Rushing us headlong into a vorticist maelstrom of hard-edged drum stutter and polychromatic synth fragmentation, Sansibar sophomore long-player for Kalahari Oyster Cult - “Sans Musique” - tackles the very essence of post-trancey, breaks-loaded UK blends with unabashed joy to wreak havoc on his path. Throughout seven tracks oozing burnt kerosene and depleted uranium residue merged with a hint of sacred incense, Sansibar deploys his extra-wide vision for the present and future of dance music.

“Scully” attacks pedal to the metal, hi-intensity bass onslaughts and knee-buckling breaks roaring as the groove slings us at bullet-speed into a hot, narrow barrel of floor-focused aggression. 

Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, Sansibar is a non-pareil cosmic traveller - also producer, resident DJ at Kaiku and Post Bar and wave agitator on IDA Radio and EOS Radio - whose genre-unbound sound credentials for the likes of Kalahari Oyster Cult, Natural Sciences, Émotsiya, Darknet, Avoidance et al. have helped establish as one of today’s most intriguing talents in the European scene.

Kasra V’s Hyperdelic EP, his first release on Radiant Records, showcases the producer’s attentive ear for textural and rhythmic play. His last EP from 2018, Akasa, was a collection of dreamy, break-driven pieces, and a more ambient collaboration with Dopplereffekt; timbre and meticulously tuned sonics were also in focus then, but we now hear a reduction of form, and with it, a saturation of style.

“Voice note to self” kicks off the EP with a boom-bap drum loop. The rhythm continues as percussive elements are added and removed, adhering to the groove and its growing complexity. A warm bassline chugs along, pitched vocals mumble into the static, and an ascendant pad begins to give the track a gorgeous depth: a horizon. Following is a remix of the same track by Byron B. Yeates and Roza Terenzi, adapting certain samples from Kasra V’s production and looping them up to a brisk 142 BPM. As can be expected from these two, the kick’s punchy 4/4 structure is buttressed by crisp percussion and clever, unexpected rhythms.

On the B-side, “Vesper” takes us back to downtempo. Bumping on at around 80 BPM, Kasra V builds upon a drum-machine loop with processed percussion samples: a snare-roll one could hear in a jungle track, chopped claps panning across the break, and so on. And the slow, warm gurgle of an 808 comes in just at the point of fracture, holding it all together. “Night Prime” extends the EP’s principle of a drum loop serving as the skeleton – with greater drama, somehow. Like in “Voice note to self”, we hear vocal samples, but here they swerve in and out of clarity; we break into unexpected moments of silence, and the loop restarts; 3 minutes in, a huge, minor piano chord breaks upon the track like dusk. “Warm up great” closes the EP with the blend of left-field groove and dissonance one might associate with Future Sound of London or early work of The Chemical Brothers. The textures and tunings of each sample are so dense, so delicious, Kasra V lets us savour them for the last 20 seconds of the EP, lost in the reverb of a singly struck piano key.

Marco Ono returns with his new EP, Dialled In, released via the Manchester based label, Skiptrace. Known for his playful approach to production, Marco continues to redefine his sonic landscape, pushing the boundaries of his sound with every release.
Skiptrace, a label plying their trade in forward-thinking club music, has been home to Marco’s work before, with his A Prayer Before Dawn EP being one of their first releases, and he featured on the label’s VA in March 2024. 
This time around Marco traverses a broad spectrum of sounds by fusing gritty, syncopated rhythms with deep, atmospheric basslines to create a body of work that’s as introspective as it is club-ready. Dialled In is a testament to his evolution as an artist and a statement for where Skiptrace want to take the label, into uncharted territory for adventurous listeners

Marco Ono - In For A Penny

● "StarWars" explores the tension between structure and movement through a blend of Jersey club and broken rhythms. Clocking in at 129 BPM, it drives forward with sharp percussion, minimalist vocal cuts, and low-end pressure designed for physical spaces. Hypnotic yet direct — built for late hours and full floors.

ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO DIRECTLY TO THE MARSHA P. JOHNSON INSTITUTE

The Marsha P. Johnson Institute (MPJI) protects and defends the human rights of BLACK transgender people. We do this by organizing, advocating, creating an intentional community to heal, developing transformative leadership, and promoting our collective power.

We intend to reclaim Marsha P. Johnson and our relationship as BLACK trans people to her life and legacy. It is in our reclaiming of Marsha that we give ourselves permission to reclaim autonomy to our minds, to our bodies, and to our futures.  We were founded both as a response to the murders of BLACK trans women and women of color and how that is connected to our exclusion from social justice issues, namely racial, gender, and reproductive justice, as well as gun violence.

Sounds from another universe, let me take you deeper into Squamata, where I was born...

Taken from the album 'Return To Planet X'trapolis' out now on LKR Records

I had a lot of fun putting this track together over quite a long time, working in the triplet grid this track can be played perfectly in sync with either 100bpm or 150bpm tracks. The main break and some of the kick drums were created from one of my favourite ever natural sounds: the sound of a frozen lake thawing and snapping in spring time.. There are some other found sounds in there as well but it was also the first time I was able to use the clone of my favourite synths of all time the Syncussion Sy-1m.

Pictures like the one attached that belong to the 'Journal Of Experimental Biology' (https://jeb.biologists.org/) as well as BBC's ©Paul D. Stewart have been used as a huge source of inspiration along the way whilst writing the Album. I thought i'd share some of these as for this particular track they I feel they're a perfect match for the sound.

Enjoy!
