On the second EP for his Dynamics Of Acid label, acid aficionado MOY — fresh from releases on Nocta Numerica and Batrachian —  teams up with the mysterious Zodiac Childs for a feast of shredded breaks, electro melodies and moody atmospheres.

On the A-side, MOY’s ‘Ratufa’ mixes euphoric pianos, hardcore drums and glowering bass with a side order of 303, while Zodiac Childs ups the intensity with a remix that adds ascending arpeggios and gigantic rave stabs to light up the dance.

On the B-side, Zodiac Childs offers up the smouldering break chops and cavernous bass bleeps of ‘Overstep’, before flipping into acid madness halfway through. Finally, MOY’s version threads serpentine sulphuric tones through an intricate melodic arrangement and a dusty hip-hop drum loop. 

It all adds up to a jaw-dropping release from two of the hottest names in the electronic underground.

Venezuelan born, Berlin based producer Manao and forward thinking UK artist Tom Place combine on the collaborative ‘Vorticis’ EP, via La Bonne Musique. The impressive four tracker is rounded off by a remix by experimental club music producer and dj, alys(alys)alys of the title track. 

The idea behind Vorticis came from the concept of fusing elements of classic electro & dubstep. The concept of Vorticis was originally to see how a fusion of dubstep & electro sounds would work in a club environment. As the EP progressed they realised that it was more than just an experiment. They had carved out a new direction and were excited to share it with the world.

PREMIERE: Tom Place & Manao - L.I.T.E

There was a strange feeling lingering in the air, an eerie sense of tension which hung thick and left a bitter taste in the mouth. Why would it be that there was so much stress? Where had this come from? Why now? What caused the pinch?

He sighed as he wandered through the quiet city, it was dead, the people of the week had left town to return to their families leaving nothing but empty streets and still puddles.

There were no sirens, no cars, ho beaming headlights. Yet still it was noisy where he was.

Preference releases a new EP on Ayeland – a futuristic extravaganza which lends a nod to the early days of Bass music alongside the deconstructed improvisations of the genre which later followed suit.

PREMIERE: Preference - Pinch [Ayeland]

All Centre kick off the new year with a two tracker from label mainstay Holloway. Following a busy 2023 for the London-based artist, holding down a residency on Rinse FM, tearing up parties around the world and launching his own label Waylo, Holloway starts the year as he means to go on with two incendiary club tracks.

Beans opens in atmospheric fashion with lush pads and dubbed-out sirens held together by enthrallingly syncopated percussion. The structure then strips down to allow a wistful, jazz-inflected theme to come to the fore, deftly complimented by a bouncing, descending bassline and a deep kick pattern. Lightly swung drums give an edge of UKG stylings to this deep, introspective cut.

On the flip Holloway ramps up the tempo with Trinco. Soulful chords fuse the sound of 90s DnB into precise, stepping percussion. The track launches into another dimension at the drop, driven by techy drums, growling basslines and warped vocal samples. The track breathes with the reintroduction of the atmospheric pads, before the bassweight emerges again with renewed force.

Beans is available across all digital platforms from the 12th January 2024.

Tapping into the influences of Japan's thriving scene, Tokyo-based artist Hirotaka Umetani, AKA Albino Sound, continues the LEFT series with 3 tracks, each exploring a distinct strain of techno.

Albino Sound’s unique synthetic production veers heavily into peak time energies on this EP, injecting a charged electricity into his archetypal spacious, metallic sound design & upping the tempos - intricately weaving sharp, resonant highs through heavy, sound-system rattling lows for striking, high contrast effect
