Ecstasy Garage Disco releases

2020: August Premieres

rave3

Renegade Riddims Mrs Magoo

ARTIST: @kolya-x-now
TITLE: 'Crying Over Spilt Poppers'
CAT: EGD004
RELEASE DATE: September 26th
DISTRO: Rubadub

Raised somewhere between Ministry Of Sound’s ‘The Annual’ and early music message boards, Kolya’s taste still extends from obscure tape-only releases to turn-of-the-millennium
trance anthems. 

As a DJ, it’s taken the South Londoner from Bugged Out! to Berlin – at home supporting Demdike Stare with coldwave, spinning runway house alongside MikeQ while a House Of Trax resident, or unleashing noughties fidget at the closing of Camden’s infamous Lock Tavern. All of which is to say, his debut EP for Ecstasy Garage Disco arrives steeped in musical history. 

Recorded during lockdown, it draws on perhaps his greatest love, deep (deep, deep) house. A soaring synth work out, opener ‘Stick Together’ is a case in point, standing on the shoulders of giants like Peter Daou, but with a life-affirming exuberance all of its own. ‘Miss Honey Prancin’ In The Twilite’, meanwhile, is a tribute to Moi Rene, as well as a love letter to Project X Records in general, her vocal recast over a groove that alternates between outer space iciness and snare-rolling high drama. 

On the flip, ‘Crying Over Spilt Poppers’ blends the flavour of amyl-soaked Gherkin with the emotional nuance of Nu Groove, joyous and reflective in equal measure. And ‘Jamais Vu’ signs off, its bumping kick pattern and intertwining melodic layers connecting glimmering 90s electronica and contemporary, future-facing house.

STMPD RCRDS Year Mix 2019 Side B

Nominated as one of Reggaeville's best albums of 2019, Origin One's "Deeply Rooted" covered many bases, showing the producers deep love of dub, reggae, dancehall, hip hop and also jungle. Entrenched in the Nottingham soundsystem scene, the influences run deep, none more so than on the jungle infused "Tribute". Enlisting the help of drum & bass legend MC Spyda (known for the anthem "Tarantula" amongst many others) and afro warrior K.O.G, this tune proved very popular with fans, so we thought it only right we give it a proper release with a couple of remixes.

Stepping up first is Metalheadz very own Zero T who gives the track a sparse rolling relick, throwing back to the classic vibe of 90s drum & bass whilst keeping the emotions raw and the drums choppy. Doing the rounds as an exclusive dub for over 6 months has helped buld the demand for this killer remix. Next up, Italian soundboys Sub Alpine get their smoke on for a digital rubadub rework, building a whole new riddim from the ground up and adding their own style.

Not many sounds are so unmistakable as the heavyweight rollings of S.P.Y. Joined by Bristol's own badboy MC Jakes, this combo is flawless - one hour of pure heat + deep vocals, you might need to warn the neighbours before this one gets put on.

Rupture with Double O & Type - 12 August 2020

Dexorcist, aka South London’s Si Brown, has been at the forefront of the UK electro scene since the late 90s – running the seminal Control Tower label with Radioactive Man and producing as part of a number of collaborative projects, including as Kronos Device with Bass Junkie, alongside his solo releases.

His ‘Rage Signal’ EP, the first vinyl release on Ecstasy Garage Disco, journeys further back into his musical roots. Combining a trademark industrial-strength aesthetic with elements of dub, bleep and hardcore, its raw sound unites electro’s bass weight with the undying energy of rave’s early days.

Premiere: Dexorcist 'Rage Signal'

Out August 28, pre-order it here: https://leftrightandcentre.bandcamp.com/album/vol-2-right-place-wrong-time-lrc002-2

@leftrightandcentreuk is back with a heavy new four-track V/A EP 'Right Place, Wrong Time', featuring @kessleruk, @craigwalkermusic, @hyphoofficial and @everettmcr.

Everett's contribution 'Scrapheap Gloop' marks the debut outing for the Manchester-based artist. It's a trippy and atmospheric cut, suffused with swells of rattling arpeggios.

@gooooose and DJ Scotch Egg join forces with an eight-track collaborative EP on Shanghai outlet @svbkvlt. It's the result of the label inviting Berlin-based DJ Scotch Egg for a recording session in China after they met at Uganda's Nyege Nyege Festival in 2019.

It comes backed with remixes from @sevenorbits & @tsvisions and Slikback (@freddymn). The latter's take on title-track 'JAC' submerges in frenetic rhythms in layers of distorted bass

Premiere: Gooooose & DJ Scotch Egg 'JAC' (Slikback remix)

This globe-spanning compilation takes in artists from almost every continent in the world, piecing together the story of how shared sounds and ideas connect many seemingly disparate scenes and cultures across the planet.

Premiere: Amazondotcom & Siete Catorce 'Absent City'

Out August 28, pre-order it here: https://sq.lnk.to/WM014_

Ahead of the release of his upcoming EP on @melladeemusic's @warehousemusicrecords, @leo-pol shares title-track 'Priviet'. It typifies the sound the French producer is increasingly showing his expertise in: robust, uplifting house music.
