Amman-based Toumba announces Rosefinch, his first EP on wax, and the debut release from London-based record label Hypnic Jerks. The Jordanian DJ, producer and sound designer integrates elements from Jordanian and Levantine folk music into his left-leaning, low-end heavy club sounds. The EP is named after the national bird of Jordan.

Toumba is a curator at MNFA, a club and arts space in Jordan’s capital Amman. It has become a haven for the country’s artistic community in the face of a conservative establishment that often harbours a hostile attitude towards the types of cultural expression that MNFA champions.

A nationally respected artist, Toumba also holds a residency at the MMAG Foundation in Amman. The foundation works with a selection of the most gifted artists in the Levant (Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Palestine), providing a space for artistic research, production and critical discourse.

Multipack of Limes is a percussive workout dotted through with zesty keys, building up to a driving lead that recalls the keyboard players of Jordanian weddings. Shurooq and Sa7rawi are both representative of Jordan's beautiful pink-tinted deserts. Shurooq, meaning 'sunrise', is a slow burner, which builds anticipation through its synth and percussive elements before a huge weighty sub-bass ties the track together. Sa7rawi, an aggressive peak-time chugger, evocatively conveys the beauty and harsh ruggedness of the desert's terrain. Lil Amam Sir, a term used in the army meaning "march forward", is one for the DJs: a four to the flour banger complete with microtonal polyrhythm synth hits that are sure to get the crowd two-stepping like clockwork.

Closing off Dam Swindle's 3rd 'Keep On Swindling' installment is DJ Bone’s Doc Ciroc remix of ‘The Wrap Around’. DJ Bone goes for pacey percussion with a classic Detroit Techno feel. His version is minimalistic and raw, chopping up the vocal and using the original Prophet pad as a base layer of warmth. The track gets even beefier when the bassline comes in: A dirty modded 101 lick with so much electronic funk that makes it impossible not that dance.

It was pretty much at the end of the last century when @reznik dragged his record boxes into a night club for the first time. He was living in Leipzig at the time, and the city’s vibrant and elaborate underground scene for electronic music had a big impact on his mindset.

In 2019 he started a collaborative project with long-time friend and kindred spirit Good Guy Mikesh (@ggm-filburt) with key releases on @keinemusik, Permanent Vacation or 2MR. He strives for DJ sets that draw on groove and on soul (not necessarily the musical genre, but the spiritual entity) and go wherever they need to go.

Fast forward a few years, and the Keinemusik crew member once again teams up with Mikesh  the pairs’ 'One More’ EP set for release on December 9. "Let’s give it one more try“ croons Mikesh himself on the title-track, premiering exclusively on Mixmag today. The steady yet pulsating groove of this string and piano-kissed tune has all the qualities of a future anthem, effortlessly crossing the boundaries of indie and dance. The EP includes uspenseful, synth-laden B-side “Read The Room,“ and the vinyl version includes bonus track.

Premiere: Reznik & Mikesh 'One More'

As a forward thinking bridge between UK Garage and House music, Timehri Records has established itself as a fiercely independent, leading contributor to the underground scene in the UK and overseas since its inception.

For their biggest project yet, label owner T Dunn presents the full Timehri narrative in LP form through a collaboration with label mainstay and master of his art, DJ Perception.

Timehri is a Guyanese Amerindian word meaning Rock Motif or Petroglyph – the Timehri represent personifications of the universe as viewed by their creators – painted thousands of years ago in the Guyana hinterland.

Premiere: DJ Perception, 'Jupiter's Lullaby'
