Shai FM - Pull Up

🌀💦🔄💦With Liquid Transfers, Esgeem pulls you into an enchanted, misty universe, with vibrant ambience and deep-toned rumbles. Delicate, tangible sounds hypnotize and engage the senses. Half synthetic, half organic textures are layered over on familiar rhythmic structures. Deep, pulsating bass flows between the unhurried and persistent beats of the kick drum. Modest breakdowns emphasize the negative space. This deliberate minimalism only adds to the intensity of the tracks and places the feeling at the forefront: otherworldly, exotic, and brimming with energy.

@esgeem - Leipzig-based producer and dj, part of the Breakfest collective. His productions offer a harmonious balance between sonic introspection and uninhibited movement, drawing from halftime, dub and UK bass to form futuristic club music.

Blu Terra - Fix

MR006 crashes in straight from Brno, carving out a sonic current mirroring the ever-mutating scene. COUNT’s latest EP, a playful yet razor-sharp exploration of sound, provides a pack of oddly satisfying rollers. Spanning a spectrum of 140+, this four-track offering blends three originals with a remix from HEDO HYDR8 

THIRD TAKE starts off with CONVULSE, a pacey breakbeat track created to shake the early (and quicker) hours of the morning. The project then takes a more introspective approach as FIREWALL BLOCK rolls into the #2 stop. With a similarly quick BPM register, FIREWALL BLOCK employs traces of dub and jungle along its varied storyboard. Coming up next is BLACKTAIL, a headbanger turned electro track suitable for a variety of people, places, and things. Bring up the caboose* is a remix from HEDO HYDR8. This time it's a fully pumped up techno remix of the aforementioned track.

Shai FM - Uncoiled

Gamma Intel returns to Nerve Collect with four tracks of electrically charged bass, techno and broken beats. His Time Loop EP explores a range of rhythms and tempos aimed squarely at the floor.

Nerve Collect co-founder Gamma Intel is Dutchman Laurens van de Werken. He has always worked at the intersection of several different sounds, even as his references have evolved from chugging techno to deconstructed jungle. A unifying theme is this meticulous sound design: it's leftfield and experimental but underpinned by irresistible rhythms while his synths are so tactile you could almost reach out and grab them. His latest studio adventures mark another subtle shift across four hard-to-define and otherworldly transmissions sent back from the future.

‘Construct’ crackles with paranoid urgency driven by underlapping drums that push a cantering rhythm. Fragmented vocal chops and fuzzy, static-laced synths swirl throughout the mix to create a vortex of controlled chaos. Eerie breakdowns offer fleeting breaths, but the creeping tension of surveillance never fully releases before the disorienting momentum draws you back in. ‘Node’ feels like a computer meltdown fused with a floating, dub-inflected and steppy rhythm. Snares flutter up top as frothing synths and warped bass bring the pressure. The final touch is human vocals, decayed by signal inference, which melt into percussive loops and echo about the mix. 

‘Cycle’ takes a more muscular approach. The oversized drums and hits engage in battle with a snaking lead as a backlit glow consumes both to provide for a moment of human beauty that contrasts with the stark machine warfare around it. ‘Lever’ dives into deep dubstep madness, its full-bodied waves lurching like a storm-tossed ocean. Intricate details like distant sirens, flickering streetlights and mutant sine waves fill the stereo field and, paired with the unstoppable rhythmic force, hypnotise body and mind. 

Gamma Intel's Time Loop EP is a masterclass in tension, texture and momentum that pushes club music into uncharted territory, keeps the body moving and the imagination fully engaged.
