Exploring his interest in the more measured, atmospheric side of electronic music, Movement presents his debut EP under a new alias, Agora. Whilst illustrating the influences of his roots in UKG and Breakbeat, Agora moves further from conventional dance music as the release progresses, finishing with the title track, Oranges & Lemons, an ode to a love of ambient. His most introspective release so far, Oranges & Lemons showcases a transition from the club ready dance space, to a sphere of home listening by the time of the closing track.

Title: Common Ground
Artist: Lisene / Hartta / Sourpuss / Interplanetary Criminal

Release: June 2020

Tracklist:

B2 Interplanetary Criminal - Vapour

Banoffee Pies Records drop the 13th release in the original series. This VA entitled "Common Ground" is a crossover of influences from 4 artists with a selection of tracks all above 150bpm from producers of a similar generation giving a nod to their youth and early musical journeys, largely inspired by Drum & Bass and Jungle raves across the UK.

The release divided in two with a Dark A side and Light B side offering two moods of liquidity. The opening track "Class Of '92" comes from Leeds based Lisene, one half of the Space Cadets duo, with previous releases on Seven Hill Records and more. The A2 from Bristol based Hartta offers a more spooked bass heavy cut with "Hauntology".

The B side begins with title track "Common Ground", an ode to dusted jungle and liquid drum & bass from another Leeds head Sourpuss, known for running the Stretchy Dance Supply parties. The last track on the disc "Vapour" comes from Manchester's Interplanetary Criminal. With his UKG EP "Move Tools" on BP010 landing on the label and many dance floors at the end of 2019, this nostalgic drum scattered jungle cut stylishly closes off the compilation. Limited Press.

NITELIFE Noise // Premiere:  KAHTER - Black Pyramid

Nectar is a celebration of diversity in music. It recognises that without the influence of different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives, music wouldn’t be what it is today. We’ve invited some of our favourite artists who are invested in promoting inclusivity to share an unexpected side of their music taste. Because ultimately, all music, being an individual expression of self, holds equal validity.

Nectar 001 - @vajpower

“I had a lot of fun working with this selection, especially because there are a lot of tracks I would be quite nervous about mixing at the events/live, not only from a purely technical point of view but also because at many events that I play I unnecessarily pressure myself to stay within the 'required/expected genres', especially if I play on a mainly cis male line up. Whereas in reality, mixing the genres up and creating a narrative is my favourite part of DJing! I am starting the mix with Arca's recent release 'Nonbinary', which feels very personal to me, coming out as non-binary not too long ago. To some extent, I feel this mix explores my own gender identity, and overall emotional state at the moment, - going from intense, to dancey and upbeat, to dark, and to deconstructed.
With this mix, I felt very liberated to explore my own music taste and show the versatility of what I am into.”

Essa (Rip)

In what is proving to be a hectic year BTG are serving up a hectic EP from none other than the Dutch maestro TMSV with remixes from the currently prolific A.Fruit and BTG’s very own head honcho Bulu.

Ritalin Jam is just as frenetic as its name suggests and leads you on a twisted, ADHD riddled journey into cyber space. A.Fruit takes Ritalin Jam and makes it entirely her own with a deeper, darker but just as hyperactive feel. 
 
On the B-Side we have Mountain (Wait Here) which is one of TMSV’s signature 140BPM bits that he’s known and loved for. Bulu then takes what was once a deep stepper and tears it up at 170BPM with a rolling yet broken feel.

5 Years Of 1020 Radio

Available here: 1020radio.bandcamp.com/

To celebrate five years of broadcasting, Bristol’s 1020 Radio is proudly releasing its second compilation, composed of exclusive tracks by its resident DJ’s and producers. As with the first edition, all proceeds will be donated to charity, this time being received by ‘Creative Youth Network’, an organisation which helps young people reach their potential and lead fulfilling lives.

Across twenty tracks split over two parts, the record explores the role of dance music within the omnipresent theme of night and day. Beginning with harmonious 2-step and ethereal percussion tools, the daytime section evokes balmy landscapes by marrying high definition sonics with the uplifting musical heritage of the Caribbean.

Night falls, and the record descends into the depths of sub-aquatic techno and cerebral bass music. Here, abstract sound design conjures images of dark, cavernous spaces, where biomechanical rhythms are used to echolocate low lit basements, priming you for last-dance manoeuvres in brave new worlds.

More than ever, UK dance music must reflect on itself in order to move forward. Through this compilation and it’s studio community, 1020 sews together the cultural threads of its contributors into a vast sonic patchwork, demonstrating Bristol’s tradition of bold hybridity, whilst musing on it’s bright future.
