"This EP is the result of years of identity research.

After more than 10 years of electronic music, I succeeded in this second EP to gather all the musical currents which inspired me and made vibrate all my life. My artistic approach is to create a fusion between the different musical genres that influence me, and especially, to give each of my tracks, a real identity. Percussion with Tribal sounds, a heaviness that we recognize Bass Music, rhythms shifted and dancing, this is what qualifies Leese.

This mixture is tasty, between the emotional, and the technical, I want at all costs to build original structures, varied and innovative, while traveling through all these currents, in the desire to make the listener feel.

I like this round aspect of this EP. Everything ties together, and is carefully handled. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to bring together, but I feel when I'm going in the right direction or not, each time I produce. It's a heavy and sub urge that takes to the trips, with these percussions that recall our primal instincts and speak directly to our body. The human reconnection that allows the addition of oriental voices, accompanied by melodic layers (with partimony).

I hope to touch the originality, I hope to create the astonishment, the surprise. The moment of creation can sometimes be very introspective, I do not count any more the hours or I tore off the hair of my head, to try to find my personal touch and what will make me vibrate myself in this process. The end result is self recognition. I am very happy to be able to present you this EP, as well as to deliver you a part of me."

After working together for years as curators of Egregore Collective's label side and sharing the decks on multiple occasion, Kaval & Qant finally join forces, conjurating four tracks around their common denominators : powerful percussions, heavy subs, and a dash of dub
chords. With it's range of different rythms between 130 and 140bpm, this split EP titled 'More Life' is guaranteed to make you move.

We premiered an experimental bass mutation from UK duo Traces last year (who have made dubplates for Loefah and Mala in the past), and now Theo, one half of the pair has his sights fixated firmly on the percussive delights that exist within the 100BPM - 140BPM tempo range and beyond.

'Residual' is a monster debut from his new solo moniker; a bass-dancehall hybrid which blasts through malfunctioning electronics, brain-melting percussion and steppy post-dancehall aesthetics. Watch ya bass bins and play this one loud.

The ascension of Earth is underway, marking a new phase in our evolution on this magnificent planet. It is cruical now that we unite as one for the collective well-being of humanity.

V/A - Ascension Vol. 2 [8ther-002] Previews

The bus weaved between towerblocks, the road was tightly packed with cars and the people hustling and bustling their way home from work under the smog. The city was dimly lit and it was hard to recognise the faces which passed by the window. Perhaps ge knew some of them from days gone by. After all, once upon a time he was out here everyday.

The bell rang suddenly and the doors rattled open.

He glanced upwards only to be greeted with a familiar smile. The kind he hadn’t seen for quite a while, the wild sort which meant that what came next was anyones guess.

Coe is set to release a stormer of a two track EP on First Second Label. This one holds no punches and is set for dark basements, big soundsystems and beyond. It bangs and rumbles with a throb.

PREMIERE: Coe - Skooma [First Second Label]

Prepare to immerse yourself in a world of broken and straight beats, ethereal melodies, and gritty grooves. Intricate soundscapes have captured our attention, with messages from deep outer space resonating through our receptors.

We’re thrilled to welcome the like-minded sonic traveler Coben8 and his Reconciliation EP to our catalog.

This 5-track EP features three original compositions that seamlessly blend an uplifting yet surreal vibe, reminding us that alien raves are a reality. With pulsating, sometimes psychedelic grooves, each track envelops the listener in a trance-like journey. With constant energy transmission the vibes are continuously held high.

Adding to these stellar compositions the two remixes by Gorelikas & Cport Cistema excell the emotional bliss. Gorelikas’ remix of “Forward” amplifies the bass and drives the track with progressive housey-acid-infused sounds, while CPort Cistema’s remix of “Union” closes the EP on a comforting note. The broken beat,  lush, two-part melodies and healing basslines create a warm embrace we all dearly need and brings the EP full circle.

Enjoy these cosmic gems as we transition into the colder season.

Hands up

Modula’s ninth offering, the “Baila Conmigo” EP, finds label cornerstone Cosmosolar steering the ship with assured confidence. This five-track collection is a vibrant conversation, beginning with its collaborative title piece crafted alongside Mexico’s Tierra de Ovnis (SXDNS295). The original version of “Baila Conmigo” is joined by a VIP reinterpretation and a separate rework from the talented Argentinian producer, Balam (SXDNS048). The EP’s scope broadens further with the inclusion of “Bengala,” a Cosmosolar solo piece that also receives a transformative treatment from V.C.I., ensuring a rich and varied listening journey from start to finish.

Within this context, “Bengala” emerges as a fierce and focused statement. The track immediately establishes a compelling groove, a Latin rhythmic foundation that feels both warm and propulsive. Cosmosolar weaves a tapestry of retro-futuristic elements, where shimmering synth melodies dance against a backdrop of unexpected, wild samples. This combination crafts a deeply atmospheric and almost visual experience, suggesting vast, otherworldly plains. The production is dense and immersive, building with a palpable energy that culminates in a release felt deeply in the body and the heart, fully embracing the dance floor while inviting personal introspection. It’s a powerful demonstration of the artist’s ability to channel a specific mood into a commanding rhythmic force.
