Rooted in those rare moments of tranquility throughout a parent’s life, Early Color is the auditory memoir of Griff through his time as a stay-at-home dad to a growing toddler making sense of the world. Conceptually, the album is laid out as a natural progression starting with the beautiful field recordings of ‘Zoom Deck’ and warm melody of ‘Hemmed’, both evoking visions of a hazy, forest morning, slowly waking up after night’s embrace. Shaking off the slumber, ‘Steel Wool’ provides an energetic start to the day as most children tend to do, to the dismay of some parents. Followed by the understated grooves of ‘Bubby & the Submersible’.

Approaching the second half of the album, ‘Trace Fossil’ and ‘Atoll’ kick things into gear with ear-worm-like melodies that build and build throughout into an emotional trip, while ‘FGH’ brings a more melancholic take. Capping off the string of four on the floor tracks is the growling ‘Why Yellow’, a more serious number that would fit well in many a dj set. Alighting from the burst of energy, we have the breakish beats of ‘Resnooze’, whose warm bass-lines and wide ranging synths envelop the listener. Finally arriving at the last track, the aptly named ‘Sitting Quietly Looking at Things’ is a musical combination of all that was prior. Emotive, textured, impactful, as the spoken word sampled lends such an air to the track.

Early Color’s artwork was also created by Griff, through a series of layered scans and is evocative of both his music, and the visual direction of Never Late. As a collection of personal moments, sounds, experiences will be key to future releases, as we strive to find the best expression of each artist that we work with.

Ça sonne un peu comme l’hiver. Des notes chaudes qui scintillent. Froids et lents - rythmes dancehall -. Des voix hip-hop qui croustillent. Une danse énigmatique et ciné(ma)tique (de la tempête dans la nuit). Enregistré sur mon canapé pendant la tempête de Novembre dernier. 

It sounds a bit like winter. Warm sparkling notes. Cold and slow - dancehall beats -. Crunchy hip-hop voices. Enigmatic and cine(ma)tic dance (of the storm in the night). Recorded on my couch during the storm of November.

DJ Marcus Paulson - Junction 4 Recordings Mix (Part 1)

The third release on Derek Russo’s own Broad Channel imprint “Special Occasion" EP arrives loaded with a wide palate of club swagger for any hour of the party. “Celestial Machine” is the A1 rough and rumbling trip, steered by a wiggly SH101 bass line and anchored by a thunderous sub bass and tenacious, rattling percussion. A floating pad briefly takes the edge off before lurching back. The sounds here are inspired and shaped by the aching cacophony of city life. “Yearning 4 Love” marries a Detroit inspired motif, with tasteful synth layering and bouncy, off-kilter drum programming. The result is an inquisitive banger, something different for the modern dance floor.

On the flip side, the title track ‘Special Occasion’ drops the tempo to a chugging rhythm that swings from a funky break tucked underneath. Deranged piano chords open up to a sinister synth line, jangling guitar and a thick 80s bass line. The final track “Planet Sunset” closes out this EP with a soaring, introspective synth floating on top of a rolling breakbeat groove, disco fed bass work and Juno stabs that resolves into a wave of oozy pad chords - a sure piece for the late night discerning dance floor.

Youss (Electric bazaar- Nurture) 

Based in Vietnam, but originally from Morocco, Youss had an ingrained passion for music since he can remember. It’s easy to say that the energy he felt when he first went into a club has had him locked ever since. In 2015, Youss took his commitment a step further and swapped the dancefloor for the decks. His selective approach and ability to ignite a party atmosphere with smooth house and techno blends, has him playing in renowned clubs of the region. 
He co-founded Nurture in 2018, a monthly gathering of music lovers focusing on ambient sound. Aiming at DJs and music producers to step out of the traditional club setting, it’s an event that allow exploring the full music spectrum, with a chill and friendly home feel.
