Local south-London neighbours Baby Rollén & Ollie Rant team up for a two tracker that launches the off-shoot, white label of Slump Recordings! Focussed on club-ready, nostalgic UK sounds with a focus on hardware and analogue gear, the tracks span through influences of breakbeat, UK garage, liquid drum & bass and beyond. 

St. Petersburg trailblazer Maruwa delivers a stunning remix of the A1 that traverses between psychedelic acid and euphoric breakdowns through a peak time weapon that's been doing damage through the summer already.

Mother Of Pearls (@mother-of-pearls), the duo of Tom Jarmey (@tom-jarmey) and Ed Hodge (@edward-hodge), are back in action after gracing listeners with their earth-shattering debut and sophomore releases nearly two years ago. Now they land firmly on the prolific Brooklyn label HOMAGE with their 'Gelexian Protocol' EP, serving up four delicious slices of rumbling bass and breaks along with a remix by Viers (@viers).

Based in Manchester, both Tom and Ed have quickly become consistent fixtures of clubland. Tom's releases on Holding Hands, Lobster Theremin, Dansu Discs, and more, and Ed's releases on Tresydos, Gestalt, Shall Not Fade, and Dansu Discs have proven that both artists are dependable purveyors of underground dancefloor material. Their debut collaborative EP on R.A.N.D. Muzik Recordings and their sophomore release on Gunfinger Food introduced their distinct sound in 2020 and 2021 and their third full length here will deliver the next chapter of their story.

Leading off the release is 'Hive' with a weighty bassline and brain-tickling textures underneath a haunting vocal, clearly setting the tone for an A-side aimed at the most transcendent moments caught in the dance. 'Machine Language' follows appropriately with a deep chest-rattling low end and breakbeat rhythms wrapped in a warm blanket of atmosphere, earworm synths, and seductive vocal stabs. On the flip side, Mother Of Pearls amps up the energy and taps into the duo's rave influence with 'Peace On Halcyon', pairing hyper rhythms with a piercing synth and booming bass. Rounding out the originals is the Ambient Mix of 'Machine Language', with meditative textures delicately guiding the listener on a blissful sonic journey. Finally completing the release is the Viers remix of 'Peace On Halcyon', completely flipping the original into an otherworldly bass anthem that fits right at home on this stacked release.

‘No Clear Shape’ is the second release from Kassian on their new imprint Faux Poly. The release explores the concept of the VIP mix; the same core idea across 3 tracks and tailored for different environments or moments in a DJ set.

The Original Mix blends Broken Beat, UKG and UK Bass. The track builds and peaks with a prominent hook and strong melody. Next up, the Warehouse VIP strips down the idea into a no frills Breakbeat club tool, holding onto the main stabs and a stripped back vocal cuts, ideal for bigger rooms. Finally, the Club VIP is a simplified 4/4 house variation, focussing almost exclusively on the chords of the original, far more suited to regular clubs.

Channelling the pioneering sounds of the 90s and entering the modern-rave era is London producer Greg May who – following releases on Hottwerk Records, Stripped and Arcade Pony – readies four classic cuts of raw party material for the genesis release in Lobster Theremin’s A&P series. 

‘Yep (Extended Mix)’ makes use of iconic M1 chord sounds and twists them into a warped 4x4 slammer; simple, colourful and fun. ‘Freestyle Body Rockin’ maintains a more headsya appeal; wriggling acid-lines find their way deep into your brain, causing it to malfunction as the electro robot-funk takes control.

‘Peech Kids’ is a cut of chugging house that lends influence from the classic sound of Chicago; soulful and joyous grooves that transport the listener back to a time when the club floors were heavy with smoke and everyone had their shirts off. ‘Regular Man’ closes out the release with a skippy cut of acid-breakbeat; classic hip-hop samples moulding with future-electronics on a steppy rhythm.

Party-starter Chrissy joins the Shall Not Fade family with a 4-track serotonin hit which draws on influences from his home in San Francisco as well as the scene in the UK.

‘You Don’t Have To Worry’ encompasses this fusion, with anthemic piano chords and uplifting vocals that enliven a swung breaks instrumental. ‘Assure Us There’s A Heaven’ and ‘If I Could’ also come with plenty of swing, borrowing tropes from UK Funky to show house at its most danceable, whilst ‘All These Dreams’ is a modern take on old school vocal house.

Dreams EP drops 21st October via Shall Not Fade.

Edition of 300 vinyl:

Just three years ago, the urgency of recognising Amy Dabbs’ talent was wide spread by Special Request, who included her track ‘Allure’ in his notable Splurgecore compilation. The word quickly got around, and since then her career has been a steep uphill trajectory with sets at Hor Berlin, collaborations with the likes of Coco Bryce, and countless features on BBC Radio 1 Dance.

The Bobcat Special EP demonstrates why, and proves her stylistic ambidexterity as she strays from her signature jungle-focused sound in favour of one centred on house. Through the course of four tracks, Dabbs incorporates ravey piano chords, soulful vocals and bubbly melodies into fun, strutting rhythms.

The Bobcat Special EP drops 31st March via Shall Not Fade.
