Releasing Friday July 29th, we are extremely excited to announce another Redstone Press debut in the form of Glasgow local LWS. Lewis Williamson is at the stepping off point of a soon-to-be prolific production career, having drawn early support from the likes of Ben UFO , Elena Colombi and Surgeon to name a small few for releases past and forthcoming.

LWS has been working hard the last couple of years crafting a signature sound via his excellent label Matrice Records (https://matricerecordings.bandcamp.com/) and a previous release on Eyeangle Records. Aerosol firmly cements him as a producer to keep two ears and eyes on and each track is a perfect example of his skill on the dials and breadth of creative talent! 

Limited press of 100 records. Don't sleep!

RED005 LWS - Aerosol EP (RED005)

The city lights flashed by in a blur of colours, their reflection painting shapes on the windows. Lost souls and sober faces rubbed shoulders, forced smiles and vacant eyes met across the carriage. One journey was different to the next, but here everyone was bundled together trying to find their way somewhere unknown. Where were they headed? Where had they been? Each had a name, each had a story to tell, each had fears and desires that bubbled below...

Brighton-based producer WDDS has an elegant yet straightforward take on jungle, DnB and breaks. Recently he's contributed to a compilation on Dublin label Woozy, while on his own imprint he's been churning out a series of floaty, atmospheric singles that fill you to the brim with nostalgia. The next is 'Subway', which began as a voyage into melodic breaks but took a turn into no-nonsense jungle territory as part of WDDS' live set. It might be more of a heavy hitter than his previous outing but it still retains that inherent dreaminess we've come to associate with his music.

PREMIERE: WDDS - Subway (Jungle Mix)

Waves rippled gently on the shore, glistening like a million diamonds under the hot sun. The best way to see the coastline was by boat, there was so much hidden from those who only explored the area on dry land. They missed all the secret gems the water had to offer; the coves that glittered with golden sands and the old caves that led to secluded sparkling pools to dip your toes in. Out here on the ocean, there was so much to take in but it was only those who took the risk that would reap the rewards...

A new year, a new label: Berlin DJ and producer Acidfinky launches her Twisting Knobs imprint into the world with a VA release featuring music from three artists and herself. Dubbed as music "for travelling in space", the dreamy sounds on offer come courtesy of Guava, rayne and Leipzig-based producer bavedacon who's behind our pick. Marking the drummer, DJ and radio host's first electronic music release, 'tretboot' sees him exploring a softer, more meditative side of electro with lush pads, squelchy acid lines and crisp percussion.

All profits from the release will be donated to 'Women Life Freedom', a Berlin-based collective who are working to highlight and support the voices of the feminist uprising in Iran.

PREMIERE: bavedacon - tretboot [Twisting Knobs]

Skins continues forging his own path with a new label celebrating the uplifting and futuristic sounds of jungle, with a four-tracker featuring tracks with early support from DJs at the leading edge of the new wave of jungle such as Tañ, Mixtress and Frazer Ray through to revered names like Paul Rhodes of 2 Bad Mice.

Whilst some will know Skins from his run of self-released white label techno EPs or 2021’s underground hit 24 Hour Dub, more recently he has turned his attention back to the music which made him fall in love with it all in the first place:

“I vividly remember the effect that the futuristic sounds of 90s jungle and drum ‘n’ bass had on me as a kid, hearing snippets of tracks in video games and later stumbling across artists like Alaska, Future Engineers, Seba, Peshay and LTJ Bukem. After years engrossing myself in the cavernous spaces of dub techno, this record feels like a return to my roots, bringing my style into a new arena which still feels like home. The label will serve as an outlet for this and future collaborations with like-minded producers.”

Route R is the second track from the forthcoming inaugural release on Skins’ new project Sauce Direct Records. The label is set to draw from the sounds and energy of classic jungle, with an emphasis on colour, excitement and most importantly, fun.

The track opens with a pulsing, sparse and echo-laden drum pattern, which slowly fills out and is joined by an arpeggiated synth line pulling us along to the breakbeat section. From here we travel deeper, driven forwards by a powerful undulating bassline, until we are greeted by uplifting pads and layers of rich, emotionally charged harmonies.

After a brief moment lost in space, we are plunged back into the bass and breakbeat groove for a few more minutes of heads-down action, before a familiar synthesiser line brings us back home, from which we set off, but somehow different…

Premiere | Suh+Moon - Apostolos (ROW015)

Following the final release of his three-part series ‘Order’, ‘Chaos’, and ‘Balance’, Bon-Psy has united the projects together into a forthcoming album, set to also feature remixes from a handful of talented producers in the Electronica space.

This second remix comes from ‘Nuage’, a respected producer with multiple releases on Anjunadeep and Phonica Records who leans into delicate and emotive electronic fusions of forward-thinking House and 2-step / Future Garage styles. Here, he transforms the melancholy and subtle approach of the original into an infectious club banger that is as catchy as it is danceable.

Kinetic low end provides the club energy while he tastefully repurposes the vocals with a scattergun effect to hit in and out over a swathe of soft synth swells and chords. The resulting piece draws similarities to the likes of Four Tet, Floating Points, and Caribou’s dance output with its blend of leftfield styles mixed with club rhythms.

Nuage is a name many of the heads already know with notable support from RinseFM, KissFM, FIP, Majestic Casual, and Mr SuicideSheep. Across DSPs he is known just as well and has been a mainstay of a variety of electronica playlists on AppleMusic, Spotify, and AmazonMusic.


Meanwhile Bon-Psy has also received notable support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music , Bandcamp Weekly, and a plethora of streaming editorial playlists including Genre Glitch, Fresh Finds Experimental (Spotify), New In Electronic (Apple Music), Reverie (Tidal) and Brand New UK (Deezer).

Collectively it’s a great artistic match and the track looks set to hit the dancefloors strong with early tastemakers already unleashing it to great effect.
