Dublin’s Woozy label premieres on wax with Radial, the debut EP from newcomer Coe (@djcoefroms11). 3 dubstep-informed club weapons b/w a percussive rework from Or:la (@orla_cd).

The title track recalibrates mid-noughties FWD> pressure, suspending us in an E-licked smog before puncturing the rave-lry with thrusting bass stomps and fervorous IDM-adjacent drums for an electro-id crazed stomper. Say (KL Tribute) flexes Coe’s wub mechanics, presenting computerised sound chaos before dropping a half-step hungry wobble fest, mounting the pressure on the ‘floor to a near combustible, skanking peak.

On the flip, 403 slightens the pace for a chugging techno/electro zinger with a faint dembow shell, sounding like the soundtrack to a sinister salsa dance. Or:la’s drum-tastic Radial rework sees us out, conducting an orchestra of percussive pistons akin to a ravey engine room for a mid-tempo grooving killer.

Egyptian artist Hassan Abou Alam delivers the 4-track EP Ice, glistening with unusual textures that glide through several soundscapes spanning techno, breaks, bass and unclassifiable noise.

Things get spooky on ‘Hollow In C#’ as Hassan pairs a reverb-heavy vocal with chugging drums and eerie pads, echoing his mental and physical state during quarantine last year. Freaky but fierce.

Hassan Abou Alam has spent the last decade exploring disparate sound palettes and genres, from breaks to techno to bass. Today, his curiosity is unwavering. Hassan produces music using a hybrid setup of analog and digital instruments, conveying organised but compelling chaos that’s won him legions of fans worldwide.

RENT001: this is the first in a series of one-off tracks from Mosca.

The Optics was the A-side to my forthcoming release on Whities / AD93 but finding a suitable B-side was getting long, and I wanted this to be available sooner rather than later as I've got ppl asking about it. There's only so long you can keep a track with a baby crying in it back from the masses

Clemency presents References (Remixed) - three re-interpretations of her debut EP by Perko, Boofy and Jennifer Walton. 

Each remix builds on the sparse dissonant sounds of Clemency’s original production into three heavyweight soundsystem workouts. 

Perko works ‘Testimony’ into a wriggling, hypnotic drum workout; 
Boofy leans into ‘Biblical Names’’ subby rhythmic momentum; 
Jennifer Walton pairs ‘Mimic Animals That Are Easy to Love’s menacing sirens with apocalyptic 303s and unforgiving percussion. 

References was originally released with a collection of Clemency’s own personal references - including poetry, fiction, coordinates and cosmetics - that inspired the record. References (Remixed) comes with new references from each remixer to accompany their interpretations.

Founded by Slacker and Sam PW, Pseudonym Records is a new label ‘focused on the ethereal, twisted and broken fringes of UK-indebted dance music’ and will make his first stamp with a multi-artist release next month, ‘Corporeal Vol. 1’. Giving us a little taste of what’s to come, Slacker contributes a chugging acid-tinged track ‘Active Dreams’, stepping away from the previous ambient and high NRG jungle records. Another excellent production from the animated artist.

@cleyraa comes with an absolute banger on the new Timedance compilation Sharpen, Moving.

Cleyra - Shafted

Club Night Club is proud to announce its first release via Manchester based Herron, who delivers four diverse excursions aimed squarely at the dancefloor. 

On the A1, Dead Frogs Down, ethereal vocals are submerged and held captive by the molten, stumbling textures which give them form, they rise out of the chaos every now and then, breathing life into a soundscape of club ready punches and kicks. The result is a punishing five minutes of peak time breaks with a delicate undertone floating in between. 

Velcro Spider, true to its name, weaves a similar blend of the synthetic and heartfelt. A stumbling, low slung groove mutates over the course of the track, quietly building and sustaining a tension the listener is unaware of until all hell breaks loose in true drug chug fashion at the halfway point. 

The B side similarly advances this fusion of midtempo tension.  

Noroveerno is a head bobber, the double time kicks coming like a heartbeat. There is a sense of purpose to the unrestrained impacts that pump and push the sound design heavy, Sludge-Techno forwards. A simple, distorted vocal sample: “Do I Want?” is peppered amongst the chaos, presenting as a rhythmic element which contributes to the track’s flow rather than diverging from it. The inflection gives the impression that this is a question to which the artist already knows his answer. 

Closing things out on the B side is IWillTry2d0, a dystopian piece that has a tensible core of thick and hearty synth pulses. Evocative of the Toulouse Low Trax breed of intentional, ambiguous chug, but in keeping with the rest of the record smothered in impact and delay. Like the others, it has a percussive outer shell which protects something emotional and questioning at its root.
