Out now on Crosstown Rebels: lnk.to/CRMLP046

Escapism is a theme that runs through the very heart of music. We listen to be transported, removing ourselves from our immediate surroundings as our senses relax and the sonic experience washes over us. During times of hardship, such a sensation is naturally magnified. Music gifts us a way out from our challenges, allowing us to choose how we feel in response to the sounds we hear. This theme has been explored meticulously by Audiojack over the past four years, resulting in the release of their second album, Surface Tension, on Crosstown Rebels this April. 

The pair described the meaning behind the album, encapsulating what inspired them to pursue the four-year project: “In the modern world our attention has become so fragmented with technological distractions. We wanted to create a piece of music that could be an escape from that, where someone can close their eyes and let their imaginations fill in the gaps that the other senses have left behind.” 

The journey sets off with Subterranea, a futuristic breaks-inspired cut that features shimmering female vocals throughout. It feels both euphoric and spacious, taking us to a world far removed from ours. The first collaborative effort comes next in the form of Under Your Skin. Released as the album’s lead single in February, Kevin Knapp’s weighty lyrical offering takes no prisoners, paving the way for the track’s punchy, percussion-heavy backbone. 

The American producer and vocalist is no stranger to the label, having collaborated with Audiojack previously on Implications as well as releasing Flipped on Crosstown’s sister imprint Rebellion. Binaural Dreaming soon arrives, plunging us into a sensory experience thanks to an array of worldwide field recordings, which simulate the experience of a dream. 925 Shift ups the pace, pairing resonant kick-hat combos against a myriad of robot-like synths whilst gentle keys chime softly in the background. 

Surreal yet familiar in one, it opens smoothly into Easy Rider, a groove-led, minimal laced dance number that transports us to brighter days with upbeat piano rolls and dream-like chords. Psychoactive pt. 1 continues the warming theme, delving further into tropical realms. Ethereal pads blend into pulses of acid to form an immersive auditory piece.

Krankbrother have been throwing infamous parties all over the UK & Europe for the past 6 years, regularly hosting the likes of Four Tet, Daphni, Mr. G, Gerd Janson, Paul Woolford, Roman Flugel, Levon Vincent, Derrick Carter, John Talabot & Nina Kraviz, amongst others.

Brothers Danny & Kieran Clancy now launch Krankbrother Records as an outlet for their own productions, and those of their close associates and friends from the industry. Drawing on their experience in organising their parties, the vinyl and digital label will encompass music from across the entire electronic spectrum, from disco to techno and everything in between. 

The inaugural release comes from Krankbrother themselves, a three track single that encompasses the many facets of their musical direction, from the driving and low-slung disco house vibes of “Unreserved” to the uplifting after-hours sounds of “Suburban Scandal”.

Kieran Clancy explains, “We’ve been looking to set up our own imprint for a while now, with the huge success of our parties, and especially with us breaking out of the capital city and into other UK cities, festivals and events further afield.  We also wanted our own platform for our Krankbrother productions, and to have complete control on the music and artistic design of the label. We’ve had some amazing responses to our releases on Nice Age and Classic Music, so wanted to really indulge in our own label.  We are also committed to launching new talent, so expect to hear new music from fledgling producers like Jody Barr and Joe Munday very soon”.

Steve Bug & Langenberg - PARADISE SOLD REMIXES 

Steve Bug and Langenberg's 'Paradise Sold' album dropped earlier this year to quite a rapturous reception. It's hardly surprising that two of the more prolific and passionate men in house music would pull together such a complete album of contemporary house music.

Happily, the guys have now curated a fine EP of remixes from friends and family to take some of the album's key moments into new directions.

'Search For Xur' gets the treatment by Rodriguez Jr., bringing a very slinky, late night deepness to the original courtesy of a bubbling bassline and emotionally charged synth pads.

'Senior Elfo' is flipped by fellow Germans Frankey & Sandrino, whose knowledge of the deeper end of the tech house spectrum gives the track an epic openness.

Perlon and Panorama Bar legend Cassy drops her Full On Dub Mix of album highlight 'Chord Cluster', and delivers a slick, driving burner for the floor.

Similarly, 'A Touch Of Detroit' is re-rubbed by Ostgut Ton's Virginia with her Broken Touch Of Detroit mix, which channels classic motor city techno legends to produce a near perfect slice of hi tech soul.
