We welcome Deep House maestro DJ Aakmael onto our roster with ‘The Hardbody Project’ EP, comprised of four original compositions from the Richmond, US-based artist.

Across the past decade and a half DJ Aakmael has unveiled an impressive back catalogue of soul-drenched, dynamic deep house via revered imprints such as Uzuri, Church, Scissor & Thread, Freerange and Second Hand Records amongst many more. Here we see his latest material perfectly interlace with our growing back catalogue of bumping house and raw deep cuts.

Leading the release is ‘Hardbody’, laid out across seven minutes with chopped brass samples, bright key sequences, modulating Moogesque resonant leads and shuffled drums before ‘Track 166’ shifts focus over to a deeper aesthetic via dubbed out chord swells, organic percussion and twinkling piano melodies.

The aptly named ‘Deepshyt’ opens the flip side, as the name would suggest employing an amalgamation of deep and entrancing synth work, crisp drums and spoken word vocal chants. ‘Strobe’ then rounds out the release with a more disco-tinged House feel, fusing together funk guitar licks, cinematic strings and a snaking bass groove atop Aakmael’s signature swinging rhythmic feel.

"Detroit Stories" is the name of this cool social project happening in Motorcity, USA, aka Detroit. Check it out at @detroit-stories. It's a rad way to capture and show off the history and present of the city and its peeps. They're doing it by interviewing OG residents and immigrants from way back, the ones who lived through all the ups and downs of the Motor City. You've got stories of good times, hard work, opportunities, but also struggles, violence, and social movements that shaped Detroit's rise and slow fall. This city's always had a lot to offer in terms of music, culture, and beyond.

And guess what? DJ and producer Luca Fronza gets in on the action, finding some of those interview podcasts. He's turning their stories, the vocals, and speeches into some killer beats, with the distinctive motorcity raw house touch that we absolutely love here at Flexi. And to top it off, you've got a remix by the master himself, Prins Thomas! It's gonna be lit!

"Got You In My Life" is the first release on GOOEY BEATZ and a return to my roots as a producer. This track basically represents what I love so much about 90s Hip Hop and RnB. It's just fun to produce such beats and it brings me peace and joy. GOOEY BEATZ is a platform for exactly this kind of music.

Siggatunez - Got U In My Life (GOOEY BEATZ)

Sit down kids, and let us regale you in a story. Back in the day (roughly around when BR was shaking off the last of its early UStream trappings) there was a consistently ahead-of-the-curve clubnight happening in Whitechapel, and later Peckham. It went by the name of Wholemeal, putting on sets by the likes of Blawan, John Heckle, Leif, Bake All Caps, Al Tourettes and plenty more besides, with one 'Esselle' holding down a regular slot warming up the dance. Well now Wholemeal are back, pivoting toward the honourable business of releasing records; Esselle has also gained a first initial. Happy days all round.

"Until She Spoke" melds a skippy rhythm, punchy drums and the kind of Rhodes or Rhodes-alike organ slope-offs into something super well-balanced and supremely enjoyable. In spite of the nearly 7m runtime, this little earworm whips by in flash, maxing out replay value. It's going to be the sound of spring, and most likely summer too. Cop it imminently on Wholemeal Music.
