Knee Deep

Celestial Body

Today we a premiere a track from Welsh native Maroki who joins the Running Out Of steam team for a six track EP of eclectic grooves, from breaks to moon-lit acid. ‘Alfred Stole My Brain’ is tranquil ceremony of electronics which is both welcoming and meditative, but maintains a functional dance-floor vibe.

Originally from West Wales now residing in Amsterdam in a studio nestled beside the river Ij, Maroki now joins the ROOS family following a string of stellar releases.

Maroki leaves nothing to chance, using his classically trained skills and expertly engineered sounds into a pool of influences that range from breaks, moon-lit acid and heads-down chuggy goodness.

The now Amsterdam based producer has put the down and grafted in the studio for this release, pulling inspiration from various places and pulling out a mixed bag of goodies for his debut on Running Out Of Steam.

‘Alfred stole my brain’ poses as a swarm of warm and inviting melodies, gliding flanges, deep bass and blissful harmonics, but stays dance-floor ready with crisp and poignant drum work. This is a real delight from the Welsh man.

PREMIERE: Thugwidow - Conduct Yourself With Some Fucking Dignity [Western Lore]

Dublin based Matthew Day (FKA Taking Names) has supplied a brilliant premiere today titled ‘Inside Out’. This track is a wonderful showcase of chopped breaks, ethereal electro and low-slung dubstep infused into one. This track is truly sublime listening all the way through. What a treat.

Following Matthew’s debut EP release ‘Deep Blue’ as well as a release on Birmingham based label ‘Fly By Night Recordings’ under his belt. His latest endeavour ‘Inside Out’ looks to be a continuation of him carving out a unique sound that aims to blend electro, house, trance and bass music together.

This 4 track EP is made up of 3 of his own original productions titled ‘Inside Out’, ‘Knee Deep’ and ‘Celestial Body’ with the extremely talented, Belfast based Flyora on remix duties who provided their own take on ‘Celestial Body’ too.

‘Inside Out’, which has previously featured on BBC Radio kicks the EP off with an amalgamation of bass, field recordings and and sounds derived from the legendary Korg Prophecy synthesiser that make for a fantastic listening experience. The depth of this track is so rich that upon re-listening you can hear new elements throughout the production which is thoroughly enjoyable.

Crimson _ mor

sunrise

Immerse yourself in a world where smoke-stained trip-hop meets the heartbeat of modern hip-hop and the velvet glow of soul and R&B. This album drifts between dim-lit alleyways, neon reflections, and midnight drives, blending hypnotic rhythms with warm, human storytelling. Each track is built from deep grooves, atmospheric textures, and vocals that slide between confessions and swagger. It’s music for the thinkers, the wanderers, and the ones who come alive after dark. Press play, sink in, and let the pulse pull you somewhere new.

Today we premiere yet another brilliant track, today coming from young Dublin based DJ and produce, Mathew Day aka Taking Names.

Like most weeks we got sent a ton of new music and Mathew Day aka Taking Names was a name we were not familiar with, but certainly are now.

From his early days of playing piano and discovering the likes of Kraftwerk, The Sisters of Mercy and Depeche Mode through his father's record collection, his passion for electronic music began.

After a few back and forth emails, Matthew spoke passionately about how his taste in music evolved to encompass electronic sounds from across the spectrum of electro, house, techno and bass music. Inspired by the wealth of talent in Ireland and abroad, his influences include Desert Sound Colony, Pepe, 96 Back and Long Island Sound to name a few.

Last year saw Matthew's first release on the Birmingham label Fly By Night Recordings, an ethereal electro number to compliment a time where floating through space might be preferable. This year Matthew plans to expand his musical horizons in new directions with a back catalogue of unreleased tracks that grows week upon week as the lockdown continues,  today culminating in his self released EP called Deep Blue, which also features a remix from The Droid, who we are fans of.

Taking Names.
