“The Very First Real Magic” is the aptly named first release of Escape Artist’s new imprint 'PSY SECTION'; coming in the form of a various artists affair, brought together by the power of friendship. After years of being sent amazing music by new and old friends from near and afar, the time has come to share this joy with the rest of the world. 

As a label, they will seek to shine a light on psychedelic music of all designs and the first release will focus on the dance variety. It is the label’s hope that the love and friendship that brought this project together will shine through in the music.

Hex Editor’s transcendental breakbeat dreamscape ‘Tuesday’ opens the B side with expert precision. Soaring pads and swimming arpeggios provide the perfect spot for the listener to land after their flight from the previous side. PSY SECTION's debut record is one well worth checking out as a whole and as always, if you like, make sure you support the artist and label by giving it a buy.

PREMIERE: Hex Editor - Tuesday [PSY SECTION]

Today we’re happy to premiere Tart Jam from New York based DJ and producer, Aspetuck, who’s no stranger to Delayed. Whether it be through his most recent album released on Oslated, all original mixes, ambient sets, or one of his recent self released bandcamp EPs, Griff aka Aspetuck is never far from our minds or speakers here in Brooklyn.

Like a musical kaleidoscope, turning and twisting, snapping melodies in and out of focus, Tart Jam seems to evolve and bring the listener on an acidic journey. Each minute ending with different moments than the prior, but all made cohesive by an underslung bass line giving that all important groove.

Tart Jam and the rest of the Mind Wandering EP will be out on December 15th, under Marco Malpeso’s Wex Records imprint and their Telomere Plastic sub-label.

Through their music curation work at One Eye Witness, co-founder Hylke has been silently influencing the sounds that resonate in clubs and underground dance music record collections around the world.

His newly created label Spectral Bounce takes it one step deeper, providing a platform for music imbued with eerie grooves and subtly expressive energy, capturing the listener right at their core.

SPEC01 - Force of Nature - Is the fruit of the long-standing musical relationship and shared visions of producer and Selector RDS and Spectral Bounce, the perfect catalogue opener.

Over four moody club-ready tracks, RDS dives into the sound of the after-hours, where minds are freed and darker energies are expressed. Both sides display perfectly controlled acid synthesis, heart-grabbing bass lines, cut-through drum sampling and an extremely textured and gritty mix. RDS' musical influences are clearly felt, harmoniously fusing UK 90s bleep techno, spacey tech house and dub with his own emotional perspective to club music.

The Dutch producer's distinct dance floor sound is here captured in its essence, processed through his expressive electronic machines while controlling tempo and energy in a unique manner. This EP is a sonic statement, offering the listener the Spectral Bounce sound.

pi pi pi premiere: RDS - Keep On (SPEC01)

Artist: Various Artists 
Title: Haŵs Party Vol. 4 
Label: Haŵs 
Cat No: HAWS026
Format: 12” Vinyl


Tracklist: 

A1. Adam Pits - Swings & Roundabouts
A2. Maara - You’re So Delicious
B1. Guy Contact - Initiate Sequence
B2. Solar Suite - Greens Pool


The next phase of Cardiff-based label Haŵs’ metamorphosis emerges via four proggy, psychedelic cuts on their latest V/A offering, with three previous alumni making their returns and newcomer Maara landing her debut appearance on the imprint.

Kicking off the A-side is Adam Pits with the flickering ‘Swings & Roundabouts’, an opener akin to rolling headfirst down a rabbit hole and somehow finding yourself sailing above the clouds. Maara adds another dimension to the trip with ‘You’re So Delicious’, dimming the lights with dreamy synth-lines amidst brilliantly flashing melodies.

On the B-side, Guy Contact steps up to the wheel with ‘Initiate Sequence’ - an oozing, toe-tapping track that settles into romantic, purring manipulations and surrealist loops. Solar Suite rounds up the synaesthesia with ‘Greens Pool’, sliding through an internal soundscape of tension and release owed to the spectral guidance of horns, flutes, piano chords, against a soothing, steadfast bassline.

Close your eyes and step inside: the only journey is the one within.

Bristol's mighty @gallegos_1991 has been flying literally and figuratively of late, with sets everywhere from Panoramabar to Glastonbury's monstrous Arcadia stage. He comes up trumps with this ravey banger on @thrilogy's excellent Fate And Fiction Recordings that keeps you guessing with its myriad twists and turns..

@diskcard @alich_music

In our current perspective of dematerialization, where screens and chips have flooded the world, we find ourselves deprived of what makes us feel alive: physical connection.
Far from the ever intangible digital realm, people and records help us maintain this bond.

True to this philosophy, DiskCard was born and for the first release, Alich comes through with a perfectly matching aesthetic: five crunchy squashed and chippy infused tunes meticulously scraped out from small synths and pocket devices, giving his EP an undeniable character and setting the label's prime footprint.

For the music that matters, there is DiskCard.
