On February 25th, Palms Out will release the first in a series of compilations on cassette and digital. Titled plainly: "End Broken Windows", 100% of the proceeds of the series will go to charity in an effort to raise awareness about broken windows policing methods. Specifically, I hope this project contributes in some small way to spreading the word about the ways in which policing and prosecuting low-level offenses serves only as a way of terrorizing and traumatizing vulnerable populations, without achieving the intended goal of preventing violent crime. The theoretical premise of broken windows policing is fundamentally flawed, and woefully misguided -- there is no evidence that focusing police power on low level violations like sex work, loitering, minor vandalism, petit theft, minor drug offenses, etc. leads to any reduction in violent crime. The practice must end.

Each volume of the series will benefit a different charity doing work to counteract the effects of broken windows policing; all it really does is criminalize being black, trans, queer, young, unhoused, etc. The first volume will benefit the SBB National Sex Worker Bail Fund (swopbehindbars.org/donate). Sex workers are often intersectionally and inordinately affected by broken windows policing, and should never be forced to spend a single night in jail merely for exercising agency over their own bodies.

Musically and conceptually, this record is inspired by a place where broken windows policing is disproportionately felt: the subway/metro. I gave all of the artists the vague prompt to write music inspired by the NYC subway system -- and the results were expectedly varying. For this volume, I pursued artists who have been generally exploring midtempo dance music without focus on 4 to the floor drum patterns. The result was a collection of largely breakbeat-oriented songs, some with direct classic NYC & Detroit electro references, others with more melodic and euphoric UK hardcore inspiration, and others still that kind of split the difference between modern bass and Baltimore club (for lack of better descriptors).

PREMIERE: Disaffected - Sublimation [Palms Out Sounds]

I first heard the original "Full Disclosure" while paroozing the cloud of sounds about a month ago. A deep, jazzy and soulful tune produced by Jonathan Grusauskas aka sTimULS cLan of "lespecial" with vocal accompaniment by Hayley Jane of "Hayley Jane and the Primates". The lyrics describe Haley's experience with what she believed to be an extra terrestrial. Haley's captivating voice immediately triggered a string of emails between Jon and I concluding with the project file in my possession. This remix begins organically, mellow and very much terrestrial. It slowly double times itself and culminates on a distant martian planet. With still so very much to learn, I'm gaining more confidence in my arranging and mixing skills and will be releasing much more original music this year.

Hardcore and breakbeat were one of the first distinctly UK music styles to come out of the UK rave scene, and they helped to elevate much of rave culture’s most identifying features, from the costumes to the CG-heavy flyers. Born out of the early ’90s when artists like SL2, Altern-8 & Top Buzz were pushing breakbeat into harder-edged territories and despite its central role in birthing the culture, it still doesn’t receive much respect in the dance music community. Why is that, it’s hard to tell, but our parents hated it, that’s for sure. 

A true child of 90’s breakbeat, Meri (from the legendary Rulers Of The Deep duo) has been crafting his skill since the first wave of acid and breakbeat landed in Europe. Getting his first decks from a local gangster (who was later found dead) in his native Estonia during the Soviet times was not an easy task so that tells already a lot about his passion. When talking about Meri’s music or style, although Meri is mostly known as a house music artist due to his ROTD connection, that’s not the whole picture. His roots are closely tied with techno and breakbeat, more often you can hear him play techno now as Meri. 

For us the the ultimate message of hardcore and breakbeat is fun. Some musics are made to get a political message across. Some musics are great at putting a whole futuristic ‘we’re moving music forward’ message across. Some musics are the deepest thing on the planet. But breakbeat and classic hardcore and electro, that’s just made for dancing and we respect the approach Meri has towards his music; grimey, yet fun and danceable.

Ovoid - Creazion

Look closely at a 2003 documentary on Dillinjah's Valve Sound System and you can catch a babyfaced soundcloud.com/lmajor brocking out in a whirl of ginger dreadlocks. 

The locks are long gone, but the love of a twisted out bassline has driven an addiction to production that has seen him move from drum and bass (as part of a successful threesome) to his current defining solo output. Mixing d&b breakbeat science and bass mechanics with the hardcore and garage of his Essex upbringing, he's leading the next generation pushing theses palettes into new tempos and forms. 

As one half of soundcloud.com/wearelocalgroup he's also a resident DJ at UK festival Field Maneuvers, in 2017 supporting a roll-call of original rave heroes including Mark Archer, Storm and Groove Chronicles. 

'Omega Point', his debut solo EP, launches the label Ecstasy Garage Disco with four 140bpm jungle-inspired rinse outs. Get set for the rewind.

Boston-based producer Saltus highlights his experimental artistic perspective with his latest single, Convergence. Haunting and beautiful, the track possesses a fitting name to match its unique artistic convergence of innovative soundscapes. Certain, familiar musical qualities come to mind with glitchy transitions, heavy dark basslines, and echoing vocals; however, this track harnesses a distinct and uncommon feeling. Saltus' crisp sound design takes this song to a world all of its own.

Three years after his visionary “Desert Horizon” single on Infusion, Vol. 3, Australia-based Chamberlain returns to Gravitas Recordings with Ancient Technology. Heavy basslines are tethered with organic acoustic atmospheres to create stomping beats across six mystical heaters. Featuring a collaboration with Projekt CC and an official remix by Zebbler Encanti Experience, Ancient Technology is a collection of work that centers around themes and cultural experiences tied into Chamberlain’s musical expression. Through revisiting the past, Ancient Technology invigorates those to embrace innovation and open the door for further artistic developments.
 
Atmospheric technological scans commence in “Lippy” as a whomping banger shortly ensues. Venturing through the wilderness, “Jungle Whispers” encircle you in a glitch ambush as worldly strings accompany the capturer. Things soon turn to “Dust” when otherworldly, thumping bass infiltrates the immersive environment. Exploring the territory, “Jellyfish” continuously rebound within the inky surface waters. When night begins to fall, Chamberlain enlists Projekt CC to share “Stories Under Stars” about a powerful quest through heavy sound dynamics. Zebbler Encanti Experience remixes “Dust” to offer an accelerated extension of the original, powering down Ancient Technology.
