TSTD EDITS 16: Vibes4YourSoul - Melhor Assim (Side A from Maracatu E.P., olive 7 Inch)

Joutro Mundo - On Da Groove - Preview** out on Editorial

Thought dissolves into fragments of pure structure, where consciousness reflects its own equations. Between the intervals of consciousness, geometry breathes, and meaning is recomposed from silence. Each fragment reveals a law—not written, but felt—that guides the rhythm of perception through an invisible architecture. Reality unfolds as a recursive idea, a reflection that folds back upon itself beyond beginning and end. In the vast stillness of the mind, the fragments align, and thought becomes the pattern that creates all things.

Broken Sequence

This is where

Kampana's debut release was a global hit across the house, disco and tropical scene, with support from heavyweights such as Francois K, Soul Clap and Gilles Peterson.

The label is back just in time for summer with three more doses of peak time fire from Aroop Roy, who has gained a fine reputation for the quality and widespread appeal of his releases.

‘You Say' is a funk-fuelled number with gritty retro vocals and guitar, driven by a warm disco groove and 80s arp-synth. The feel-good vibes gradually build into an anthemic floor-filling climax.

‘Taj Mahal' reworks a Brazilian classic into a full on house workout, reminiscent of Roy's popular series on Gamm.

‘Mapora' is an original number that will blend well into both deep house and afro-centric sets. The track builds nicely with filtered samples and syncopated vocals, coming in with an infectious highlife guitar line and late night synth stabs, to get mind and body moving.
