The Mysidian label drops Ftzzgrld’s first EP of original tunes and they’re an absolute treat.

1993 features 3 deep numbers and tops it off with Roy Comanchero (Running Back, Alliance Upholstery) of Osaka, Japan’s remix of the title track.

All the right influences from ’93 are there while still sounding fresh! Being one of our favorite records of 2021 so far and it just being Ftzzgrld’s first EP on vinyl we might be getting ahead of ourselves when we say we’re already excited to hear more from both Ftzzgrld & Roy Comanchero!

DJ and producer Malcolm came to our attention through his tastefully curated label, Global Warming Records, a platform that are making the end of the world sound just as they like it — just how we like it too.

Since starting the imprint Malcolm has brought friends and new producers into the fold, the likes of Ouai Stéphane, N-ERGY, Jon Beige and Sutja Gutierrez, who have all showcased their own take on dub-wise atmospherics, dystopian bass experiments and heavy syncopated rhythms.

Freshly moved from Paris to London (literally - he got off the plane a couple of days ago), Malcolm brings a touch of the dystopian and cinematic to his own productions too, which have landed on labels like Abstrack and Biologic.

Not one to churn out mixes regularly, he's prepared something very special for us. Weaving together obscurities and unreleased edits finished especially for this, Malcolm shares the moods and sounds at the core of what he does.

Okay Vivian - Taşın Kanayan Kalbi [Video in description]

With support from Dave Clarke, DJ Bone, Ben Sims, DJ Rolando, Truncate, Slam and many more.

Rick Silver & James Vernon’s fairly young but highly promising label has been releasing the highest standard of stripped back and stylish, dubbed-out sonics and have carved out a little section for themselves in the electronic music scene after honing a dynamic and appealing production style. Previous releases from the two label bosses and enigmatic artist Yallahs have captured the attention from various established names and they continue to show their flair for all things raw and exciting on their ‘Stories, Chapter One’ release.

James Vernon’s ‘Web Flight’ rounds off the EP with rough-edged modulations, looping rhythms and haunting pads that spiral in and out of focus with pure eccentricity.

Premiere:  James Vernon - Web Fight

Premiering "Running Parallel" by Sistema Aero, , the collaborative effort between Charles Taciturn and xenonyms label boss GFXIII. Out on 18th February as a two-tracker single via xenonyms

The lead track sets off the genre bending mood of the release by incorporating distorted cumbia and jungle breaks inside a dreamy, buoyant atmosphere. In contrast 'Tierra Maldita' reveals itself as a sinister four-to-the-floor mutation full of hypnotic synths and eerie vocal sections.
