slick and serene.
First to remix is Brazilian-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer Terr who is making waves on labels like Phantasy Sounds. Her version is an intense affair with driving drums and lasers shooting across the face. It has ping-pong melodies and frazzled synth lasers that all bring raw energy. Then comes London’s MAN2.0, a man who takes cues from 80's synth, EBM and “toy instruments from charity shops” amongst other things. Andrew Weatherall is a fan and will likely appreciate the macho twisted disco of this twisted chugger.
The final hurrah is Secret Factory’s ‘No Garbage Please’, a breezy cosmic house cut with more meticulous melodies and pads. Well treated vocals are another subtlety that ensures this is further winning effort.
This third release yet again proves Secret Fusion is a label as vital as the party it came from.

Hashen Tashen

PREMIERE : Secret Factory - Hashen Tashen

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.

Nuances De Nuit returns with its second release late October, another various artist package featuring cuts from Politics Of Dancing, Akyra, Karaba and Cosmic JD + Zenta.

  The Nuances De Nuit imprint was launched in July of this year with a four track VA from DJ Steaw, Armless Kid, T. Jacques and E.Wan, perfectly setting the tone for the labels aesthetic, which leans towards dusty drums, tripped-out synths and hypnotic grooves. Here the label continues this theme as it returns with four more stripped-back, dance floor focused workouts .

Politics Of Dancing’s ‘When The Morning Comes’ takes the lead on the package, an apt-name to set the scenery for this 6am sunrise groove, fuelled by rising chord sequences, tension building strings and bright piano licks.

Ahead of releasing Mount Kismet’s much-anticipated debut album ‘Warmer Lanes’, Disco Halal keeps us on our toes with the remixes for debut single ‘Teenage Fantasy’. Two intoxicating dance floor workouts from Whitesquare and Kino Todo, featuring fantastic vocals by C.A.R.

Mount Kismet feat. C.A.R. - Teenage Fantasy (Kino Todo Remix)

A comforting sound distinguishes this record, it is gentle and deep at the same time. If A1 - Sky City feels like diving in calm water, A2 - Jet Fuel could soundtrack a romantic date. On the flip B1 - October has a cinematic personality, envisioning a urban landscape, while B2 - Stereo Sense expresses a special dynamicity of sound. Don't get tricked by my rather emotional introduction though, Neal knows about beats and you'll hear. From breakbeat to funk, Chicago house to dub this EP is all-round a delightful expression of contemporary club music.

Eluize - Mornings [Let's Play House Records]

His mind had been running wild, a tangle of thoughts that he couldn't seem to process. Walking at night had become the medicine in these moments; a brief respite from the eternal rat race of daily life. On this evening the stars above seemed to shine brighter than he'd ever seen before, each one letting off its own bright beacon of light. To him it was these instances that served as a reminder of just how small they were down on planet Earth...

 
Having previously released on labels like Running Back and Royal Oak, Swedish producer and DJ Arkajo - who also makes up one half of duo Genius Of Time - returns to Aniara Recordings, the label he co-runs with Fabian Bruhn and Dorisburg. His Nadir EP showcases his own contemporary take on electronic music; three tracks laced with intricate drum programming and heavy subs.

Nadir EP

PREMIERE: Arkajo - Zenit [Aniara Recordings]

There was a dull throb which beat softly in his chest, he knew it was supposed to be faster, heavier and harder. His head began to spin as he walked through the busy room with shadowy faces passing on all sides. They looked out at him as if he were a lost soul for they knew not of his troubled circumstances. His heart was growing more and more quiet, intenseless and lifeless. The music continued to pound in his ear drums but he couldn't quite make out the tune as a voice began to whisper softly from the other side. It welcomed and invited him in...

Julia Govor & Barbara Ford have teamed up for a limited 12" EP for Anagram Records, a hard hitting affair is then balanced with the unique dreamy melancholy of this track which is a surefire delight.

LaMenaceRecords is a french parisian independant label.

Pressing of the first vinyl which brings together 4 tracks from various artists, speaking on the 20th district of Paris.

Influenced by all styles of music possible and imaginable, we tried to offer something very varied, exploring house from several angles : from old school refreshed with groovy sounds and lines to hip-hop jams, through much more minimalists atmospheres.

This first EP is the first part of a musical creation project around Paris : this first disc is made, among other things, with various recordings made in the streets and metros of the XXth district.

On the first side, house in the rules with the Groove Boys Project : a deep track based on the 909/303 combo.

Next, Max's track, in a more electro house register, will transport you directly to Belleville with its captivating cadence.

On the other side, you will find 2 pieces that go further from the current definition of house.

First, Pasta Mool's track, in a more minimalist style, sort of progressive and atmospheric minimal-tech house, will enchant the more perched among you.

Finally, as many samples used in house are also in boom bap, Soufflé Caramel, who does not only strip tease, has concocted you a hip hop track resolutely focused on samples, kind of a bonus track that we all wanted.

Release info:

"Citizens of Vice welcome We Play Alone for a trio of superb originals that come with a standout remix from Brooks. We Play Alone is YoungTee (of Joy Boys, Southern Fried and In Plain Sight), Lovebreak (from Paper Recordings & Sprechen Music) and Don Zazou. All three are seasoned explorers of house music in the studio, on the dancefloor and in the forest. 

Not much else is known about this artist collective, but the Love Breaks Down EP features three tracks that are as deep as they are edgy. Opener 'Love Breaks Down' is a superbly deep house tune with a slippery and icy line of hi-hats weaving in and out of warm dub chords as a minimal drum groove powers it along. It's classy and atmospheric stuff. 'Into You' then ups the ante with more raw, wooden and classic drums featuring a gorgeous lead and plenty of diffuse pads that bring the late-night soul and romance. Final of the three originals, '3-29am' is a sweet afterparty roller, with more woozy pads and trippy effects colouring in the hypnotic, rolling drums and bass. 

To complete this superb package, the Citizens Of Vice collective bring in elusive visionary Brooks (Matthew Herbert’s Soundslike and Mantis Recordings) to remix 'Into You’. The result is an outstanding reworking that is certain to set clubs alight in the months to come. Lush keys and filtered vocal sounds join a mesmerising lead synth line, delivering a track that is a genuine anthem in the making. This is fresh, high-class house music "

PREORDER: https://www.juno.co.uk/products/john-dimas-rave-wave/771443-01/

Fluid grooves, minimal intricacies and an ability to coax unusual grooves and rhythms from his deft sound designs have made John Dimas a mainstay on the scene 20 years after his first gig. His new release for his own label has all of those trademarks and more to create a throwback introspective banger.

Premiere: John Dimas 'Rave Wave'

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 :)
