Let the beat control your body

Matthew Dexter DJ / PRODUCER / PROMOTER based in Lugano is up next on Animals On Psychedelics with a 3 three track ep, & on visuals we welcomed back warpque to tie it all together.

AOP008 - Matthew Dexter - Uplink EP

29.12 progressive trance

008 Earl Grey

DJ Earl Grey aka Nik Thorup takes us beyond the dancefloor and into the realm of the cerebral. During his month-long residency at Waxflower, Nik spun a cornucopia of captivating and unique records that always left us hungry for more.

We’re still not sure how Nik managed to intertwine so many polarising genres so effortlessly. Few DJs can stroll from ambient to jazz, from folk to dub, making it sound so organic. Maybe there’s a link to be drawn between this kind of musical curation and some of the more adventurous wine-making processes we’ve come to love at Waxflower. Skin-contact wine often leads to bolder, more intense, and less predictable palates. 

Shady wine-making comparisons aside, it was an honour for us to have Nik play for the whole month. We’ve spent plenty of time listening to his recorded sets, so it was a treat to experience his talent live at Waxflower.

Heeeere weee gooo. A little blast from the past. Starting off with slow and sexy swings and quickly upping the tempo to move ya hamstrings. Raphaël Top Secret played an all too sweet set at Post Bar in February 2019 (when most people woulda laughed at the idea of a pandemic hitting in a year, hah). And it’s all on tape. Hit it.

The results are often impressive when new collaborations challenge and encourage artists to push one another. But when you add in an extra element, true friendship, things are taken to another level.

Enter Up The Stuss head honcho Chris Stussy and fellow Dutch Wonderkid Locklead, as the pair unveil their brand-new project - across boundaries.

Revealing a selection of productions shaped and created together across the past eighteen months, their debut under the alias is an exemplary display of their individual styles flowing effortlessly around one another - bringing those signature sounds you’ve come to know and love within an entirely new dynamic.

The package comes loaded with four cuts drawing from minimal, electro and house spheres spread across another trademark wax for vinyl lovers, with two scintillating cuts available strictly as digital bonuses. As Stussy jokes, it’s like ‘Christmas during summer’, and the gifts are incoming.

"@charlou-g is the solo alias of a French producer who here takes charge of the fourth fantastic outing from Flight Mode. He opens up in thumping fashion with 'Death Hypnosis' which has synths fired from a gun like laser rays and throwback acid bass. 'Sacrilege' is even more hard-assed with further retro sci-fi signifiers over hulking great kicks. 'Passive Power' brings more teeth-clenching retro-future techno sounds shot through with synth electricity and the EP highlight comes at the last with 'Crashed On The Space Road' setting off at high speed through the stars and never letting up."

Pre-order Vinyl & Digital: https://onrotation.bandcamp.com/album/overgrown-echos

Australian live hardware-based duo Hybrid Man join On Rotation for a 4 track EP - ‘Overgrown Echos’ exploring their signature dreamy acid-tinged sound. 

Fusing dub-style mixing and effects with technical finesse, their complex blend of sonic ingredients draw from ambient soundscapes, IDM, 90s trance, dubbed-out house, techno and more. Sprinkled amoungst the immersive grooves, left-field sonic artifacts, environmental recordings and live improvised melodies provide filigree sonic detail, with each subsequent listen revealing new layers.

Hybrid Man are a special live act to witness and have already released some incredible records on Butter Sessions, Paper-Cuts & Wax'o Paradiso. 

On Rotation is a Leeds based label, event & mix series run by Chris I’Anson, Lisene & Adam Pits. Artwork illustrated and designed by Patch D Keyes.

Through their music curation work at One Eye Witness, co-founder Hylke has been silently influencing the sounds that resonate in clubs and underground dance music record collections around the world.

His newly created label Spectral Bounce takes it one step deeper, providing a platform for music imbued with eerie grooves and subtly expressive energy, capturing the listener right at their core.

SPEC01 - Force of Nature - Is the fruit of the long-standing musical relationship and shared visions of producer and Selector RDS (@0rds0) and Spectral Bounce, the perfect catalogue opener.

Over four moody club-ready tracks, RDS dives into the sound of the after-hours, where minds are freed and darker energies are expressed. Both sides display perfectly controlled acid synthesis, heart-grabbing bass lines, cut-through drum sampling and an extremely textured and gritty mix. RDS' musical influences are clearly felt, harmoniously fusing UK 90s bleep techno, spacey tech house and dub with his own emotional perspective to club music.

The Dutch producer's distinct dance floor sound is here captured in its essence, processed through his expressive electronic machines while controlling tempo and energy in a unique manner. This EP is a sonic statement, offering the listener the Spectral Bounce sound.
