Super cool sounds. Featured in my latest mix - https://www.mixcloud.com/trafficcmusic/rush-hour-023-trafficc-06-12-2019/

@tristanarp's 'Oddkin' is a web of unlikely bonds hanging in the delicate balance of coexistence. Leaning heavily into animated sound design and asymmetrical rhythms for worldbuilding.

On 21st September the rising French DJ/producer Simo Cell presents new mini album ‘YES.DJ’ – his first solo record since 2018 – released on his own label TEMƎT. A celebration of dance music culture, each of these heavy-duty, titanium-plated bangers are a tribute to different styles of beats, reinterpreted and suffused with his distinct personality.

The release also comes with a fanzine, which continues the celebration of DJing and dancefloors from a sideways perspective, curating photos taken by Simo of drinks tokens from clubs around the world.

Belgian artist and Maloca Records founder Le Motel returns to the label for a new EP, ‘Sueños’, his most expansive work to date. Released on the 11th February, Le Motel draws from the worldly ethos of the label to bring together collaborators from the UK, Ghana, Spain and Brussels. 

Meaning dream in Spanish, ‘Sueños’ was made during the lockdown and is inspired by the fragments for dreams and the incapacity of experiencing music and life in a physical way. On Le Motel’s two solo cuts, ‘Sueños’ and ‘Talking To Drums’, the dynamic artist showcases his signature percussive driven sound. With the global influences from the collaborators, ‘Sueños’ continues to expand across heavyweight grime on ‘Love Talk Bad’ with Logan, glitchy IDM with Cabasa on ‘Libet’s Delay’, Clara! bringing reggaeton flavours to ‘Rápido’ and Bryte provides his distinctive vocals to the heavy bass rhythms of ‘Wonteeda’. 

As a music producer and film composer, Le Motel’s versatility has taken him to festivals and clubs in every direction and as a field recordist, he has ventured out to the less accessible areas of the globe to source sounds for his enriching productions. Having produced for some of Belgium’s biggest hip hop artists, Le Motel has also released on Portugal’s XXIII, LA’s TAR and New Zealand’s Cosmic Compositions. 

Launching Maloca Records in 2020, Le Motel aims to bring together a global network of makers which was highlighted on the label’s first compilation, Maloca Vol. 1. The release focused on a terrestrial and borderless percussive sound that has been bubbling in clubs and Le Motel’s orbit, featuring tracks from Nick León, OMAAR, DJ JM, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Coen, DJ N.K. and Tsongo. Maloca has also released solo EPs from Howie Lee, Farsight and more recently Griffit Vigo.

SHE Spells Doom - Manta

Within the mystical cradle of the Andean woodlands, the age-old murmurs of Chirimia Caucana entwine with the vibrant cadences of Techno, giving rise to an otherworldly mosaic of melody. Here, in this enchanting symphony, unfolds a sacred ballet—a primal union of the inner self with the celestial expanse, where ancient rites stir with each pulsating rhythm, weaving intricate connections between corporeal form and ethereal essence, resonating throughout the very essence of being.

An outlet for his more club-friendly productions. 
Lowdown was written mid 2014 and was one of the first for what would become the letabruthaknow project.  A heavy-handed tune to help you sway on the dancefloor at half time.

'Hinged', the new @decisionsrecords EP from pals @cop-envy & @1djplead, came together over the course of two summer nights in Melbourne (where DJ Plead is based).

Across three tracks the pair, who have both released killer releases this year on Hypercolour and Nervous Horizon respectively, come together in sonic alignment to harness and explore shared interests in intriguing instrumentals packed with compelling percussion, melodies, themes and more.

On EP opener 'Hinged' it's safe to say the door into the rest of the release (see what we did there?) is well and truly opened as listeners are greeted with a heady onslaught of militant percussion, eerie textures and minimal, meandering melodic elements.

Cop Envy & DJ Plead’s ‘Hinged’ EP lands on November 8 via Decisions. Pre-order the digital EP below and check out the lush artwork while you're at it. Plus, be sure to cop the limited hand-stamped 12" on release day too.
