Atlanta-based DJ; JSPORT, spent the start of the global pandemic meticulously learning the craft of production. After countless sketches, they have created five otherworldly drum poems for their debut EP, “Out of Bounds.” 

Whether it’s a bass, a snare or a clang, percussion is front and center at almost every moment, but always paired with a careful attention to melodic detail. 

The release opens up elegantly with Zenon, as sparse, detailed patterns are sprinkled on top of an infectious house groove. Next is the sinister yet sexy Gully Bop, where a soca-infused pulse meets darker UK style bass. Capoeira Drum is an intricate network of shuffling rhythms, with each hit moving together as if they were intermeshing gears. Panting breaths and baile funk style horns weave in and out on Hyper Drive, through a maze of stuttering high hats and ghost vocals. Guillotine Drum closes things out menacingly, with aggressive slams riding a wave of humming low end and wails from the abyss. 

Cadences from the Caribbean, South America, and the rest of the African Diaspora are carefully pieced together here with JSPORT’s own interstellar vision of club music. There may be intense layers upon layers of percussion on this release, but these aren’t just DJ tools like most drum tracks tend to function as. They’re rich and full, beautifully detailed, and serve as vessels for an exciting new universe of sound, which adds JSPORT to the ranks of producers pointing to the future of global dance music.

Fatherhood, the long standing NYC duo of Michael Magnan and Physical Therapy, return to Allergy Season with some signature parental wisdom.

‘Round People’ is all disco-fied funk, before opening up into a bright piano house anthem. Label alums OSSX do what they do best on their remix- slimming down the track to pure club gear.

On “If Tori Calls” Fatherhood flip landline sounds into brash breakbeat house. Pittsburgh’s Ali Burger redials the track, turning in a psychadelic electro take.

Made in London, remixed in Paris and Japan and released in Belfast, G3 follows up his debut LP with 'Koriko' on Rudimentary Records; a tale of rediscovery that spans grime, dubstep, electronica and minimalistic footwork.

The project bloomed as a symbol of the producer’s time spent in the English capital and his experiences there, even containing a track called ‘ø’; an ode to the Corsica Studios club-night of the same name, presided over by Hyperdub label founder Kode9.

Today we debut the Amor Satyr flip of ‘Coming Up, Yuliya’ – a bubbly, bass-driven, carnivalesque lullaby from the French artist. Dreamy melodies, razor-sharp percussion and high velocity energy provides the G3 original with a complete re-work, blending the distinctive styles of both artists in a colourful coming together.

Another wonderful outing by Rudimentary Records, who continue to fly the flag for diverse, UK influenced zest in Belfast.

'Koriko' drops on Rudimentary Records on September 4th. Cop the pre-order via the labels Bandcamp page - https://shop.rudimentaryrecords.com/album/koriko
