An expansive EP comprising heady beats, post-rave influence, natural ambience and euphoria is next up from Shall Not Fade. Owls EP comes courtesy of Samuel Powell, a fresh find from Ireland who shows himself as one to watch with this stylish collection of tracks. 

The opening track, ‘Fold’, is a gorgeously produced composition which reaches explosive heights of dramatic stabs and distorted synth lines. ‘Detuned’ follows with high-tension pads and a punchy breakdown, pacing straight into the pounding techno pulse of ‘Echrete’. More heavy beats come from ‘Seldom’, a post-digital rave soundscape. The title track, ‘Owls’, strips all of this back into a gentle ambient exploration, lead by subtle piano that draws the EP to a meditative close.

Owls EP drops December 10th via Shall Not Fade.

Baldo - Ethereal Tubes

Bristol-based producer Gilbert steps into the time machine with this wonderful EP that sonically and spiritually connects to the early works of Warp pioneers such as B12, LFO and Speedy J. 

The first track Ylem starts with a strong kick but is nevertheless a subtle builder that directs you straight to deep space. Shift the Focus, the opener on the flip, may well be the EP’s most suitable track for the (dreamy) dance floor - the cut’s dense melodies and subtle 303 flavours work well with Gilbert’s rhythm section and would slowly but surely draw you into a psychedelic swamp when played in a club. The tracks Lucid Dream and Are We Alone are even a bit more otherworldly and fitted for an armchair listen. A big tip for anyone into layered, mind-bending UK techno!

As &on&on, DJ’s Noni and Worth Way have been making some serious waves over the past year, being named one of DJ Mag top artists to check out in 2022 and also featured on Disclosure’s DJ Kicks compilation.

On their first release on the label, the duo boast their prowess in composing uplifting, melodic dance music which draws on myriad influences to create unique and innovative sounds. Whilst every track on Mentalphysics has fun and festivity at its core, some take their inspiration from disco (‘Mid Valley’), whilst others from groovy deep house (‘All Day’) or breakbeat (‘Delta T’). Finally, ‘Melted’ subtly evokes speed garage in the way the bass dips, giving the track lots of depth and ‘Samo’ brings things to an anthemic close with reverberating cymbals filling any space with body and movement.

Mentalphysics EP drops 18th November via Lost Palms.
