Goldmund - Sometimes

Mr Bristow has become a household name on Breakbeat Paradise Recordings and is now back to drop his third solo EP - Drunk On Funk. This time around he’s brought along a harder ghetto funk sound, which has attracted some of the very best producers in the scene for remix duties. Ghetto Funk darling B-Side, J-Sound of Scour Records, DJ Clairvo (one half of Jack Lemmon and Nynfus Corp) and veteran funkster Jazz.K.Lipa.

Vocal duties are performed by Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Phil Ramocon, who has worked with icons including Jimmy Cliff, Bob Marley, Gregory Issac, Cher and Neneh Cherry.  Together with Mr Bristow, a huge ghetto funk anthem has been crafted, with a feel good vibe of getting drunk on funk and partying all night long!

B-Side gets busy and does what he does best on his home turf with a huge bass line and catchy party rocking beats, which leaves us longing for more. Luckily he’s gonna be back on Breakbeat Paradise in the near future to drop a full 4-track EP. 
J-Sound slows it down a bit and blends some sweet piano hooks and big boogie bass lines. Just like the vocals call for, this remix has that feel good vibe and cool funky grooves. 

Dj Clairvo brings it down an extra notch on his laidback remix with a hip hop twist and some Latin vibes.

Finally Jazz.K.Lipa returns to the label with some fresh moombaton flavours to end the EP right where it started – on the dance floor.

Florian Meindl is to release a new EP on the 2nd of November. Set for release on Florian's established label FLASH Recordings, Collide: Remixes is a collection of remixes of the tracks from Florian Meindl's well received May LP 'Collide'. A collision of analog sounds and styles, Collide takes the listener on a dark techno journey, while the remixers stay true to this. Florian has invited fellow electronic producers Berger, Dubspeeka, Electric Rescue & Avgusto to each bring their individual sound to the remix EP delivering a fresh take on the prominent tracks from Collide. The multi-talented and multi-faceted artist Florian Meindl is renowned for his technical prowess, and over the years has established an impressive producing base for him himself in his Berlin based Riverside Studio complex. After fourteen years of international performances and production, Florian has developed a special collection with his analog equipment, letting them speak for him in music where words just aren't possible.

Since its inception in 2002, Third Ear's output has remained ineffably reliable and multifaceted whilst carrying forth a distinct and tangible sense of soul. Now, 13 years on, Wbeeza makes a welcome return home and follows up a slew of lauded EPs on the label as well as his 2010 debut LP, 'Void' with only his second album, 'Expression Of Love'. And what an album it is. A long term favourite among both House traditionalists and experimentalists, Warren Brown entwines Jazz, Hip Hop, Detroit Techno, Soul and Disco with impressive ease, and with Expression Of Love the Peckham, South London-born and bred producer expands on his canon and presents 7 cuts that fans both old and new will relish. The opening track, 'Say Nuttin' kicks things off with a long-tailed kick pulsing beneath tight shuffles and syncopated ride shots. Rich and complex rhythms interweave and propel rich, swirling synth tones before 'Cosmic Jazz' goes deeper, setting a hypnotic vocal through stop-start kick patterns and creamy Detroit pads. 'It's A Sign' finds Wbeeza returning to the work of Gil Scott Heron once again. He takes two different samples and deftly works them into a heavy, claustrophobic groove, with a subtly processed sax loop circling asymmetrically throughout. 'Work' sits a cartoonish snippet from a recording of a gang member explaining his reaction to one of his homies being shot dead, over freely sequenced drum work and a steadily filtered bass line to mesmerizing effect. Experimental in its development - 'Expression Of Love' is the centre-piece of the album. The track goes through some startling changes and atmospheres. At 109 bpm, glowing Rhodes tones, tumbling bongos, creaking kick drums and shining synths sweep out over its 14 minute duration. A blue, languid groove steadily blooms into focus and is then dismantled. 'Turn The Lights Off' evokes a dark club with low ceiling and sweat dripping off the walls, through spectral tones and a voice that intones 'Turn The Lights Off, Turn The Music Up', propelled by one of Wbeeza's famous kick drums. 'Cakewalk' then brings things to a close with some playful MPC work. Truncated Soul samples are carried by no-nonsense rhythms before a switch up snaps in to catch the dance floor off guard. Added shuffles and trumpet snips build a buoyant and Jazzy vibe that brings another coup for Third Ear and another truly fine addition to Wbeeza's catalogue to a close.

Klasse Recordings and Grafiti Tapes impresario, Luca Lozano, rolls up to Hypercolour with a 12” par excellence of genre blending, future dance grooves.  Leaning on his Sheffield upbringing, it’s of no surprise that the break beats, edits and bleeps of his native city seeps into his own forward thinking productions.  Having racked up some super releases for Sex Tags UFO, Optimo Trax, Crème Organization, alongside his own imprints, Lozano really impresses on his Hypercolour debut.  

‘Gun Fingers’ is a strictly heads down affair, luscious synths, tantalising breaks and heavyweight b-line sandwich in-between pounding kicks for a classy cut, whilst ‘Calling All Dancers’ is indeed a call to rave, laced with the familiar components of a golden era of UK dance, that never slips into pastiche, instead sounding fresh, vital and relevant to the times.

Kindred spirit, DJ Sotofett, weighs in with two versions of ‘Gun Fingers’ exclusively for the vinyl edition of this release.  Those who know Sotofett’s killer style will know the score here, and he certainly does not disappoint.  And those who spent time chasing around motorways and A roads in search of the party will most definitely know what’s up on this set of remixes!

"Defined by their unique, experimental sound rather than an excessive fear of radiation, the affliction for which they are named, Radiophobia is the latest act to join Berlin imprint Exploited Records. Inspired by a variety of genres, from minimalist techno to retro acoustic, the group will today unveil their debut release, Can't Stop Believing." (THUMP)

Radiophobia is psychedelic, meditative dance music that inspires strong feelings of dark melancholia or transcendental euphoria. Radiophobia swirl around from minimalistic techno to full on 70s indie vocals. Musical inspiration comes from a wide variety of genres and artists, from classic to contemporary sounds, from pop to experimental and from genius to downright silly.
Radiophobia adopt the definition of "Fusion" and "Synthesis". ’Can’t Stop Believing’ - Radiophobia’s debut and first record ever - blasts into an unpredictable huge vocal moment.
Radiophobia about ’Can’t Stop Believing’: “If you skipped through like a Vinyl you would think it was more of an album and not a single.“ It’s all about the extended epic version.

You haven't got too long to wait until Russian producer Enei releases his second album, 'Rituals'. 

It's out on December 4 and you can trust us when we say it's one of the strongest drum 'n' bass albums of the year. The Critical Music regular's treated us to a whole load of the bruising d'n'b he's made his name with, but also a few softer-sided liquid-leaning gems that you probably wouldn't expect.
