We've been enamoured with Canadian producer SIM for some time, premiering 2019's incredible (and foreshadowing?) 'Lockdown' featuring 45DiBoss that was inspired by a period of hardship. The Montreal beatmaker recently signed to Nervous Horizon, the global electronic visionary label headed up by TSVI and Wallwork, who kick off their year with SIM's 'Terminate' EP. “Writing the ‘Terminate EP’ felt really intuitive and made sense,” SIM says. “As a raver kid myself, channeling this need to party towards my own craft was sort of therapeutic and gave me hope that a new era is on its way. Heavy subs shaking you to your core, squeaky synths echoing in the depths of the warehouse, sweat dripping down your face, this collective motion of hundreds of people, just moving to one rhythm. One pulse. That is what inspired me to write this EP." SIM's first entry point into music was within the dubstep scene, although he would later be introduced to the likes of Epic B, Uninamise, Hitmakerchinx and Brooklyn’s wider FDM network in New York. He now cites his main influences as artists like King Tubby and Dave Kelly, as well as Plastikman, Jeff Mills and Equiknoxx. 'Chased', which we're premiering now, wears those influences on its sleeve, fitting somewhere between the worlds of dancehall, FDM and gqom via razor sharp snares, stabbing bass and whirling alien synths.

==================
Everything Merged Vol 2
(release Dec 2)

‘Everything Merged’ is 3024’s second series of compilations featuring artists from the 3024 Mentoring Program. At the beginning of the pandemic, label owner Martyn started forming a lively online community of artists, providing them with ideas and inspiration. This community grew larger and larger, and musicians started to connect both online and offline, across continents and genres. It resulted in the “It Was Always There” series of compilations in 2021, as well as countless independent releases, radio appearances and gigs, putting a host of artists on the map.

Working on the program made Martyn and partner Jeroen Erosie reconsider the purpose of running a record label in 2022. ‘Are we still interested in putting out records via the usual channels?’ Or should a label become more of an umbrella for various activities by a larger community, both online and IRL, with digital and physical products, in other words merge everything into one.

“Everything Merged vol. 2” features both artists debuting their first tracks on a label as well as mainstays of core local scenes like London, NYC, SF and Berlin. From the percussive mastery of Sister Zo, Arcane Prospect and Manchester's DR MYSTERY to the sly techno mutations of Kudeki, Clay Wilson and Pino Peña, this collection highlights the wide variety of sounds and influences inhibiting the current electronic scene. Especially check out the post-pando exuberance of uuklyph, Henry Kerins and Padoa and the bass mutations of Dutch duo TMSV & Case, Kenji Ko, Ragdy and Rex the Bard!

Sister Zo - Bubbly (3024-MEN5)

Redstone Press celebrates its fifth year in action with one last release in this, their busiest year to date. Debba’s signature beatwork and melodic flourishes are given space to breathe with the dreamy synths of ‘Subtle’ building up, then breaking down into a low-slung pitched down UK Techno roller.

On ACEN048, Outsider makes her All Centre debut. Following standout appearances on four Pressure Dome compilations, the Derbyshire-based artist presents two forward-thinking, experimental club tracks.

Good Bone Structure opens with tense rolling snares and a shimmering pad as kick drums articulate the track’s broken rhythm. The arrangement builds to the introduction of a two note bassline which shifts and evolves into new and unpredictable mutations throughout the 7 minute track, underpinned by hard drums and embellished with ecstatic synth melodies.

Stick Shift opens with forceful four to the floor kicks and a dubbed-out, restless chord progression which darts around the percussion. The synth moves and grows, alternating with and reacting to the track’s ricocheting bassline, whilst syncopated claps keep the track’s compelling rhythms in check.

Good Bone Structure is available across all digital platforms on the 26th May.

« Founded almost four years ago, Le Motel’s Maloca Records has excelled in world-building as it tirelessly brings together some of the best and most innovative artists from different pockets of the club community around the world. This is showcased most notably through the compilation series which returns for its second volume on the 8th December as it combines both established and breakthrough artists.

Across 17 tracks, Maloca, Vol. 2 features both label family and exciting debuts with the likes of Farsight, Griffit Vigo, and DJ JM returning to the imprint. The rest of the compilation sees knockout contributions from the likes of Bambounou, Flore, Konduku, Tristan Arp, NVST, De Grandi, Neida, Cheb Runner, Malo2k, Leese, Ultima Esuna & Destrata, Mika Oki, M I M I and Space Drum Meditation. Whilst these artists may be from different cities across the pond, they all have something in common - they are leading the way for the next wave of club music. Whether that’s the riotous sounds of NVST, Griffit Vigo’s ever- evolving landscape of gqom, Tristan Arp’s signature insect-inspired soundscape, the emerging Brussels-based artists M I M I and Mika Oki or the trippy, introspective melodies of Konduku and Space Drum Meditation. Maloca, Vol. 2, captures a mind-melting moment in time.

The artwork is by Brussels-based painter Anastasia Bay who’s work presents a renewed vision of the human figure. Oscillating between abstraction and figuration, Anastasia Bay’s work is all about contrast and balance. The choice of a precise fragment of reality in her works dissolves any narration. »

Release Date: July 19th, 2024
Info: The "NIGHT TRAIN EP" marks the start of our collab. Since we linked
up, we've been producing, spinning tracks, and sharing our love to all
sorts of breaks and Bass music.
Metronone got a production background influenced by Electro and
American bass, Dimosoundz more influenced by jungle, bass and British
rave culture.
On this EP, It's all about blending our backgrounds and finding the sweet
spot. It's a groove focused EP influenced by the early days of UK Rave
culture, featuring smooth pads, banging kicks, and Amen break, along
with hints of Miami Bass and early Baile Funk.
The name "NIGHT TRAIN" came from our grind – from late-night
production sessions to hitting the first or last train after a DJ sesh.
The clips were processed with some analog video gear and a touch of
Cordon Bleu finesse.
Bienvenue à Bord!

The compilation showcases Timedance's evolution from 'Bristol techno' to a more global conscious sound, incorporating energies from different scenes and synthesising them into new modern forms.

@akikoharuna contributes the jittery, sub-rattling 'Die & Retry'.
