Natural Element unveils the long-awaited double LP from Amsterdam producer Kid Sublim here. It was created during the pandemic and Turbulence sessions with Beka Gochiashvili and Mishulino and marks a new chapter in Kid Sublime’s evolution. Influenced by London’s broken beat scene and the spirit of the late Phil Asher, it blends house, bruk and techno with his signature soul and warmth. Featuring Oliver Night, Natalie Slade and Han Litz, this is a heartfelt offering that heads through love, spirituality and human connection while balancing introspection and dancefloor clout. A fine return.

Hara Katsiki "Cabaret Galactic" Episode #1 (Dream Chimney Radio)

Frankfurt’s melodic mastermind Lauer is back, and this time he’s landing straight on Italo Moderni with a brand-new 4-track vinyl heater titled Smack is the Message. Known for blending deep-house warmth, 80s italo sparkle, and synth-driven nostalgia, Lauer once again proves why his sound hits that sweet spot between dreamy and dance-ready.

PREMIERE : Lauer - Smack Is The Message

Having previously released selected retrospectives focused on the musical output of Ryo Kawasaki and Joan Bibiloni, NuNorthern Soul has now turned its attention to the vast back catalogue of Jasper Van’t Hof’s pioneering electro-acoustic, Afro-fusion collective, ‘Pili Pili’. Best known to Balearic DJs and listeners for the epic title track from 1984 debut album ‘Pili Pili’ – a track reissued by NuNorthern Soul in 2024 with a fresh re-edit by label regulars Coyote – the European-African collective became world-renowned not just for the unique, cross-cultural sound of their songs and instrumentals, but also the dynamism of their freewheeling, partly improvised live performances.

The band was established in 1984 by Van’t Hof, a Dutch pianist who began his career in Europe’s jazz scene of the late 1960s, as a way of combining his love of jazz-fusion and the music of North-West Africa. Van’t Hof already had a reputation for combining roles in traditional jazz combos with more experimental and abstract projects. These included a spell in violinist Jean-Luc Ponty’s first band, years spent masterminding the jazz-rock outfit called Jasper Van’t Hof’s Porkpie, the recording of an all-electronic album (1982’s Visitors), and a celebrated collaborative live album with the great Archie Shepp, Mama Rose. ‘Pili Pili’, though, was another step forward for Van’t Hof. Working with percussionists and vocalists from Benin and Mali (including the now legendary Angelique Kidou) and a string of adventurous jazz soloists (saxophonist Tony Lakoto and trumpeter Annie Whitehead included), Van’t Hof’s collective frequently combined live and programmed percussion, electronic and acoustic instrumentation, and the talented improvisor’s own memorable melodies and impactful solos.

NuNorthern Soul’s retrospective focuses on the most productive and celebrated period of ‘Pili Pili’s near three-decade history, showcasing tracks originally recorded and released on studio albums released between 1984 and 2002. The six tracks on show offer an essential glimpse into the musical gold to be found across the ‘Pili Pili’ catalogue. It begins with the infectious energy and restless percussion of ‘Ile’, an Afro-fusion-meets-electro-rock masterpiece from the band’s 1984 debut, and ends with the ultra-deep bass, gentle acoustic guitars, colourful synths and melodious kalimba sounds of 2002’s ‘Soubatcha’. In between, you’ll find the synth-pop-infused, electric guitar-sporting joy of ‘Jakko Jakko’ (1987), the stripped-back and drum focused ‘Life Size’ (also 1987), the jaunty bliss of ‘Hippo Hips’ (1992), and the cowbell-powered Afro-jazz-fusion brilliance of 1985’s ‘My Gongoma’.

In keeping with NuNorthern Soul’s previous retrospectives, the vinyl version of ‘Selected Works 1984-2002’ comes with extended liner notes telling the remarkable story of this most unusual of cross-cultural collaborations. These feature extensive quotes, reflections and memories from Jasper Van’t Hof and were written by music historian Matt Anniss. Artwork by Chris Maude.

Feed Your Head Guest Mix: Rude Audio

Swedish DJ, producer and songwriter Johan Blende debuts on Hell Yeah with a journey to the heart of a grown-up dancefloor in the Med.

Blende is a master of mixing up retro 70s and 80s sound into modern dancefloor delights. He's been doing it for two decades on a wide range of cultured labels from Studio Barnhus to Eskimo, always with a rare charm and leftfield perceptive. With this EP, he taps into the magic of hazy afternoons turning into euphoric evenings by the sea.

'Off To Mallorca' jangles with taught bass notes and sunburnt vocals. Distant synths glow, the jumbled percussion injects just the right dose of ass-wiggling funk and this playful yet sophisticated cut builds toward a blissful rapture. 'Television' ups the ante with prickly acid panning about the mix over sleazy, low-slung drums. Tension simmers as edgy synth motifs stalk the groove and anticipation builds before the whole thing explodes into a cosmic disco payoff. It's raw, unpredictable, and perfect for when things start to get a little weird.

'Como No Brasil' gazes skyward and basks in a wash of shimmering melodies and breezy, wordless vocals that drift like clouds over layered, sun-drenched rhythms. It’s a dreamy, tropical float until a surprise acid storm rolls in and moves things from tranquil paradise to dancefloor hypnosis. Finally, 'Carousel Bagatelle' is a layered, late-night trip that feels both playful and introspective. Hypnotic synths swirl around screwy acid lines and supple, dubbed-out house drums that spin you into a daze.

Blende’s debut on Hell Yeah lands like a postcard from a perfect party - sun-dazed, acid-kissed and endlessly replayable.
