Lara & The Hackney Parrot Mix 2 for Radio 80000

☆★★ https://bit.ly/GRSCLM081 ★★☆

The Mood Series continues to push along in 2023 with quality release after quality release. #81 comes to us from a producer who is getting plenty of attention and rightly so! Krystian Shek is becoming a house hold name the last few years especially after in total now well over 25 years of a brilliant music discography. 'In The Dense Of Night' is his latest EP but first for the Greyscale label. The depth you get from 4 tracks here is truly astounding. 'Surabaya' begins the EP on a strong note. There is a tremendous balance of ominous and positivity within the track. It hits all the right notes and is a strong dancefloor mover. Just deep enough but not losing why dance music should ultimately be fun. The title track has a great two-step shuffle to it. Immediately, it has you nodding your head. It already pulled you in with the hypnotic rhythm. From there, things take a turn for the darker...an evil grin appears on your face. For those that like to dance in the dark. 'Fluids' is a gentle builder but don't let that comment fool you. This has just enough tech to get those feet tapping. The break and buildup of the melody is pure magic. Amazing how balanced this track is. Subdued but still crushes. Production genius there! 'Sukhumvit' is the deepest here of the four. The rolling bass frequencies are next level while the track rises and falls so smoothly. Krystian Shek has quite the talent. An EP that is sure to make anyone an immediate fan of his work. We hope to see Krystian back real soon on the label. We can't get enough of this!

For Feeling Blue’s fifth release comes one of the most hotly-tipped producers out of Ōtautahi, Christchurch - Shli, making their label debut with new 4-track EP ‘Backrooms’.

The EP feels like both an ode to classic, percussive club production with signature and recognisable sample and pattern selections, as well as an exploration of the new wave of underground, weaved with dark, clever, distorted and intricate melodic elements right throughout. The result is the perfect catalyst of current underground and house party “backroom” culture found only in New Zealand.

‘Anemoia’ kicks off laying out the sonic palette for the EP; a powerful 2-step beat, dubby synths intricately affected and interacting effortlessly with it, and a deep, wobbly bass wrapping all elements together. ‘Sepia’ moves to 4-to-the-floor, the kick sometimes broken and syncopated to continue its relentless movement through off-beat synth stabs and flourishes. ‘Xylem’ carries an early Floating Points-esque energy; cleverly stereo-placed percussion fills out a more simple but no-less captivating melody, the toms and bass line almost conversing with each other. The title track ‘Backrooms’ closes the project, seeing Shli flex his production prowess through atmospheric and downtempo hip-hop chops.

True Sneaker Social die-hard Etch returns with a monumental new album. Scream of the Butterfly shows the depth and breadth of one of the illest producers operating across the many spheres of club music with a distinct “you ‘kay?” slant.

From the moment the low-end pressure and loaded samples rear their heads on the opening track, Zak Brashill demonstrates his intent to sculpt Scream Of The Butterfly as a proper album — an end-to-end listening experience full of peaks and troughs which focus on sonic storytelling much more than club functionality. Throughout his imperious output to date, the man like Etch has displayed an affinity for sound design to match his instinct for what bangs on the spectrum of dubstep, garage, jungle and hip-hop, but now he’s gone postal on soundworld-building, with a grip of heavyweights drafted in to help set the scene.
