The last track from my Shall Not Fade EP is out today! Definitely the moodiest of the three. 2020 (and seemingly 2021) didn't offer much, if anything in terms of certainty for anyone and I found myself pretty frozen in any and all decisions, even down to little things like what to watch or eat etc. I'm sure a lot of you had similar experiences, hopefully things are looking up now ❤️ Hope you enjoy the music xxx

============================

Laurence Guy returns to Shall Not Fade with his much-anticipated third EP, adding to last year’s massively successful ‘The Sun Is Warm and Directly Above You’ and ‘Your Good Times Will Come’. The London-based producer has amassed a global audience of listeners, all united in their appreciation for his luscious, upbeat house music and an outstanding discography of releases via imprints like: Ninja Tune, Late Night Tales, Studio Barnhus and Mule Musique.

While still unmistakably Laurence Guy’s signature style of delicately constructed, sample-heavy dance music, this EP carries a sombre note, reflective of the confusing times in which it was made. The A-side’s ‘Love Theme For The Morning After’ maintains a positive and danceable atmosphere, an ode to the moments of clarity and contentment we grasp in the afterglow. Musically, it is an ecstatic build-up of chords that leave you breathless, with a rhythm that pulses as consistently as a heartbeat throughout.  
By comparison to this joyfully glittering track, the B-side deals with more difficult emotions. Throughout ‘Mutual Excitement’, barely distinguishable vocal samples overlap each other in a hazy clamour, whilst natural keys play a bittersweet melody, pondering the uncertainty of a new relationship. Guy says of the final track, ‘Certain (To A Certain Extent)’ “2020 was a hard year to be certain of anything, I found myself frozen in pretty much every decision I had to make”. The song, a stripped-back melody built from a low fidelity jazz sound palette, is not just an exploration of the sense of uncertainty 2020 gave us, but expresses Guy’s acceptance of living without certainty. This soothing message is at the core of the EP, managing to create a sense of hope during an unsettled time.

London's Partner Music delivers his first set of originals following a slew of edits for the likes of XVI Records and Krywald & Farrer's Repsies imprint - and it's been well worth the wait.

'Bhanga Slinger' takes you on funk-laden trip to Bollywood, 'Soul Sisters' heads into woozy deep house territory and the title track is an irresistibly cute slice of late-night loungy disco. Label boss Ben Gomori straps a rocket to 'Bhanga Slinger' on his remix, beefing it up suitably while retaining the core charisma of the original.

Partner Music - I Never Said It Was Disco

PREMIERE: Partner Music - I Never Said It Was Disco

Parisian producer DJ @atlance follows up an appearance on Happiness Energy’s various artist compilation late last year with five sun-soaked house cuts on @runningoutofsteam, just in time for January coming to an end.

‘After The Storm’ maintains its housey aesthetic, but this time on an electro-tipped 2-step; instantly recognisable vocal samples, dreamscape aesthetics and meditative breaks uniting on a blissed-out trip.

In Search of Lost Time

Music’s power is in creating community, and this is the essence of Laurence Guy’s work. The London-based DJ and producer’s motto is ‘music to make you feel feelings’: whether that’s comfort, nostalgia, bittersweetness or melancholy. His sound has an unmistakable warmth while being squarely aimed at the dancefloor: samples fit into sprawling keys, and dusty drums thud under lush chords. Amid a string of EPs, Guy has released two acclaimed albums; 2017’s blissful house LP Saw You For The First Time and 2023’s Living Like There’s No Tomorrow, But Killing Yourself In The Process, gracing labels including Studio Barnhus, Ninja Tune, Shall Not Fade and more, now signed to Future Classic. He’s now armed with a stash of hip hop and filter house influenced dance tracks, like the Jamie xx-tipped ‘Hey Baby’ and the groove-laden ‘Most Perfect People (Are Mostly Not Perfect)’ that are already soundtracking people’s best life moments.
