In the year 2017, rogue agent Eliza Mitchell silently infiltrated government systems and databases across the globe using a mysterious audio file known as "Alert."

Now, she's back for one final mission, deep behind enemy lines - this time with the assistance of a small handful of embedded operatives.

We are more than delighted to welcome Martini to W133. After appearances on Kindergarten Records and Early Reflex, the NYC-based producer delivers three uniquely well-crafted originals for the Berlin imprint.

Kicking off the EP on A1 is "Liquorice." The track starts with captivating ambient sounds and playfully develops into a breaky tribal adventure, paving the way for the EP title-giving track that is "Aqua Pura." You can feel the power of crystal-clear water bursting through your speakers, and tension building while the track develops. Mechanical noises and sci-fi sounds decorate the bass-heavy yet also playful baseline

Indent lands on Meld Records with a captivating four-track EP - plus a dubby flip by Small Crab.

Shimmering with club-ready brilliance, each track unfolds with sonic intricacies. Indent blends sublime textures with drums and bass that perforate the amalgamation of the soundscape.

In May, longtime Vief collaborator halle o’malley got in touch with an idea. She’d come across the Instagram of a 17-year old Palestinian musician called Samih, who’s life has been torn apart as a result of Israel's recent onslaught on the Gaza strip. Their home destroyed, Samih and his family were forced to flee to a refugee camp in Rafah. During their displacement, Samih has gone viral posting videos of himself singing and playing a borrowed oud.
 
Having spoken to Samih and received his blessing, Halle planned to sample a video of his and donate the proceeds from the sales of that track to a GoFundMe set up for him and his family. Halle approached the label with the idea of scaling this project up by inviting other producers to sample Samih themselves or provide original tracks of their own.
 
Madhoun now stands as a compilation containing four productions sampling Samih, an interlude, and nine other dance tracks generously donated by producers from across the world.

Emma Helena dives into diverse pools of bass-centric tracks for this dynamic set. In her own words: 

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on music’s role in our scene, especially on how today’s collective sense of crisis shapes its aesthetics. Electronic music is booming, fulfilling its promise of providing an escape from societal pressures, even if only briefly.

Right now, even “underground” electronic dance music contrasts sharply with a world marked by uncertainty — delivering euphoria and a lighthearted aesthetic just as it becomes more commercialized. But I see a counter-movement growing, one that is redefining the underground aesthetic to mirror our human condition. In this mix, I wanted to explore a glimpse of that.

Cheers,
Emma

This Austrian powerhouse’s journey into the world of underground dance music started in her teen years, and she’s been on a mission to sprinkle her hype and energy to all the club kids out there ever since. 

Her secret? A bold blend of global sounds that breaks free from traditional genre and tempo limits. Rooted in techno, her sets promise one thing for sure: making bodies sweat and booties shake and most importantly, always cultivating and embracing a vibe. 

Off the decks, Emma is a committed advocate for feminist values within the electronic music community, bringing her fierce dedication and vision to all she does.

The Dekmantel Selectors compilation series is set to continue with a highly anticipated edition curated by Joy Orbison. First announced in 2015 when the Selectors project was unveiled, the fourth compilation in the series finds the singular UK talent curating a sort of tribute to his home country and its rich musical history.

Like many of us, Joy Orbison (a.k.a. Peter O'Grady) is a product of his environment. Based in London, he's keenly aware of the UK's unique musical landscape and the role it's played in shaping his own artistic vision. Growing up, the sounds of garage, jungle and dubstep all made an impression on him, but O'Grady knows that the roots of this music go back much further. "Soundsystem culture is a thread that runs through almost everything here," he says. "It's had a huge effect on me, sometimes without me even knowing it."

In keeping with previous Selectors compilations, O'Grady's contribution to the series is not a mix CD, but a collection of hand-picked tracks from his own archives. Touching on everything from shuffling garage and loopy techno to booming jungle and a number of distinctly British hybrids, it's a diverse collection to be sure, but O'Grady prefers to focus on what ties these tracks together. "We're a lot more focused on BPM and genre these days," he says, "but I can honestly say that didn't really cross my mind while I was compiling this. In my mind, all these tracks have a lot in common."

"What I do is a direct result of this music and I'm indebted to the sociological factors that brought it to life," explains O’Grady. "The UK at its best is a celebration of diverse cultures intertwining and creating beautiful results. Hopefully this collection of music can document a piece of that. Now more than ever, it seems important to acknowledge and celebrate this."

On connaît Simo Cell pour ses solides sorties sur des labels aussi variés que Livity Sound ou Wisdom Teeth. Ses apparitions derrière les platines constituent autant de moments très particuliers où l'audace le dispute à la dextérité. S'il a signé en 2018 un EP sur BFDM, ça n'est clairement pas par hasard. D'accointance certaine avec la belle bande lyonnaise, il n'est pas étonnant alors de le voir s'associer avec Judaah pour cette édition. Dérapages dancehall du futur, bass music sous tous les angles et dans tous les formats, fièvre et rhum à tous les étages, c'est un programme tropical au fort potentiel de chauffe que cette rencontre nous réserve.
