JVXTA is a DJ and producer based in London (UK). He also co-founded the label Hardmatter.
  
In March 2023 Scissor And Thread, the Brooklyn imprint headed by Francis Harris and Anthony Collins share JVXTA’s debut album - Euston Blues. 

"Water Temple", a dusty house track,  is the lead-single taken from the album.

Elements of free improvisation and experimentation pepper the album, while a strong thread of atmospheric cohesion winds its way through the eight tracks - making Euston Blues a truly rewarding and rich listening experience. 

"Euston Blues synthesises deep chords, classic house rhythms and jazz laden influences to chronicle an intimate journey of physical and psychological isolation." says Charles Field, the man behind the JVXTA project. 

"Scope is relative and this transposition is explored from the seclusion of a single room to the expanses of the Beyond".

Euston Blues is available as a four-track vinyl EP and full digital album from March, 24th on Scissor And Thread.

Here, Scissor And Thread, the Brooklyn imprint headed by Francis Harris and Anthony Collins share JVXTA’s debut album - Euston Blues. 

The album is a collection of moods and textures, from woozy soundscapes like opener No One Needs to Know and Voyager, to grooving, dusty house tracks like Hold On, Water Temple and Lost in Place. 

Tracks develop from ambient textures into leftfield beat excursions (Beyond) and incorporate thoughtful samples such as the spoken word poetry in The Stolen Child.

DaRand Land, who hails from the post industrial confines of Buffalo, NY was one of the leading figures of Deep4Life, a cult label known for submersible oriented, yet dancefloor-friendly productions. With ambient synth-driven tones and heavy funk basslines being at the center of his sound, DaRand Land’s music often evokes an introspective quality, without losing its groove fundamental.

Following on from a number of releases on Pulp, Downbeat, Urban Imagery and the “Discover You” EP on Scissor & Thread, here is Nature Of Reality, the single taken from DaRand Land’s second album Wander Being, released on Scissor & Thread in late November 2024. 





“In particular, the single, The Nature of Reality”, says DaRand, “was written to convey a sense of what it feels like to be in a state of suspended animation. There is a natural tension introduced via the organic, swirling pad progression juxtaposed against endless vocal echoes and the low-end groove of the bassline. Thematically, I wanted to carry this forward through the entirety of the album.”

DaRand Land, who hails from the post industrial confines of Buffalo, NY was one of the leading figures of Deep4Life, a cult label known for submersible oriented, yet dancefloor-friendly productions. With ambient synth-driven tones and heavy funk basslines being at the center of his sound, DaRand Land’s music often evokes an introspective quality, without losing its groove fundamental. DaRand’s works, which span decades on deep house labels such as Downbeat, Confluence and Pulp have been described as “uncompromising” and has afforded him a passionate following of listeners who seek a more emotive, thought-provoking brand of underground music.

Teaming up once again with Scissors and Thread - the perfect fit for his sound - DaRand Land drops an album full of crafty, trippy house for the heads. Wander Being contains 10 tracks on the double vinyl release with a pair of additional tracks for the digital release. The vibe is deep and sleek, with a rough, bumping edge. The title track sets the tone, a smattering of percussion accompanying a thick, round kick drum and Rhodes chords, giving off a classic Detroit feel. Tracks like Turn to The Music ramp up the energy somewhat, but overall the tracks sit in the sweet spot between dancefloor burners and soulful, jazzy, deep cuts. 

Noticeable is the space given to each element across the tracks - the hi-hats sparkle, the snare snaps, and the basslines roll and rumble. Add to this the magic melodic flourishes provided by the pads and synths, reminiscent of the late Mike Huckaby in places, made this whole album a thoughtful, joyful experience.

„The genesis for the Wander Being LP”, says DaRand “was a desire to return to the essence of some of my original Deep4Life productions. How was this accomplished? Principally, through the exclusive use of hardware components, minimalist arrangement, and a minds-eye approach to source the musical elements. In particular, the single, The Nature of Reality was written to convey a sense of what it feels like to be in a state of suspended animation. There is a natural tension introduced via the organic, swirling pad progression juxtaposed against endless vocal echoes and the low-end groove of the bassline.

Dom Bird is a multi-instrumentalist, producer and DJ from Brisbane, Australia. Known as part of indie-disco band, Mitzi, and one half of house duo, Chord Memory Band, Bird also co-founded the radio show and label, Beats Of No Nation.
Yemayá, Bird’s first solo EP is undeniably intimate. Written and recorded over one night, Yemayá draws inspiration from Afro-Latin culture, blending sounds derived from a synthesizer, guitar and drum machine with samples taken from a recording session with percussionist, Gus Cereijo. 
“Since moving to NYC a few years ago, I’ve been fortunate to spend time in places that I’d previously only read about or seen in movies. I found that diasporic communities in Brooklyn, Detroit and Havana - although extremely unique in their own right - share a common musical thread, a certain energy that is deeply entrenched, raw and fluid. I was trying to channel that vibe.”
Released July 5th on Beats Of No Nation, Yemayá is a celebration of creation, love and healing.

PREMIERE : Dom Bird - Anikulapo

PREMIERE: Iñigo Vontier feat. Thomass Jackson - Marijuana [Lumiere Noire]

Release Title: El Hijo Del Maíz LP
Artist: Iñigo Vontier feat. Thomass Jackson
Label: Lumiere Noire
Catalogue No.: LN024
Release-Date: 29.11.2019

Hot off the heels of Aluxes, his 2018 Lumière Noire debut EP, young Mexican DJ/producer Iñigo Vontier is inviting Chloé‘s label on a trip to the far corners of the body and mind with an album of demented grooves, psychedelic take-offs and imaginary comic strips of mystical
rituals.

A bewitching full-length

Mexicans may never possess the sonic science of the Germans, the hedonistic madness of the English or the gift for synthesis of the French, but, as proven by Iñigo Vontier‘s first full length for Lumière Noire, their universe is much more exciting than anyone would have ever thought. The DJ/producer fully asserts his origins by brandishing the album’s title El Hijo del Maiz („the son of the corn“) almost as an emblem: „in Mexico, corn is eaten daily. It has long been defined as ‚the gold of America‘, and I consider all Mexicans as children of corn“.

A spiritual and embodied vision

Iñigo‘s first Lumière Noire release, the four-track Aluxes, set the tone of the young talent‘s distinctive interpretation of dark disco, which creeps up on the dancefloor from its iconoclastic side. The two tracks and two remixes (one by Flugel, the other by Inigo himself) featured on the 12“ for lead single Xu Xu (featuring Red Axes-affiliate Xen‘s irrelevant vocals) was a full-bodied confirmation that Vontier sees the dancefloor as an arena for the occult – whether from the peoples of the equatorial jungle, the Middle East or, even from indocile machines.

But, while the spiritual element seems part and parcel of the Jalisco native’s output, it is in no way the only ingredient of this first long-player: „this album best reflects my own vision and spirituality, and the way I feel it“ he says.

Whether contemplative or frenetic, the collection of tracks that make up El Hijo Del Maiz takes the kitchen sink and throws it out the window: languid rhythms, haunted vocals, and mysterious percussion fuel a discombobulated house set that scrambles the listener‘s five
senses, leaving one disoriented and exposed to the vagaries of vertigo.

(continued) The pony gives his bells a shake / To ask if there is some mistake. / The only other sound’s the sweep / Of easy wind and downy flake. // The breaks are lovely, dark and deep / But I have promises to keep / And hours to dance before I sleep / And hours to dance before I sleep. //
The forest has revealed another surprise: following up on Grove's single last week, Kiosek is now proud to release his collaboration with another Prague legend, Brada. Years ago, the two forest lovers worked together under the Los Dodos moniker. Now they are back to bring you another atmospheric treasure.
