BOP DEPOT "NEW YEAR SAME ME" EDITION

On ACEN027, Amazinggaijin follows a series of releases on his Good Delivery Record imprint with four experimental club tracks for All Centre.

The EP opens with Construction Block. The track is inspired by Amazinggaijin’s stay in Berlin’s Rudolfkiez, an area which has been undergoing heavy gentrification, surrounding him with construction projects. Subtle sound design morphs underneath a series of driving kicks, before a machinic hi-hat pattern reminiscent of a jackhammer destroying the pavement propels the track forward. Shifts in reverb mutate the space of the track, building a captivating and disorientating atmosphere in this stripped-down drum tool.

On the second track Cacophonie, Amazinggaijin is joined by Irish producer Lighght. Cacophonie, which means “a harsh discordant mixture of sounds” in French, is a study on drawing on different sources of sound and making them work together (including a Virtual Sitar that Gaijin gives heavy treatment). It’s a match made in heaven between the Irish & French producers, as they push the boundaries between electro-acoustic and club music. The track begins with an entrancing, hypnotic melody created by tweaking a Korg Volca sample machine before a compelling drum pattern is introduced with subtle pitch-shifted hi-hats. A metallic, percussive melody enters the mix, morphing throughout the track and gradually growing in intensity.

Oxygen Tank begins with the same hypnotic chord progression but raises the tempo, bringing a grime influence into the drum programming and introducing a sino-grime melody. The rhythms of the melodies and drums shift around each other throughout, and a soaring siren-like synth enters the mix towards the end of the track.

The record ends with digital-only track The Strength Within, an ambient record underpinned by an atmospheric droning pad, occasionally interrupted by pieces of intricate, subtle sound design. The Franco-Congolese producer captures what loneliness induced by an atomized society who “celebrated” one year under a global pandemic feels like.

Oxygen Tank EP is available across all digital platforms as well as limited dubplate record from May 21st.

On ACEN 017 London producer hmurd joins the All Centre ranks following releases on TT & Cherche Encore.

Title track ‘Low Grade Plastics’ continues with the sparse landscapes and dizzying atmospheres explored in hmurds productions so far. Opening with spartan drum choices, heavy kicks and cantering hi-hats sit at the tracks core whilst heavily processed percussion and FX make fleeting appearances. With eight on beat snare drum repetitions the track descends into it’s main theme. An austere four note melody, with frenetic kicks firing off around it as a loosely anchored snare provides a woozy half time rhythm. As the track progresses further FX heighten the sense of tension building around the tracks core, with a single oscillating bass note providing a nod to the tracks dubstep influences.

B side ‘Beighton Champ’ takes a different slant to its counterpart. Rapid hi-hats and percussion signal the tracks beginning and create a rhythmic sense of security, before being dispelled as the track collapses into a series of erratic de-quantised percussion breaks. Suddenly the confusion is broken, melting away into familiar percussion patterns accompanied by an angular melody courtesy of hmurd collaborator Emile Frankel. The melody is suddenly broken by a rising granular sound which signals an abrupt switch to a straighter beat, with kicks, claps and breath sounds carrying the groove.

‘Low Grade Plastics’ is available across all platforms from the 5th of June.
