Bristol Producer, Boulderhead gives us a taste of his take on minimal, spacey breakbeat rhythms. His ‘Expander’ EP brings on a cosmic journey through bassline melodies and an immense explosion of hypnotic drum patterns and sky-fi textures.

Boulderhead has a unique way of blending new production techniques alongside creative patterns & sounds from playing around with a variety of synths and effects.

Also, what a treat. The track ‘Module Upgrade’ from the EP has been graced with two-fire, first-class remixes that will fully immerse you into all of the energetic flows these tunes have to offer. Huge thank you to Conna Haraway and Enxerto aka Vitor Munhoz for hopping on the remix duties.

Last but not least, we are absolutely delighted to have Boulderhead release this fiery, magnetic EP on Yellow Island Records.

Northern Ireland's Optmst will release a new track via a compilation on Berlin-based Wex Records' sub-label Day By Day next week. Hear the urgent percussion and layered textures on 'Lately' now

Premiere: Optmst 'Lately'

To celebrate Too Rough 4 Radio dishing out raw bangers for 5 years, they have gathered together 30 tracks from their heavy hitting roster along with special guests from around the globe. Ushering in their heavy-hitting TR4R alumni like Tommy Vicari Jnr, Hany, Florian, to name a few, the compilation covers all grounds of house, breaks, electro, techno and rave hysteria. From Salomo & Reece Walker's electro opener to Slim Steve's hazy techno house hybrid to Nørus & Dj Whipr Snipr's high octane stepper, all the way to Øall Håtes' closing acid thumper, the compilation is a testament to the breadth of TR4R's eclectic and club leaning chunes over the years.

All donations during the pre-order will go to the initiative #LeaveNoOneBehind of the non-profit association Civilfleet-Support e.V.

Ocean Stirs - Nocturnal

It started, as it so often does, with two old friends hanging out. 

John Shima and C P Smith were joking around one evening in their home city of Sheffield. At some point, Smith challenged Shima that, if the latter could produce a record using nothing more than a small modular synth setup, then Smith would release it on his Central Processing Unit label. As heads will know, while Shima has drops on imprints like FireScope and Subwax Excursions to his name, he had never previously released anything via CPU. Shima accepted, and thus we now have his CPU debut, the four-track EP CPU Modular 1.

The specific setup that Shima worked with for these tracks was Smith’s Doepfer A-100P6 Suitcase, a small but mighty combination of modules and programmers. It’s no surprise that Shima was able to familiarise himself with the equipment in double-quick time - after all, Shima was an early adopter of the Eurorack modular format back in the day. What emerged from the CPU Modular 1 sessions was a quartet of devastatingly effective DJ tools, mid-set rollers which will get the dance moving something crazy.

Opener ‘003’ kicks the EP off as it means to go on. There’s something at once stiff-necked and buoyant about the rhythms here, all thwacking Roland tones and snares which crack like someone whipping a length of sheet metal. While the beat barrels unyieldingly onwards, the programming in the tuned modulars is more exploratory and even trippy, full of delay-laced bleeps and flighty rhythmic motifs. It comes together for a cracking mix in the vein of artists like Jerome Hill and London Modular Alliance. Second A-side cut ‘010’ is no different, the street-beat groove and grumbling low-ends underpinning all manner of modular wizardry.

CPU Modular 1 is really timeless stuff, a set of percussion-heavy, future-focussed beats which recalls Smith’s own CPU drop ‘DJ Tools Vol.1 - 808 Tracks’. ‘011’ kicks of CPU Modular 1’s second-half with a dose of Drexciyan dystopia, playing an atonal loop off of an insistent bass wiggle and neurotic hi-hats. Even when Shima tightens or slackens the modulars here, ‘011’ remains unyielding, a dose of pure ‘Wip3out’ energy that you could happily groove to all day long. The EP closes out with ‘005’, a gnarled, gurgling production which still retains the dancefloor punch of the rest of the record.

For his Central Processing Unit debut, John Shima was tasked to produce four tracks using a single small modular setup. Unsurprisingly given the pedigree of this seasoned machine-funk pro, Shima aced the assignment.

Samuel van Dijk releases his third album as VC-118A on Delsin Records. It dives deep into the sonic narrative of VC-118A —who is also known as Mohlao— and mixes up his unique sounds with evocative musical imagery. An album that goes from sparse, mysterious grooves to shiny underwater electro to frazzled and distorted techno via absorbing passages of ambient and overdriven machine workouts.

"00:AM are back with their third Various Artists 12” in as many years featuring
friends from near and far. D. Tiffany, AceMo, Flørist, and Max Wyatt step into
the fold for a well rounded release fit to stay in the DJ bag.
The record starts with D. Tiffany’s off-kilter ‘Butterfly Foundation’ into AceMo’s
10 miles deep ‘A Dub 2 Toronto’, onto Flørist’s peak time ode-to-jack
‘Parametric’, and closes out with Max Wyatt’s breaky & euphoric ‘Nu World’.
Road tested thoroughly over the last year, 003 is a gambit of refreshing
productions carefully selected by 00:AM. We hope you enjoy."
