Out now on Bandcamp - https://samuraimusic.bandcamp.com/album/samurai-outliers-006

We introduce an all new artist with the latest edition of the Samurai Outliers series. Eyes of Ibad is a close associate of Torn and we’re happy to offer up his first four released tunes, inaugurating his own low slung creeping sound capped off with a searing collab with Torn.

Two of these tunes were first heard on last year’s Presha set for Hör and have been much requested since. Nows the time!

Taken from Eusbebeia & Aisatsaana - Transformation [SMDE43]

Released on 12" and Digital - http://sq.lnk.to/SMDE43_

Eusebeia and Aisatsaana are a duo with a shared creative perspective and approach. The Transformation EP produces a textural adjustment, a glistening, psychedelic sheen sprinkled over the tempered kick/break/bass combos. It’s a perfect EP that smoothly traverses lush mood waves.

Released on White or Black 12" and Digital - https://voidvinyl.eu/products/the-untouchables-onward-forward

Brussels residents The Untouchables return to Samurai for their fifth full release for the label.

While working on their next full length LP for Samurai, a cluster of tunes began surfacing where their inherent dub flavourings had become the dominant characteristic of the tune. Such was the infectious power of these rhythms, it became apparent a full EP of this sound was presenting itself organically. Onward Forward is the EP The Untouchables have always needed to make - a release that will leave an indelible mark on the year. We’re delighted that Samurai is the imprint that releases the EP to kick off our summer 2024 collection.

The Untouchables - Onward Forward [SMDE44] *previews*

alphacut sets off into brushy tribal jungle


post morphem ep 
by rude operator, rainforest, paradox effects & dreadmaul

the early 2010s have been a prosperous era for a lotta fast dance and bass music. dubstep's magic was fading due to brosounds taking over but the idea of some fresh air inbetween drums and basslines was thankfully carried on into the jungles too. not only halftime but also tribal beats grew strong, whether it being in warm dubby or cold darker reincarnations. 
speaking of living on, this plate is not only a sequel to that era but also a tribute to the one like morphy, who brought dubby tribal brushy jungle onto alphacut around that time. it light up a spark to head for new territories, its soul is vibing on in 45seven and especially in this new alphacut - post morphem!

rude operator are opening with a minimal dancehall feel, wriggling from 8bar to 8bar, switching tensions with patterns with a slice of footwork dna inside - zero chances to freeze!
rainforest is stepping on with enlightning skanks and mystic basses under a riddim one simply can't escape as well. 
paradox effects is not only flipping sides but vibes pretty much too. keeping it tribal and one-seventy but much darker with an amen from the vaults in a bunker-conrete jungle - the raw and free sound of leipzig.
dreadmaul is closing with a masterpiece which could have been executed by the homaged dubbing don himself. moody pads meet distant dub sirens and robotic amen leftovers step up into a hypnotising groove, taking you back down in the woods.

we are happy to be back with a solid round-up package which should never leave your tribal crates again, zooom!
