Scruscru, Jehan, Meowsn - Scru's Hustle [Deeppa Records]

Nicewon comes through on the winter slump, with some phat and warm joints from Christian James and Jeff Swiff. This EP drips with the flavor you'd expect from these two. We hope you enjoy these four new cuts, strate outta flyover, USA.

APPAREL PREMIERE: Christian James - Jesters Come Back [Nicewon Recordings]

To celebrate 10 years of one of London’s most loved underground club nights, Tangent, Mr Bongo are thrilled to launch this new compilation series. Crafted by its two residents, John Gómez and Nick the Record, it aims to transmit a taste of Tangent’s spirit. A party rooted in inclusivity and open-mindedness, whose name captures the spontaneous switches in musical direction that are a defining element of their nights. For the compilation, the pair have cherry-picked a selection of their prized, rare and dancefloor-ready tracks from around the globe, that have soundtracked the past decade of parties.

Friends for close to 20 years, music lovers, record obsessives and internationally renowned DJs in their own right, John and Nick have two lifetimes worth of musical knowledge to draw from. John a long-standing NTS Radio resident and compiler for Music From Memory. Nick one of the UK’s go-to record dealers, resident DJ since the ‘90s at one of Japan’s pioneering parties, Life Force, and co-captain / co-edit-expert of Record Mission with Dan Tyler (Idjut Boys).

In 2014, the pair decided to bring some of Life Force’s grassroots principles to the UK, whilst channelling underground clubbing institution Plastic People’s meticulous attitude to sound. Tangent grew from being a small gathering of friends, to an established fixture in London’s nightlife, whilst always maintaining a strict no guest DJ policy. “As London’s clubs have become increasingly reliant on international guests, we wanted to emphasize the importance of a club night growing through its residents”, John and Nick reflect. With 10 years of the duo at the helm, an intimate connection between DJ and dancefloor has been built, allowing for freedom of expression on both sides of the decks.

Tangent reaches around the globe and across different eras to make connections that stimulate emotional reverberations in the unfamiliar. Where the blissfully Balearic ‘Laberinto’ by Miguel Perikás, goes hand-in-hand with the Cameroonian hip-house of King B.’s ‘Love is Crazy’. The thundering ‘Amek Amek’ by L'Innovateur Djoe Ahmed et le Zoukabyle, rubs shoulders with the soulful Caribbean-influenced touch of Champagn’s ‘Bel Ti Négress’. And Pellegrin El Kady’s afro-cosmic ‘Seiva de Carnaval’, crosses paths with Kajou’s Kompa disco anthem ‘Tet Chajé’.

Tangent’s longevity is in part down to it having always embraced contemporary sounds. The sub-rattling bass of Srirajah Sound System’s stunning Molam dub stepper ‘Si Phan Don Lovers Rock’ and the slow, woozy mantra of leftfield dancehall explorer Androo’s ‘Lyriso’, are two shining examples.

This compilation represents an ongoing dialogue between past and present, transporting listeners to the heart of a pure musical experience, where open minds and open hearts are eager to follow the tangent.

Exciting things are happening as UK-producer Drum Dance launches his new label, ‘Into The Cosmos’, with a standout four-track release that showcases his eclectic taste and production skills. Among the tracks is the captivating "Venus Dub 2", a must-hear for fans of dub, jazz, and Balearic sounds.

"Venus Dub 2" is an 80s jazz Balearic-inspired track that takes a journey to Kingston for a bass-heavy dub makeover. The resulting track is a lush, atmospheric track with irresistible grooves. Drum Dance's production shines as he expertly balances influences to create a track that's both relaxing and propulsive, making it a perfect addition to any summer playlist.

As for the rest of the EP, the release kicks off with "Zani!", a cosmic head-nodder influenced by both Chicago footwork and Malian music, paying homage to the legendary Zani Diabaté. Following this is "Body Heat", a Latin-flavored boogie number that keeps the energy high with its four-to-the-floor beat, sultry disco vocals, and jazzy keys.

Closing the release is "Adan On Dòt Soley", a personal dedication to the beautiful island of Gwadloup. This track begins with spaced-out synths and evolves into a dubby percussive jam, featuring the enchanting Fender Rhodes keys recorded by Andy Wileman. Field recordings of birds singing, waves lapping, and the sounds of gwo ka drumming on the beach bring the listener to a serene and soulful conclusion.

The EP is released this Friday, on vinyl, pressed by Vinyl Factory and digital. Available directly via Bandcamp, plus Juno, Phonica, Redeye Records, Clone, HHV, Deejay.de, and so on.
