Untold - Yukon

Some had said that this land would change over the ages, however as she watched the red sun die in the distance for yet another night she noticed very little in terms of revolution. Stripes on a tiger don't wash away, much in the same way as the trees don't fall unless chopped. The wild creatures still roamed from town to town with perilous freedom, perhaps they were the last of us which were truly free. Whatever that meant anyway... She climbed into bed and closed her eyes, soon this would all be over. 

Ever the evolutionary, UK electronic music owes more than it perhaps knows to the forward thinking aspirations of Sully. As a producer he has ridden beneath the current, making music true to himself rather than hype or style. As a result he is fiercely supported by many who feel more credit should be due. He is about to release a new 10" EP on Bastakiya Tapes.

PREMIERE: Sully - Stripes On A Tiger Don't Wash Away [Bastakiya Tapes]

Syz appears as the first release of the new imprint Only Ruins. This piece takes the listener on a journey of sub bass booms and floaty synth lines that jump around in a fun yet purposeful way.

PRE ORDER - https://sneakersocialclub.bandcamp.com/album/halcyon-daze

Through a misty, nostalgic lens of long days and nights lost in front of sound systems, Soundbwoy Killah delivers his much anticipated debut album to Sneaker Social Club. True to previous drops on this and other labels, this is rave romanticism with a bite, as much viewing the good old days with a wry smile as longing for their return. Just listen to the opening strains of “Escape Velocity,” as the MC manages a sticky situation and tries to keep cool while sending the crowd on their way “in an orderly fashion.” 

As much as hardcore, jungle, acid, techno and house inform Halcyon Daze, the sonic signifiers of that ‘golden era’ of rave culture are bedded in a poignant, reflective shroud. From lingering pads to distant, reverb drenched vocal snatches, a hint of melancholy hovers over these scattered but vivid memory triggers. Reese bass has never reverberated so deep, sirens never sounded so lost at sea. 

The real art in Soundbwoy Killah’s craft lies in the juxtaposition between these languid, introspective elements and bright, sharply rendered arcs of sound that bring the music right into the foreground. This isn’t a pure exercise in nostalgia – stripped of their aggressive armour plating, a lot of these familiar elements take on a new expressive identity. Whether it’s the strafing arps in “Tom Loves To Rave,” or softly nudging the rolling breaks of “Under The Influence” into a downtempo, chill-out room headspace, Halcyon Daze proves how much mileage there still is in these battle-scarred sonic tools. 

It’s not all one-dimensionally downcast either – “Heartbeats” is a rude n’ ruff celebration of amen choppage, while “Wanna Hold U” channels the ghost of UK garage with one eye cast back to its US house roots. “All Night Long” finishes the record on a charging high, all tightly clipped tech step beats and bright synths that cast their gaze ahead with optimism. The themes of lost love and fuzzy memories echo throughout Halcyon Daze, but rather than wallowing in the past, this open-ended finishing move springs forward with purpose. One gets the feeling there’s plenty more to come from Soundbwoy Killah.
