There's a real movement of raw, rough-edged, underground house pushing through dance music at the moment. White Material, Trilogy Tapes, Lobster Theremin and LIES are just a handful of labels putting out unpolished tunes that bump 'n' grind. Among that number is Apron, the imprint run by Funkineven and we have the first full play of a fine cut from his latest signing.

Skream - Suspension (edit)

The title track from Aqualung's new album, 'Tape 2 Tape', drops on November 3 and it's been remixed by Swedish producer HNNY, the man responsible for a series of lush house and disco cuts that have dropped via Studio Barnhus, Local Talk and Puss.

HNNY's edit is a house-roller through and through, with elements being gradually introduced from the off. The lyrics are nicely cut-up and the groove is one-of-a-kind. Check this immediately.

Raul Facio (Great Stuff, Monique Speciale) is next up on refused.’s release schedule.  This American talent from El Paso, Texas has crafted a deep, blippy, bloppy, trippy minimal offering that is now ready to be shared with the techno world.  The tracks “Critical", “Shank" and “Dot" will have listeners and dancefloors alike throbbing and anxiously awaiting the mysterious and creepy breakdowns only to be thrown back deep into groove again in less than a moment’s notice.  We hope you are as excited to play and support Raul Facio’s deep, dark, atmospheric “Critical” EP as much we are to unleash it to the masses.

Raul Facio | Dot [Preview]

Costello's the French producer dishing out deadly techno cuts with the backing of an equally potent German. 

After a run of releases on labels such as Boxon Records, Midnight Munchies and Bad Life - all poisonous cuts with a killer amount of fizz - he'd done enough to catch the attention of Boys Noize, which led to the 'Pegasus' EP on BNR Trax. 

Premiere: Costello 'Primal'

With 'Iyewaye', the first solo-EP after the release of his fifth album 'I am OK' last year, Oliver Koletzki shows himself in a new, but not altogether unfamiliar light: since his breakthrough in 2005 with 'Der Mückenschwarm' Koletzki hasn't sounded this hard.

Petrichor | On Tides
[Soma364d]

1.	On Tides
2.	Nukumori
3.	Royston Rain

The Petrichor project is the latest incarnation of Simon Stokes and on this EP he returns to a hardware-driven sound creating tactile, organic atmosphere within this immaculately produced output. The name Petrichor refers to the smell of rain after a period of dryness and this unique, specific occurrence offers evocative memory and imagery to anyone who thinks on the meaning. The name is therefore important as many of the ideas conjured up through this impression are relevant to the musical style demonstrated on the EP. A sense of nostalgia, an ethereal and reflective quality and a connection with elemental atmosphere are themes that permeate the music, along with a strong rhythmic core, offering an innovative and expressive new sound. 

Title track On Tides opens the EP and is introduced with notes circling around a central melodic motif. Developed carefully, this part of the track dominates as it builds. The subtle evolution of synth and percussion elements bolsters the track as it rises higher and higher, honing in on a drop. However, the track recedes before the point it traditionally may go over the edge, and begins to build again. The tides of the title are mirrored in the instrumental cycle and the dynamic ebb and flow. Each of the parts introduced is dealt with delicately and expertly.

Nukumori is the next track on the EP and it starts with more prominent percussion. Atmospheric synths come in to fill up the soundscape and the track slowly broadens out into an engrossing sound. The field recordings and vocal samples afford this track a unique, original quality where the dynamics are once more well controlled. The end result is an invigorating and intriguing track that connects emotionally as well as sonically. 

Royston Rain completes this diverse range of tracks offering more unique and highly engaging content. Full and interesting field recordings provide an enchanting entry into the track. The flowing, aqueous noises infer a sense of narrative, as images of floating under rainforest canopies are brought to mind. The melody lines and synth are perfectly sparse and beats are brought in to add impetus at the right moments. This is a stimulating track and well poised, even incorporating some electronic sounds towards the end to frame everything and draw the sounds on into another style and another track. 

This EP and new Petrichor direction are exciting prospects for the young Glaswegian and marks a definite maturity in production technique . A range of quality music is packed into these three tracks making this an EP not to be missed for its scope and unique style.

ELECTRIC RESCUE | BACK HOME
[Soma365d]
 
1.	Back Home
2.	No Garanty

Soma welcome French producer Electric Rescue to the roster with his dynamic debut ‘Back Home’.
Title track ‘Back Home’ sets the tone for this EP perfectly. The main melody opens the track and with great ease, Electric Rescue brings in flowing drums which pick up the pace. Fashes of ride cymbals lead us to the break where the synth dulls momentarily before opening and flourishing back into the track. The tracks moves along perfectly, drums driving the melody all the time again breaking down with an epic pad line designed to have those hands in the air! This is a perfect dance floor number containing all the right element to have peak time dancers go wild!
‘No Garanty’ finishes off the EP if a slightly more dark fashion. Rolling sub bass fires straight off while a syncopated lead gives a haunting air while one mother of a kick drum bashes through the heart of the track. Repetition is the game here, but not enough for you to lose interest, Electric Rescue utilises interesting patterns, fills and create use of delay and reverb to keep this one a perfect peak time track.
Electric Rescue has definitely made an impact at Soma and looks certain to be making waves with his debut release.

HARVEY McKAY | Goodbye
[Soma368D]
 
1.	Goodbye
2.	The End

Soma welcome back Glasgow based producer Harvey McKay for his first solo EP of the year, ‘Goodbye’. Harvey has had a great start to the year hitting number 1 in the Beatport techno charts with a storming release on Cocoon plus various other releases adding to his already stellar discography. Harvey returns to his home label with two typically heavy tracks both fuelled with his fast paced yet grooving production style.
Title track ‘Goodbye’ opens the EP and in true Harvey style. This track was truly designed for the dance floor however a deep pad and pitched down vocal gives this track more depth than expected. Harvey’s percussion is typically skippy and gives the track great momentum. After an epic breakdown the track kicks back in with drums crashing and with Harvey’s perfect arrangement, you can’t help but flow with the track.
‘The End’ is Harvey unleashing the beast within. What seems to be something more reserved quickly becomes a monster as filtered hi hats slowly work their way in, purging any idea of this track being anything less than full on techno. With only a brief rest bite in the middle when the track opens up with a suitably deep stab, ‘The End’ powers through with ferocious intensity.
Harvey is on the up and up and with more planned for release on Soma in the coming months, there is definitely no stopping this on form producer.
