Returning to Needwant Records for their second releases is UK-based Electronic duo with two-tracker ‘Proboscis / Plateau’.

‘Proboscis’ is beautifully progressive with big-hitting kicks and arpeggiating chords that flutter over the instrumentation. Breakdowns, rolling snares, shaky percussion also comprises this track, and the combination is killer. ‘Plateau’ is equally progressive and boasts a euphoric, otherworldly breakdown before unleashing its entrancing breakbeat crescendo. Both tracks are heady and are a powerful introspective duo.

Hot off a string of records released on Coloring Lessons, Bliss Point, People Of Earth, and Off Track Recordings, Malik Hendricks returns to Darker Than Wax with Tessera – a fresh twelve of dancefloor cuts tinged with broken rhythms and funk-infused melodies. No stranger to the label, Malik had contributed a track on 2020’s Bodyclock Vol.1, and we are pleased to share this solo offering, backed with a remix by the hotly-tipped James Bangura.

Recorded in Brooklyn in 2020 and 2021, Tessera marks a shift in the American-born, Lisbon-based producers sonic journey. Normally a sample-focused producer, Malik’s ongoing collaborations with musicians John Barera and John Silas impacted the artist’s sound with their funky, improvisational approach and pushed him to explore his own musicality in a deeper way. The result is Tessera, four cuts of organic, modern dance music traversing shades of Midwest funk and techno, and signifying a new chapter in Malik’s craft.

Diving into the record, first single ‘Switchback’ goes in heavy with an electro-fused flavour, pairing smooth chords with raw drums. ‘Fiyahverkx’ is an 808-heavy broken techno heater, while ‘The Money Dance’ invokes daytime house vibes with a chunky analogue bassline and funky synth lines throughout. ‘Totem’ channels a rolling, percussive atmosphere, flipped by James Bangura into a driving late-night floor filler.

The future looks bright for Malik Hendricks as he jumps from strength to strength, and we are elated to provide a home to this record that marks an evolution in the artist’s sound.

3 EPs Preview – Forgetting, LA, Space Race

'Tantrum' is based on a single synth pattern that evolves by slightly changing it's relative start point. 
It's meant to evoke the feelings of a restless angry outburst.

The video, like the one for Trébucher, uses the cover artwork as the basis. The process is the same but the start point of the evolution is different.

PNL004 | Inside Hour

June 5th: For Bandcamp day today we will be donating all proceeds made from our compilation album Inside Hour to @blmuk Fund - we will also match all purchases of the album as donations.

We understand more than small one-off gestures is required and that to genuinely be able to address these issues it requires long term structural support of the cause.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All profits to the NHS.

A 10-track compilation featuring 8 artists part of our close circle. The project is diverse throughout and hopes to shine a light through this period of isolation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We've not done a compilation since Ample back in 2017 - that was probably our first major release. Between then and now the idea of doing a compilation hadn't quite pushed Panel to what we wanted it to be. We'd get these incredible tracks in, and try to weave them into wider more considered projects, but this idea of an interconnected compilation never came together. Other projects - Anamnesis, Settle, Reprezent, etc - took priority. Then, just as the pieces for a compilation came together, COVID happened. And with it, a narrative and purpose for Inside Hour was created.

We know the NHS isn't a charity, nor should it be treated as such. Rather than public fundraising be treated as the norm, it should be able to rely on state responsibility. But this situation is incredibly difficult for many people, and we all have friends and family working the frontlines. As everything continues to unfold, we've been extremely lucky to have this project to escape to, allowing us to help keep ourselves and everyone associated creatively occupied. As such, for creating this space that has given us this privilege of escapism, we will be donating all the proceeds from this release to the NHS (and avoid Virgin Giving).

This compilation hopes to be an outlet, a light and an escapism for all of you through this period, just as it has been for all of us. But we also think it signifies the togetherness we hope everyone's been experiencing in recent months.

Keep safe,
- Panel

The Melbourne underground house scene has a bright new voice in Loure. With his latest EP, Outta 106, dropping on his own label, Nothin Personal, Loure establishes himself as a radically inventive house musician who leans as much into neo-soul and free-form jazz as deep house. Tapping into a stunning, kinetic livewire of soul-infused, effusive house-jazz that incorporates live instrumentation, Loure’s music cuts straight to the heart and burrows itself there with warm, gentle ease.Across 6 gorgeous tracks, Loure displays his innate ear for swooning melodies and improvisatory instrumental jam-outs. On penultimate B-side track, “Heavyweight Sinner”, Loure dials down the sky-razing intensity of the previous 4 tracks and lets listeners be carried off on a more relaxing vibe. Coming off the heels of the drum’n’bass and sax-filled B-side opener, “The Walk Home”, this track fades in with a warping synth and delicate keys that then segue into a drum pattern and warbly bassline that would fit right at home on a Herbie Hancock record. This track comes as a welcome respite from the EP’s pervasive, soaring emotional catharsis. However, this is not to say the track feels lifeless or is any less impactful. Even as it gains momentum with a sublime bass-solo at its peak, the track never gets ahead of itself, perpetually keeping the listener in a tranquil state to luxuriate in. Loure’s music, and this track in particular, represents a subset of house music that transcends a merely vibe-setting idiom. Utilizing key elements of this style, Loure imbues this track with so much personality, dexterity, and soul, it feels essential in the context of the EP, and moreover, for anyone looking to explore a more jazz-inflected strain of house.
