Versatile Dub Gems #1

Playground is releasing a very special compilation to celebrate nine years of life. A musical journey shared with dear friends, which expresses the living history of the label from its origins to the present. From the first illegal raves in Buenos Aires, to becoming an international artist's platform based in Barcelona. A long process of learning, growth and consolidation have passed. Nowadays, with an extensive catalog of more than 40 references Playground has a solid story to tell, always selecting an eclectic criterion and betting on diversity. Each launch reaffirms the commitment with an aesthetic freedom beyond any label.

The ‘9 Years Compilation’ faithfully expresses our history, but above all our present, always with an eye looking to the future. 15 new original tracks carefully chosen to create a polychromatic musical adventure, with diverse nuances and intensities. From downtempo songs to listen at home, through music inspired by the new wave, the creative force of the jungle, the power of organic elements and psychedelic experimentation to the most convincing music for the club.

We are proud to introduce the team of notables who have come together especially to bring this wonderful creature to life: Sascha Funke, Curses, Iñigo Vontier, Shubostar, Theus Mago, Local Suicide & Franz Matthews, Thomas Von Party & Fabio Me Llaman Soltero, Niv Ast, MR TC, Thomass Jackson & MKDSL, Middle Sky Boom, Stevie R & Parisinos, Teniente Castillo, Kate Stein feat. Vongold, Martin Noise & A-Tweed…

PREMIERE⚡️Teniente Castillo - Padre Karras [Playground Records]

Owner of a sonority that combines Techno with shards of EBM, Industrial, and Post-Punk plus a pinch of Latinity, Mverto Futura’s output has definitely a strong character and a fierce attitude. After appearing on some of the most important labels amid the so-called Indie Dance/Dark Disco scene such as Veneno, Controlla, Oberwave, Quixotical, and Dogs & Vultures, to name a few, the Guatemalan producer makes his debut on another powerhouse of the dark genres: Richmerch opens its doors for his “Enajenado”, a powerful EP featuring three creative originals and one spicy remix by Undefined Pattern (SXDNS197).

The remix, premiered here, by the way, brings Mr. UP boldly stripping off a pretty good deal of the Rock & percussive atmosphere of the original and replacing it with a sort of Oriental/Middle East aura. The bouncing beats and the melodic synth layer set the mood of a more fast-paced and frenzied version.

PREMIERE352 // Mverto Futura - La Lokura (Chilango Undefined Pattern Mix)

Fringe Society makes an accomplished return to Wrong Era with his otherworldly album ‘The Art World’. We are invited into his delicately sculpted soundscape through abundantly transcendent tracks. 

With a rich, analogue welcome from ‘Mondo Dell’Arte’, ghostly vocals filled with tantalising longing accompany this appropriate entry point for the LP. The tight arpeggios are a perfect anchor for the magnetic, alluring vocal lines. Beautifully phased synthesis on ‘Alexithymia’ cries out across the crisp instrumentation. Cascading, dystopian tones are delivered throughout, and artful harmonic dissonance can be heard in ‘Venom In Spurts’. 'The Art World' is brimming with this trademark approach to vivid imagery and powerful rhythmic pacing. 

Intelligent odes to EBM and Proto House hit you on ‘Enigma Body Music'. Fizzing vocals and vast sound design add to this album’s fluidity. You cannot help but be stunned by the exciting, energetic twists and turns throughout this LP. The percussive work is unparalleled and creates an unstoppable drive across all tracks. 

‘Arthur Ave Rules' presents itself as a menacing peak-time triumph. The slicing, metallic motif swells and evolves throughout. A perfectly placed rimshot adds grounding to this sweltering track. The last section of the record leaves you yearning for more of the cinematic brilliance of ‘The Bird Perspektive’ and the percussive, chiming floor filler ‘Frederike’s Summer’. 

This release transports you to one of Fringe Society’s mesmerising live sets and a dimly lit Mullholand overlook. ‘The Art World’ embodies his consistently slick approach to production and breathtaking sonic atmospheres. A true force to be reckoned with.

According to the Cambridge Dictionary, a curse can be defined as “something evil or unpleasant that happens to someone, by or as if by a magical power”. It sounds like a thing to be avoided, doesn’t it? What if there was a good curse? If you doubt such a thing exists, just check Sadissmo’s debut EP on NEIN Records: “Dance Curse” (See? A good one) comes packed with highly danceable cuts featuring tribalism-infused elements and wilderness-soaked vibes. Besides two competent originals, the release breezes in with a splendid remix by the label honcho himself, Sir Neil Parnell aka Tronik Youth (SXDNS050/TAKEOVER001). 

Very little is known about Sadissmo. Our ruthless detectives found his real name is Raymundo and that he is currently based in Guadalajara, Mexico. The obscure artist seems to focus on his craft instead of social media & whatnot, hence the scarcity of information about him. Kudos!  

The remixer, on the other hand, needs no introduction: Mr. Youth has been keeping the fire burning for quite some time and he shows no signs of getting tired of delivering high-quality Indie Dance/Dark Disco themes. For his interpretation of the title track, Neil started spicing things up by going from 114 to 123 BPM. The OMG-bassline topped by the ominous vocal hooks completes the bewitchment of this beautiful curse.

PREMIERE : Komodo - Funky Buzz

Sunday Feel - Mali-I aka Z Lovecraft CLIP

Phil Peskett and Jamie Tolley aka Blavatsky & Tolley are about to release their first track on their record label – the track is River Inside, the label is Evil Plans records. The release date is 9 October, presale on 18 September 2020. 

This is not an ordinary artist collaboration, these guys have history – as close as brothers.

Jamie was first introduced to Phil in the early 90s, at the time Jamie held a residency at Club UK and Phil was firmly placed on the band circuit, but it was electronic music that brought them together. Via a group of mutual friends, Jamie first encountered Phil in a South East London loft studio, this was Phil’s loft and the start of a beautiful friendship. According to Jamie, Phil was a ‘larger than life’ character and the pair instantly bonded. Hanging out and enjoying music together became a regular pastime. Jamie loved Phil’s style, but at the time they were experimenting with sound and did not even think to release anything.

Fast forward three decades, and Blavatsky & Tolley are on it. Phil’s blues/rock band have separated, Jamie’s weekly electronic music radio show is established with a regular following and the time is right – everything happens for a reason. Phil got back the taste for electronic music, he always loved what Jamie played on the show and became inspired to collaborate and create with him. Over the New Year from 2019/2020 the guys spent nearly three days straight in the studio, the music flowed and River Inside was born. 

In terms of what the tracks means to him, in Jamie’s own words – ‘River Inside, it’s a journey … a twister of a tune. I’m a river inside, that’s how you feel when you’re on the dancefloor where nothing else matters as the music runs through you. It’s a great feeling and that is a river inside you.’ 

Phil’s musical background as a vocalist and harmonicist combined with Jamie’s nous for electronic music and exposure to constantly new material from showcasing international artists on a weekly basis makes for creative brilliance – Blavatsky & Tolley.

The initial plan for the label Evil Plans records was to debut and release Blavatsky & Tolley’s music, but knowing these guys this is just the beginning of something truly mind-blowing, and much bigger than that. River Inside comes with two fantastic remixes by Al Mackenzie’s Retroforward and BTCOP, two completely different takes and equally as breath-taking as the original. Rich Lane from Cotton Bud did a superb job on the mastering of all three – a great collaborative effort on this super EP. This has been a long time coming, watch this space …
