Porridge Bullet’s “Sunda School” series takes a shot at the world famous club format: 12” vinyl.

This is part three & LLL provide the goods. Hi–jinx gritty schmitty ghetto–house flavoured business “Friday Rituals” meets hazy & drunken dub paranoia “92” on the A side. The flip starts off with acidic “Yyyeah Exactly”. Microphone’s switched on again, la–di–daaa. The squelching sequence goes ta–ta–ta–ta–tataa. You can hear the fun & should mind the cowbell. Rugged & raw “Sunda School” edition for the club kids.

Tallinn's OG mainstay Nikolajev hops back on Sad Fun camp to hand out two bass loyal dancefloor beasts. A side “Lego Dub” steps on it accurately with its beat all flanged up & pushed to the red of course. Arpeggiator carousels doing the rounds with Niko’s vocals sprayed left & right, front & back like bad hallucinations. Hihat chewing your ear off. Are we there yet? Nope. B side has the funk. And chaos. Let the acidic bass sink in & soundtrack your mid–summer madness. Trust Nikolajev to be your guide, always.

Nikolajev - Lego Dub / Tongue Double (Sad Fun Records)

https://muscut.bandcamp.com/album/transplant-rejection

Transplant Rejection’ is the second in a trilogy of cassette albums released via Muscut in the latter half of 2022. The work of Estonian artist and IDA Radio co-founder Robert Nikolajev, this collection of seven ‘almost’ dark ambient tracks embody the melancholy of autumn whilst hinting at the forthcoming eternal winter. A man with many hats, Nikolajev operates on the fringes of the leftfield house underground for labels such as Incienso, Collect-Call and Sad Fun as well as being one half of the sporadic DIMA DISK act with Ragnar Rahouja. Eschewing the more rhythmic side of his productions for this Muscut tape, Nikolajev taps into the fictional soundtrack atmospheres the label is known for and brings his own brand of wistful, introspective world-building by way of machine harmony to the now Tallinn based imprint.

There’s a lo-fi, grainy quality running throughout the collection, a kind of sepia-toned nostalgia that envelops the listener and disorientates any perception of time or place. Buried vocal fragments sit in the mix on ‘Stifled’ alongside decaying synthesiser drones whilst ‘DDM’ channels an edgy post-rock dirge with its use of sagged bass guitar. Overall, an inspired look into the more ‘at home’ side of this increasingly prolific Estonian...  more

Dalmata Daniel ‎– DDD06
Jeremiah Soft - Advanced Pulmonology EP
[w/ Nikolajev Remix]

Previews: http://bit.ly/DDD06snippets
Pre-order: http://bit.ly/DDD06order

Ethereal yet Dense could be the motto of the sixth Dalmata Daniel Digital release by Budapest-based producer Jeremiah Soft with an excellent remix by Nikolajev.

'Advanced Pulmonology' is characterized by a variety of interwoven themes, which are expressed by the EP's track titles as well. The six tracks evoke the impressions of clean oxygen and calm breathing, yet on the other hand, remind us memories of heavy, dusty air that chokes us in our everyday urban life. Pulmonology, a medical specialty that focuses on the respiratory tract and lungs was also the primary inspiration for this release.

Jeremiah Soft is a more introspective, contemplative side project of the rhythm-driven Nemerov. Dalmata Daniel is trying to open minds and venture into the experimental electronic music universe with this futuristic mixture of IDM and Electro, but we are also thankful for the remix by Nikolajev who gives another layer to this already complex sound with a specific 90s vibe, using drum samplers and bass guitar to rethink the original track.

DDD06 comes with a Studio Jetski designed limited button collection during the pre-order period, which is the physical part of this EP.
