Dorian Concept - 'Clap Track 4' (Redinho Remix)

Broken beat’s legacy is one that’s easy to miss if not given ample TLC. Just a quick bat of the eyelids, and one of the capital’s most exciting movements can flash by. A movement that inadvertently nudged soul and boogie through the early 2000s in its own way. A movement that fed on the best parts of jazz, soul and electronica and left a lot of goodness in its wake.

The producers behind 2000black are some of its main powerhouses. Established in 1998 by Dego, the likes of multi-instrumentalist Kaidi Tatham and musical director Akwasi are key ambassadors of the sound.

After a 2014 that spawned beauties like Darkest Pumpkin‘s “Let It Be/That Feeling” and March’s Lordamercy they’re back. They resurface with three new tracks – each of which are strong nominees for Debuts. “Make It Hard” was the office shoo-in. The type of track to instantly make heads knock back and forth like nodding Churchill dog playthings. Jovial polyrhythms galore, the allure of soothing rhodes and all bundled on top of a slick bass underbelly.

„Reworks Vol. 4“ is the last issue of a whole series of stunning edits for the forgotten, Venezuelan producer and studio engineer Daniel Grau. DJs and producers like  Daniel Wang, Max Graef, Ray Mang and Debonair have all completed their very own and personal interpretations of Grau's Tropical Cosmic Disco world for Sonar Kollektiv. Now works by Mark E, Fajra Fantasmo, Marcel Vogel and Jacques Renault succeed for this 4th issue.

It's not the first remix Mark E has done for Sonar Kollektiv. But with all due respect to his previous achievements this edit of Grau's “Combination” (off the 1981 album „Por Que No Podemos Hacerlo?“) is probably one of the most astounding things Mark Evett has perpetrated so far (by a hair's breadth behind his inofficial edit of Birth Control's “Plastic People). Hynotic funk right on the bass drum with filter effects applied so perfectly that the party will get going at the latest when this track drops in. The whistle-along tune „Con El Cielo En Tus Ojos“ (off Grau's LP „El Leon Bailarin„) is morphed by Fajra Fantasmo into most peculiar techhouse. We're all wound up to a high pitch to see how in the midst of a grimy DJ set this remix will set a grin of all the dancers faces by its jauntiness. By contrast New York based Jacques Renault opens up a jar of jam with his edit for “Atlantis” and sets the mood right for a sugary sunset. And when it comes to unbridled funkyness who else the Amsterdam based Marcel Vogel would do a better job by editing “Corre Caminos” (also off Grau's “El Leon Bailarin” album)? His restoration work shines with authenticity and accuracy for modern dance floors.

With the digital download you get again an incentive: “Funky Bit-Bop” (off the 1983 released “440 Toker” LP) is getting stripped by Mark E to the bone only to pumped up again to become a brute little tigress painting clubland red.

Daniel Grau can be quite proud of by who, and how his legacy has been worked with. Let's hope this is inspiration for him to produce even more, fresh, fantastic music.

It's time for a new act to make their debut on Graded and Solitary Dancer is the Montreal producer you're going to want to make yourself acquainted with. The 'Desire & Apathy' EP has received a hefty amount of support across the board, with selectors like Ben UFO, Roman Flügel and Axel Boman drawing for it in their sets.

We present the title-track now as a premiere and if you're a fan of staggered, broken beat electro that's steeped in nostalgia then you're really going to dig this. Take a hint of Drexciya and Dopplereffekt and add in some serene synths and bellowing, low-end bass stabs and you've got Solitary Dancer's first ever offering.

We Live As One

Following their eponymously titled 2016 arrival on Midland's Graded imprint, as well as a recent follow-up on Dark Entries, @Solitary-Dancer return to the label on which they made their debut. Once again, this three-track 12” blends electro, ambient, and acid to superb, undeniably modern effect. 

With a running time of nearly 12-minutes, the title track 'Transmitting To Heaven' is an ambitiously sweeping cut that subtly moves through its various shades, from electro and acid, to strobe-lit 90s rave.

The B-side kicks off with 'Birth of Saturn', built around an arpeggiating synth that shifts and morphs throughout the track as the intensity ascends. The 12” closes off with 'At The End Of The Corridor Of Love, A Loss', a slow burning ambient piece that is as sombre as it is cinematic.

Matias Aguayo & Justin Strauss @ The Lot Radio (Oct 10, 2018)

Nuclear Dragon

Natural Selection originated as a weekly radio show, on the magnificent LRSfm in Leeds, with a supporting Friday night slot in Leeds student union’s Terrace bar and has continued as a series of irregular events, mixes and podcasts ever since.

Originally founded by Bobby Parafino in 2003, the show aimed to showcase an eclectic selection of worldwide beats and treats, a philosophy carried on by Horace James after he took up the reins two years later.

Featuring a host of guest appearances and mixes from Leeds’ most loved DJs and musicians, Natural Selection’s successful mix of everything from jazz, house and disco, to hip-hop, soul, latin and afrobeat built up a loyal following and culminated in a nomination for the national SRAs specialist music show.

This blog aims to showcase that same eclectic style of alternative dance floor fodder and to promote those nights, DJs, artists and events that continue to thrill and inspire ten years down the road.

Nowadays, you can find Horace producing the fortnightly Takeover sessions on Manchester’s Reform Radio.
