Check the comments to see what Marc Houle and Click Box had to say about the production process of the Razzamatazz EP!

Items & Things return with a five track EP from label heavyweights Marc Houle and Click Box, to be released on both physical and digital formats on September 20th. Recorded this Spring in Sao Paulo, who better to describe the release than the trio themselves:

Marc Houle: “Besides being really great guys, Click Box are also really good musicians - not just as techno producers, but producers of other styles of music as well: they've made music for television, radio and also produced a few bands. So I knew that when I had some free time in Sao Paulo this spring, we were going to be able to record a whole EP because they work almost as quickly as I do. Our approach was to do everything quickly while having fun and not spending time on small details or the arrangement until after the session. We wanted each track to be slightly different but have the same overall feeling. I spent most of the time in front of their Juno-60 and Marco was on some modular thing and a Moog. Pedro was engineering and doing the drum parts. We were having so much fun yelling ideas at each other and recording pretty much non-stop. The great thing about the project was the balance of us having a super fun time with how seriously we take music.”

Click Box: “We had spent a great week with Marc and decided to work on an EP together. Earlier that day, we hung out, did some laundry, drove through the city looking for tacos and also for the exposed electrical wires in the streets of São Paulo before going in the studio. It was really fun, due mainly in part to the fact that we didn't set any guidelines for ourselves. We just made music for pleasure with no pressure. With the tracks on the EP, we feel that you can hear a little bit of all three of us: fat groves, hypnotic synths, and funky bass-lines, all within a light context. Music for dancing, not thinking – music to have some fun with!”

One for the people, since you showed some interest in our classics series (#01 sold out in no time) and there seems to be a pretty big demand for this one. It's been out of print for nearly a decade - fetching out of the ordinary prices on Discogs - so we thought it would make a nice early x-mas gesture (oh man did we really just say that??) to make it easy for all you cats born after 1987 to lay your hands on this gem.
So this is the moment we comment on the music I suppose... We'll let's not. This is a classic in the truest sense of the word, not just because its old, but yeah boy, because it's fakkin great, that's what!

Available in all good stores around mid december.

TURBO 108
AZARI & III
MANIC
 
On August 2nd, Azari & III drop their new single, 'Manic': a perfectly sculpted piece of dystopian-house-pop taken from their highly anticipated debut album.
 
The Torontonian quartet, consisting of producer/musicians Dinamo Azari and Alixander III with vocalists Fritz Helder and Starving Yet Full, have crafted a distinctive sound that references the best of dance music's past with a firm vision of it's future. With 'Manic', Azari & III mix slick modern production with retro vibes, and incredibly catchy vocal hooks with dark lyrics, striking a balance that has earned them critical acclaim and a cult following.
 
This limited Turbo 12" includes remixes from red-hot Crosstown Rebels star Maceo Plex, the legendary house-cat DJ Sneak, and breakthrough Spanish sensation Borderline, with Australia'sFinger Prince adding yet another bomb to the digital package.

This summer, Azari & III have taken their charismatic and high-energy live show on the road with a plethora festival dates across Europe including Glastonbury, Lovebox, Melt & Sonar to name a few. UK fans can look forward to their record launch at London's XOYO on August 11th. The album will be released on Modular in Australia, and Loose Lips in Europe and the UK on August 8th.

Slowburn - Lotus EP

A1 - Lotus
A2 - Get To It

B1 - Oriental Express
B2 - Rise

Dublin based duo, Dave Hargadon & Phil Long aka Slowburn make their debut on Lunar Disko Records with four machine-driven house and techno jams. 

Fusing the percussive sounds of Chicago & Detroit with their trademark analogue soundscapes, Slowburn once again push deeper into the realms of house and techno with their third full EP, crafted somewhere between the Black Pitts and Contae Sligeach.

Slow-rising cuts demonstrating precision drum programming, delicate chords and pads, alongside some acute arrangement, make for another outstanding EP from two fast-rising Irish producers.

Lotus, Is It?
