Jungle

Following on from Luca Lozano's recently super sold out 'Junglish Massive' tape cassette mix comes the first in a new sub-division from the Klasse Wrecks family. Ruf Kutz' owner Ruf Dug and Klasse label owner Lozano throw up two tracks each, Lozano taking a slower 150bpm approach to some classic Jungle riddims whilst Ruffy contributes some timeless jump-up with live saxophone for authentic flavour.

a the sentiment

https://soundcloud.com/morganwright is a producer from Melbourne. His work places emphasis on introspection as it functions both on and off the dance floor. Wright bends sound around familiar club tropes to evoke an emotive response in the listener. The interplay of aggression and emotion, especially apparent in his live set, hints at a thread between his debut solo 12' and his time as a member of established
Australian hardcore band Imprisoned. Coburg features a flipside remix from DJ Zozi aka D. Tiffany (Planet Euphorique, Pacific Rhythm).

Fantastic Twins - Lost In Germany EP

A1) Why Are You Here? - 8.04
A2) Wrong Place Wrong Time Wrong People - 8.15

B1) Fur Stunden Lang - 7.42

The fourth AF Trax release is a three track EP from our long time ally The Fantastic Twins, who has the following to say about her EP - 

This EP is a small collection of works I crafted over the past couple of years in the process of working on my live show. I have been performing versions of these tracks countless times and yet never played them twice the same way. To me, they have been material in constant motion, so shaping them into a “finished” form was a risky challenge. Something I was also wary of - would it mean they would become set in stone? Would it mean I’d have to somehow “rationalise" the music - via the mind - as opposed to letting it run into the wildness of its physical live experiences? 

Whilst editing these tracks into a format that could be released, I realised that instead of shaping them into the mould my mind first intended to give them, I could in fact use the power they revealed each time I performed them to an audience and inject some of that energy - as much as it is possible to capture and recreate it in the studio - back into this EP. Then of course, it meant letting go on things I usually like to control more, and better. 

But isn’t it the power of music to let it take you where you didn’t plan to go? And how incomplete would the music be if our inspiration didn’t feed off the collective experience of dancing to music together? I’ve lost myself (and my twins) many times throughout the process - not only on German soil - I have sometimes landed in the wrong place, but I may have found one answer yet in the form of another question. Why are we here if we can’t dance?

That reminds me of the words of Pina Bausch “Dance, dance or we are lost”. Lost in our internal struggles as individuals (or imaginary twins). Lost in a society where our relation to the other is often marked by fear, power or violence. We feel the need to resist. Yet nowadays, taking a political stance as an artist is too often being instrumentalised as another tactics or accessory to gather more popularity, reducing the political message to nothing else but a branding attempt. Isn’t it anyway the power of capitalism to assimilate everything, even contradictory or once-upon-a-time subversive voices? All to end up on a “Rave” or “Feminist” H&M t-shirt. Slogans that have been emptied of their initial force and substance, now replaced by their commercial value. I strongly doubt that more empty words poured in vain on social media will help us much. But, like Pina Bausch, like JD Twitch, I have always firmly believed in dancing as a physical, social and fundamental act that leads us to share a common space with others and embrace otherness. Standing together, dancing together when everything else forces us to divide. 

May the music on this EP be, I hope, a possible answer to its own title.

ARKAJO 2: Dorisburg & Arkajo - Void Pyramid - A

Mumiy Troll are one of the most influential indie-art bands in Russia and helped shape the music scene in the post-Soviet state with their 1996 album ‘Morskaya’, inspiring a whole generation of musicians. In 2018 the band released a new album which featured the standout track ‘Jimolost’ which now, in collaboration with Kito Jempere, gets six different remixes.First up is Kito Jempere's Band Revision. Jempere has been making music for more than a decade and is a talented multi-instrumentalist, DJ and producer. He has been involved in a number of bands from punk rock to electronic to acid jazz and makes music under many different aliases from DJ Kirill Sergeew to The Saint Petersburg Disco Spin Club. He has been extremely selective with his remix work in the past, only taking on rare and interesting projects with previous re-workings for the likes of Red Snapper, Mujuice and SBP4. Here he brings the talents of his full band to bear with an inventive version that is awash with blissful chords and splashing hits while the aloof vocal adds to the horizontal effect of the Balearic grooves.KTO DJ? is another Russian legend who brought drum'n'bass culture to Russia in the Nineties as DJ Boomer and had a huge influence on club culture with the opening of 1-2-3 clubs. He also performed as KTO DJ? at the Olympic Games 2014 Closing Event. Here he goes for a techno version that is littered with acid twitches, dark vocals and frazzled synths that never let up. Amsterdam based deep house artist Nachtbraker delivers a superb ‘Lullaby’ version that is silky and smooth. His infectious rubbery drums and dreamy pads are underpinned by shuffling, garage-flecked rhythms to make for something beautifully weightless yet dynamic.Bonfire Records artists Schier supply an indie-dance version that is melancholic and tender, with lingering, pained chords and heartfelt vocals that will make for a perfectly moving and uplifting moment on the floor. Belgium’s finest buzzsaw synth and distorted drum lovers Raveyards then step into trance/techno territory with their shiny metallic rework featuring twisted and turning synths and stomping drums never let up. Finally there is a closing trip-hop remix from Greek artist Moderator that is perfectly loose and organic, with live sounding drums and big hits tumbling from above.This is a fantastically diverse package of electronic music of many different colours and contours.
