Latest Gobstopper signee rAHHH follows fellow newcomer Orlando into Mr. Mitch’s blossoming network of inspired new skool club producers with his debut EP, ‘Ones’. 

Having already found favour with Ryan Hemsworth on OVO Radio, rAHHH also collaborated with Lorenzo BITW on ’27’ — a track released by Branko’s Enchufada label earlier this summer — but the bright and bubbly ‘Ones’ serves as his debut record proper. 

Myriad influences run true right across the five-track EP, with sugary-sweet opener ‘Dog Days’ an ode to glossy, futuristic electro-pop, title-track ‘Ones’ tapping into percussive, sweetboy RnB and luxurious, dancehall-inflected ‘Lexus Riddim’ zeroing in on the last days of summer. 

A testament to Mr. Mitch’s ever-evolving vision for the label that is, now in its seventh year, rAHHH’s ‘Ones’ offers a fascinating look inside the mind of another Gobstopper producer starlet.

Durban’s 23 year-old producer Emo Kid has announced he is to release eight-track debut EP, ‘Gqomtera’, through Gqom Oh! on October 27th.

Although titled ‘Gqomtera’, which Emo Kid explains is a slang term he and others use for the music, the record actually explores Sgubhu — another strain of South African dance music that shares many stylistic parallels with Gqom, though is always written with a 4x4 beat. Like DJ Lag before him, an artist widely considered the king of Gqom, Emo Kid is also considered a pioneer in Durban; “Some people call me the Sgubhu king, but I'm just happy they're enjoying my music”, he says.

Based in Inanda, in the Etafuleni area township in Durban, Emo Kid’s house looks out over an area called Isandlwana — the spot where the Zulu army famously defeated the British Army in the Battle Of Isandlwana in 1879. It is from this backdrop that he has written the majority of his music over the last few years, including new record ‘Gqomtera’. He has also spent time producing for well-established South African artists like DJ Tira, a DJ who has been tipped to win an upcoming Red Bull Culture Clash in Durban.

At eight tracks long, ‘Gqomtera’ provides a comprehensive overview of the Sgubhu sound, with the aim of taking the listener on their own ‘Durban Journey’. “I wanted to show the uniqueness of my own style which I would describe as more musical”, Emo Kid explains, “you can feel the music when you listen but it still hits hard with that Gqom flavour.”

That Gqom flavour, powered by hard, fast, uncompromising drums, provides a solid core from which everything else functions. Bright, shimmering trance synths feature on ‘Futuristic Gqom’, while on ‘Enkwarini’ — “another word for a party or fantastic get together” — vocalist Fawell skips over light, playful Sgubhu rhythms. There’s also space for harder, deeper cuts like ‘Ground Shaker’, cut with a twinkling melody line, the charging pace and power of ‘Insimbi Yase Dubane’ and the anthemic ‘Asbambeki’ featuring local crew TLC Fam, translating loosely to being unstoppable; “It means you can’t catch us basically”, Emo Kid says proudly, “On the dance floor, you can’t touch us, we’re on fire.”

Capturing the raw, street sounds of his city, Emo Kid is the latest Durban artist to take the music global and with ‘Gqomtera’, put Sgubhu firmly on the map.

Following a double dose of newfound Los Angeles talent, Apron Records founder, Steven Julien (aka Funkineven) returns home with the debut release from London-based enigma, Molinaro.

APRON 35 is classic Apron Records material; five slabs of soul-drenched techno anchored by groove and grit from a new name with plenty of experience. Molinaro — who has honed his production and DJing craft for over a decade — is one of the capital's best technicians behind the decks. A skill most recently recognised by NTS Radio, who rewarded him with a regular monthly slot on the airwaves. The first of which shot straight into the NTS Picks for the week.

Opener "GIO" cements the tone from the off, drifting in with warm, enveloping pads, quickly joined by beefy drums and percussion in a five-minute sprawl out. "JTL" is arguably the standout; a boogie-influenced roller aimed at prime time dancefloor. "TY" and "MOLOW" showcase the deeper, moodier face of Molinaro's sound palette before the beatless “SOFAR" rounds things out, paying homage to Ryuichi Sakamoto's synth brilliance.

Apron EP lands in November 23rd 2017..

Producer Victor “Ticklah” Axelrod is back with another supple Reggae delight. After the success of The Inversions' last collaboration with Bob & Gene, Axelrod once again takes a seat in the Producer’s chair, this time with a tune a little deeper in the catalogue. Originally tweezed from the beautiful MO DO tape boondoggle, back in ‘05 - ‘06, this single has been a long-time favorite of the Daptone family.

One night in 1971, frustrated by their lack of the success, Bobby Nunn and Gene Coplin sat in the basement of 50 Orange Street and put together a record expressing said frustration. Equipped with only a guitar, bass, and piano - no drums (though you don’t even notice) - the two crafted an immaculate slice of Soul, aptly titled “It’s Not What You Know (It’s Who You Know)”. Fast forward 46 years, and now accompanied by the rocksteady rhythms of The Inversions - the vocal stylings and poignant lyrics are reborn, sounding as fresh today as it did when it was crafted down in that magical basement. The VERSION flip is a delay laden masterpiece produced and arranged by Axelrod. A must for fans of Dub and Reggae alike. A truly gorgeous record!
