Artist: Pino Peคa & SAMWHO 
Title: Jacarandas
Label: W133
Release Date: December 8, 2023

To wrap up the year, W133 has put together its second Various Artist release featuring a diverse lineup of emerging and established artists. 

Kicking off the EP is the French producer Monibi, offering a groovy and bass-heavy breakbeat track titled "Mahsa Amini." This track serves as a call to fight for women's rights, not only in Iran but around the world.

On A2, San Francisco-based Kudeki showcases her love for tripped-out Techno with "Cursive." This mesmerizing track, featuring a relentless bassline and a 4/4 kick, creates a spooky atmosphere.

On the flip side, label head Pino Peña teams up with samwho from Rotterdam to deliver a percussive power workout. "Jacarandas," named after the purple trees in CDMX, definitely has those Latin American vibes and rhythms that will get you moving.

For the closer of the EP, speed dembow heavyweight Siu Mata delivers a fast-hitting tribal bomb called "Dubiquity," which takes you on a journey through dramatic pads and spaced-out percussions.

The release is, as always, complemented by pictures taken by analogue photographer Freya Gerz and is available on vinyl with fully printed cover sleeves as well as digitally.

HoxV-1: Various Artists - ECDYSIS / 5 years of Amniote Editions (Remix Compilation)

Celebrating the sonic history of the label as part of the anniversary. Artists who have contributed to capsules throughout the five years of the project were invited to dig into the entire back catalog of releases and create their own unique take. The result is a beautifully diverse 12-track compilation that reinvents tracks, spanning from the first capsule that launched the label to the joint fundraiser compilations with Ute Records to the recent collaboration with the Berlin-based collective Mala Junta.

Bringing the extra-terrestrial jack we love so dearly, Comarca comes spinning into the PM+ orbit with two glittering space rocks on a collision course with the club. There's fierce functionality in the focused sound palette, but we could never settle for conventional fare and the Spanish upstart knows exactly where to tease in the necessary freakiness to get us sweating. 

At the core of Comarca's sound lies his instinct for slowly evolving, disorienting textures to induce slow-release hysteria on the dancefloor. Away from obvious build-up-breakdown dynamics, 'Ben Depressa' is the kind of slithering, plate-shifting techno that takes a locked-in crowd and moves them en masse to the next plain of interconnected, transcendental shockout with devastating poise. 

'Rotula' is equally monumental in its potency, ratcheting down a rock solid groove upon which to tease in the hooks until they're subliminally submerged deep enough in your subconscious to take full control. There's a lyrical quality to the lead synth line which sounds like it's commanding some kind of bacchanal on the edge of the void, and who are we to resist the call?

Fresh, fun, firm and feisty — invite Comarca over the threshold and lay his fiendish wares upon your virtual platter.
