Reflex Blue - FREE002 (Snippets)

Their mission was of their own choosing, as was their path. It was a journey of exploration and discovery, without rules or obligations, but it was imperative that they kept a record of every encounter and experience beyond the atmosphere. They'd imagined what might be above them in space, what strange creatures could lurk on far off planets... Nobody really knew what lay amongst the stars or in the furthest reaches of the cosmos, but maybe they would be the very first to find out. 

London-based DJ T Dunn has just shared his label Timehri's biggest project to date. Hand in hand with close label affiliate DJ Perception, a pioneering force in the UKG underground and the mind behind Timehri's first ever release, they've been working hard over the last year and a half to bring Perception's album to life.

A concept LP, Journey To The Star imagines a voyage through space "guided by a faint starlight in the outer reaches, beamed back to earth for your listening pleasure". The first of its kind, the release showcases Perception's musical prowess and solidifies his position as a forward-thinking force in the UK Garage world, who seamlessly manages to bridge the past and the future of the sound.

PREMIERE: DJ Perception Ft MC Wizkid - History [Timehri]

The location had been scouted out, the plans and preparation were in place, all they needed was for the crowd to show up. On the edge of the city amongst the woodland and the trees, there were abandoned buildings just waiting to be filled with music and bodies, far far away from prying eyes. As the end of the working day approached and darkness took hold, people began making the pilgrimage out into the sticks to lose their inhibitions and cast off their worries; for the next 12 hours the outside world didn't exist.

Hot on the heels of releases from Morelia and Rory K, London label Das Booty welcome aboard Glasgow's Fear-E for Horns Crew Go Wild. Releases for a list of acclaimed labels like Dark Entries, Super Rhythm Trax, DABJ and Don't Be Afraid, as well as his own Posh End Music, have already helped cement his reputation for producing cross-genre club cuts. His debut on Das Booty tips the hat to his formative clubbing years and trips to huge raves in the 90s, touching on old school, rave, acid and breakbeat that's packed full of energy.

PREMIERE: Fear-E - One Step Beyond [Das Booty]

Junction Forest is back with its second Shroom, this time by the well named notorious Wesphalian trance duo.. Trancesetters Of Westphalia.
3 trippy cuts coming right from the heart of the woods, 
Pulse of The Trees is before all the untold stories of what is happening when the forest sleeps, 
what can't be seen but be sensed, 
what can't be conceived but be felt,
what is being concocted deep inside the woodland, beneath the brambles, where the sunlight barely makes its way through, where the darkest things happen...

PS005 - Various Artists - PROXIMITY

We often find there are two types of artists. One internalises their process, endlessly perfecting their work while finding the endpoint a massive hurdle, and in turn producing immaculate yet very little art. The other is continuously inspired, so full of ideas they can barely work fast enough to articulate them all. The art becomes by-product of their larger trajectory and not just a collection of endpoints. Lord Of The Isles a.k.a. Neil McDonald seems to be both. He’s always in an evolving state of process where work is constantly shed to make way for a new layer growing beneath, yet he holds his cards closely, cherry-picking when and with whom he releases that work into the world.
Neil is simply prolific. In 2016 he shared with us a vast catalog of unheard beauty, which over a long span of time was collaboratively shaped into his debut album 'In Waves'. In the span between the album release and now, Neil has performed on a number of ESP Institute label showcases from Los Angeles to Amsterdam to Berlin, and released a few efforts with our peers, but all throughout he’s been holed up working on his sophomore album [sigh]. Though patience has become a sort of meditation during this global upside-down, we couldn’t help but squeeze out an interim release to uphold the fantasy. So, four years after the release of 'In Waves', we’re proud to present a very long-winded follow-up single for the album’s monster track 'Skylark'. Accompanied by a previously unreleased album cut entitled 'OmniMulti', the single also touts two glorious remixes; a sunkissed version by fellow esteemed Scotsman Linkwood and an atmospheric dismantling by the Melbourne hopeful Tourist Kid. You see, good things come to those who wait.

Ran by Karima F and visual artist Ida Ekblad, Oslo-based Schloss Records is not only a record label but also an art gallery. With each release sporting grandiose aesthetics from Ida, as a platform Schloss continues to catch both eyes and ears in equal measure.

Their next offering comes from Mr. Timothy Crombie, most commonly known as A Psychic Yes. Entitled ' That Swamp Feeling', the EP features Bristol's Hodge on the remix.

Whilst the original brims with raw drum patterns and steel pan melody, Hodge brightens up the arrangement filling space with airy synth tones and his well-known preference for Jurassic wildlife samples.

First Listen: A Psychic Yes - 'Lost In The Act (Hodge Remix)' (Schloss Records)

Wein El Malayeen by @deenaabdelwahed (@ancient-methods remix)

Following the devastating explosion at the Port of Beirut on August 4, Ma3azef teamed up with New York-based mastering engineer Heba Kadry to curate a compilation by regional and international musicians to raise funds for the continuous relief work being done on the ground in Beirut to help those who have been failed by the Lebanese state.

Today, we're happy to announce two additional remixes to be added to the compilation: ZULI's Kiwii, remixed by El Kontessa; Deena Abdelwahed's Wein El Malayeen, remixed  by Ancient Methods.

The 19-track compilation includes contributions by the likes of Fatima Al Qadiri, Nicolás Jaar, ZULI, Slikback, and others. Bringing sounds together from the different crevices of electronic music, it is a humble attempt to galvanize musicians and listeners into supporting a city that has been integral in shaping the region’s contemporary music scene.

All proceeds from the sales of the compilation are going to local initiatives to provide assistance to those affected, they will be divided between Fundraising Campaign for the Arts and Culture Community in Beirut organized by AFAC; Beirut Musicians' Fund organized by Tunefork Studios, and Beit el Baraka.

All tracks mastered by Heba Kadry
