fuckin chooooowwwwwnnn, I love it, not even foolishly nostalgic!!

Fantastic ep, would love to hear the "Metamorphic (Violet Remix)" in full please:)

Deep In Dis Intl. is back with another killer release, this time by Brazilian sound system culture precursor Rassan and his Don't Hesitate EP. It Includes a remix by UK's rising DJ Producer Bailey Ibbs.
It is widely known by now that the Brazilian electronic music scene is one of the fastest growing and its artists are gradually developing a unique style with a strong international influence. 
Rassan, co-founder of the Nice & Deadly record label is a promising talent, making noise with his 90’s raver influenced productions. 
A1. ‘Don’t Hesitate’ is like stepping into a time machine. Nostalgic piano riffs, classic breakbeats and catchy vocal samples. Perfect summer anthem.
A2. 'Rota De Fuga' is one of those tracks that can really transport you just by closing your eyes. It has a darker, trippy and speedier vibe that stimulates and submerges you deeper into the night.
Flipping the record, B1 is just a perfect example of Bailey's dynamic skills to program beats, adding some quirky sounds, an infectious electro pattern and a super deep breakdown. Robot dance style for this one!
B2.  'Bury The Hatchet' closes this wicked EP with a sublime energy. Proper deep jungle vibes. 
Four special tracks for any special moment of the party.

Rassan - Don't Hesitate EP, incl. Bailey Ibbs Remix [DIDWAX002]

Shetlands raised, Malmö based producer Bolam has been building quite the reputation for himself with his exciting blend of future-facing UK techno, breakbeat, jungle and electro. Following a release on London’s Control Freak Recordings, Breaks ‘N’ Pieces welcomes the emerging artist to the roster with the Thunderclap EP.

The title track ‘Thunderclap’ is a left-field leaning blend of experimental electronics, pace-building techno and large breaks, all tied together under an umbrella of hair-raising atmospherics designed to excite and alarm. ‘Hype Shifter’ makes playful use of grimey textures and tones as this subby cut of breakbeat ventures deep into the underground with elements of Baltimore club.

‘Indecipherable’ is self-descriptive; a mutated electro cut that lends from a large pool of sub-genre to create something totally unique. Wait for the vocals after the halfway point, here Bolam has crafted one of the most exciting crossover tracks of the year. Closing out the EP is TRULE bossman and man of the hour Al Wootton. The artist formerly known as Deadboy turns in a typically bassy, stripped back breaks remix of ‘Hype Shifter’ - one that should be going straight in any UK sound heads cart.

Tracklist:
A1. I.M.O.K. R.U.O.K.
A2. I.M.O.K. R.U.O.K. (Or:la Remix)
B1. 12,000 Ravers

Spray enters the world, emerging with a mystically prophesied reissue from Dimension 23, the intended deliverance in 2020 a perfect 23 years after its original release in 1997. The duo, Rich and Julie, were pioneers of the LA rave scene, traversing the West Coast throughout the ‘90s - not to mention colluding with Sven Väth’s like-minded trailblazing Harthouse. The reiteration of this music today feels more relevant than ever; the compellingly raw and authentic energy desperately desired as we emerge back into club and festival spaces.

Formally released on Fuzzy Logik, The A1 “I.M.O.K. R.U.O.K.” was first written in a mere 30 minutes as a live jam and recorded straight to DAT; rough, ready and destined for the rave. Brace yourself for freaked abrasive textures that dip and soar in a sharp contrast to the rich rolling bassline, propelling the track forward into delicious repetition. Additionally, the militant rim-driven percussion and drums come locked and loaded, proper ammunition for any hot and heavy dancefloor.

Tying the anthem into further contemporary context comes a remix from Or:la, slowing the groove and shaking up the rhythm for a more sexy low-slung affair. BYO percussion and breaks, it draws upon the subtle sensual breathy vocals and delicate harmonic moments, adding a different kind of heat to the release.

Rounding out the record comes a B side blowout, originally unleashed on Harthouse, “12,000 Ravers” truly evokes the imagery laid out in its title. The rapturous outbreak takes no prisoners, with all the tried and tested crucial ingredients. The thundering kick unapologetically galloping over yet another sublime bassline, whilst breakbeats ricochet effortlessly to leave space for melodic nuance, swirling synths and soft-spirited arpeggiators. This six-minute rave hymn proves a powerful contribution to the overall release; setting the tone for Spray with an historical nod to our past and how it influences our future, the generational gap feeling like a mere blip in time.

Dimension 23 - '23 Years Later' (Incl. Or:la Remix) [SPRAY001]

The first vinyl release from s2i Recordings introduces Fader Cap (previously Sedgwick). An existential trip across 3 tracks recorded in one 12 hour session, with the source material written for live-performance in early 2021. Heavy on the 303, with rhythmic propulsion for the breaks-inclined heads. Tinged with heavy nostalgia for the atmosphere of DIY sound systems in the Australian bush.

Arís (pronounced: ah-reesh) presents the first in a new series of 90’s/early 00’s Irish Dance reissues with ARIS01; 2 remastered tracks from Bumble’s 1992 EP ‘West In Motion’ b/w a new remix from Brame & Hamo.

To honour this important record on its 30th anniversary, we have remastered 2 tracks from the original EP and invited one of West Ireland’s greatest exports Brame & Hamo to remix it; their pumping proggy take, a fitting complement to the spirit of that original era. Revisiting West In Motion after all these years helps highlight how crucial it is to the canon of modern Irish music, and will hopefully help introduce Bumble to a whole new generation as a result.

When Fred sent me the demos for his first release I remember being compelled to shut off all the lights and listen to them in complete darkness at full volume. I’m not sure why his music makes me want to do that but when he sent me this next batch I found myself needing to repeat the same process.

Who You Would Have Been goes down in history as the track that I have listened to the most out of any song on the labels. I am impelled over and over to return to this track, turn the volume up in my headphones, close my eyes and tuck into the experience. I think it is because it manages to accomplish something which I so rarely hear done effectively in dance floor music and that is to imbue it with a real sense of emotion. I know you always read interviews where producers talk about how their latest album was inspired by their latest break up or parent’s divorce but to be honest I can almost never hear that in the music. That could be just my own way of listening for sure but one thing I can say for certain is that I personally can very much hear the feeling in this track and I just love it because of that.

I’m not going to write an entire essay on each track as I doubt anyone is interested in that. I will just say that my love for this EP stretches far beyond the first track. There is wide breadth of sound and feeling explored throughout and it is an EP that will be loved and adored not only on the dance floor but also when listening on your own.

OK enough of my blather. Go and listen to the damn things yourself and decide if you like them, rather than trying to work it out from reading a bloody press release you weirdos. 

All four tracks are produced and sculpted for the club. They want big sound systems and dark rooms. 

Close your eyes, hold hands and experience transcendental space flight...

Die Orakel long time collaborator @edward gracefully reappears with a three track emission called Time Stretch. Edward’s appliance of the titular technique is not restricted to various sonic elements at all, as it extends to the tracks’ mental notes and their trajectories beyond the digital realm. 

Time Stretch fills the entire side A with vibrant sonic elements, a warm bassline along an eerie pad, all on top of a straight and punchy bass drum. La Grotta’s signature melody, plus chirps and cowbells, inject a slight touch of exotica to the musical meta-data, while time stretch artefacts refer back to a befittingly themed EP. Finally, the undercurrents of Black Sea evolve along a modulated melodic pad, a pulsating bass and beat structure, and a light 90s IDM morse figure on top of frequency sweeps.

A: Time Stretch [12:30min]
B1: La Grotta [6:26min]
B2: Black Sea [8:07min]

Our most emotive record to date... 3 years in the making, our 15th release on the label comprises five evocative, glossy cuts produced by an incredibly talented artist and very good friend of ours; Wyatt (@jwyatt). His ‘Netherwood’ EP is a time capsule back to his hometown Norwich, turning memories into alchemical moments, a sensory voyage of stripped-back breakbeat, travel intercom samples and ear-worm melodies. 

This record is an indefinable sculpture of synth melodies nestled between weightless ambient, a shadow-cast realm of melancholy and introversion, joining the hands of broken beat and synth lines into a melodic collaboration, drunk on its private thoughts. 

Sometimes, existential introspection happens through external movement. ‘Netherwood’ is a catalyst for those epiphanies.
