Though no longer based in Sydney’s Inner West, jobfit’s music continues to hold space for those who traverse its parks, pubs and parties.

For their third release on Pure Space, jobfit share their new EP ‘time to make Daddy some money’.

Full of swirling synths, deep bass and acidic tastes, this EP continues jobfit’s splicing together of poetry and dance music. Where crisp percussion arrests tension, immersive pads hold you in - releasing only to rebuild again and again.

This release/rebuild is the perfect support for the vocals. Written between Sydney’s two lockdowns, the EP is a woozy state of inertia. There are sneaks of escape - outta Sydney, on the street, in the studio. But there’s also a state of being trapped - in the kitchen, in the Poet, in the interior. Both inSide and inSelf. The vocalist always uneasy, knowing what could come. And then it does: ‘Collar Mourning’ rounds us out for another stretch between “four walls and 34 square metres / captures and holds”.

Yet there are always moments of respite, a settling into place, making peace, the “alla norma”. It’s dance music for those stuck at home! For driving! For traversing space and time, beer belly wriggling into jeans, lurching up Newtown’s drunken pipeline, reminiscing on times connecting, over there, or there, or there… “smiling, and knowing and turning still.”

OS005 - Notte Infinita - Atmosfera

For our next release, Notte Infinita mediates the balance between dub-laced frequencies, introspective melodies and atmosphere. His propulsive 'Atmosfera' three-tracker focuses on digital signal processing and embraces the shimmery, hyper-realistic synthetic quality of FFT manipulation.

Four years after their acclaimed album PSYOP, the London/Vilnius based duo Watching Airplanes is back on Banlieue Records with the four tracker "Elusive Still EP". 

Leaving aside PSYOP's cybernetic electro-funk and futuristic aspects for a deep and nostalgic opus, Watching Airplanes bequeath to whoever will found it, the touching manifesto of two souls being connected for the last time. Through 4 humble and elegant pieces, they yield a delicate bouquet of illbient and dub-infused ambient-techno, flourishing as a wistful tribute to friendship and good times.

Release date: November 21th on Bandcamp

Following this year’s VA ‘Marmo’, a collaborative offering co-released with XCPT, Baroque Sunburst releases its first Various Artists EP. Tracks from Taro, Pugilist, Slacker and Flørist, creates a statement record championing subtle yet hybrid club-oriented sounds. 

Taro ignites the white label 12" with ‘Gas Burn’, a dreamy, rarified IDM zipper. An off-kilter UK funky remix from Flørist follows (his second appearance on the imprint after 2020's Intermedia 1 EP). The B side drags us into a half-time, downtempo sideroom, with tracks from Slacker (Aqueduct) and Pugilist (Symbiosis) slowing pace but maintaining intensity.

Limited to 300 copies.

Dreams, an artist known for his label & event series Private Selection, is set to release his first record since 2020 on a new label he founded this year, called Dance Data. 

The B side, 'Vessel', marks one of his first releases at this velocity - each groove feels hypnotic and gives weight into the next moment. A blistering saw bassline tightly sits on top of live recordings of brazilian percussion – and the dark and tribal energy fits the A-side as a perfectly paired, yet still unanticipated counterpart. As his first offering since a 2020 hiatus, it is refreshing to see Dreams pulling from his roots with 'Paraxotica' while also coming in with a more organic approach as is heard on 'Vessel'.

Pre-orders for the 12" vinyl are available now, which come with a custom hand made insert.
Vinyl release date: Feb 2023

The A side can be heard in full on Dance Data's bandcamp

Since his last outing on Control Freak with the sold-out Bunzunkunzun EP, Syz has built a reputation as one of the UKs most distinctive club producers, weaving playful, percussive techno with soundsystem-driven bass music.

Much of this acclaim started with 2020’s Mindforms - a self-released mini-LP which saw the young producer step away from the dancefloor to explore an expansive sonic world, ‘balancing the tranquility of the ecological world with the immediacy of the digital one’.

The original  release was accompanied by a highly limited run of just 10 dubplates. Deeming this 6-tracker too good not to receive a proper pressing, Control Freak are proud to present the first ever complete vinyl run for Mindforms.

Alongside the record, Syz & Control Freak have curated Clubforms, a collection of remixes from some of our favourite producers, each bringing the original release firmly onto the dancefloor with their own production flourishes.

CLUBFORMS - Mindforms remixes from @henry-greenleaf, @daisymoon, @tammohesselink, @keplrr:
