'Cloud Bound' off the forthcoming 'Ripples' EP, out this Friday on Sans Absence

Noire and Akito release their debut collaborative project, a five-track EP developed over a year and a half span of sparse studio link-ups. Working in and around the limitations of the global pandemic, the body of work draws heavily on their influences of Grime, UK Funky, Jersey Club, and more, bottlenecked and filtered through the duo’s signature sounds of heavy-hitting drum & synth patterns, designed with the dance in mind during a club-free blip.

The imprint from Turin celebrates its second birthday with Flex003, a compilation featuring ten tools from new, up-and-coming and established artists from around the globe.

Ranging from 90 to 160+ BPM, the release encompasses multiple aspects of experimental club music such as dancehall, drum’n’bass, leftfield techno and broken beats sounds.

The compilation kicks off with a bass post-club experiment of ‘Gain XP’ from Bladeblanc, which leads to the combination of broken beats and atmospherical sound design of ‘Wonder’ from AYLN. Follows ’East Wing Oslo House’, the new techno-adjacent-mutant-club contribution from Ikävä Pii, and ‘Scamming’ from Lighght with its psychedelic vocals and pitch-shifting percussions. To close off the first side of the album we find the leftfield techno of Alec Pace’s ‘Ghost Money’ with its syncopated bass and mysterious vocals. Opening the second half the compilation is Honeydrip with her new work ‘Wake the Phone’, characterised by a bouncing beat and a 90's feel, followed by ‘Sentimento’, the quirky and hypnotic interlude signed by BLCKEBY. Hassan Abou Alam then brings the listener into a distant world with his glitchy robotic tool titled ‘Freeze’. The BPM then shifts up for an explosive ending where club-driven percussive rhythmics blends with d’n’b excursions in ‘Day After the Last Day’ from Diessa and ‘Rek’ from NORA DRUM.

Flex003 is available on all platforms starting from Friday 3rd June 2022.

Level Up

If "Trax From The Back Of The Sofa" was intended to be an unleashing of the sounds of a Strange Riddims party, Vol II is a parable of the 24 hours from the doors opening, dismantling the dancefloor, and a convoy of taxis to some unfortunate volunteer's house. 

Hewn from the quarry of dubs, edits, bootlegs and originals behind the Strange doors, TFTBOTSVOL2 erratically flits between bombastic club material and candid artefacts of the after-hours sessions over the past 4 years. The compilation expands on its prequel not only in volume and breadth of sound, but also in its pervasion of the personality and atmosphere of the Strange Riddims extended family. 

Special thanks as always to all Strange ravers, the straight thru crew, and anybody outside of Manchester who has shown love, bought a track or two or turned somebody on to what we're doing. Don't be a stranger. 

With Love, 
SR X

[PREMIERE] Cash From Hash - Wrecked

Music by Le Motel (@le-motel)
Vocals & Lyrics on « Shaolin » by Magugu
Mixed by Jean Vanesse @ greenHouse Studio 
"Work Your Back" mixed by Gloom
Mastering : Sam Interface
Artwork : Antoine De Schuyter
Release date: November 27th

On ‘Pots & Pans’, Le Motel uses organic elements stacking them against stems filled with bass and drums, adding to his excellent back catalogue of self-releases and collaborative projects.

Leading with ’Azande’, the track blends UK Garage, dub techno, and jungle and features hypnotic chants from Wayo - a small village in South Sudan. In this village music is king and everyone is a master of their shared sound which summons ancient polyrhythms of Africa’s newest nation.

‘Shaolin’ is a dark dubstep production featuring Nigerian MC, Magugu. The Shaolin training teaches you how to be sharp in a dangerous environment, ‘we come in peace but ready to defend our peace’.

On the last two tracks (‘Work Your Back’ and ‘Ay Chica’), Le Motel dominates with a brilliant blend of his varying influences whilst staying true to his focus of driving drums and weighty bass.
