The 13th release on Desert Hearts Records is appropriately our most sinister EP to date and comes from up & coming LA based "weirdo house" producer, Fritz Carlton.

The first track on the EP is titled 'Doses' comes from Fritz and fellow LA based producer, Lubelski. Featuring sinister lyrics from rapper Daemon, this hip-house party anthem is so facetiously over the top it reminds us of the devil on your shoulder when you're partying at 5 in the morning. Let's be real here, we all like to get silly on the dance floor, so why do we pretend like it's not happening? Why can't we talk about these things? With a downright evil bassline and off beat snare drum patterns to accompany the lyrics, 'Doses' is sure to ruffle some feathers and murder dance floors across the world.

The title track 'T.M.K.N.' wraps up the whole vibe of the release as a grueling bassline is paired with a sinister pitched down vocal proudly announcing "That's My Kinda Night". With snare drums and tweaked out wobbles galore, we think you get to know Frtiz Carlton pretty well by the end of the EP. We think this debauchery loving weirdo is going to fit in very nicely at Desert Hearts Records.

What's Up Desert Hearts Family...

The next EP on Desert Hearts Records comes from Label Boss, Mikey Lion, along with self proclaimed sloth look-a-like and Dirtybird player, Sacha Robotti. The two first met back in 2015 while playing at Dirtybird Campout, but it wasn't until 2016 when the two of them moved to Los Angeles (Sacha from Berlin and Mikey from San Diego) did the two really hit it off. The boys soon found themselves in the studio together and the resulting EP titled "Ol' Dirty Hearts" turned out to be a monster that blends the artists' love for Hip Hop and banging Tech House. The title track is an absolute bomb that utilizes a rare, unused ODB sample to perfection. The crazed build up is matched with a grinding bass synth to bring mass hysteria to any dance floor. The B-Side titled "Flip The Joint" is a much housier bounce track that's sure to take any vibe from opening duties to full on party time. Delayed hits on a swung out bassline make this the perfect B-Side to the madness on the A-Side.

House, Techno, & Love... We Are All Desert Hearts.

Furtherset is the brainchild of Italian RBMA alum Tommaso Pandolfi. His new digital and cassette tape, ‘To Alter and Affect,’ is being released by the Zurich and Milano based -ous label and provides an intriguing listen from start to finish. “Ask Your Existential Core,” which we are premiering here, gleams with optimism, albeit coated in a slight layer of fuzz, as if viewed through the lens of a smudgy Polaroid camera. The track shows Tommaso’s gift for creating intricate musical textures and enthralling minimalist melodies.

Furtherset’s ‘To Alter and Affect’ EP is out April 27 via -ous.

'Sulfureo' is out March 29th via Hivern Discs X. Get it here:

Although he maintains a relatively low profile, UK producer Logos has spent the past decade pushing the boundaries of low-end dynamics. His latest album, set for release via the Different Circles label he runs alongside fellow bass enthusiast and frequent collaborator Mumdance, continues Logos' journey and pushes into deeper and darker territory than ever before. Entitled 'Imperial Flood,' the LP is due to arrive on April 12, but ahead of that, we debuted the cinematic melodies and pounding rhythms of "Stentorian" on Red Bull Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.

The origins of Seretan's new track "Lost In Time" stretch back to the Turkish producer's time at the 2013 Academy in New York, where he met Four Tet. "Lost In Time" blossomed out of a jam session between the two, and you can hear those traces in the track's animated shuffle of bass and field recordings. It arrives together with an accompanying music video, which serves as a tribute to Seretan's hometown of Istanbul.

After a period of relative quiet, galactic funk explorer and RBMA alum Space Dimension Controller has fully re-emerged in 2019. On the heels of his white label LP 'Redemption of the Cryonauts' that popped up a couple of months back, the Belfast producer has now returned to the seminal R&S label with a new EP. Entitled 'ReSEQ,' it's scheduled for release on April 19, and ahead of its arrival we premiered the billowing synths and squiggly basslines of "Vaults of Arcadia" on Red Bull Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.

The enigmatic Amish Boy returns to Power Vacuum next month with an EP which – once again – is not for the faint of heart. 'Nice Try Donnie!' is his second EP in just a few months for the outsider-dance label run by mischief-maker Milo Smee, AKA Bintus, and a more appropriate home surely couldn’t be found. ‘Funny Blups’ starts out monstrously misshapen, blasting out toxic gunk and unidentified foreign objects, before coagulating into a gloopy rave organism that has you trapped like a fly on sticky paper. Fans of Diagonal, EVOL and even PC Music need this in their lives; the EP’s out on May 6.
