PROXIMITY II, the second instalment of the annual Pure Space compilation series. Across twenty one different artists, the release finds synergy through surging electro, percussive techno and experimental breakbeat.

Together the artists put forward a collection of contemporary electronics that provide a wealth of complexity for the ear while shaping the sound of local music.

Devoted Pure Space listeners are joined by new producers, friends and some of our most aspired Australian producers to form this exciting release.

100% of proceeds will be donated to Aboriginal Legal Services; based in Redfern it is the first Aboriginal Legal Service in Australia and the first free legal assistance service in the country. www.alsnswact.org.au

[PREMIERE] Deception

Sub-Par Oil

Artist: Pugilist, Otik, Appleblim, Commix
Title: eleVAte Vol.1
Label: DEXT Recordings
Cat #: DEXTVA001
Format: 12” Vinyl & Digital
Release Date: 5th June 2020

A1: Pugilist - Eclipse
A2: Otik - Apollon
B1: Commix - New Moves
B2: Appleblim - Hydrothermal Vents

Boasting a discography of over 18 releases, inclusive of composers such as Special Request and Mark Broom, through to Nightwave and Hodge, DEXT Recordings celebrate 5 years with a V/A compilation from label affiliates Commix (Endian), Appleblim, Otik, and Pugilist.

'eleVAte Vol. 1' explores the more profound and invigorating, sonic excursions that the label's artists have to offer.

Fresh from an EP on Midland's Intergraded imprint, Otik returns for a disjointed offering with paranoid synth work and an arpeggio that fizzes through the tweeters.

Pugilist offers up dub stabs, analogue sirens with blips of space echo on 'Eclipse', with a garage swing and Rhodes, contrasting a ruff and ready sound palate of bass weight.

Metalheadz signee Commix, (AKA Endian), returns to DEXT for a tumbling UK bass track with swung percussion and side-chained textures of rising crackle.

Skull Disco, Applepips boss and dubstep icon Appleblim, returns from a recent album on Sneaker Social Club, offering 'Hydrothermal Vents', that sees him taint a 126bpm framework with his dubstep-tinged roots, providing room for the groove to move.

eleVAte Vol.1

DEXTVA001 - PUGILIST, OTIK, COMMIX, APPLEBLIM  - eleVAte Vol.1 (CLIPS)

Growing up in Milton Keynes, the largest of the "new towns" outside of London designed and built in the 1960s, perhaps explains why producer Nicholas Worrall is subconsciously drawn to clearly delineated sonic structures and flawed techno utopianism, two concepts that are ever present in both his sound and aesthetic approach to music.

Wordcolour (@wordcolour) was formed just two years ago, at a time when Worrall was habitually cutting up and splicing human voice samples ripped from YouTube memes, film dialogues and musique concrète tapes.

The first artistic demonstration of these ideas arrived in 2019 via his mixtape “I Want To Tell You Something” for the Blowing Up The Workshop platform. This unique set immediately grabbed the attention and support of the specialized music press and media, including Pitchfork and Resident Advisor.

“Tell Me Something” is Wordcolour’s official debut EP and heads straight for the dance floor. It is comprised of an unusual melting pot of influences that fuse the UK club sound, post-dubstep and a style akin to Paul Lansky's ‘90s musique concrète. “Tell Me Something” offers a vibrant leftfield, avant-garde techno and edgy electro, all immersed in the vast cosmos of the human voice.

“Tell Me Something” will be released at the end of July on vinyl and all digital formats. Reserve your copy now at www.lapsusrecords.cat.

The Third Mind

BAKK017 | GEN-Y / G.F. - The Third Mind

https://shawcuts.bandcamp.com/album/five-element-ninjas-remixed
Title: Five Element Ninjas - Remixed
Artist: Farron
Remixers: Pugilist/Substance/Jonas Friedlich/Realitycheck
Label: Shaw Cuts
Cat.: SC013
Date: 25/09/2020
Distributed by @triplevisionnl

Tracklisting:
A1: Liquid Shorts (Pugilist Remix)
A2: Contaship (Substance Remix)
B1: Brooklyn Banks (Jonas Friedlich Remix)
B2: It’s Only 4 Life (Realitycheck Remix)

Infotext:
To challenge the leader of the five element ninjas, Shaw Cuts lines up a heavy squad on the next record, armed with versatile remixes of Farron’s „Five Element Ninjas“ EP: Pugilist, Substance, Jonas Friedlich and Realitycheck. 
First off the mark, Pugilist launches into battle dealing forceful blows with his version of „Liquid Shorts“. Whirlwind breaks, sharp drum patterns and cavernous chords, lacerate the ninja leader. The heat is on! 
Substance rolls in to support, shredding the field with his remix of „Contaship“. With blood-spattered pads, a gargantuan rolling groove and harmonic synth elements, he brings the villain to his knees. 
Jonas Friedlich blazes in with his remake of „Brooklyn Banks“, catching the leader off-guard with dirty Hip-Hop rhythmics, swirling vocals and twist of the original’s lead synth. The leader lurches forward... 
Realitycheck furiously steps into the clash. His remix version of „It’s Only 4 Life“ circles the field, its propelling rhythm and floating percussions closing in on the enemy. 
The target surrounded, attacking from four sides with full force and allegiance, they execute the ninja leader in one sweep. 
The battle leaves them with deep scars, but suffering, like fate and death, is part of life. And through it, the strongest souls emerge.
