K - Run - On Down (EOE Edit)

After an astonishing SK001 remix that left us craving for more, we simply had to bring Elmono back for a grand expedition on Spitskool. Hailing from Cardiff but finding solace in Lisbon, this maestro has graced revered labels like Cold and Tectonic Records. And now, after a six-year hiatus, a new full body of work emerges, surpassing all expectations. Brace yourself for a collection of intricate, analog jams, tailor-made for every nocturnal moment.

First on the voyage is 'Release,' where organic samples mingle with resounding percussion. A smooth acid baseline carries this delicately emotive composition, never straying too far from the established path, yet perpetually meandering within the structured groove, propelling us forward.

Following suit is 'Fields of Shells,' an awe-inspiring MPC workout. Immaculately crafted drums, a formidable break, and an 808 jam unite to create a stunning piece of club artillery. The acid and stabs transport the mind to two distinct otherworldly realms, converging within the unorthodox groove forged by the low-end percussion.

Enter 'RhythmTing,' a subaqueous grime hybrid that wanders through captivating sonic landscapes. Refusing to pause and fixate, the essence lies in the absence of focus. Percussive elements weave in and out amidst arresting 16-bit sound design and intricate soundscapes, ultimately carving defined sonic spaces that dominate the soundscape.

Prepare for an education in impeccable rhythm and looping with 'You Knows.' Elmono's hip-hop and jungle prowess take center stage. Flangers and phasers dance in harmony with a break that flawlessly complements a contemplative synthesis and sub-bass combination. This is the epitome of slow, moody, and sleek jungle at its zenith.

Lastly, we have 'Way Cool,' a minimal roller tailor-made for those ethereal moments illuminated by 4 AM smoke machines. A tense and unsettling acid line harmonizes with the percussion, seamlessly intertwining with the vast expanse and atmosphere. Elmono has birthed an unequivocal and unmistakable sound, unapologetically his own.

For the remixes in this chapter, we have the label heads Maroki and Coralie, each offering their distinct reimaginations. Coralie's reinterpretation of 'Way Cool' echoes uncomfortable sound design reminiscent of Aphex Twin, challenging the very fabric of club-oriented music. Infused with his trademark bass-heavy kicks and subterranean work, accompanied by clicking percussion, it's the acid's metamorphosis that elevates this piece to the realm of peak-time, left-field delight.

Finally, we encounter Maroki's remix of 'Fields of Shells' - an unyielding and ferocious endeavour. A relentless 4x4 kick, overpowering acid, rolling percussion, and earth-shaking sub-bass levels test even the most robust foundations of any given club. Brace yourself for an unapologetic and unrelenting journey into the depths.

Expect The Unexpected...

Italian legend Walter Del Vecchio aka Quiroga pays tribute to the acid house era on Hell Yeah with a new package that comes with two originals, an ambient mix and a remix from cult hero DMX Krew.

Quiroga released his last sublime album Passages on this label and it came as the latest entry into a discography filled with beauty and detail. He is a talented musician from Naples who has his own left-of-centre take on the Mediterranean sounds of the city, as he shows "once again" here with a house-leaning outing.

Quiroga has teamed up with cult musician Dario Bassolino and called upon Whodamanny's mixing skills for these new tracks.

First is 'Once Again', a punchy and chunky house cut with skewed bass spraying about the mix. Its rough analogue edges are lit up by searing acid lines that never quit and will turn any party into a cauldron of intensity.

The Ambient Version is a full-flavour downtempo workout that keeps the wild acid lines, adds in some FX, old-school piano chords and a yelping female vocal next to a blissful breakdown.

'Once Again' (DMX Krew Remix) is then a bumping acid-electro monster with fat drums and the manic 303 offset by serene chord work to make for a perfectly emotional dance floor delight.

'Freak The Funk' is a second original cut and not at rides of crisp snares and snapping drums breaks with a warm bassline and smeared cosmic chords up top. It's a classy peak-time house cut with magical pixelated synth melodies.

Alongside superb artwork from PlanetLuke, this is another essential package from Hell Yeah.
