Hey everyone super excited about this one! 🌀This month S&B's co-founder Gina had a chat with Anna Heisterkamp for our Skin&Blister In Conversation With. @anniefatt is a brilliant filmmaker who has worked with the likes of @seanbeing and @nixer-music to make some stand out music videos. She also produces her own music working under the name Annie Fatt and more recently Guvnor with @banrionbaby to make some woozy sounds.

We had a great chat exploring her process, teasing out what an identity means as a creative, how we can tackle the collective pessimism in Dublin and the pressures of productivity in a pandemic. Tune in!

Purveyor of lovecore, fabba and cakebeat, bestie and all-round DJ-inspo Angel D’lite blesses Ritual Poison with her ‘Re4mat’ EP. 
‘Werk My Body’ is a swirl of feminine energy, empowered vocals blending with hardcore breaks and hyper bass, a four four switch warping temporally before the track drops again. Local Group return the remix favour from their own recent EP, slowing ’Werk My Body’ to a 140 emo-banger, trance melodies sandwiching a proggy mid-section, the bass bumping throughout.
‘R u Ready’ keeps the NRG and BPMs high, breakbeats rolling over booming sub and dubbed out rave stabs, the sexual charge of the female ragga vocal frank and unashamed. ‘Re4mat’ signs off, the hallowed B2. Drawing on rave anthems of the past, it looks boldly to the future.  “This particular historical juncture holds possibilities for change that we’ve never before experienced,” declares Angela Davis, as the euphoria subsides for a moment. ‘Re4mat’ and start again.

Angel D'lite 'Re4mat EP'

We premiere some fresh new music from dance music pioneer Detroits Filthiest, as they return to Casa Voyager with selection of jazzy, drum and bass, electro, bassy, ghetto type cuts. We premiere the first offering from the EP entitled ‘Perception Of Reality’ which draws on 90’s hip-hop nostalgia while intertwining vintage liquid drum and bass influences.

Detroit’s Filthiest went by many names in the past, DJ Nasty, Digitek, 313 Bass Mechanics were some of his aliases in the ’90s. During this time he was part of a movement from Detroit that established ghettotech as a DJ-style as well as an electronic music genre.

In 2015 he re-entered the game as Detroit’s Filthiest and in 2017 he collaborated with Sinistarr on ‘Yo Speakerz. His ‘Honor Among Thieves EP’ in 2018 provided yet another Detroit infused hit with ‘Funky Sperm’ which amassed over 900,000 plays.

Detroit’s Filthiest’s return to Casa Voyager encapsulates a multi-genre approach to an otherwise cohesive EP. ‘Accept No Substitute’ follows his 2021 release for the label, ‘Imitated Never Duplicated’. Once again he fuses both jazzy and bassy D&B, Electro, Breaks and Ghettotech stylings like no other. Probably the ultimate Detroit’s Filthiest record on Casa Voyager.

‘Perceptions Of Reality’ leans on jittering breakbeats, cavernous bass, drifting pads, and synth-lines that reek of 90’s west-coast nostalgia. Perception of Reality is soothing and comforting, and for one reason or another makes me want to buy a corvette, just so I could listen to this track with the roof down. Detroit’s Filthiest at his finest.

Amaliah’s edit of ‘Pass That Dutch’, now entitled ‘Throw That Dutch’ carves an acid line with bass heavy notes and sharp percussion in a lead up to the recognisable rap verse from Missy. Varying vocal chops and a techno melody give it that edge making it one for the darkest of booths.

Y2SLAY Edits is out now via Bandcamp!

LUXE & Tom Place are next up with their collaborative ‘Moonquake’ EP. The signature cross genre influences can be heard in the off kilter percussion, laid on top of bassy cuts, with subtle trance influences permeating throughout. A bold way to close out another year of releases on Dansu Discs.

Firm favourite, Angel D’lite is back to close off the record with her jungle filled flip of ‘Moonquake’.

LUXE & Tom Place - Moonquake EP (Includes remix from Angel D’lite)

Were super hyped to start off the new year with a killer premiere, by non other than an artist stirring  up some real currents with their work.

Happy to be able to share the awesome track, 'Conditions of Weightlessness' by the fantastic Acidfinky, who is a Berlin-based DJ and producer, member of "THF Radio", co-founder of the feminist collective "BLVSH" and mind behind "Twisting Knobs Records".

"Weightlessness is a condition when your body is in free fall and the acceleration is downward at gravity. This condition can be defined by the term zero gravity. So weightlessness occurs when there is zero support of force on our body."

This track sits next to some amazing music on the first release on Twisting Knobs. It's a collection of four dreamy, breaks and electro induced tracks. Made for travelling in space. So don't sleep on this and cop it now.

Contributing to a good cause, all proceeds go to "Women Life Freedom", a collective raising the voice of the feminist uprisings in Iran from Berlin. Donate here: https://www.betterplace.me/support-woman-life-freedom-collective-in-berlin

So head over and get your hands on this amazing release through the buy link above, you don't wanna miss out. <3

True to her mission to keep the possibilities open from release to release, Danielle’s Soft Raw label brings through the supple, cybernetic sound of Austen. The London-based producer’s debut EP is brimming with infectious energy and inventive swerves, providing plenty of heat for the more mutant-minded corners of the club. 

Medulla actually opens up with a more contemplative side of Austen’s sound, leaving the beats to one side and letting a sharply rendered synth line plot a course through ‘Merece Mejor’s hazy pads and shifting textures as an updated variation on the ambient techno tradition. 

‘Medulla’ itself instantly dispenses with the pleasantries and jacks up the tempo, offering a fast-paced but light-footed rip through acidic techno with more than a little sprinkling of braindance on its corn flakes. The edits and fills are crafty, the sound design tweaked, and there’s space for surprise at every turn without derailing the floor-focused energy. 

‘Reuben’ offers up a knottier broken beat construction with dense percussion locked into a rolling locomotion, while ‘Kusama’ summons the spirits of dubstep and channels them into a lean, intricately detailed piece peaking just above 140. As an added bonus, Austen also offers up an exclusive edit as a free download which throws the spotlight on the cheekier end of his approach in the club. 

Soft Raw continues to explore the contrast between opposing qualities in cutting-edge dance music, reflecting Danielle’s taste as a selector and giving a platform to the most exciting new producers.

Splashes of bass, breakbeat, bass, techno and experimental soundscapes; Nehza Records delivers second V/A - Transaquae

The sixth release on RONI’s label Nehza Records dives into the theme of Water and explores how we, as humans, share the same Water as animals and plants to survive. Transaquae features ten international producers, traversing from the UK to Europe to Asia, each of whom interprets the theme of Water in their own distinct way.

Jossy Mitsu, Flore, Angel D’lite, CRRDR, Sun People, Nog4yra, SAYANG, Roaming Data, TOBS and label boss RONI tell the story of Water and its nourishment of planet earth, from feeding new life to regulating the temperature of humans and nature.
_________

We are 90% water. We are the sea, the glaciers, and the rain.
By drinking Water, we carry these natural sources and spirits inside us.
You are the sea.

Water is mother.
We feel her power. We are influenced by her. She is as powerful as the sun and the moon. We are movement and currents. Each of us carries our own sea, and our sea will feed another form of life.
