New London-based label Sans Absence launches with the debut EP from rising North London DJ and producer Luke West. The five-track ‘OOOOO’ EP, which has picked up early support from Sound Pellegrino label boss Teki Latex and Trax Couture’s Rushmore 
amongst others, is set for digital release on 22nd January. 

Across three original tracks, West blends stripped-back, propulsive UK Funky rhythms with minimal melodies and a dark sound palette to deliver a rugged EP that is built to test the biggest of systems and light up the airwaves. The EP is completed by a pair of remixes 
from label owners Akito and D Warrior. 

The EP opens with the booming sub-bass, rattling percussion and ominous vocal chops of the titular track, kicking in to gear with swaggering Soca snares and rebounding melodies laid over a deep bassline. Up next, ‘Litework’ builds on this framework with its strippedback drums, hypnotic synth riff and low-slung bassline sculpted for maximum impact. ‘Worl’ completes the trio of original tracks with its stuttering rhythms set against echoing synth stabs and expansive pads. Label heads D Warrior and Akito round off the EP with their takes on ‘OOOOO’ and ‘Litework’ respectively; up first D Warrior reworks ‘OOOOO’ with new synth arrangements and a barrage of sharp snares, while Akito injects ‘Litework’ with his signature rhythmic energy to powerful effect. 

Sans Absence is a platform for uncompromising percussive, bass heavy and dancefloor ready club music, made available to everyone digitally.

【 Después de mostrar los lados más serios del proyecto, ROOi cierra su trilogía de “Sangre” con un ep que homenajea la provincia que lo vió crecer. Desde su lado amante del shitposting y los memes, nos trae “Sangre Fiestera” vía El Digitalazo. un EP de “memedits” como le gusta decir a él, que junta audios de WhatsApp, videos virales de YouTube, Reels y tiktoks. Cada edit está completamente llevado hacia este concepto que vienen barajando hace tiempo: “cuarteclub”, la reinterpretación del cuarteto llevado hacia la cultura de los edits de un minuto, poco amigables para un dj, pero que juega con esta sensación de diversión y humor, de la mano de armonías y percusiones cuarteteras bastante precipitadas. 】

【 After showing the most serious sides of the project, ROOi closes his “Sangre” trilogy with an ep that pays tribute to the province where he grew up. From his side that loves shitposting and memes, he brings us “Sangre Fiestera” via El Digitalazo. an EP of “memedits” as he likes to say, which brings together WhatsApp audios, viral YouTube videos, Reels and TikToks. Each edit is completely taken towards this concept that they have been considering for a long time: “cuarteclub”, the reinterpretation of the quartet taken towards the culture of one-minute edits, not very friendly for a DJ, but that plays with this feeling of fun and humor, hand in hand with rather hasty quartet harmonies and percussions. 】

SOLOCHELLA Drop It Low Love And Hoe

"Uncompromising percussive, bass heavy and dancefloor-ready club music" is the name of the game today. Step forth LDN sentinel and father of the new Sans Absence imprint, Akito. With an already strong reputation for spinning UK Funky and grime - example #1 being that Jerimih vs Wiley mash-up of yesteryear - him and D Warrior's new venture bows at the same tabernacle, albeit "with a slightly more de-saturated sound palette".

Fellow London producer, Luke West, is the first to draw blood with the OOOOO EP, which features three original tracks shouldered by remixes from the label owners. "Worl" is something of a midnight creeper; embodied by an unfussy, yet purposeful drum foundation and brass horn pumps that periodically fly by like road lights on a nocturnal drive.

SANS01 lands on January 22 2016.
