OUT NOW

Club Glow Vol.2 by Mani Festo & LMajor [OUT NOW]

Koehler was hurled headlong flaming from the ethereal sky. This is his first offering for the ESP Institute. Side A recalls the hazy memory of an ear-worm chant heard over a decade ago on the streets of Thailand, a melody that since haunted the artist and has finally been exorcised by his own hand in the shape of 'Melencolia V'. Somewhere between an enchanted bashment and a sailor’s watering hole, Koehler found a gargantuan kick drum that lands solely on the 4, slammed it together with a wide pulsing bassline and brutalized Dancehall snare, then laced it all up with his elusive synth melody. Add to this a generous sprinkle of finely-ground cosmic dust and we’re all tripping the light fantastic. On the flip side, the artist buckles up for a rough and rapid-paced journey with 'Invidiosa' — a relentless snare scrapes, gouges and corrodes over 7 minutes, coupling with a simplistic bass loop and swiftly marauding through a demented assembly line, accumulating various nuts and bolts of instrumentation along the way — an undeniable dancefloor exciter for those hours when the club becomes unhinged, dancing becomes raving, and slightly more audacious folk can channel their inner truth. These two songs will have you question your existence.

Apologies for the delay, I hope it was worthwhile in the end. 

Thank you to Marc Day for the beautiful artwork, and to Matt Colton for the mastering.

The sights and sounds of a summer afternoon converge to create the most memorable mental photos of a town where no one wants to leave, filled with the sounds no one will ever forget. Childhood laughter is accompanied by a distant surf crashing upon a pebbled shoreline under the occasional chimes of clock tower bells. Capture that place in time the entire family will remember for generations to come. https://www.michigan.org/kids-attractions

We’re back a little over a year since the first instalment of Club Glow and this time we’ve got 2 of our close friends contributing to the next tape in our series.
The A side is brought to you by already Club Glow affiliated Mani Festo. As well as being responsible for the artwork and aesthetics for the label, he delivers an 11 track LP that traverses the sonics of the hardcore breakbeat continuum.
The B side is brought by WNCL alumni and new Club Glow recruit LMajor. Offering up a 17 track LP that spans a range of BPM’s and wouldn’t feel out of place 30 years ago, its jam packed with bangers, interludes and DJ tools.
The tape is limited to 100 copies, which come with a A5 rave flyer designed by Mani Festo and the first 25 orders get a limited edition Club Glow glowstick.
All tape purchases also include the digital files including the two sides expertly mixed by our artists as well. All digital purchase include both albums and the mixed sides.
Digitals only available on Bandcamp, and tapes only available on Bandcamp, Idle hands (Bristol) and Disc Shop Zero (Tokyo).
