Cup & String "No Pressure"

RELEASE INFO

Hamburg duo Hauke Freer and Matthias Relling aka Session Victim return to Delusions of Grandeur with their second long player, 'See You When You Get There'.

Right from the start it's clear Session Victim's way with a groove hasn't diminished in the two years since their debut album, 2012's 'The Haunted House of House'. ‘Do It Now’ and ‘Hey Stranger’ open the record with the duo's trademark blend of subtle sampling, gloriously swinging beats and the same off-kilter sensibility that consistently raises them above their modern disco peers.

The new album marks a conscious progression in Freer & Relling's approach, evolving the sample-based production style that's won them plenty of fans since their emergence in 2008. Whereas their debut album was recorded in the duo's bedrooms, the new LP instead sees them embracing a full studio set-up, split between their own Hamburg-based studio and the fully-kitted out Room G studio in San Francisco.

Despite being situated in one of the USA's most beautiful locations, the duo found little time for anything outside the work at hand. Time not spent in the studio saw them raiding the two-dollar bins of Amoeba Music for interesting records to sample. "Having access to a fully-equipped studio was like hitting the jackpot. It was a bit intimidating too - we thought 'if we cannot write the LP here, it’s not in us'. A few days later we already forgot about this and were immersed in jamming and exploring," says Hauke. "We had access to all sorts of 80s drum machines, synths and fender rhodes of course that added another layer to the whole thing."

The resulting LP is as expected one that suits a variety of moods within SV's idosyncratic range - from the dancefloor thrills of the piano-led Never Forget, the classic disco percussion & filtered guitar licks of Stick Together and the heads down groove of The Most Beautiful Divorce Ever to the more laid back jazz tempos of Hyuwee and Crystal Maze, while the record also has a place for the more oddball moments of Under Your Spell and Eos Place. ‘See You When You Get There' finds Session Victim at their best yet, with an accomplished album that will likely emerge as one of 2014's strongest in its field.

WOLFEP005 Eddie C - My Woman (PBR Streetgang Remix) snippet

Iggy E-Vinyl Saints [Mutant Rebels]

Release Info:

After last month’s »Busted Moniker« EP from Quarion, Retreat is thrilled to announce a new 12" courtesy of house music’s most energetic duo, the incomparable Session Victim! The aptly titled »Two Man House Band EP« is the lads’ first record since their 2014 magnum Opus »See You When You Get There« and perfectly transcribes the energy that Session Victim pour into their incendiary live show. Tailormade for a night out in the club or a joyous day at the festival, the »Two Man House Band EP« once again prooves that Session Victim are unstoppable in their pursuit of the ultimate groove!

»Summer Games« is an ode to that most festive of seasons and could easily hold the claim of being Retreat’s »biggest« track so far. Built around an Hypnotic organ loop, »SummerGames« completely blurs the lines between house, funk and soul : rolling breakbeats, catchy vocal snippets and a very groovy bassline are the core elements of this anthem that could rock any party. Yet Session Victim add a slight twist in the form of a melancholic string motive that appears in two chiseled breakdowns. It’s a little reminder that summers do not last forever and that one should enjoy them while they last ...

Flip the record in order to dive into the deeper realms of »Black Cream«, a more reflective track for the late hours. With its jazzy (almost broken) beat, guitar licks, rhodes pads, subtle percussion and ethereal vocals, »Black Cream« is the soundtrack to an exciting underwater trip with Matthias and Hauke at the controls. Thanks to the captains’ lively drum programming, the track flows effortlessly and we’re treated with many surprises along the way before a gradual rise brings us back to the surface.

»Finderlohn« is a smokey downtempo workout which finds Session Victim digging deep in their collection to demonstrate their prowess in manipulating samples. Beginning with an instanly classic guitar and piano loop, »Finderlohn« allows a shuffly breakbeat to take center stage, sometimes reinforced with double-time hihats for a more dramatic effect. The tune is definitely a headnodder’s paradise and the listener is taken that little bit higher thanks to a mystical flute solo that concludes »Finderlohn« in a psychedelic way.

Fast becoming vital members of Sydney’s rising soul / electronic scene is The Goods, here to share their new single and video “Make Your Move”. Out via Personal Best Records, “Make Your Move” welcomes the return of vocalist Black Tree, who appeared on last year's cut "Ninja Trolls" and today debuts as an official member of the band. Together with the absorbing beat and hypnotic melody, “Make Your Move” is an invitation to dance.
 
Blurring the lines between disco, funk and low slung house, “Make Your Move” progresses on The Goods’ already unique sound. The video accompaniment is a narrative of a night out in Sydney; inspiring a feeling of random fun and mischief. Newest member Black Tree joins founders Boris Bangaltar and Rosario D’Awesome in their sprawl of the town.
 
Bangaltar and D'Awesome are each players in their own right, having previously toured and recorded with artists including Touch Sensitive, Daniel Merriweather, Dereb The Ambassador and George Maple, while Black Tree, a familiar face on the Sydney music scene, has toured as backing vocalist with Ngaiire for Listen Out festival, Wave Rock and Beyond the Valley and has most recently performed with Adele. Collectively, the trio are unstoppable.
 
In 2016, The Goods released their debut self-titled double EP, which was a compendium of songs split in two, one side Bangaltar’s direction, the other D-Awesome’s. As a result, the 12-tracker delivered a steady stream of hip-hop, space funk, low slung house and soul, and left supporters unable to decide whether they paralleled Outkast or were Gorillaz’ successors. Featuring on the EP were triple j and community radio supported cuts “Nightlife” ft. Bruce Hathcock, “Ninja Trolls” ft. Black Tree, “Only One” ft. unKle H and “Strong Man”.

Their incredible live show has shown support to the likes of Onra and Oddisee, graced the stage at the award winning Vivid Live Festival and will support Winston Surfshirt at their upcoming sold out single launch. With a new single and video dropping today and a forthcoming EP due out later this year, The Goods are ones to watch in 2017.
