Lime After Lime

Massacooramaan returns to Fade To Mind for another EP of distorted club tropes and personal expression. Opening cut 'Batwings' sets the tone - murky electronics, the dense fug of paranoia only lifts when system culture rears its head.

Roll The Dice presents `Elevate´, the third release in their collaborative series Assimilarity.
This time the Dice have teamed up with vocalist extraordinaire Glasser, which takes them into new sonic territories.
”We were really curious to explore the world of vocals, as this is an area we have never tapped into before.
However we did not want to just slap a vocal on top of a track, but rather try to dig deeper, to make the music and vocals sound as a whole. Let the vocals be part of the machine so to speak. We could not imagine anyone more adept than Glasser to guide us into this uncharted territory."
To complete the collaborative narrative, London based artist Fabio Almeida has provided yet another stunning piece of art for the cover, this time named
Click Clack.

Roll The Dice & Glasser - Elevate

For its seventh release, Obscura - the thriving label of Italian trio Agents Of Time - returns to the compilation format to welcome exciting new talents and core label acts. 

‘East Coast’, the Agents Of Time track which opens the release, is at once tough and atmospheric, with delicate pads suspended above the rugged, syncopated rhythm. London Modular Alliance complete the A-side with an organic jam of bleeps, bass and crisp percussion. Next, Australian Jensen Interceptor contributes a fresh cut of rapid-fire electro which leads neatly into the sci-fi tones of ‘Welcome To My World’ by newcomer Golden Virgo. 

Following a full EP on Obscura earlier this year, Hiver is back with the elastic bassline and dreamy arpeggios of ‘Stasys’. Orbe, a remixer on Hiver’s EP, impresses with ‘Never Comes’, a similarly restrained and endlessly detailed journey through the depths. 

The final side is split between Laguna and Kris Wadsworth. The former tunnels further into the hypnotic side of Obscura’s sound whilst Wadsworth’s crunchy, Detroit techno ends the release on a high. With ‘From Sound To Silence 2’, Agents Of Time have compiled eight, stand-out tracks to explore the full range of their dancefloor sensibilities.

[0BSM007] B1. Jensen Interceptor - Manix

Hotflush presents a ten-track album of previously unheard music produced by Scuba during the early part of the five-year run of his legendary SUB:STANCE party at Berghain. From July 2008, SUB:STANCE opened the Berlin institution up to a new set of aesthetics, sparking a conversation between UK artists and Germany's most vibrant music centre. The party eventually spread further afield, with a residency in New York and showcases held around the world, before coming to a considered end with a final party at Berghain and Panorama Bar in July 2013, exactly five years after the first edition. On SUB:STANCE in Retrograde, Scuba cultivates the sonic aesthetic established in the UK in the incubative period of dubstep, whilst incorporating the fruits of an exploration of textures, drum patterns and acoustics. Consisting entirely of unreleased music which has spent almost a decade on undisturbed hard drives, SUB:STANCE in Retrograde reflects a period of growth for Scuba, documenting an exchange of ideas that continues to unfold to this day.

Posthuman - Polywater Acid [CKNOWEP13]

As the dust still settles on his and his band's immensely detailed and provocative audio/visual album ‘Human’, and crowds around the world still recover from their legendary Henry Saiz & Band live shows, it’s safe to say that 2018 has been Henry Saiz’s most accomplished and creatively fulfilling year to date. If this remarkable return to Sasha’s Last Night On Earth is anything to go by, 2019 will be just as exciting...

Fittingly entitled ‘A Walk Through The Haze’, Henry’s first tracks on the label since 2015instantly summon the highly cosmic, utterly enveloping signature that secured him such a sweet spot in the first place.

Emotional, unpredictable and splashed with powerful tones and colours; on each cut there’s a clear point where you think you’ll know where he’s going before boom: he takes a sudden turn and brings on a completely different trip. The stunningly mind melting breakdown of ‘Claustrum’, the darker, rolling technoid textures on the payoff of ‘The Arch' and finally the sudden island-bound ripples that flutter out of the gurgling bass on the finale ‘The Hunt’ are just three examples...

Detailed, provocative, creatively fulfilling... Saiz really is in his own lane right now.
