For their first release, Amanita Gems present four fruitful explorations through fluffy sounds. Their main talent behind this mossy curtain is both a local legend and a debuting artist! 

Straight from the area code of Kyiv, O’Forty Four delivers a cluster of tracks that burst with infectious spores of bass and rhythm. His tunes hypnotize listeners with a deep, earthy groove - guiding you slowly to his lair. Succumb to the white rabbit and enter the Amanita kingdom!

Next up we have London-based and all round lovely chap, JustHenry.   

Henry has his own YouTube channel (very, very good btw) which he dedicates to sharing music from his own multi-genre collection that’s yet to be released online. In his own words, it’s his way of giving back to the online digging community that’s provided him with such great music over the years. Lovely stuff.

It’s a real pleasure for MHR to bring you Henry’s debut podcast mix ‘Deep Down in the Dub’. A Ronseal title for a mix that provides exactly what it says on the tin. 

Plenty more from us over the coming months, but for now - get your ears round this one and show him some love!

MMS #16: JustHenry - Deep Down In The Dub Mix

Picnic artists very own dig this jump onto the podcast series with this smooth offering of melodic deep house and subtle tones. Gathering pace later in the mix, the groove laden, warmer sounds of dig this are architecturally set together highlighting the boys steady approach to selection and tightly woven mixing. A top recording to start a huge year for the pairing.

Vatsanah LIVE @ Kicks & Hugs x Renate II, 23rd of September 2023, Berlin, Germany 

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Vatsanah has been spinning records for a decade - her sets are often determined by the venue and the real time feedback from the dance floor, this time leaning her sound towards a slower than usual groove on the house-ier side of things laid down with bright acid in between. @vatsanah

Layne @ Kicks & Hugs x Renate III, 2nd of December 2023, Berlin, Germany

Layne composes field recordings, abstract auditory textures, and rhythmic concrète churns into a hypnotic aural terrain reminiscent of the inceptive work from her seminal female forebears in experimental electronics. Recently released on Karl O'Connor's Downwards Records, she displays her proficiency in creating a vast soundscape and spatial atmosphere. @subjectlayne
