‘Orange Slices’ coming from Everett marks the northern artist’s first-ever solo release linking up with Manchester-based label and party series Left, Right & Centre for the second time.

The five-track presentation of sound sees four original cuts sit aside a heavyweight remix from Bristol’s Bruce, for a late summer/early autumn smash hit release, leaning towards a wonky techno sound, purpose-built for peak time club night ferocity.

Everett has made his name slowly but surely as a cornerstone for quality in Manchester’s electronic underbelly, whether that be through his meticulous DJ sets, his radio presence throughout the years or his association with the inimitable The White Hotel.

Now permitted to spread his wings across the five-tracker, Everett’s time spent between the quiet recesses of Mancunian dances and honing his sound with deadly precision pays dividends. His attention to detail and ear for quality shines through on ‘Orange Slices’. Touching across the producer’s broad and deft tastes, the productions are a celebration of Everett’s infatuation with half-time DnB, slow-burning Techno and the newfangled styles of Ploy et al. Glitchy drums and unpredictably poised percussion cement Everett as one of Manchester’s most deadly and disruptive music makers you’ve never heard of.

Left, Right & Centre touch base with double figures on this EP with now 10 releases under their belt and a link up with Hessle Audio associate Bruce for the first time on a release, the label consistently focuses on a UK sound that places momentous raw energy at its core through their collaborative efforts in and outside the club and the city of Manchester.

Orange Slices EP

pi pi pi premiere: Everett - Orange Slices (Bruce's All Pith Mix)

Pomegranate Skies is a new album from me exploring sonic themes of heaven and hell, dualities, split identities, and chaos. The music in this album is a reflection of the ever-constant existential chaos in my mind, reflecting a musical journey through all the different influences and inspirations of genres and electronic music eras throughout my life but also a nod to the amorphous weight of divine weirdness that inspires my music. Music that is reflecting a split identity, music in between cultures. Music that is both good and evil, both sensical and non sensical, both angelic and hellish, secular and divine. Music to give you visions of geographic wonders that don’t really exist. The absurdism of everything from Earth but also of Heaven. Music that doesn’t follow tropes but also sounds familiar. It makes you want to laugh and cry; the in betweenness of everything. Music that makes you want to reach up and taste the pomegranates growing in the skies.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Night Garden - Regenerate [BAIT3]

New French imprint Bait is a label focused on the cross over of two spheres: snare heavy bass-music and immersive mental techno. The outcome is technoïd-dubstep that is minimal, contemplative and at the same time calls for gun fingers and backspins. Label boss Beatrice M. likes to call the genre “dubtek”. This particular release, focused on the more prog and trance-inducing side of the coin, includes "Regenerate", British artist Night Garden's take on Bait's AD. Intelligibly designed, the atmosphere of his track is a perfect balance of trippy textures and sharp drums. The snare on the 3rd beat winks to a genre nicknames "140", but completely re-imagined here, in a fresh yet woozy tunnel.

Seven suites of deep and sprawling sonic meditations built around ‘call and response’ improv sessions between Randy Raine-Reusch and Michael Red.

Slow and tempered recordings of Asian flutes, African harps, temple gongs and a myriad of obscure instruments from Randy Raine-Reusch's deep collection mutate and ebb into swirling gossamers of tone. Sonic incantations stretched and magnified further by Red's Sends. An otherworldly play between light and shadow worlds; at times idyllic and light-filled, at times dark and eerie– all engrossing. Dream-reality reconciliations weave between the spectral world of Michael Red's sound processes and the direct physicality of Raine-Reusch's playing. The tension across the pieces builds between the live playing and processing techniques, dutifully revealing a growing familiarity with collective transcendence through sound (bigger than the sum of its parts). Real-time interactive dream music.

Initially realized over the course of a few days in Randy’s instrument museum in Vancouver BC [December, 2014] 'ERAS' is made up of processed, and sometimes multi tracked, improvisations between Randy and Michael. Through these sessions Randy would choose instruments he sensed possibilities within, and Michael then revealed and sculpted these possibilities. Both resonating, sensing sonic structures, environmental nuances, and further worlds in each other’s art, all within the moment. Being present for each other, they acted on instinct, trusting a first thought, trusting each other; committing, responding to that commitment, then mutating and letting go. Always moving forward, synthesizing and letting the living moment lead the way.

The recordings were left to distill and mature for many years before the composers felt it was ready. With minimal judicious edits and a very light dusting of FXs, both careful to preserve the direct and intuitive process that permeates the recording, ERAS now emerges.

For the last 3 years, Dreaming Vinyl have been operating as an audio-visual-focused music discovery platform. They reimagine some of their favorite records in the form of animated vinyl stickers, alongside commissions from renowned labels such as XL Recordings, Blue Note, Rhythm Section, Anz, and EGLO Records.

This year marks the relaunch of Dreaming Vinyl, now operating as both a motion design studio and a label – DV Records. They're kicking it all off by celebrating 9 exciting electronic dance tracks for their V/A charity release. The tracks are paired with 9 visualisers, designed and animated by the Dreaming Vinyl co-founders, who have a deep interest in the visual interpretation of music. The charity compilation features talent from the likes of Elphin, LUXE, Impey, Herman, DJ ojo, Sister Zo, GoodMostlyBad, Ikävä Pii, and Tim Reaper.

The debut compilation explores a CD release raising money for MAP Charity. MAP Charity is an alternative education provider working with young people in Leeds who are unable to access the mainstream school system. Young people access empowering music and arts qualifications and opportunities to professional pathways at their home, Hope Foundry is also home to MAP Charity's in-house fundraising event Cosmic Slop - where resident and guest DJs play records through a unique custom-built soundsystem and 100% of the funds raised goes towards supporting the education programme.

The second compilation instalment limited to 100 hand-numbered copies.

Plebeian NYC-based Andrew Nerviano sheds another absurdly intricate full spectrum creeper, weaving network patterns and (a)tonal stabs into a composite romance. 

Corell a designation of Roman Kutnov, instigator in the new wave of ambient pathfinders, showcases his distinctive take on utopian texture hiss underpinned by rhizomatic composition structures. 

Gaul Plus previously Dear Leader of Broken Call & Fifth Wall records presents a slab of hollowed out nybrutalist breakbeat in the Junta Rave heritage. 

Undveld aka Hyggia - rising up from Lithuania’s sombre underbelly, co-running Static Motion, here patching together nebulous shades of techno into a frequency haze.

A1 Plebeian - Ephemerides (Clip)

Grid Records kick off their 2024 with Contrast EP, a mesmerising collection of future-facing tracks from certified one-to-watch Plebeian. The NYC producer is quickly garnering deserved attention for his acutely detailed and explorative bass productions reminiscent of Objekt and Djrum.

Plebeian offers up four shimmering and lush dance organisms that exist in an ecosystem entirely of their own. Microscopic drum engineering coupled with flourishes of dubbed out percussion, moments of blissful beauty and infinitely oscillating synth swells, all distilled to create 4D soundscapes that will captivate and intrigue the listener - Panic is no exception to this. 

Release Date: 16th Feb 2024
