Toma Kami returns to Livity Sound for a third EP of provocative, experimental club gear. At the helm of his own Man Band label the French producer continues to explore a hybridised style which favours fractured beats, playful samples and occasional psychedelic flourishes.

Compared to the busier sound of previous releases, minimalism informs Toma’s approach on LIVITY053 as he sits his crunchy drums and weighty low-end in a tangibly spacious mix on ‘Amapicante’. Even within a stripped-down context, his unique approach shines through as ‘Later To The Bone’ progressively ramps up in scratched and scuffed sonic interference and ‘Mzecal’ trips over its own fragmented found-sound drum formations.

Livity Sound is a label set up by Peverelist in 2011 as a vehicle for a raw and exploratory strain of UK techno, rooted in the heritage of UK dance music and sound system culture. It has since become one of the UK's foremost protagonists for cutting edge underground electronic music.

Mutable Mercury - Vexation

They gathered at night beneath the cloak of darkness - they nestled themselves amongst a network of tunnels and lurked beneath bridges. For they were the triads, the rogue ones in a city so neat and polished.

Soon they would venture out into the suburbs to cause mischief and reap the rewards of their magnificent criminal empire. They were the real kings of this town - not those in the ivory tower blocks and the skyscrapers which illuminated the fog hanging thick above in the distance.

This was another world entirely..

Eclipse Tribez ready a new compilation of club driven heat, spotlighting an array of talented up and coming producers. This Debba track is sun kissed and rhythmic, ready for the festival circuit and destined for those perkier, melodic sets with a percussive twist.

PREMIERE: Debba - Triads [Eclipse Tribez]

Kincaid returns to Control Freak for a main label release with the Sugar EP - 4 sac- charine, club-ready weapons from a producer at the top of his game.

Drawing on an array of club sounds from trance to UK garage and the best in con- temporary leftfield techno, the EP marks our most rave-ready statement yet, with percussive drum tracks and soaring euphoric pads - carefully crafted for dark rooms and packed dancefloors.

On the A-Side, Air-ism and Sugar bubble with peak time energy - a pair of secret weapons which haven’t left our record bags for months now. B1 E is a pounding, energetic 4x4 pumper, whilst Sycamore closes things out with moody, shuffling drums and powerful low end pressure.

Dual Monitor - Fractal Submission (clip) OUT NOW ON N-FACE RECORDS

Our third vinyl sees us joining forces with another familiar face from the Out of Sorts catalogue and firm favourite from our debut VA back in 2021.

In our first venture firmly into the realm of techno, and Dyslecta’s first body of work on wax, he lays down four slabs of rugged, grinding grooves as he continues to forge an instantly identifiable sonic DNA.

With influences from the early Swamp sound, 2000s hard groove and classic tech house, this one pulls out all the stops for an all out heads down club extravaganza. 

Available from 19th August, with a super exclusive run of 100 vinyl, available on bandcamp and in a select few exclusive record stores.  We expect these to sell out so don't hang around if you wanna grab a slab of the wax!

@awo_ojiji debuts on Control Freak for the long awaited return of our White Label series with his ‘Solidify EP’ - four percussive, wonky & propulsive club cuts, complete with a remix from label heads Customer Service & Finnaman.

Based out of Graz, Austria, Awo Ojiji has been quietly carving out his own lane in the leftfield techno & bass music world. Distinct, detailed and fundamentally genre-fluid, his oddball productions cross a range of stylistic influences and tempos, purpose built for the explorative DJ.

Early support on this one from Laksa, re:ni, Gramrcy & more - very limited pressing of just 300 hand-stamped records - don’t miss your chance to grab one.

Awo Ojiji - What A Mess

Aussie producer Lithe makes his Meld debut – delivering a 5-track EP firmly in the camp of leftfield bass and UK techno. Complex rhythms, tasteful transitions, and bass as punchy as you like fill the EP to the brim with dancefloor tools to make bodies move.

According to the situation, there are times when you must rely on a person for something or other. If this is done repeatedly, it becomes a matter of importuning that person and can be rather rude. If there is something that must be done, it is better not to rely on others. (Yamamoto Tsunetomo - Hagakure: Book Of The Samurai)
