Banoffee Pies Records, in its eighth year of operating, hit the 20th release milestone in their Original Series. Joining the roster, Cairo based producer Hassan Abou Alam steps up with a 4 track solo EP entitled “Fasla”. A decisive selection of attitude packed wormhole bass lines and dark basement jams.

The A side was produced in a special collaboration with local artist SHBL-LBSH who’s vocal works feature across “Kesibt” + “Fasla”. The B side delivers sharp cutting synth lines in “Mawkif” and breakneck low end rumbles in “Hanshoof”. After a series of works on the likes of Naive, Not For Profit and Rhythm Section, Hassan fittingly joins the Berlin based, Bristol born label with more boundless sounds that slice through the fabric of styles that BPR have fostered since inception. Tailored club music from one of Egypts new wave of producers. Hold your hats and check your Bass bins. BPR. X

Tiga & Hudson Mohawke - LMZ:RMX
Stream & Buy - https://turborec.lnk.to/LMZ-RMX

Tiga and Hudson Mohawke further their mission to Legalize Compassion with this outstanding set of remixes of their Love Minus Zero collaboration.

With a self-reported emotional IQ of 196 and the dancefloor pedigree of a pure-bred champion clubhound, Tiga and Hudson Mohawke’s Love Minus Zero project offers nothing less than total catharsis in torn dungarees. Their debut album L’Ecstasy delivered on the duo’s promise of “hardcore romance,” even in the eyes of the most hardened hardcore romance purists. And now, LMZ:RMX showcases a dazzling array of styles and sensibilities that will give listeners a musical education tantamount to eight months of crate-digging with The Beat Burglars, or watching that Netflix documentary series where Lin-Manuel Miranda travels to Ibiza to learn more about rock history.

Tracklist:

- A test audience confirmed that the remix by Berlin's Quelza of “IN ORDER 2” takes the original “into Berghain territory,” which is an area which includes both the club proper and the fenced-off pen where rejects console one another in the pitiless German moonlight. 

- Many would say Keinemusik is the hottest crew in dance music today, and frankly who has the energy to argue otherwise? To this end, we platonically tapped Reznik to turn “Silence of Love” into the No. 1 Autumn Anthem of 2024, and he did not disappoint. 

- Keepsakes titled his serotonin syndrome-inducing version of “BUYBUYSELL” the “Cynical Vox” mix, but make no mistake: this British-New Zealand DJ-producer/Haven founder has a heart of gold, which shone through in each one of his tender email exchanges with us.

- Storied Techno Texan Audion is in peak form on his remix of “Duro,” which means “hard” in Spanish AND Portuguese. Audiophiles should note that the track was mastered at the vineyard he and Tiga co-own with Bryan Adams.

- On their mix of “IN ORDER 2,” Merry Men of Montreal Priori and Patrick Holland team up as Jump Source and make sweet music deep into the evening time, doing only as Eros commands.

- Hamburg Electro Genius DJ Mell G strips all romance from her mix of “BUYBUYSELL,” favouring a vision of future in which websites are illegal and people “jack in” to landlines to download the latest feelings.

- Finally, the ADJD mix of “Duro” sees Swedish techno legends Alexi Delano and Jesper Dahlback return at last to Turbo’s frigid embrace. You’ve read all about them at the library, now experience their majesty over headphones on the computer at the library.

"We came all the way from heaven to dole out euphoria like it was candy from our pocket,” says a visibly erect Tiga. "Put it this way: when a frown sees us coming down the street, it’s fucking over. We watched these remixers become our Deputy Music Angels before our very eyes, and I can only hope they think that sounds as cool as I know it feels to see."

'Maintaining My Peace' is a collaboration with UK rapper/producer Novelist and US soulful house legend Stephanie Cooke—two artists we’ve long admired. Novelist was first introduced to our music through his mum, and after we reached out, he sent us a voice note from LA saying he was keen to link up as soon as he got back to London. You’ll hear that exact message at the very start of the track—a nod to the moment this journey began.
Not long after, Nov came by our studio and spent hours with Beans, deep in conversation about production techniques, life, and everything in between. That genuine exchange of energy and ideas directly influenced and shaped the lyrics Nov wrote that day—raw, reflective and grounded.
The track’s production pays homage to classic West Coast rap—we wanted that raw, laid-back, soulful feel. Once again, we brought in the talents of Immanuel Simelane on bass and Alex Cosmo Blake on guitar to help us capture that authentic G-funk texture. From the jump, it was clear the instrumental needed a voice like Nov’s and he floated over it effortlessly.
There was something missing however—we needed a hook and we knew exactly who we had in mind. After a long search, we finally managed to get in touch with one of our all-time favourite soulful house vocalists, Stephanie Cooke. To our surprise and excitement, she was totally down to be part of it. Her vocals brought exactly the warmth and emotion the track needed—she was the cherry on top.
The result is Maintaining My Peace, a smooth, heads down, introspective track that blends soul, self-reflection and that unmistakable West Coast influence.
