Flight Facilities - Two Bodies feat. Emma Louise (Lido Remix)

Black Acre are definitely on a roll at the moment. With a discography already boasting heavy-hitters from the likes of Fantastic Mr. Fox, Romare and Dark Sky, they steamrolled through the past year with Clap! Clap!’s debut album Tayi Bebba - an afro-influenced funbag with generous amounts of footwork and bass around the 135bpm mark.

The Bristol-based imprint are refusing to pull the handbrake. They dip in again with a fresh rave-bunker from thrifty newcomer, Tsunga. Under Scratcha’s wing, Tsunga began his heavily distorted attack on the dance floor last year with the terrifying “Feisar”, melding a 92’ hardcore sensibility with grime’s ferocity. “Maris Piper” is fine chop and twist work. Built on Hulk-heavy low-end surges and relentless head-knocking breaks, it’s classic jungle techno at its best.

It arrives both digitally and on clear 10” vinyl on the 4th May 2015.

Tsunga “Maris Piper” - Boiler Room Debuts

The Caulfield Beats are,  they say , "a two-piece garage electronic band based in London" - but be very clear, there's nothing UK garage about them. They are 'garage' in the punk, home-made sense: their mixture of acidic techno, electroclash-y rigidity, subliminal sampled voices and off-beam song structures has a slightly ramshackle quality while still conspiring to kick you hard in the tender parts when you're not looking. They're a unique and puzzling proposition but we're definitely taken with this gurgling trip-out. 

 Cop their Mexican Smoke EP on May 24th.

Afrobuddha Boiler Room London DJ Set

Back in May, we Debuted a track called "Just"; you might just have heard of it. @feelmybicep are no strangers to breakout belters, but even by their standards this one has been picking up a heap of plaudits. So naturally we're more than willing to help facilitate their next step toward world domination, especially given as it arrives via their own cherished namesake imprint.

This, the title track from another forthcoming collaborative release with Hammer (an artist the Belfast boys are putting serious muscle behind) is equally tense and beguiling. It hooks you in from the word go, with a nagging piano lead, ooft-y mini breakdown and shiver-inducing sirensong calling through the mist. Close your eyes and you can imagine "Dahlia" laying waste to festival stages – oh wait, that actually did actually happen at Bicep's homecoming BR. Go figure.

You can physically feel FMB005 from September 7th.

Rewind 2015: A Universal Groove

For this Second State mix, the idea was to go outside of the techno and house sound that is normally expected and to dive into the music I enjoy listening to at home or on the road. To be honest it was really difficult to pick one style or "sound" to focus on, so I decided to try to create a really diverse mix of stuff I listen to frequently. From beginning to end, it covers a lot of sonic ground from cinematic stuff like Apparat, Ry X and Cliff Martinez to afro-beat classics like Fela Kuti and more modern tunes like Floating Points collaboration with Maaleem Mahmoud Guinia and the boundary pushing Congo band Mbongwana Star. From there I dove into Mexican surf rock tunes from Ween and El Santo Nada and right into timeless stuff like Can and Isaac Hayes before finishing up with a bit of thrashy rock gems from The Sound and Pixies. I tried to stay as far away from what everyone normal expects and hopefully you enjoy a trip down the wilder side of my music collection. See you BYND....
