BP022 - Syz - Headspin - CLIPS

Careering through the red sandy desert it was hard to see through the fog. There was but a faint line in which the sky met the open plains before them as they bounced and shuffled atop the dusty outback in their little buggy.

From time to time they'd catch a brief glimpse through the smog to see the sunlight up above but sooner than it had come it would vanish in a flash plunging them once again into the smokey abyss of the great unknown.

The journey had always been a perilous one, even in the best of conditions and circumstances it was a challenge for the most ardent of adventurers.

This was what separated them from the rest, an explore 2.0 if you will. The keenest of the keen and the only team that might be able to transcend the reckless wasteland which was this red desert of chaos.

Frankfurt producer n9oc releases a new EP on Die Orakel, a futuristic release which draws influence from UK bass, deconstructed club sounds and Techno. It's as pensive as it is euphoric in moments.

Premiere: Firkit el Lotus 'Nerjaa (Moving Still Edit)'

Part 2 of the Settle Down debut on E-Beamz with 2 tracks connecting the dots beween the eras of UK club music history.

The clattering drums & undulating bassline of 'Sniper' give way to warping mentasms that evoke memories of some of the earliest strains of dance music from acid house to jungle tekno and hardcore.

'No Shoes on The Carpet' speeds things up and doffs it's cap to the ragga jungle of the mid 90's as well as the first strain of what would become drum & bass with the deep, diving bassline recalling classics from the Philly Blunt & V Recs back catalogues.

This is no holds barred dancefloor weaponry of the highest calibre.

Settle Down - Sniper

RDG presses the trigger on a heavyweight four track EP for Sentry Records, previously releasing on the likes of Gourmet Beats, Boka Records, Tribe 12 Music and more.

After numerous heavy releases last year, the deutsch couple @not-even-noticed lands in MASA displaying their most raver facet.

A work conceived for the club with two contrasting sides yet a common flow of sinuosity and elation, wherein acid lines - in a nod to the 90's scene - lead to winsome, blooming landscapes full of nostalgia.

Proud to present this beautiful mix of peak time minimalism, intricate electro, come-up euphorics and come-down remedies by the masterful 'not even noticed' duo on their Craigie Knowes debut EP, "Microtransitions" - something for every moment, yet nothing out of place.

CKNOWEP49 | not even noticed - Microtransitions EP

This EP from German duo @not-even-noticed is a music production lover’s dream. Honestly, the sound design and production levels are just beyond belief in my opinion. Needless to say, they have been on heavy rotation since I first received the demos and they aren’t anywhere close to getting old yet.

They somehow straddle the line between beautiful soundscapes and absolute face melting, eyes rolling back, grabbing the person next to yours’s shoulders heat. Does that even make sense? Well I think you get what I mean.

The EP is out next Friday the 21st. 

Absolutely boomin!

HHANDS024 - not even noticed - Don't You Dare EP (Clips)

@not-even-noticed

Since emerging from the underground scenes of Frankfurt and Halle/Leipzig in 2020, not even noticed have caught the attention of many through their signature blend of old-school elements with captivating sampling and a unique approach to sonic structures. Releases on household names such as Craigie Knowes, Holding Hands, Faux Poly and Chat Noir Distributions, have showcased the prolific duo’s sonic breadth, varying from progressive house and intricate trance to clinical electro and atmospheric warehouse rave anthems, all connected through a foundation of acid and breakbeats. 

not even noticed’s “nocturnal slide” EP, sees the duo explore a more emotional and ambient-leaning sound which remains deeply rooted in the rave. Lead single “Ethur” perfectly encapsulates the EP’s sonic world through its combination of expertly chopped breaks, delicate synth arpeggios and ethereal vocals with an ominous bassline.

‘Beneath the Surface’ sees not even noticed return to Craigie Knowes following their impressive debut in 2023. Carsten & Lucas return with an EP of refined club jams packed with thoughtfully tailored drive, energy and progression - and don’t forget their trusty 303 that featuring throughout. Top quality club productions.

Releases 10 February 2025.

CKNOWEP65 | not even noticed - Beneath the Surface (EP)

Bandcamp: fastatwork.bandcamp.com/album/eteus

Digital + physical preorder: July 3, 2025
Release date: July 31, 2025

As they landed from an extended hover - Fast At Work found themselves drawn to a new, singular sonic flow. With a future forward vision of higher-deeper tempos, the crew realized that often the most meaningful iterations can be found in the most inconspicuous places - “not even noticed,” some might say. Within these subtle crevices, a rising duo emerged to carry this torch forward, expertly crafting four original offerings. While the title contribution echoes a sermon of oozing bassline flows and siren signals, “Drip Advise” mesmerizes with its spiraling melodies and a deluge of percussion. The B-side hosts the acid-tinged “Creamavity,” as well as “Anxious,” which synthesizes the full pilgrimage into a polished musical definition. To wrap their heli-disc, the mystical duo prescribes a set of two reshapes: Wisdom Teeth’s K-Lone opts for strong foundational grooves and deep airy textures, while Maara crafts an oceanic odyssey – over 10 minutes of timeworn atmospherics and sensorial sensibilities.
