This is a true Los Angeles takeover that we have here. LA-based artist @urulu is joining forces with @thesethingstaketime a label also based out in the city of angels, founded by B. Hayes in 2016 and here releasing its 5th EP with "Urulu - Metroid". 

Through recent releases on Voyage Recordings, Kalahari Oyster Cult and Tartelet, Urulu demonstrated a complete devotion to true Electro sounds... and this is where the label and artist are crossing paths. Indeed, after a series of VAs and a couple EPs, These Things Take Time pursues its exploration of North-American electronic music with this new EP. 

"Metroid" has a beautiful deep house vibe while also sharing a lot of similarities with the Detroit legacy. Our pick up from the release is "Static Dancer", a truly high-powered track and a perfect example of that shared heritage from the US sounds. 

We've been following Urulu since... well.. the begining of his career - yeah, we're talking about his early releases on Exploited - and we are really pleased to see how his sound is shaping and the direction that he's been taking since the last few years. 

"Metroid" is a strong must-have, so go get it!

95Bones - Family Matters

Last year, FSQ was eager to work with Afterlife following up on our 2017 remix of “How Does it Feel”, so we asked if we could remix something from their 2018 album, "String Theory". We chose the opening track "Give it Up" because it has this wonderful spiral of trumpets that build throughout the track that are also anchored by descending melancholy chords and a chugging bass line. 
For FSQ's "Give it Up" remix, Chuck Da Fonk wrote new synth bass and guitar parts and then passed the track on to One Era who added a full stack of percussion including bongos, claves, cowbell, claps and new sinister high pitched synths to dance around Afterlife's original string and trumpet parts. One Era also added driving interlocking funk guitar parts and some Fender slap bass lines.
Our analog production process takes time and in the case of "Give it Up" FSQ, we missed Afterlife's deadline for the single release in 2018. So this FSQ Caribbean Disco remix for Afterlife has been an orphan for about a year but we finally found a home for it just in time for this brilliant summer.
Every year Midnight Riot Records offers a summer time compilation called "Balearic Headspace" and the past few years FSQ has contributed tunes to the annual album. Riot label boss Yam Who? is extremely supportive of FSQ so we thought "Balearic Headspace" would be the perfect home for our Afterlife remix. Afterlife also has a new 2019 album out now called "Everything is Now" which everyone should support - our favorite cut on it is "Berimbau". 
What's next for FSQ? Our FSQ full length album debut on Soul Clap Records, titled  "Reprise Tonight" is due out this winter. "Reprise Tonight" features appearances by George Clinton, Nona Hendryx, Fonda Rae, Billy Bass Nelson of Funkadelic and Dolette McDonald.
Dolette is featured on our latest FSQ release with Midnight Riot Records, "I Zimbra", a super funky cover of the Talking Heads classic. "I Zimbra" was recently released on vinyl 12" featuring Alan Dixon and Soul Clap remixes and is available at Juno UK and other music retailers.

Balearic Headspace, Vol. 4

PREMIERE : Afterlife - Give It Up (FSQ Caribbean Disco Remix)

A strong horse gallops over the rolling hills of the Bittersweet Strasse. As the mysterious stallion chases across the sheer endless plains of oriental allure, it finally reaches the elephantine peak; where the Gulyabani Blues converges with a mysterious cordyceps species, whom are particularly abundant and diverse in humid temperate and tropical forests.

AS SMOOTH AS delivers a powerful debut on BELLY DANCE SERVICES. Concepted for worldwide belly dance fun, the Belgrade/Istanbul based producer Sertac Ogul takes us on a steady joyride through dark wavy synth loops, rolling percussions and intense drumbeats.

Gabriola "Earth Awakes / Net of Being"

Artist: Airgoose
Title: Outernational Wah EP 
Label: Seven Hills
Cat No: SHRR03
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist: 
A1. Outernational Wah
A2. Wah Beats
B1. Programmable Rhythmer (Top Gear Mix)

Seven Hills is pleased to be reissuing 3 sought after tracks from Glyn Bush's mid 90s side project Airgoose, perhaps better known as part of Brummie dub/reggae-techno group Rockers Hi-Fi, Outernational Wah shot up in price recently following a resurgence in its popularity symptomatic of the current trend of digging old obscure records. Extreme amounts of sleaze on this dusty, strange deep house track, with some very unique production make Outernational Wah a timeless dance-floor bomb, finally getting the recognition it deserves. The flip side, Programmable Rhythmer (Top Gear Mix) is taken from the only other record made under the Airgoose alias, similarly weird, raspy synth lines and a deep plodding groove.
