June 17th sees the release of Of Unsound Mind ‘Remixed' LP. Label owner Skream asked all artists who have released on the label to remix a track from the catalogue, with the label fast approaching release number 20 from Skream himself its a retrospective look at the label with a twist, breathing new life into a body of music from the last two years since the labels inception.

The third release on Steve Bug’s new Sublease Music continues to achieve the heights of the previous two. 
This time it’s the turn of buraq - the DJ and producer from Zurich, who has been blowing up via releases on Cyclic Records, Bondage Music, Flash Recordings, Sirion Records and Stil vor Talent. 
„I discovered buraq while digging for music and started playing more and more of his stuff. A while later I played in Zurich. There we finally met in person. Afterwards, buraq sent me some top notch demos. Those were one of these tracks I definitely wanted to release but didn’t fit on Poker Flat 100%. Buraq’s EP gave me another push into launching Sublease Music. It feels great to finally reveal this one, too!“ so Steve. 
Here he drops two bumping, deep and raw house jams, ready to get feet moving and bodies swaying. 
Care has snappy, tight drums and an infectious vocal loop, while Anymore is a deep bomb, building and building the energy yet remaining minimal in its instrumentation.

The cutting edge sound of Viennese/Berlin electronica is here! Joyce Muniz is back to tear up your local dancefloor with another two carefully honed grooves, this time pushing herself in perhaps her most techno-focused direction yet.

Rolling tech-leaning percussive provides the backbone of ‘Microdosing’ along with throbbing monotone bass grunts. Subtle melodics work their way into the mix along with stuttered vocals and metallic textures, the snarling, menacing lead arpeggio that is the track’s calling card gradually bubbling to the surface. Muniz’s uncluttered, succinct arrangement lets the track breathe beautifully, with the psychedelic undertones left to subtly permeate just as a microdose of LSD might. An entrancing journey into the psychedelic experience, but not a full trip.

‘Try Me’ ups the intensity with its moment of drama and mind-bending atonal riffs. A stomping beat is laced with a pitch-bending, warped machine groove and chunky bass rumbles away incessantly as the track builds. The dark groove is made wonkier still with an arpeggiated riff whose hollow tone recalls Hot Butter’s infectious ‘Popcorn’, and sensual vocal thrusts add yet more drama. A tense breakdown goes darker still as the vocal unfolds with a little classic house flavour.

Time and time again Muniz has proved herself to be both a masterful musician and highly qualified architect of dancefloor gold. With such an array of styles under her belt, this new release makes for yet another sonic reinvention.

Early Feedback:
Duski: Microdosing is dope.
DJ Mag France: Great balance between jacking house and minimal acid techno. 
Agoria: Merci.
Alinka: Queen. 
Sasha: Chunky stuff.
Ralf Kollmann: Excellent stuff! Wish I’d get demos like this!
Tone Of Arc: With the dopeness.
Christian Nielsen: Dope.
Stefan Braatz: Support. Love all tracks!

Dutch artist, Odette, first entered the wider public conscious back in 2016, when her first single, The Divine Line, was picked up by Lyon-based label, Denise Records. Since then, the prolific producer has seen a rake of releases on some of the dance underground’s tastemaker labels, including Deep Tech, Baile Music, Saint&Don’t, Rewire, and Tip Tap Records. 2020 sees her Kindisch debut ‚Get In The Vortex’.

ORIGINS RCRDS unveils a brand-new series this March entitled 'This Is ORIGINS' as label boss Josh Butler welcomes Demuir, Flashmob, Michel de Hey and JPA for Volume 1.

Founded in late-2016, Josh Butler's ORIGINS RCRDS imprint continues to go from strength to strength as one of house music's most consistent and impressive growing labels, welcoming the likes of Kerri Chandler, Groove Armada and Richy Ahmed through to rising talents including ANOTR, Ben Rau and Dennis Quin across the catalogue to date. Having closed the year with the debut of Butler's own Timezones series, early 2020 will also welcome a second new addition to the label's output as we see the launch of a new various artist series entitled 'This Is ORIGINS', with the first instalment welcoming a debut collaboration between Demuir and Butler himself, plus three label debuts from Flashmob, Michel de Hey and JPA.

Butler kicks things off alongside rising Toronto talent Demuir as they deliver the slick 'Tropicana', a slinking house cut guided by blossoming melodies, bumping bass licks and icy hats throughout. Next, Flashmob delivers the first of three label debuts with 'The Island', a driving production armed with crisp snares and distorted vocal snippets, whilst Michael de Hey's lively 'Garyamoi' sees the introduction of rich chord stabs atop of rolling organic percussion to great effect. To close, rising Melbourne talent JPA reveals his contribution 'Here Now' - a dubby closer fusing bright synth lines and further resonant vocals to wrap things up in impressive fashion.
