Having made their debut on Eskimo in 2020 with the Altered States EP, French duo You Man return to the label to continue their exploration of the psyche with a new 4 track EP, As Above So Below. Where both Altered States' title and hypnotic loops were influenced by the psychedelic experiments of the 1950s, As Above So Below's title explores the occult ideas that ran rampant in fin de siècle Paris and beyond through a series of trance inducing club tracks.

"As Above So Below is an exploration of the fractal nature of reality, the patterns of self-repetition that constitute reality from the furthest reaches of the Universe right down to the nano-structures of our cells," says You Man's Tepat Huleux. "Patterns repeated ad infinitum, but still everything appears different." 

"The plurality of Worlds beyond our own, and the way of traveling from one to the other through modified states of consciousness and hypnosis, is a theme that has always been very important to You Man since our first mysterious encounter," explains Giac Di Falco, who as well as producing music is a trained psychologist and hypnotherapist. 

As for the music, well as you'd expect, the 4 tracks here are a heady mix but still for all the (very) high concepts behind them, they are still proven dancefloor heaters. The title track As Above So Below, draws upon the idea of self-replication, its backbone a chugging bass line and looping synth riff designed to draw the listener's gaze inwards, their reverie only broken by disco stabs and an almost incongruous breakbeat that resets our equilibrium before the track takes us deeper still. Third Eye betrays the influence of Huleux and Di Falco's misspent youth crossing the Franco-Belgium border in search of fun, it's throbbing strobe like EBM pulse not only ready to activate the titular psychic phenomenon but also provides a direct line to those all night raves in Ghent, that both inspired their musical adventures and birthed Eskimo Recordings. 

Something' Higher takes us further up on this trip, an irrepressibly funky acidic bass line and percussive vocal elements lock you into a deep groove, whilst the voice of the late Stephen Hawking and the occasional angelic wash of synths carries us off into the heavens, to give us a glimpse of the universe's infinite possibilities. Closing out the EP then we have Temple of Bloom, a number that drips with sweat and harks back to Todd Terry's early warehouse ready productions with its unstoppable house beat, chopped up breakbeats, percussion that echo off into infinity and discordant industrial stabs that punctuate the track.

Having followed their Eskimo debut with acclaimed remixes for the likes of Polo & Pan, Tensnake and Local Suicide, this new EP further cements the duos growing reputation for creating deep club tracks that embrace everything from the deepest techno and warehouse rave to global sounds and disco vibes that take the listener to the very reaches of consciousness and beyond.

Abe Duque - Following My Heart (Oliver Huntemann remix) - Process Recordings

Under the cloak of darkness large shipments travelled the country, from head to toe. They brought with them packages and parcels in all shapes and sizes, a curious assortment of brightly coloured envelopes, bits and bobs. The night mail was an intriguing and mysterious process, a delivery system with a structure and support system all of it's own. People would depend on the delivery of their prized possessions. In warehouses up and down the country, machines whirred and people raced against the sunrise to deliver. 

New Jackson first released 'The Night Mail' on POGO Recordings back in 2011, a beneath the radar anthem with huge potential and firm support from key figures which never quite got the chance to shine. Now Maeve are set to re-release the track with a remix by none other than Mano Le Tough alongside new music from New Jackson himself. Highly recommended.

What Do We Care

What Do We Care (feat. Tom Sanders (Teleman))

Blue Marlin Ibiza is a stylish beach club that provides some of the best comfort, service and entertainment available on the island. Located in the beautiful Cala Jondal Bay in the southwest of the Island, Blue Marlin plays host each year to some of the most elitist parties around. 

Blue Marlin's beautiful location and high quality dining experience is accompanied by an equally exquisite music policy each day by Resident DJ's Vidal Rodriguez, Prosper Rek, Tom Crane & Bruce Hill along with special guests. During the day whilst the sun shines and people sit back and relax on the loungers the resident DJ's provide gorgeous laid-back beats and chilled vibes to provide the ultimate Blue Marlin experience. At night, Blue Marlin opens it's doors to a selection of Guest DJ's and performers to get the real party started with appearances from Little Louie Vega, Goldfish, Wally Lopez, Chuckie and Barbara Tucker to name a few. 

For volume 7, Blue Marlin have really pulled out all the stops, giving us 2 discs each with a distinctly different flavour, but still retaining that cool Blue Marlin vibe. Disc 1 is full of great deep house cuts that provide a taste of nights at the club, standout tracks being the Luna City Express remix of Marcos In Dub’s Mama Said and Pachanga Boys timeless Time. Disc 2 is more chilled and features stunning tracks from James Welsh and Prins Thomas’ remix of James Yuill’s This Sweet Love. The album will be heavily promoted across social media by Blue Marlin’s label partner Cr2 Records, and will be advertised extensively at the club itself.

Loving electronic music since 2011 from 9 years old.

Established in the 90s, Misstress Barbara (word play between Miss and Stress) is a pioneering DJ/Producer and one of the first female superstar DJs who helped inspire future generations with her explosive Techno sets. Whilst headlining major festivals and events globally, there was a period in the ’00s when she was consistently voted inside of DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs.

Born in Italy, she moved to Canada at age 8. Curious and passionate by nature, she loves exploring new fields and reaching new goals. To name a few, she is a drummer, she has a glider and private pilot license, she graduated University in Communications/Cinema, she is a boat captain and sailing instructor, and she also launched her own bean-to-bar chocolate brand Barbon Chocolate, crafting everything by hand herself. A woman of many talents indeed.

But among all of her passions, music was always her main focus since the start of her remarkable career, which has earned her multiple accolades (2001 Best Montreal International Music Initiative Award / 2002 UK Underground Music Awards’ Best Breakthrough DJ / 2009 GAMIQ’s Best Electronic Album of the Year Awards and 2010 Canada’s JUNO Awards’ Best Dance Album of the Year nomination for “I’m No Human” / 2014 MTL Awards’ Best Montreal DJ, to name a few). Her extensive discography is found among the world’s best Techno labels, including her own, launched in 1999 under the name Relentless, which became Iturnem in 2003. Barbara Brown used to be her alter-ego used for her softer productions, but she now releases all her music under her main name, regardless of the style, as she did for her albums I’m No Human and Many Shades of Grey. This might confuse her most loyal techno fans, although they should rest assured that she will never stray away from her first true love: Techno.
