If you’re a Montreal local, chances are you’ve heard of @00-AM already. The collective originated from humble beginnings, just a bunch of good pals coming together to throw hearty dance parties. However, over the past two years they’ve really built for themselves a more-than-impressive portfolio of acts they’ve brought to Montreal – from the Black Madonna to Palms Trax, Avalon Emerson to Mood II Swing… the list goes on (and on). Apart from gifting us with these international treats, 00:AM also run quirky ‘Pub Club’ numbers; they’re a fantastic celebration and a showcase of our local talent. Having recently had their efforts recognized at large via a Piknic Électronik debut playing alongside Roman Flügel and Shanti Celeste, the 00:AM group has now taken yet another big step in their continuous contribution to the scene – they’re starting up a record label.

Forthcoming September 8, 00AM001 will be the first imprint of the new label’s projected series of Various Artists 12”s. Embodying their ethos of unifying Montreal locals with international friends, 00AM001 features familiar names Adam Feingold and Priori tucked in cosily between Australia’s Mike Midnight and AshTreJenkins of LA.

Opening up the 12” on A1 is ‘Twilight Zone’ by @MikeMidnight, a name that’s been popping up quite regularly over the past few years on more than a couple of Perth’s party bills. The track makes for a smooth mover, building slowly from creamy mid-bass drones, with delicately ascending arpeggios on keys and graceful crescendos on majestic synths. From what we can tell, the Perth producer is quite the aficionado for raw jungley breaks – the more subtle and refined edition, though – and this is teased from the get-go, with lightly articulated high-hats working up to a loose and natural jazzy jam, ideally paired with sensual improvisations on the sax. Short but sweet, the track fades out just as it starts to peak after an intermission of a bouncy tribal melodic motif, and we’re left thirsty for what’s next.

U and Me at 3:03 is the debut EP by VINSON, a vocalist from Detroit now based in LA. This project hosts a variety of tracks featuring a blend of deep house, hip-hop, and futuristic soul. He says this record is "for people that like to be at the rave but also in their feelings." The name 303 is not only a reference to the bassline synth which was used throughout the making of this record, but also the time of night when someone would be at the after-hours club or at home with a partner for moments of reflection. Guest appearances by electronic soul artist Kesswa and soul artist Sophiyah E of Detroit make instant classics on "Moving U" and "Love The Sunshine", while VINSON sets his smooth vocals atop acid grooves on the title track, as well as the first single, "Distractions". Influenced by and paying homage to the origins of techno and house, rooted in the warehouses of Detroit and Chicago, birthed from POC LBGTQ ravers.
