PIFF Records welcomes Venice-based producers Nicola Brusegan and Steve Hammer to the label on their latest release, Different Gear EP.

Both producers have a rich history of collaborations, sharing releases on a multitude of labels in recent years. Despite not sharing production duties on any individual track on this release, their musical styles seamlessly blend together to construct a rich sonic tapestry traversing vibrant deep house and soulful dub techno.

The first four tracks on the EP will be available on both vinyl and in digital formats. Steve Hammer offers a simple-yet-raw bassline paired with crisp 808 percussion and dreamlike pads on Black Jack, in contrast with the more upbeat and playful Sadiq. Magic Colour, courtesy of Nicola Brusegan, revolves around a thunderous pumping bassline and stripped-back drums, whilst The River is centred around dubbed-out chords which keep pushing the track forwards.

A plethora of 90s-infused soundscapes continue throughout the final five tracks of the release, available exclusively in digital formats. Highlights include the lively serotonin-drenched melody of We Can Do It, and the glitchy arpeggio of Place 4 (both provided by Steve Hammer), alongside Nicola Brusegan airy pads and hypnotic bassline on XX33 and the Chicago-style vocal sample of Naked.

Rounding off the release with Look Inside Me, Nicola Brusegan applies melodic pads and shuffling drums to create a hazy track available for free download for buyers of the digital EP.

Over the course of 9 tracks, the pair of Venetian producers express the soulful grooves of 90s house through refreshingly modern production standards.

Digital Release: 3rd March 2023

Vinyl Release: 15th May 2023

Different Gear

Nicola Brusegan & Steve Hammer - Different Gear EP (PIFF009) SNIPPETS

Kind-spirited troublemaker, dance~music maniac, and foundational force behind Pluto — a multidisciplinary art and music space in Gothenburg, run in collaboration with fellow residents, Sara Granér, @jens-lekman, and @christofferberg

Together with Christoffer, we also occasionally host a micro-club powered by his custom DIY sound system "LoveWithinSound", creating immersive dancefloor experiences inspired by the ethos of David Mancuso’s The Loft. Live DJ recording from the event series can be found in the playlist “Flight Club Recordings” here on my profile.

Pluto was founded back in 2021 when blessed with a rare opportunity to take over a historic space down in the harbour, which once served as a studio for Ace of Base. I renovated the space with the help of a dear friend, without a clear intent of what to make of it. In this newfound sanctuary, a year later, I started to DJ myself as a way to uplift my spirit, reminiscing over the end of an era. Having then moved back from Berlin, where I had spent close to a decade, raving. 

Inspired to keep the fire burning while now back in the Shire. Pluto today serves not only as a base of daily operations for a handful resident artists. But also facilitates an extended community and various cultural projects. Much of the alsters found on this profile is likely a direct or indirect result of our Plutoverse.
