Unknown Mobile “Mobile Sorcery”- PE009


Levi Bruce, aka Unknown Mobile, has been a prominent figure of the Canadian Underground for quite some time. He resides in Montreal and has contributed to a number of North American labels. It seems only natural that he is the next release on Planet Euphorique. 

“Mobile Sorcery” could be his most rhythmically diverse 12” yet, recorded in just a couple of weekends it breaks free from 4 to the floor, experimenting confidently with syncopation, voices dipping in and out of focus. The opener Broke Melt presents a driving baseline filled with attitude, flickers of glistening synth arpeggios to soften the clanging drum patterns, working in harmony with delicate top lines. The hypnotic haze of textures carries through the record, A2 lifting in energy; shooting stabs, ricocheted sub base filling the space between commanding snares. The Beat Dub of Sorcery strips the track back to the essentials, resulting in a perfect tool for DJ’s building tension. Surprisingly keeping the essence of the tune whilst offering hints of more dubbed, percussive club pushing UK bass.

The B Side explores more of these unconventional rhythmic themes whilst highlighting the power of melody. Heavenly Depression accurately depicting it’s title, pulling on the struggle of your emotions through an ever-progressing lead woven tightly over sweeping pads. The closing track Wilders Lake ties the record together cohesively, lifted stabs to calm the tripped out percussion swooping in and out, growling bass alluding to darkness. The EP blends genres to create new feelings from familiar foundations, channelling Detroit inspired grit and emotion; well rounded to suit hazed and hedonistic dance-floors.

--------

Following the release of ‘Blue Coat, Red Dress’ earlier this year, kilig steps up for their first EP for UK party and label Origins. Marking the second output for the imprint, ‘Is It Time’ will be available on the 3rd July. 

Holding a residency at London venue Night Tales, kilig draws from the city’s dynamic rave sound, moving away from the previous ambient tones found on their last EP. Leading with the title track, the single is tinged with euphoria as a warm vocal sample echos over shimmering synths. ‘VHS Flex’ and ‘Buckled’ take a darker turn as the sun sets into evening, filled with grittiness and attitude. The EP comes to a close with ‘Bed Test’, a night-to-light record with an endorphin-rich melody. 

Explaining the story and connection with Origins, kilig says, “When kilig started I made a little list of targets and places that I wanted to play, and people that I wanted to send music too. In terms of London, Origins sat pretty high on that list, booking names I genuinely looked up to. I finally got some music in front of the team there and a conversation opened up, but not about playing, instead they wanted to release a record. In the year since that conversation I’ve written a fair few club tracks. The writing process was very different to other stuff I make, maybe evident in the broad range of styles on this EP; my favourite elements of techno, breaks, house and electro, without sitting still for too long.

It feels somewhat ironic that during this time, where clubs can't even open, I would be releasing my first full club-centric EP - posing: Is It Time? 

I couldn’t be more excited to be working with the Origins team, especially in this strange time. I hope you find a suitable Time? to enjoy the release, and hopefully we can enjoy it together soon.” 

Origins launched their label in 2017 with an EP from Tomossini which featured a remix from Hodge and saw support from Anastasia Kristensen during her Boiler Room debut.

House mainstay Darius Syrossian is back with more of his dancefloor dynamite. This time the Moxy Muzik boss finds himself on Griffintown Records with two new gems that come after many years of laying down no frills but high impact tunes on the days finest labels. Darius said at the beginning of the year, 2020 will be the year he goes back to his roots of making House music, inspired by that tough 90s Chicago house sound, which is where he made his name. Over the last 2 weeks the release has received huge support on BBC Radio 1 from Pete Tong, Danny Howard, and Black Madonna. 

Rouge Disco is a colourful and playful track with big disco loops and slamming drums. Explosive vocal stabs and colourful chords, splashy hi hats and funk bass riffs all make sure this one will work the floor into a real lather. Diva is then a big and full flavour wedge of house music with emotive cries, bass stabs that tease and plenty of tension building that will have people in raptures. 

These tracks both show a different side to Syrossian with his usual high class results.

A1. Breaka - Loose Subs
A1. Guava - Outerbody Innerspace
A1. Lrds - Quanda
A1. Dawn Razor - Be As One 1

After the success of the first Slam Jams last year it seemed like an obvious shout to return for a second trip round the mulberry bush. This edition has two label stalwarts Breaka and Guava in fine form, slamming it and jamming it till the cows come home. Coming in at 160bpm Loose Subs is also the first track on the label to start reaching the lofty heights that all you nasty speed freaks are after. Outerbody Innerspace takes the tempo back down but in no way takes the foot off the pedal. Freaky deaky shit from start to finish.

On the second A side it is time to bring a couple new faces into the fold. Lrds from North London sent me through this absolute steam roller of a demo and it just felt so god damn right. This tune was destined for Holding Hands the second it was bounced out of his computer. Finally the man from Russia Dawn Razor comes correct with one of the deepest but certainly also one of the fattest tracks I’ve had the pleasure of releasing on the label. It’s a proper pleasure to put out a track from him as he was one of the first people to start sending me demos when the label started a few years ago. It takes a serious wallop fest of a track to cut it’s way through all the noise and this spicy number achieves that before it’s even got out of bed in the morning. Fair fuckin’ play mate.

PE012 is a label friends & family junction, a 12” summoning the distant yearning of otherworldly sonic release. Ciel and D. Tiffany unite as new collaboration Psychedelic Budz, long time friends who share a mutual affinity for prog and a desire for elevated states; offering Faerie Stomp, it’s internal reworking plus remixes from Ludwig A.F. and Adam Pits. The aural synergy of the record is laced throughout, tripped out spooky tech-trance, evocative dark imagery conjured at different speeds and energies. Like most of the Planet Euphorique catalogue, these tracks can duly be heard echoing throughout the night sky through forest or bush, as bodies flicker and move in hypnotized, unleashed states. 

The A side; the Origin Mix of Faerie Stomp and the Enchanted Mix by the Psychedelic Budz themselves sets the tone; tweaked atmospherics and field recordings, scurrying textures creating rhythmic collage. Drama and tension build through drones and bubbling 303 lines, villainous cackling and delay consuming the introduction in anticipation as the track develops into a stomping four to the floor promenade. Snares roll and chop in dizziness, encouraging your surrender to the lucid melodic synth lines, twirling in transfixion. The alternative mix could almost fit entwined into the original, slightly murked and more rhythmically rigid with metallic snares cutting through the denser timbre. Overall an expanded aura and creative opportunity for the deejays and those inhibiting dance space. 

Flip to the B side for the remixes, firstly Ludwig A.F.’s Haunted rendition. Keeping the eerie attitude in check he morph’s Faerie Stomp into a bombastic bass heavy club anthem, playing with build ups and stripping back elements for effect, the track is always propelling forward, shuffling shakers and scratches making it impossible not to move with it. Adam Pits also maintains the essence of the original whilst offering a whole new translation for his Undergrowth Mix, gargling baselines and whip crack percussion - buckle up for a hard and fast trip to new heights. Sweet relief is brought from floating stabs and melodic subtlety, softer break chops rolling over the brutal low end before the end of the record dissolves down to the encompassing swirling modulation and charging drum work. 

Four different devilish dance workouts for this unprecedented time. The power lies in the mesmerization. Lose yourself to the supernatural environment in the sonic texture.
