Anjunabeats stalwart Graeme Shepherd, aka Grum, releases his fourth artist album, ‘Unreality’. Out now.

‘Unreality’ is his most reflective work to date, putting human connection in the digital age under the microscope. A story in two halves, the album is introspective, ideas-driven and song-heavy, holding a mirror to Graeme’s own emotional journey over the last two years.

The visceral nature of Graeme’s work has been present since his debut LP ‘Heartbeats’. A feel-good, get up and dance record championed by Annie Mac and Pete Tong in the early 2010s, Grum was a product of the blog era, riding the heights of Hype Machine with his synth-heavy sound. As he pivoted towards the dance floor, both his sound and the stories he wanted to tell became more daring.

‘Shout’, his cover of the Tears For Fears classic, was a prog house protest anthem that foreshadowed 2019’s ‘Deep State’ LP - an underground epic with an undercurrent of discontent, evident in the acid-tinged ‘Stay’, Depeche Mode-esque ‘Lose Control’ or hypnotic ‘Altered State’. 'Deep State' eventually spawned his own record label of the same name which has gone from strength to strength in recent years.

On his new album 'Unreality', there’s an undeniable summer euphoria to ‘Don’t Look Down’ and ‘Taking Over Me’, written alongside regular collaborator Natalie Shay, a rising star of the U.K. indie-pop scene. ‘Faded Memory’ and ‘Come Alive’, both featuring Sarah Appel, are a synth-heavy shot of adrenalin, channelling the glossy optimism of 1980s pop in a punchy contemporary production.

Another recognisable voice, Dom Youdan, enters the fold. Having previously worked with Grum on Tomorrow’ and ‘Invisible’, there’s a tangible yearning for deeper human connection in ‘Be The Horizon’ and ‘Virtual Companion’. Lead single ‘Disconnected’, featuring Daniel Sealine, is designed for the darkest corners of a club; a techno-infused helter-skelter ride with Daniel’s vocal bursting out of the shadows.

We close with a moment of hope in ‘Look To The Light’, Graeme’s first vocal performance on a record, and the introspective acceptance of ‘Our Cosmic Insignificance’.

Grum’s ‘Unreality’ is out now on Anjunabeats, with vinyl available to pre-order on the Anjuna Music Store now. Grum embarks on phase one of his ‘Unreality’ tour this summer, including 18 dates across North America with shows in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Toronto and more, plus a stop off at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy Weekender London festival this September.

The past 12 months has positioned Luke Brancaccio & Simon Berry as one of the most exhilarating new collaborative projects around. Having unveiled two vital, critically acclaimed releases on Bedrock Oblivion (BEDDIGI107) and Close Your Eyes (BEDDIGI120) this highly experienced duo now conclude an exceptional creative year with yet another towering production, I Hear This. Their third, highly accomplished package is completed with a stunning remix courtesy of Yotto.

A trademark of the Brancaccio and Berry partnership is their innate ability to blur any out-dated notions of separation between style and genre. The pulsating, hissing throb of I Hear This skilfully joins the past to the future, cleverly marrying sophisticated melodic motifs with equally hypnotic looped vocal elements, soaring high and diving deep, blending a diverse and original creative palette across 9 minutes of mesmerising electronic wonderment.

Finlands Yotto (Anjunadeep) has an unbounded ability to create joyously mesmerizing house music, and his monstrously energetic interpretation of I Hear This is a perfect complement to the original. Utilising a more linear approach, Yotto sprinkles his dynamic magic dust onto proceedings to dazzling effect and it is no wonder that his musical creations are so admired and sought after worldwide.

Jan Dalvik is a familiar name to electronic music's elite. For more than 25 years, he’s collaborated with the genre’s top acts. But since summer 2017, the German has put focus squarely on solo productions. Following releases on Great Stuff Recordings, The Purr Music and his own Romantica Records, “Mahat” enters progressive territory. The single's blend of heavy grooves and analog synths makes for ready-made remixes. Thus, Parallel Universe returns to Clubsonica Records for a third time. The duo, comprised of Ethereal Mist and Mauro Pierotti, last appeared in August. Invoking comparable rhythm, percussion and detail, they deliver another seamless track.

Josh Wink joins Ellum Audio for a stellar new single backed with a remix from DJ Seinfeld.

Josh Wink needs little introduction to fans, or even occasional listeners to dance music. The American DJ and producer has been one of the most enduring figures in the scene with a catalogue of music on labels like R&S, Strictly Rhythm, Nervous, Pokerflat, M- Nus and of course his own long standing Ovum Recordings imprint. As a DJ, he has travelled the globe since the mid-nineties, headlining festivals and clubs wherever he goes. What he has never done in his almost 30-year career is ever lose touch with the roots of underground dance music, something he demonstrates once again here with a standout new single.

‘Feel’ is classic Josh Wink, near eight minutes of pacey, hypnotic dancefloor wonderment fuelled by syncopated percussion and arpeggiated bass which builds the tension before a spacious drop and meditative, spoken word vocal take the reins. Timeless and heartfelt this is a gem from the Philadelphia legend.

Remix duties fall to Sweden’s DJ Seinfeld, the lo-fi house pioneer and Young Ethics label boss who chops things up with a warped bassline, wonky FX and dancing synth lines to bring a brilliant alternative to the table.

For the second VA EP, Nora En Pure introduces a diverse three-track compilation to Purified Records. Opening the EP on an uplifting note, Chris Luno’s ’The Ride’ infuses electro synths and a captivating vocal to create an addictive cut that will leave listeners wanting more. Discognition devises an atmospheric soundscape with ‘Almost There’ by combining an airy vocal, delicate piano chords and an uplifting bassline, resulting in a slice of sonic bliss.
