Collecting Seaweed EP

Premiere: Shielding 'Reserv'

Two sets of never-ending, towering concrete blocks faced off each other, alternating rhythmically to electric power transmission lines and large swathes of luxuriant green, that stretched out towards the sky and met to create domes of flora. Here, gigantic walking palms coexisted peacefully alongside barrigonas, huicungos and pallas, and many more trees, flowers and plants that offered shelter from the incessant, warm showers that graced the land and its terracotta paths on an almost daily basis. And beneath this humid undergrowth, a quiet but vibrant array of creatures lived amongst the ungurahuis and rubber trees; most of the fauna opted for a nocturnal lifestyle that dimmed their exotic colours and allowed them to showcase their diverse vocal abilities without being seen. 

Gottwax, the record label arm of Wales-own Gottwood Festival, returns after four years with a 30-track compilation that evokes the spirit of the music festival. Featuring electronic stalwarts such as Roman Flügel, DJ Tennis and Margaret Dygas, alongside fledgling emerging talents, we get a taste of the collection, compiled by the festival owners and new label manager Geoff Kirkwood AKA Me Me Me records boss Man Power. With Em & Stav's "Driver", the duo share a muted piece of Bristol-infused bass brimming with minimal sounds, glitching accents and unfettered beats.

Gottwax present: Nottwax – A Gottwood Compilation

PREMIERE: Em & Stav - Driver [Gottwax]

Hazy orange words buzzed on the screens around the airport, line after line read the same word: 'Delayed'. She sat on the floor amongst all the other disgruntled customers, pondering how long she'd be here before an update sounded across the tannoy. She had always hated travelling but she didn't mind waiting. It offered time for thought and contemplation, and that had become something of a rarity nowadays...

Glasgwegian native Andy Graham AKA Sei A returns to his regular home Aus Music for what marks his fourth studio album, Kinetic Action, and the first full length since 2016's Space In Your Mind. Known for his ability to weave subtle melodies throughout his productions, be it sparse dub or hypnotic techno, Sei A has crafted a distinct sound that shines across his lengthy discography. Alongside the album, Aus Music call on the remix duties of two UK techno mainstays, Surgeon and Hodge, who each bring their razor sharp touch to the originals.

PREMIERE: Sei A - Jets (Hodge Remix) [Aus Music]

As he lay in the tall grass he looked upwards towards the heavens with a glazed expression. The clouds moved slowly and the wind howled in his ears as he struggled for breath. There was a splutter, a cough and a gasp. For a minute he wasn't sure if he might ever catch the air again but his smart lung, the one which he had left was what kept him afloat, at least for a little while longer anyway. In the distance he could hear the sound of sirens as they raced towards him, he smiled and laughed beneath the sun. 

Sputnik One is set to release a new EP via First Second Label, an imprint upon which he has appeared previously. The new EP is perhaps his most accomplished work to date, an intriguing assortment of tracks with odd twinges here and there.
