Burger Steaks third release for us is here! Again, he delivers his own flavour of slowed down DnB beats, Electro and vintage soundtracks. Brain Fog, an attention-catching, dark and jazzy tune with unexpected musical changes is packed with a crazy mix of chelli, sax and trumpets while the punchy drum set will make your dancing shoes glow. Bunker Base feels almost like a pop song out of Rosemaries Baby. It’s church-chorus hook line, flute solos and distorted acid bass make it a pretty wild combination of instruments that are not necessarily heard together much. A wild release that we hope you like as much as we do. 

All tracks mixed by Stefan Janson and mastered by Salz Mastering.

From mimicking drum sounds with their mouths and then processing the result to create a world of intricate, intimate sound; to recording a short EP’s worth of work at the snail’s pace of a minimum 12 months, the Sydney based duo Thomas Gray & Liam Ebbs approach their work with a fascinating blend of impulse and consideration. Sounds can be carefully sulptured, massaged, edited and reworked, only to be thrown out the window and replaced with a whole new set of material at a moment’s notice.

The pair pay acute attention to mood, space and atmosphere; they are not afraid to take their time. Listening to their compositions is like travelling through the countryside on a train, downriver on a boat, or rising into clouds through the windows of a commercial airliner. Gray and Ebbs’ music, it feels, is an accompaniment to thought and feeling, a personal soundtrack to carry in one’s head. As Eno said when famously coining the term ‘ambient’ - “Ambient music must be able to accommodate many levels of listening attention without enforcing one in particular; it must be as ignorable as it is interesting.”

In 2022, the pair will return with a new EP, ‘Blue’, their first for the Bedroom Suck Records label. The five tracks on Blue continue to explore the world that lies somewhere between organic and electronic, between natural sound and manufactured signal. Acoustic instruments make a notable appearance, as does a strong lead vocal in ‘It’s Alright’. The music is evocative, nostalgic and inspirational; It leaves one feeling hopeful.

'Blue' is out everywhere May 6, 2022 via Bedroom Suck Records / Flightless Distro (AU/NZ) / Cargo (UK/EU) / Polyvinyl (North America).

Berlin-based record label Bulging Discs celebrates their first vinyl release with a glorious six-tracker 'On the Zonts' by OKAYOKAYOKAY. 
OKAYOKAYOKAY, an Australian-born producer who has called Berlin home for the last six years, created a release that fits your downtime at home or the foggy dance floor during early mornings in Berlin. 
'Interference Fits,' our premiere for today, uses the 'breakbeat with acid' recipe, a formula that brought us some of the most iconic tracks in the past few decades (especially in the '90s). With that in mind, this track sounds like a contemporary take (in the best way possible) on our beloved genre - the 90s electronica. Melancholy melody layered with rolling percussions and acid bassline fits together marvelously to create a pleasant journey with a 'feel good' stamp on it.
OKAYOKAYOKAY - On the Zonts marks the label's physical release debut and will also be available for streaming & download on all major platforms from 18 April 2022.

Michael Donoghue is a Rotherham born, Jersey based independent electronic artist, composing left-field electronica which draws in influences from several genres, including ambient electro, downtempo, techno, and IDM. 
 
Michael started to compose in 2017, releasing several singles and EP's under the pseudonym of Cosmosapien. In the summer of 2020, Michael stepped out from the shadows of his alter ego, and started releasing music under his own name. Since then he's released several singles and EP's, three solo albums, and a collaboration LP with fellow unsigned artist Pulses. In the process Michael has found himself on the radar of several independent radio shows, blogs, reviewers, and playlist curators. 
 
Several of Michael's tracks have been supported by BBC Music Introducing in the Channel Islands, and have also featured on many independent radio shows including Trust The Doc Radio, Supernova, In The Moog, and many more. He's made the coveted Fresh On The Net 'Fresh Faves' on several occasions, and in January 2022 received his first national radio play with the ambient track 'Overview Effect' making a chill-out special on Jaguar's BBC Introducing Dance Show on Radio 1.

Michael has released his most recent projects through the independent label Irregular Patterns, including his latest LP 'Time Machine'.
