Carnegie's Brae

Everyday Thoughts Vol. 1

2025 SINGLES

We are excited to present the first in our new digital series, by Meld affiliated Mod-R. In true Out of Sorts style, Mod-R serves up four percussive, breaks-fuelled workouts for the clubs. Maya Q rounds off with a refined, UK-funky laced twist on the title track.

PREMIERE : Mod - R - Jury

[IOM PREMIERE] mod-r & Obatalla - No Hands

Off the back of a stunning multi-genre release on Bristol-based label Out of Sorts, mod-r continues his foray into new musical styles in 2022. With an impressive backlog of releases on Out of Sorts, childsplay, Shubzin, CAROUSE, Belek Records, Jerry Horny, Hyperdome Records, Hang Tough, Angels Gun Club and his own imprint Meld Records, mod-r has developed outstanding technical abilities allowing him to produce tracks spanning electro, breaks, jungle and percussive styles. His EP on Gimme A Break Records broadens the Aberdeen-based producer’s repertoire further by exploring the recently revived UK Garage/Breaks crossover with Obatalla.
“Lord (Rave Mix)” offers a warehouse-ready anthem brimming with expertly chopped breakbeats. The track’s euphoric vocal lines and hardcore-inspired keys offer brief respite from the EP’s otherwise murky sound palette.

Mod-R & Obatalla - No Hands (Shawn Cartier Remix)

Shake the Future

mod-r & Obatalla - Shake the Future

Reminiscences from the old skool calling to your mind, with the RAVE FACTORY V.A., Dance-orientated encounters between broken beats and 4 on the floor, giving an edgier look on Rave, Breakbeat House, Jungle Techno, and OldSchool Hardcore as some of the first genres to narrow the gap between different ethnic backgrounds from around the world like Hip Hop,Rock,Dub, R&B, Punk House, and Techno to merge them into something new.

Rusty syncopated drum samples, chest-hitting leads, woofers smashing sub-bass patterns, a constant wave between 2-step and 4x4 Kick drum Patterns, and vocal motifs from back in the day.

A tribute to the endless summer of love coming from Bogotá, Glasgow, Mendoza, Moscow, Tbilisi, L.A., Galway, Brighton, Berlín, Buenos Aires, Lyon, Bradford, Sao Paulo, Auckland, London, Olavarria,& París.

4 continents, 13 countries, 17 cites, 1 beat, 1 love.
