Premiere: Roza Terenzi ‘Electronique’

"Multi-city based label, La Dune, comes out swinging with a five track break-beat compilation sure to make its mark. Kicking off 2019 with a blissed-out and controlled high-energy throughout, the Cassée EP sees La Dune make their first steps on to wax.

From its primitively ethereal opening track ‘Goma’ by DJ RN through to the charged up jungle breaks of Cassettes For Kids’ ‘Lil’ More’, the full spectrum of break-beat in its modern form is both celebrated and explored. The exciting return of Sonter on La Dune brings us ‘Valmara’, a steady yet thunderous room-shaker that builds to an other-worldly second half. Completing the line up, label co-founder Jacques Torrance and additional label debut Native Cruise bring their own distinct break-beat inspired euphoria to the table with the Cassée EP flexing its sonic muscles and hitting us right where it feels good. The sky is the limit for this impressive emerging imprint."

Cassée

[DUN005] - Various Artists - Cassée EP (preview - out now)

Andy Garvey finally breaks cover after years of honing her cyber-tinged production edge with a hefty four track debut EP for the Lobster Theremin main label. 

Having developed her selections and style via her staple Pure Space show for Aussie radio station Triple J - as well as finding time to co-head the Nectar booking agency and event series - Garvey's debut is a solid reflection of that journey and the core sound of the platforms she helms. 

Eternal Recurrence is a classic banger on the A1. Forming an intersection between acid, breaks and a rolling & scuffed modern deep house sound that was established early in the Lobster catalogue. It's been track ID'd at every turn, as well as featuring in a slurry of Lobster mixes and Mall Grab's BBC Radio Essential mix. A subtle peak-time weapon. 

We then drift into the melodic acid & pads of Infinity. A blast of fuzzy 808 thumping under a carpet of melodic textures and brooding soundscapes. Serious emotional acid bizz this. 

Meta Physical breaks and thumps along with a slow melancholy line that emerges and submerges. Circuits crackle and wail; the ghost of perished AI call out from the dark; a lost, lonely electroid bot longs for real emotions and a place to call home. 

Finishing up is the tough as a nut Protovision. A shot of speedy VR-acid electro direct to the skull. Hammering 808's and gnarly semi-tone eighth rhythms chunter to a drive-time rhythms. A midnight chase towards a future megacity, all set in glowing neon and the blackest black.

Grappa is an alcoholic, grape-based after-dinner drink. I hate the taste of it. I made this track around 2012 and recently ran it through tape. It's still one of my fav tracks. You can get it for free or name your own price on Bandcamp.

London-based, Belfast raised talent Swoose lands on Lost Palms dishing up four slices of transcendental music to get lost in. ‘Introspective’ EP traverses sundowners, sunrises and the hours in between. Swoose injects a fresh burst of life to timeless sounds with this lush EP.

‘Introspective’ EP drops May 22nd via Shall Not Fade’s Lost Palms imprint.

PALMS027 // Swoose - Introspective EP

Shall Not Fade welcomes Cologne’s DJOKO to the family with 5 slices of scorching feel-good house. Over a decade spent honing his craft, DJOKO has steadily gained recognition for his innate ability to craft a groove. Slick house infused with 2-step, garage and breakbeat energy - this one has us longing for the dance.  

Pre-order vinyl here: https://shallnotfade.co.uk/album/hooked-ep

Kickin’ off with infectious, 2-step energy ‘Hooked On You’ is a poppin’ jam for hazy days and sunkissed dancefloors. Next up ‘Facettes’ takes retro elements and gives them new life in this glorious funk-filled, swinging cut. Taking it up a notch on, ‘Bad To The Bone’ is a chunky house pumper with all the right ingredients - stripped back vocals, swirly synths, piano stabs - dancing over a killer groove. Techy B2 ‘Jode Lade’ nod to DJOKO’s musical upbringing. Bouncy and minimal, his most stripped back offering on the EP but still prime dancefloor heat. DIGI BONUS. In The Zone rounds out the EP on a similar note, bursting with raw 90’s textures to get lost in. 

Hooked EP drops 29th May  via Shall Not Fade imprint.

SNF042 // DJOKO - Hooked EP

All the way from Bogota, Colombia’s Felipe Gordon delivers a multi-dimensional EP to Shall Not Fade’s Lost Palms imprint. A wealth of influences come together on this varied release, it’s 4 tracks blossoming from roots in funk, soul and house music. 

Vinyl here: https://shallnotfade.co.uk/album/j-piter-ep

Kicking off the release, ‘The Júpiter Song’ is lounge house at it’s finest. Slick simple beats with jazz infused drums pave the way for A2’s, woozy piano house cut ‘Hey, Keep Going’. A multi-faceted release, the reverse sees Felipe Gordon flexing his heavier production hand. Sticky thumper ‘Acid Horizontal Polka’ is a chunkier affair; acid lines, thick kicks interspersed with chords and disorientating vocals. Rounding out the EP, ‘Snake Jazz’ transports the listener far away with funk-filled bass licks and serpentine percussion.  

Júpiter EP drops 29th May via Shall Not Fade’s Lost Palms imprint.

PREMIERE: Hotmood - The Magic Bassline [Hive Label]

Known for releases on Apron, Misterio and Stillove4Music, Devin Dare join RNT with a 4-tracker of straight dance floor heat. The production alias of NYC’s Duane Harriott and Shawn Marquand, Devin Dare produce disco edits with a driving, almost techno-like sensibility, and this 12” showcases their ability to coax every last drop of energy from a chopped and looped sample. From the rolling thump of ‘Clash and Burn,’ to the percussive and bass-driven ‘Stop,’ the low-slung gospel organ groove of ‘Dust,’ to the explosive and exuberant ‘KOHO2’ this record pretty much defines what a rework can, and should be. In a word, PROPER!
