Wallace has been something of a behind the scenes phenomenon. Having just two official releases at the time of writing, alongside a few white-labels on his own ‘Tartan’ imprint - The man known as Wallace has somehow worked his way into the record bags of the worlds biggest DJ’s: Gilles Peterson, Hunee, Moxie, Ruf Dug, Gideon and beyond.

It’s only a matter of time before the wider dance music community catches on - and I wouldn’t be surprised if - by the time this record hits the shelves - WALLACE-MANIA is in full effect. An artist like this only comes along once in a blue moon. Wallace has been quietly perfecting his craft for the last decade, and has a deep understanding of club dynamics that can’t be taught. Bradley Zero himself has been playing 4/5 Wallace tracks per set within the last year alone! Luckily for you, the secret is out, and we, for one - cannot wait!

Ripples 

PREMIERE: Wallace - Shanghai Street

Stories would be told about him one day, that was for certain. As the sun began to set he looked out over his small village and considered his options, might he run away or stay and fight. The light was fading slowly and it felt symbolic of the way in which his own time was running out.

Never had he imagined he might be forced out like this, yet his truth was all that mattered now and the stories that he’d leave behind would go down to be those of mischief and meander. Perhaps it was always supposed to be this way, a Lahla boy running wild and free with no place to go.

Supreems is set to release a new album on the newly launched Sweet Sun. It features a number of emotive electronic cuts channeling elements of broken beat, breaks, UK bass and beyond. This track features vocals from Off the Meds affiliated vocalist Kamohelo.

PREMIERE: Supreems Ft. Kamohelo - Lahla Boy [Sweet Sun]

On his second excursion for Oath, Manchester-based producer Loz Goddard continues to nurture the clubby side of his sound with a razor-sharp and bombastic EP that contains all you could ever wish for when it comes to breaks, euphoria, and sonic depth…. 

As a producer, Loz has operated under a number of guises, but one thing has always remained - his elegant and inspired application of melody. His early career was marked by a number of superb releases on labels such as Church, Tusk Wax, Apparel and many more, all of which highlighted a deep affection for groove, tone and atmosphere. The music largely operated within the realms of Deep House - at times spilling over into Nu-Disco - but there was always a little bit of shine on each EP that pointed to other spheres of influence, and it was these references points that made Loz Goddard’s music feel broad, considered and introspective. The music appealed on many levels and provided plenty of worlds and spaces in which listeners could get deeply involved within, and this journey is filled with beautifully polished gems that can be held and admired in your hands time and time again.

Apranik Records returns with their second various artist compilation of 2023, Intended Consequence, representing a fresh lineup of Iranian women musicians and producers from across the electronic music spectrum. 

Intended Consequence follows in the footsteps of Apranik’s first compilation Woman Life Freedom, which was released as a response to the women-lead uprisings in Iran after the killing of Mahsa Zhina Amini. This new release includes tracks from label co-founders AIDA and Nesa Azadikhah, as well as some of Iran’s most talented musicians and sound artists such as Rojin Sharafi, Aida Shirazi, Ava Rasti, and more. Rooted in telling the story of Iranian women’s perpetual fight for freedom in Iran, this release paints the picture of power, resistance, and persistence in moments of chaos or calm. 

From the experimental, glitchy club rhythms of AZADI.mp3’s Empty Platform, through the clattering jungle styling of Abji_hypersun’s Resist The God Trick, to the warm breakbeats of Nesa Azadikhah’s Perpetual and shimmering 4/4 loops of AIDA’s Ode To Expectations, this is a proudly diverse and fiercely individual collection of tracks from some of the most talented female artists in electronic music today, and deserves to be recognised as such. Elsewhere you’ll find polyrhythmic electro in the form of Rojin Sharafi’s Dbkkk – a track suffused with both beauty and raw aggression – and the beatless experimentation of Farzané’s Quorl; a highly experiential, amorphous cut that pulses with both organic and mechanical sentience, creating a deeply unsettling and memorable atmosphere.Intended consequences are outcomes that arise from choices we make to do something or be someone despite the risks posed to us. At the moment of choosing, and every moment thereafter, the potential consequences equally living and breathing, exercise our bravery and strength. Intended Consequence is a collection of music dedicated to the choice and continuum of Iranian women’s fight for freedom in the day-to-day.

Despite the risks, women in Iran are choosing to go outside, run errands, and take their children to school without the mandatory hijab. They show their resilience by breaking the rules enforced upon them to wear clothes they don’t want, to behave in ways they don’t agree with, and to live lives they don’t believe in: all of which are values that are reflected in Intended Consequence. With this collection Apranik present an arsenal of music from some of the Iranian community’s most talented women musicians; musicians who have carved their path with passion and intention despite known consequences.

PREMIERE: AIDA - Ode To Expectations

Klasse Wrecks & Kid Who launch .NFO, a series of records showcasing previously unreleased house, techno, acid and more from the 90s Amiga Demoscene.

Created using early sample sequencers such as ProTracker, these tracks radiate the authentic energy of techno’s golden era - and they’ve been hiding in plain sight in Demoscene web repositories for many years. It was during the long days of the 2020 lockdowns that Kid Who began to explore these archives, sifting through thousands of tracks to eventually amass a collection of several hundred of his favourites. Curated by Klasse Wrecks and Kid Who in close collaboration with the talented artists behind them, the .NFO project aims to bring some of these finds to the broader dance music community via a series of VA 12”s and mixes.

On his second excursion for Oath, Manchester-based producer Loz Goddard continues to nurture the clubby side of his sound with a razor-sharp and bombastic EP that contains all you could ever wish for when it comes to breaks, euphoria, and sonic depth….

‘Are We Ever Leaving Here’ builds upon the energies found within his debut LP, providing a bitesize experience that aims itself directly at the dance floor - but listening at home provides a lot of scope for inward escapism.
