Akumen (he/him) is an LA producer, DJ and co-founder of Made to Move, a monthly event and livestream radio show, featuring DJs from Southern California and abroad. Working at his home studio, Akumen produces atmospheric, breaky and lush cuts to high octane, full -on rave tracks. 

This EP draws on the idea that hearing something or being repeatedly exposed to something can lead you to believe it. Currently, we are experiencing one of the largest examples of the validity effect, where non-factual claims and conspiracy theories have risen to mainstream conversion simply because of repetition. Validity Effect uses the same instrumentation, drums and even 303 sequencing. The first track and last tracks of the album are very different but ultimately are a repetition of the same sounds used in a sonic variation.

B2. Sweat Ur Prayers (Lawrence Lee Remix)


@byronyeates @eoindj @ruinxxx @lawrencelee

Sweat Ur Prayers, the next wavy addition to Radiant Love’s catalogue, is the first solo-EP of Byron Yeates. In their messaging, their timbres and grooves, the 4 tracks speak faithfully to Yeates’ inclinations as a DJ and label-head: the playfulness and buoyancy, a constant nod to the roots of rave, and a faith in dance music’s transformative power.

Opening the release is the title track, a bubbling and breakbeat-laden 8 minutes. Mantric repetition is a running theme throughout the EP, and we hear “Raindrops falling all around, freeing me from other sounds; trickling down my weary eyes, bringing me back, I’m ready to fly” as an opening salvo. Yeates’ is known for his vast, enduring DJ sets, inducing sheens of sweat from all involved – with these tracks, it’s clear he’s unafraid to take his time to build tension as a producer as well. The percussive conversation between hi-hat and snare complexifies until a clap enters near the 2 minute mark and suddenly we’re in the main, driving groove.

“Waves” is a dial-back to downtempo, floatation and introspection. The dancer and writer Gabrielle Roth is sampled, speaking on her 5 Rhythms movement meditation technique – the term “sweat your prayers” comes from her texts on ecstatic physicality. The track shimmers and sways in bright pads and delayed-out drum breaks, setting the reflective tone for “Dreaming is Essential”, co-produced by Eoin DJ. Opening with Radiant Love co-founder Ruin, her candid vocals are perfectly aligned for the dancefloor’s vulnerability: “What am I avoiding? I wish I could hold myself, like the dance holds me.” The track unfolds through layers of percussion and shadowy texture, taking a pivot to optimism halfway through, as a warm synth-line accompanies Ruin’s repetition: “Dreaming is essential.”

Lawrence Lee’s remix of “Sweat Ur Prayers” adapts the bounce of the original’s bassline to a classic, stabby rave synth. Again there is a percussive focus, but force and warmth are foregrounded, rather than polyrhythm – a shot, rather than a spritz. We hear again the opening mantra, and although “I’m ready to fly” may seem in opposition to Ruin’s “Let the dance hold me”, Sweat Ur Prayers seems to say they are one in the same movement.

BYRON YEATES - SWEAT UR PRAYERS

The truest Freaks Of Nature, Sleep D, are following up their hot ‘n’ heavy “F.O.N” series with Vol. 2; rammed start to finish with juiced up club exhilarations - you can’t afford to miss this. 

Australia’s notoriously prolific duo are celebrating all things bass, the 3 tech-tinged party starters are a force to be reckoned with, an official warning of high voltage (and speed). Welcoming back Butter Sessions alumni Ivy Barkakati & Furious Frank, the sun kissed acid anthem Ahora Sí metamorphosizes into a peak-time prog punisher Border Control where sensual whispers weave their way through a slick sexy drum maze, a darker rendition merging past, present and futuristic fantasies. Post Pump elevates tech house to immaculate status, undeniable deep groove unlocked through their signature bump and bounce; a combination of wild A side audio energies finding their home on freaky finale Bass’d In Berlin. Close your eyes, strap in and surrender control, Sleep D once again showcasing what they do best; modern dance from down under.

The bermuda triangle of Berlin; a meeting of medicinal minds for the inaugural splitstep. Byron Yeates, Roza Terenzi & D, Tiffany come Tag-teaming and steaming with licks of flirty tech, hard house, pumping prog and sleek, freaky techno bouncing off the walls. A true melting pot of deeply burrowed memories of dance, the trio collaborate in various ways to propel a new age wave of dance music; a delicious mix of rough, tough and playfully feminine which embodies Step Ball Chain. 
Cheers queers!

Gushing all over the A Side with a funk force of tech house, Roza Terenzi sticks her heels in and locks down The Groove™ like no other, reduced tempo for the calm before the storm. Warming up the original just in time for the Byron Yeates remix; providing a stripped back, sped up, jacking rendition of Gush served hot and heavy. Bouncing into the B side, Byron causes the heat to rise to the top, Cauldron of Chaos simmering and ready to blow, use with caution. Rounding out this seriously hot record is Roza & D. Tiff with a tech leaning team up, Prude Pride hitting all the right spots for a manifested meltdown. 

4 Club certified hitz, guaranteed to make you sweat. Don’t you dare sleep!

From its beginnings as a reissue label, @sprayforever has always been guided by an insatiable appetite for proggy dance music. If excavating long-forgotten gems weren’t enough though, the Irishman behind it all emerged from the fever dream that was lockdown a fully-realised producer/DJ entity. Also taking the name for his alias, Spray comes forth with a typically fractal offering. 

Insistent throb and propulsive, direct drive underpin the A-side. Where ’VT Trad’ opts for nebulous, cosmic detail and shadowy flex, ‘Q3projz’ surfaces a more utopian take on the blueprint. 

‘Zippycher’ then comes flush with wide-eyed radiance; a buoyant, lysergic rite primed for collective physical experience. ‘Slipped’, on the other hand, recalls early ‘90s Art Of Trance while sidestepping revivalist tags. Proper third portal business.

Premiere: Tywi - Reality Checkpoint (Maruwa Remix) [Duality Trax]

Welcome to the captivating universe of 'Farming The Metaverse,' the latest musical adventure from J.deere 420. This EP marks the beginning of a quest to sow melodies in the wild lands of virtual universes.

The EP opens with a melancholic experience in 'Did I Miss You?'. This track shaped for closing mix pays homage to J.Deere 420's first EP at DLZ Records, with a nod to the track 'Why U Left.' The emotional break accentuates the melancholy, offering a poignant conclusion.

'Tasteless Turbo Tool' immerses the listener in a deep atmosphere through its pads, reflecting the majesty of the ocean and the power of the waves off the shores of Ouessant. This bouncy track, rich in drums, is ideal for peak time.

The harvest concludes with 'Left Like No One,' exploring the complexity of UK elements and the hypnotism of trance. The first part, full of energy with a powerful break and impactful bass, gives way to a second, more trance-oriented part with its vocal gate.

The project is complemented by 2 tracks skillfully remixed by Jeku and Cosmic G.
