Folks, grab a seat because mother is back! Well, technically Violet’s just released a whole album on naivety - go check it out btw - but this will be her first naive solo EP since “Togetherness” exploded and became the ubiquitous dancefloor track we all know and love. 

On “Espírito” she leaves behind any trace of contemplative jungle and house hybridification to concoct a commanding blend of leftfield Detroit techno sonics and dramatic NYC tribal house. The A-side is a perfect example of this fiery marriage of Sound Factory hard-house beats and glass-like pointillisms that evoke Terrence Dixon and other Midwest experimentalists. 

On the flip side, “Psyche” is a more abstract and somewhat intimate juxtaposition of nervous energy, off-kilter breakbeats and wide-eyed futuristic optimism; a bit as if The Black Dog released their first demos on Cómeme in 2015. 

On the remix we have none other than the Motherbeat founder, High Priestess of the decks and naive royalty Eris Drew, who takes the celestial clouds of spiritual Love from the original and layers them over slick but super-satisfyingly complex beats and textures, exploding into moments of pure lightness and sisterly dancefloor expansion.

This compilation bands together Post Bar residents and frequent guests during these times of social distancing. The situation is especially difficult for artists and clubs alike, with everything on hold until further notice, which means there is no income. If you’d like to help support Post Bar and our extended family of artists, you can do so by buying tracks from this album or the entire thing for that matter ツ

Martyn & Om Unit - Tracksuit Dub [3024]

One of Bradley Zero’s latest mentees, Dayspired is a young audio-visual duo hailing from Boston. The group has already collaborated with an eclectic range of artists, including bassist Hash Vyas (of the acclaimed Thievery Corporation), jazz saxophonist Stephon Alexander, and vocalist Harrison Lipton, as well as remixed songs from the likes of Haulm and GoGo Penguin. Previous releases have received support from tastemakers around the globe, including the Apple Music editorial team, Indie Shuffle, Stereofox and Nest HQ. The duo has released music independently and through various imprints — Eton Messy Records, Grand Jury Music, and Dusted Wax Kingdom.

We premiere, “Sometimes You Don’t Sleep”, a poignant, but and fierce cut, underpinned by a floaty uplifting vibe. Light piano improvisations interact with heavy kick patterns, tightly chopped vocals weave with arpeggiated synths, culminating into a driving, and yet deeply personal experience.

The duo is sitting on an arsenal of new unreleased music. Building off this autumn release, 2021 could be a big year for them.

Maara - Ultimate Reward (Clips)

After appearances on Pure Space Canberra's Point Guard coming through with a strong solo debut. Three nuance-rich rolling originals will surely please the discerning ear. Sydney native PMA's remix on the flip transforms the eponymous track "Motions" into a mesmerising banger.
