Altiplano, Volor Flex’s effervescent collab with fellow Russian producer and good friend Encode, is yet another dateless - albeit state-of-the-art - immersion into the polyrhythmic, dense, visceral compositions that this prolific artist is constantly fine-tuning somewhere in the steppe of the Ural Mountains.

There’s a lot of synced up emotional comfort and tension happening on both sides of the release, balanced-out, as ever, by artfully crafted elements of structure and style. Among them, the everpresent UK garage signature, the noise-drenched soundscapes, the sharp snares, the skittering beats, the melancholy vocals (especially on Altiplano, which easily competes with You In Me or Fake Love in unforgettableness), plus those entrancing moments of fervor followed by profound relief that Volor is such a master of.

The main track and subsequently the EP were named after the highest and largest plateau in South America, and that’s how exalted and wide-reaching this music should feel. Both inner-city and otherwordly, both London and Syktyvkar, the 7-track, two-sided EP is going deep to get that right, raw vibe. The 12” comes with a wonderfully exciting digital perk, a sweet and soulful bonus track titled Avia.

Fancy a B2B? 

NoDave returns with a fresh episode of our new series Come B2B With Me... A friendly mix with no strings attached. Nothing planned, nothing rehearsed; just like minds buzzing off each other's love for music. 

And boi do we have some music for you on this one! Please welcome EONE. Recently spotted with 1 More Thing laying down the absolute law at Lakeway's album launch party in Planet Wax, here he is in a Brighton Pirate studios mixing up more genres than you've had pairs of trainers. 

Serious. This goes ridiculously out of bounds. Funky house to baile funk, techno to bassline and loads of lush euphoric trance. Obligatory clangers, back-to-back bangers; there's a real heady vibe to this as we recorded it on Saturday morning after NoDave played in Volks. What a mindset, what a mood, what a vibe. This one goes EVERYWHERE! 

FYI: EONE will be launching his new alias State Violet on 1 More Thing on May 2. We'll keep you posted but follow all concerned for the hot scoops! 

Wanna b2b with NoDave? You know what to do! yo@1-more-thing.co.uk
