OS Premiere: Pluralist - Vases [Pressure Dome]

With a glimmer of optimism on the horizon, we’re delighted to announce our second V/A compilation Psycho/Soma - the first of many exciting releases for 2021.

12 tracks to move body & mind, spanning a full spectrum of UK club music - from introspective, tripped-out rollers to intense percussive workouts and frantic 160(ish) action.

To accompany the release, we’re creating our first ever run of limited edition, long-sleeve, 100% organic cotton, peta-approved t-shirts, designed by UK-based independent graphic artist Alex Vissaridis.

In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, we released our first compilation ‘Remote Access’, which has so far raised over £1000 for the Trussell Trust. We’d like to continue to use these V/As to support causes we’re passionate about, so a portion of the label’s profits for this release will be split between three prominent mental health charities who we feel are doing important work in the UK - Mind, YoungMinds & Black Minds Matter.

On 21st September the rising French DJ/producer Simo Cell presents new mini album ‘YES.DJ’ – his first solo record since 2018 – released on his own label TEMƎT. A celebration of dance music culture, each of these heavy-duty, titanium-plated bangers are a tribute to different styles of beats, reinterpreted and suffused with his distinct personality.

The release also comes with a fanzine, which continues the celebration of DJing and dancefloors from a sideways perspective, curating photos taken by Simo of drinks tokens from clubs around the world.

Mershak - Barricade [GS019 Showreel Ft. Pluralist]

In celebration of the release of INTRP005 from Manchester based producer Dulha, Interpolate recruit leftfield bass and techno champion Pluralist to fashion Dulha's 'Lotus' into a bewitching UK Techno delight.

Dulha is a Manchester based producer with a respect for dance music of all kinds, striving to create music with intricacy and rawness. He takes influence from an array of styles, ranging from UK variants such as Grime and Jungle to other genres such as Electro, Ambient and Soundtrack.

In April 2021, Dulha's debut EP 'C-Life / Lotus' was released on Interpolate Records. With more recent additions to his catalogue, Dulha contributed a half time groover packed with plenty of weighty bass to the Daytimers collectives second charity compilation in response to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis in India.

Pluralist (Will Bowen) is an up-and-coming, Birmingham/Bristol based DJ, originally hailing from Cheltenham. His most recent release, ‘Gallak’, was picked up by Circular Jaw, gaining support from artists like Hypho, Doctor Jeep & Madam X.

Lotus (Pluralist Remix) - Single

Premiere: Dulha - Lotus (Pluralist Remix) [Interpolate Records]

Artist: Low End Activist
Title: Hostile Utopia
Label: Sneaker Social Club
Cat No: SNKRLP009
Release Date: 14th June

Casting a self-reflexive lens over his roots via the medium of crushing, future-rushing soundsystem sonics, Low End Activist returns to Sneaker Social Club with a full-length of monumental proportions.

When the Low End Activism 12” ignited on Sneaker in 2019, it paid tribute to the Blackbird Leys estate in Oxford, UK, where LEA originates from. In the shadow of social inequality and strengthened by the unity of the multi-ethnic community, Blackbird Leys still imposes a powerful influence on LEA’s work, even as he’s stepped out onto Seagrave for last year’s Game Theory album and notched up the first couple of releases on his own self-titled label.

On this new album, Hostile Utopia sums up the conflicting emotions attached to memories of home – how it’s possible to feel nostalgic for the griminess of urban and suburban Britain, its ordinary tales of bitterness and frustration, but also its intrinsic passion and solidarity. At a time when social division is actively engineered by Machiavellian forces, real conviviality at street level feels like an impossible dream.

LEA communicates these tensions through a style which is becoming his signature – dynamic bass torsion and chiseled, fractalised rhythms slugging around the 130 mark. It’s moody like a UK-themed record ought to be, but it’s not morose. There’s fierceness in every snap and rumble, as the legacies of hardcore, jungle, dubstep and grime pour into the casing prior to the gunpowder lighting.

On previous LEA releases, the MC roll call has pointed to some of the most vital voices touching the mic in the present day. Flowdan, Sikka Rymes and Trim all had something different to impart over the riddims, and now Hostile Utopia expands on that with the most extensive show of lyrical strength yet. Mez lights up the woozy, abstract grime swerve of ‘Mercenary’ in a musical style. Emz brings a ruthlessly sharp verbal steez to ‘GetGet’, Killa P gets busy toasting over ‘DFRNT STYLE’ and ‘Superhighway’ carries the dexterous hip-hop flow of Cadence Weapon.

In between those standout tracks, LEA expresses just as much in the production. Tracks brimming with stories to impart, laden with symbols masquerading as samples and draped in aural garb that firmly places Hostile Utopia in a place, a mood, that could only belong to the UK. It’s a hybrid sound just like the society it sprang from, and therein lies its power.

[Premiere] Pluralist - UN Sanctions (feat. Rex Domino) (out on Manuka)

https://ceadcead.bandcamp.com/album/impurity-a-hole-in-the-sky

"A Hole In The Sky was written solely out of nostalgia for the old Dubstep nights of the lates 00's. Dark rooms with only a light on the decks, an overwhelming stack of speakers in proportion to the room size that would tend to have subs that would make your body feel like you were falling through a hole in the sky.

Havanna Laffe was written in an attempt to capture the atmosphere and energy of mid-summer garden parties in Liverpool."
