🪩 About the EP release 🪩
“Stay Soft” is the result of Berlin based DJ and producer, Sarah Farina, seeking the identity of a voice she loved on one of her favourite songs (Freak Like Me by DJ Deeon), only to discover the name wasn’t listed. Not on the version she was playing, or any of the 27+ remixes released in the past 28 years.

And so Farina, an artist on a mission to spread “Rainbow Bass”, a self-coined term for the colourful, uplifting musical energy she emanates with her diverse selections, was determined to find the artist that has never been credited. Sarah’s hope to find and work with the beautiful voice unintentionally became the story of another forgotten, overlooked Black femme vocalist.

@TishBailey is a Chicago singer, songwriter & rapper, who’s voice & lyrics have been streamed 75+ million times since the release of the 1996 Dance Mania club anthem Freak Like Me by DJ Deeon (Rest in Power):

“Though few know my name or have seen my face, I know I've brought a lil spicy joy to countless people. That's my life's purpose so despite any downside, I humbly appreciate the opportunity to reach the hearts of many.”

Unfortunately, it’s been an unscalable mountain to edit the credit (ironic how fun this sounds!) so this new transatlantic, intergenerational collaborative EP offers space for Tish Bailey’s voice to be heard... and her name to be seen.

“Stay Soft” is Sarah & Tish’s first project together consisting of three tracks across the 130-155 bpm spectrum. This diverse EP presents unexpected musical & lyrical range to evoke joy in any listener at home & on the dance floor.

PREMIERE: Nørus & DJ Whipr Snipr – If I Could Fake One Emotion [Nerang Records]

Arvid Wretman, AKA Your Planet Is Next, has assumed the role of musical storyteller with a serious mean streak of DIY electro.

Wretman’s latest album tells its tale through the eyes of an imagined anti-hero. He conjures up the gritty underbelly of an over-populated megalopolis; a world of dilapidation, ruin and sin, where stiletto knives are a dime a dozen and our titular protagonist, the FOG MAN, stalks the streets.

In an oddball tradition, there’s an absurdist, left-of-centre flex coursing throughout. This is the Stockholm native at his strangest, radiating fuck-off attitude and an embrace of imperfection as he maximises the potential of a limited studio setup.

Bleak spoken word lyrics only serving to bolster the narrative storytelling, ‘Sad Fog’ paints a vivid picture of hardships endured, while ‘Fog Power’ resembles the inner dialogue of a man teetering at the edge of sanity. Think corrosive, industrial fug and rugged, tape-damaged torque.

Through ‘No Fog’s menacing machine funk to the visceral, downbeat sleaze of ‘Freaks’ and queasy, Wolfenstein-sampling 'Eisenfaust’, the FOG MAN deals that dystopian gear in spades.

Following 2023’s all-conquering ‘Malware Trance’ — a peak-time dose of exe.stascy played by all (all) your favourite DJs — Martyn Bootyspoon returns to Local Action with a new two-tracker of precision-tooled club heat.

One of North America’s finest and busiest DJs, we’ve made this point before but Bootyspoon is someone who just gets club music: the history, the dynamics, the key touchstones and the whole lineage. And crucially, when it comes to making it, he’s got the juice. No matter how wild or wonky, his tracks always move dancefloors, and ‘Doors at 11’ is a perfect example: hard drums and an even harder bassline that gets every bit of value out of some automated resonance and a salt shaker perc riff. Perfect heavy warm-up music, basically.

The B-side, meanwhile, feels like a sequel to ‘Malware Trance’, using a pair of interlocking synth riffs and waterdrop percussion to ride that same line between anxiety and euphoria — somewhere between a cold sweat and a hot flush.

Cueing up their second release of the year, Nehza Records gear up to release a various artist label compilation named 'Transmental'...Our curiosity has been sparked by Egregore Collective affiliate Leyka. In 'Sirocco', obscure amapiano percussions are woven with bass-heavy kick drums, sonar signals and battle cries, all blowing high-speed hurricanes from the shores of Montpellier.

Bio:
Sarah Farina is an international DJ, music producer, curator and activist. She hosts and curates the interdisciplinary Berlin event series Emergent Bass with her friends, which focuses on the historical awareness of cultural contexts
of music and celebrates and uplifts the Afro-diasporic influences in underground club culture.

She’s innovative, she’s skilful, and she’s the smiling antithesis of genre cliques and sour scene elitists and sprinkles positivity over the darkest bass.
What you hear is all you need to know. And what you’ll hear from Sarah Farina’s sets and music productions are seamlessly blended bass-heavy frequencies and futuristic beats with fearless forays through the hardcore
continuum and beyond.

It’s inclusive, forward-thinking and unrestrained. It’s a genre-rejecting style that she’s named Rainbow Bass.
She’s vocal about the issues of current club culture and runs the project „Transmission“ with researcher Dr. Kerstin Meißner, which aims to make the political relevance and history of international sound, club and rave culture audible and visible.
