Three years ago in a different life, we used to release tracks for people to dance in a club. We still miss it sometimes, so we decided to repeat the feeling. The second Born Free EP is what we personally think is our best, so we kindly asked the label to put it out on our personal Bandcamp page. To keep it fresh and more exclusive we added a very different version of the Navy Fit Republic track. It's called Dub State. It was born during a session of mixing with Leo and his mighty space echo when we tried to make a dubbed out bass in it, but in the end, and rightfully so, Sling picked the cleaner version. We couldn't agree more, but that second version remained in our hearts and we were waiting for a good opportunity to share it with friends. The pack also includes a poster and a great "Death Dancing Waltz" cover by one and only Marko aka Floating Bstrd, which now feels almost like a precursor of what happened with the world since then. We hope this waltz will end soon and the kick returns. And then comes a snare.

Our second digital release is a collection of secret cuts, double edits, edits turned into original tracks, and dub versions of classics. All were made during the last 9 years for private use, experimental live gigs, and podcasts. At some point, it was obvious that these five pieces must be a part of the new Lower Ground Floor Series. Please support and share. Art by Kei. Mixing and mastering by Lipelis.

Lower Ground Floor II

Especial is delighted to welcome Odopt back to the label, this time teaming up with Sano for a club-heavy global excursion and the vocal deep dive of Picha. A meeting of friends and collaborators across continents and years, finally presented in vocal and instrumental, as well the welcome return of label stalwart Jamie Paton with additional remix and dub to bite.

Long-time fans of Sebastian Hoyos aka Sano’s productions, seeing him release for Matias Aguayo’s Comeme and Munich’s Public Possession, Especial jumped at the chance to present Odopt’s reworkings of Sano’s oeuvre, taking vocalist’s Lolito
night-time exoticisms and offering a red-lit basement, dark room anthem.

As with all good things, time let the music ferment. The 2016 outline became a 2019 demo, first presented to the label, and emphatically embraced. With Sano returning from Barcelona to his native Columbia, replacing the world of club culture with horticulture, Odopt found their new Paris base led them to finally hit the pocket, the tribal percussion propelled by the razor-sharp snare and perfectly, more cowbell.

Who better than to request remixes than the origin of Especial, its first artist, mainstay mixer, and designer of each artwork since the label’s birth in late 2013, Jamie Paton. Having gone on to release for label peers and inspirations, ESP Institute and Multi Culti, this is a welcome return. Paton’s trademark deep dubwise is ever present, as is the exemplary programming, but now the twist of breaks in Remix form gives this EP widescreen dynamics.

The sound system stretching Dub mix rounds off, the vocals pulled back, the wobble and trembling bass, again highlight Especial’s mission, club music for the head and feet, mixing new wave with neu rave, beats with breaks, looking back but always, always moving forwards.
