Tiptoes makes a welcome return to SlothBoogie Records this November with a fresh four-track EP, entitled ‘The Akai Samurai Strikes Again’.

Glasgow’s Tiptoes has long been a respected name in the Scottish electronic music circuit, bringing his eclectic style to the table as a DJ, blending everything from jazz to jungle, house to techno, garage, broken beat and many more genres. His productions are a nod to his many influences and once again with this EP were treated to an amalgamation of sounds. The project follows on from his recent acclaimed EP on Darius Syrossian’s Moxy Music entitled ‘Cuss Tomato’.

‘Techno Woo’ leads the way and see Tiptoes embracing a filter house feel, merging a number of choppy funk licks, vocal chants, and bass lines in an ever-unfolding dynamic matter, while dusty drums carry the bouncy groove throughout. ‘Brotherman’ then tips the focus on to soul drenched guitar lines, brass melodies, snaking bass grooves and hypnotic vocal lines alongside loose, swinging percussion.

Opening the flip side is ‘Mars Landings’, embracing a deeper house aesthetic courtesy of hazy Rhodes chords,
swelling vocal loops and organic drums before ‘Strings’ rounds things out, as the name would suggest the
composition is built around expansive string melodies, gritty bass stabs and sturdy, thunderous drums.

Inspired by the Hip – Hop, Soul and Funk Cultures, it was during 1994 following an event by Futuria Production, that Joe Gormann aka Phonic discovered his passion for electro-music.
His style of music has been influenced by mix’s from various DJ’s such as Laurent Garnier, Derrick May, Jeff Mills , Kévin Sanderson, Colin Dale, Jay Haze, Ricardo Villalobos, Dj T. aka Thomas Koch, Ron Trent and Josh Wink to name but a few.
Close to the Annecy Scene in France and its key players: Miloch, Ralph, Sebastopol and many others….. Phonic became a fan of the record store Interzone (managed by DJ Paton & Alex K from Tekmics Records).Over time, and with regular work, the promotion identity “Phonic” was born, and this then led to him mixing his first seminal records. In collaboration with Sebastopol, Phonic organised a night to remember called “Rills Night”, which included the first French appearance of Rino Cerrone (Rilis /MB Electronics /Synewave ). Thanks to his Underground musical influences, Phonic offers a varied and eclectic mix that is constantly evolving such as: Dub Techno, House and Techno Groovy.

His recent public appearances, next to numerous DJ’s such as D'Julz (Poker Flat), Electric Rescue (Skryptôm), David Caretta (Gigolo), AHM Trick (Les Nuits Rouges), Jun'X (CITIZEN), D'Jamency (Communiquer Records), Anton X (UMF), Sebastopol (STEREOCENTER)...make Phonic a promising DJ/Producer – definitely one to watch.
