Maroki launches the Spitskool Records imprint with 3 cuts of absolutely devastating club orientated sounds. 

Spitskool is a platform for Maroki and Coralie AKA ‘MXC’ and friends to release their music that perhaps wouldn’t fit elsewhere. Although it seems there is now a home at last.

The opening track; No - turned heads and shredded ears when first played at Haai & Daniel Avery’s renowned Junction 2 set back during Covid club closures - sparking a frantic online ID search. It has laid dormant since but cropped up in a handful of mixes and clubs around the world played by such selectors as GigiFM, Mad Miran and MSJY. It has since been re-mixed and mastered and is now coming out as the opening title of this EP. ‘No’ is a no-bullshit, straight up minimal broken techno affair. An arpeggiated bass rips through the track with surgical percussion lending support when needed. A crispy amen break keeps the piece rattling along with reese basses searing throughout.

‘AC4XT’ is a sleeping giant, again using the powerful rips and an earth shattering break and a sub that is oh so reminiscent of the old DMZ days but wholly different. The synth lines are tactile - loud, almost overpowering at times but once they disperse the space that is left is wide and compelling.

Finally Tremor - the clattering foray into Maroki’s chaotic mind. Techno in its simplest form but not. Sonically comparable to scaffolders losing their minds and dropping the structure in time to a 4 to the floor beat. Injections of pure noise and reprocessed breaks bring this track to fruition as a peak time destructive force.

On remix duties we have Coralie - known for his incredible release ‘Barney’s Maze’ on Quoth, which was subsequently picked up by editors at both Phonica Records & NinjaTune last year as being one of the most slept on releases of the year. We also have Tectonic regular & early mentor to Maroki ‘Elmono’ who has awoken from a slumber while mastering the dark arts of modular sound design in Lisbon for the last 5 years. Both throwing their hats into the ring for this series.

Coralie’s flip is as powerful as the original & showcases his textural and stylistic approach to forward thinking bass music. Elmono sticks true to his form and serves a cut that is beyond perfect. Walking the tight line between minimal and powerful simultaneously while sticking to his signature sound.

We also have Maroki & Coralie pitching in as MXC for not one but two remixes of Tremor - both evolved versions of the original that are standalone tracks in their own right. The minimal edit is an ode to their collaborative work together thus far. Racking bass and percussion into scorching sonic slop. The 2nd edit takes the original somewhere else entirely. Broken beats, confused sounds and hypnotic experimental grooves lead this down a very different path. An insight into what’s to come from the illusive duo later this year.

Keep you eyes and ears peeled for the physical release as there will only be a run of 30 limited edition pressings with limited edition artwork from the fabled dutch illustrator ’Sjondebaron’

For their ninth release, Redstone Press welcomes Tano to the roster, accompanied by remixes from Toumba & Delay Grounds. Having all embarked on making music around the same time and connecting through sharing said music, it felt only fitting to bring them together for this release.

Delay Grounds' remix of "Blend of Poetry" closes out the EP, taking it to new stratospheric heights. Elemental staccato synths hover above expertly balanced drums and bass, reaching a fever pitch of ecstatic euphoria. Through the subtle introduction of airy percussion, the track culminates in a classic, tranced-out breakdown adorned with bright luminescent horns and pulsating sub-bass.

Release Date: September 1st 2023

art-aud is back to present his second release of the main series, after booming with the Secret Rave one. This release comes from a really important icon in the italian electronic-techno scene, a person that from the beginning of the 90s helped form what we enjoy now through his music, parties and writings. His name is Andrea Benedetti, aka Sprawl. Over the years he provided help to Lory D in creating Sounds Never Seen, founded his label Plasmek, created a fanzine called Tunnel and a distribution company with Marco Passarani, to name a few. This ep contains three tracks of pure electronic excursion and a remix by the Rephlex-twins D'Arcangelo. The track "Electrome" was originally released in 1994 on his own label and now, after nearly 23 years, sees the light again with a remaster.  

Mastered by Radioactive Man
