Rushing us headlong into a vorticist maelstrom of hard-edged drum stutter and polychromatic synth fragmentation, Sansibar sophomore long-player for Kalahari Oyster Cult - “Sans Musique” - tackles the very essence of post-trancey, breaks-loaded UK blends with unabashed joy to wreak havoc on his path. Throughout seven tracks oozing burnt kerosene and depleted uranium residue merged with a hint of sacred incense, Sansibar deploys his extra-wide vision for the present and future of dance music.

“Scully” attacks pedal to the metal, hi-intensity bass onslaughts and knee-buckling breaks roaring as the groove slings us at bullet-speed into a hot, narrow barrel of floor-focused aggression. 

Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, Sansibar is a non-pareil cosmic traveller - also producer, resident DJ at Kaiku and Post Bar and wave agitator on IDA Radio and EOS Radio - whose genre-unbound sound credentials for the likes of Kalahari Oyster Cult, Natural Sciences, Émotsiya, Darknet, Avoidance et al. have helped establish as one of today’s most intriguing talents in the European scene.

'Geodesis' is out now'. 
Interdépendence EP out 6th July.
Get it here: https://smarturl.it/onloop014

Moxie’s On Loop label is back with a new release from Eternal Ocean label founder Ronan. The new EP,Interdépendence, follows on from his highly acclaimed debut album ‘Reflections On Intrinsic Value’ and further contributions to labels such as Pressure Dome, Vanity Press and Jungle Gym. Ronan’s productions are described as ‘aquatic sounds for healing’ and this release for On Loop is no different. Very much driven by percussion, the EP opens with a trippy dub-infused ‘Sudor De Alma’, whilst the second track ‘Interdependence’ showcases a more emotionally driven production, filled with blissful, ethereal pads and hypnotic vocal samples. It’s a moment of reflection before picking things up again on ‘Geodesis’ where excitable drum patterns lead the way, bringing you to the centre of the dancefloor. ‘Morning Glory’ rounds off the EP in glistening style - the perfect sunrise anthem.

Sounds from another universe, let me take you deeper into Squamata, where I was born...

Taken from the album 'Return To Planet X'trapolis' out now on LKR Records

I had a lot of fun putting this track together over quite a long time, working in the triplet grid this track can be played perfectly in sync with either 100bpm or 150bpm tracks. The main break and some of the kick drums were created from one of my favourite ever natural sounds: the sound of a frozen lake thawing and snapping in spring time.. There are some other found sounds in there as well but it was also the first time I was able to use the clone of my favourite synths of all time the Syncussion Sy-1m.

Pictures like the one attached that belong to the 'Journal Of Experimental Biology' (https://jeb.biologists.org/) as well as BBC's ©Paul D. Stewart have been used as a huge source of inspiration along the way whilst writing the Album. I thought i'd share some of these as for this particular track they I feel they're a perfect match for the sound.

Enjoy!

Midheaven Records launches in 2021 with 'Force Majeure', the debut EP of Sydney/Eora-based amuwa (@a-m-u-w-a), aka 25-year-old Joshua Deering. Born and raised in the urban sprawl of Sydney CBD, Deering now brings 10 years of musical development to a head, where design and feel seamlessly enmesh. The EP draws from formative experiences immersed in the sounds of city noise, industrial zones, natural amphitheatres, and packed dance-floors. Familiar strains of electro, trance and bass music shift and meld into new, hybrid forms, driven by a synthetic-organic logic. Roiling subs and propulsive drums are engineered for impact, couched within mutating synth arrays. Untraceable oddities click, whirr and hum around the stereo field—subtle changes reward repeat, deep listening. Over four tracks, amuwa re-centres the whole body as listening technology—pursuing a trance-state that is grounded in the dance, not just for the head(s). This is a formidable debut.
