Shermanology - BAM  BAM

MF Records kicks off 2023 with a diverse Various Artists compilation (MFRVA02), welcoming new artists to the label as well as some familiar faces. We feature a selection of up n' coming artists from across the UK and beyond in this 5-track VA designed for the dancefloor.

TODDZ makes his MF debut with his track 'BUBBLIN', a UKG piece bringing the feel-good two-step touch to the VA. Ukrainian powerhouse Sony Synth also makes his debut on the label with his groove-packed dancefloor weapon 'Hey DJ!', featuring a bouncin' bassline and ear candy keys. All the way from the US, we welcome Overworked to the MF roster with his 'Piano Track', a deep tech groover peppered with a catchy vocal hook. Digital Intercourse makes his return to MF with his track 'Patience', a minimal house head bopper. Label head honcho Shane Mahon also makes his return to the label, with industrial-esque glitches and a deep, walking bassline – we certainly 'Feel the Energy'.

Our journey into space continues, and for the 26th release, we give the controls of our mothership to the Supernova. The Italian veterans have made house music a way of life, landing on labels like Defected, Moon Harbour, and 8Bit, not to mention their Lapsus Music. Now, they make their Bamboleo debut with 'Dance On The Moon' EP, served with a remix by Hungarian master Reelow. On the lead, the Florence-based pairs deliver a solid and rumbling original with all the craziness that has accompanied them for over two decades for a gnarly house anthem with a fat bassline, bold drum patterns, and dubby stabs throughout. Next, 'More Than Just A Record' dives into more minimal and deep territories with fast-skipping grooves, funky synths, and jackin bass tones for the perfect blend of raw energy and joyful vibes. Closing things off, Solid Grooves affiliate and Reecords label boss Reelow reworks the main track with his trademark harsh and twisted touch. His remix of 'Dance On The Moon' relies on elastic percussions, slippery splashes of hip-hop sounds, SCI-FI sounds, and edgy grooves for a banging interpretation that allows us to land on the moon safely.

Phil Austrom - Landed In Mallorca Feat. AMOLAD

¡La historia de esta canción es algo que no te esperas! El track estaba listo para salir en mi primer EP con @monoside, y todo iba de maravilla… hasta que, una semana antes del lanzamiento, ¡pum! Me avisan que la voz que había usado era de una canción famosísima con derechos de autor. ¿Te imaginas mi cara? ¡Nunca dejas de descubrir música nueva! (Y yo lo descubrí de la manera difícil, claro).

Así que, al final, el track salió sin voz y lo llamé “Minimalism”, que suena bastante cool, la verdad. Pero la versión con voz estaba ahí, llamándome, así que decidí subir esa “edición especial” a SoundCloud, porque bueno, ¡la música se comparte!

Dato curioso: la voz era de la canción "Something in the Orange" de Zach Bryan. Si no la conoces, ¡tienes que escucharla! Es una canción preciosa. Mi track está bien, claro, pero la original es de otro nivel. ¡Totalmente recomendada!

Sanity label boss Cuartero debuts on Hottrax imprint with ‘Balaba’, featuring two bustling house cuts. 

Spanish producer Cuartero has been serving up a solid string of releases with a whirlwind of DJ performances over the last twelve months spanning Europe, South America, and the USA. Making recent appearances labels like Edible, What NxT and Cinthie’s Beste Freunde, last year also saw Cuartero release on Hot Creations. He now joins Hottrax, another one of Jamie Jones’ imprints, following releases from East End Dubs, Christian Burkhardt, and 9th House. 
 
‘Balaba’ opens the EP with bouncing acid bass, shuffling hats, perky snares and an attention grabbing vox-stab that carries the energy right through. ‘Come On Closer’ then sweeps in with tight drum programming, thumping sub groove, echoing stereo effects, vocal hooks and subtle percussive clicks. 
 
Cuartero ‘Balaba’ drops on Hottrax on 18th October 2019. 

Tracklist: 
1. Balaba 
2. Come On Closer

Cuartero - Balaba

Route 94’s latest musical offering ‘Close’ illustrates his dedication to his craft and ever-evolving style. Following huge commercial success with records such as ‘My Love’ (featuring Jess Glynne) and underground anthem ‘House & Pressure’ on Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations, this new three-track EP shows Route 94 returning to his club roots by exploring minimalist influences. Steeped in dark, bass-led energy, the triptych of melodic and atmospheric cuts makes a blissful re-introduction to Route 94’s sound. Opening the release with the rolling title track ‘Close’, it transitions into the hazier ‘Harder’ with its rubbery, squelching bassline, finally the intergalactic goodness of ‘Feels’ rounds off the release. The otherworldly sounds of this sublime EP illustrate the emotive powers of carefully crafted club records, with all three tracks on this EP destined to do far more than just fill the floor.
