Paying homage to the first documented conjoined twin brothers, 'Siamese Twins Records' are a label based in Thailand run by Sunju, Johan, and Taychin from Karma Klique, with Yoshi from 禁 JIN Records. ST are fast becoming a recognised home for authentic, tribally rooted sounds introducing Asian artists and creating symbiotic dialogues with producers around the globe - "Two Heads, One Path, One Pace".

We premiere the bonus track of this remix package, and one we featured in our February monthly Balamii show. It comes in the form of the "Eternal Injection Rework" - a trance inspired peak time builder, which steadily meanders through the eccentric landscapes and hypnotic blends of the original track. The whole package as a whole is most definitely worth checking out too, with reworks from Full Circle (aka Joakim and Alexis Le-Tan) and S.O.N.S under his SYO moniker.

It seems Gestalt Records are going to end the year on a strong note, not that anyone, keeping an eye on this bustling outfit, would expect otherwise. In just over 3 years of existence they have released a number of stellar EPs from producers with fresh ideas and elegant sounds. Encompassing trippy progressive, leftfield house, hypnotic breaks and everything in between - the Tallinn-based label has created a signature sound which we’re big fans of here at Bolting Bits. And it is obvious that the latest addition to their ranks will fit right in.

For their 25th release, Gestalt Records have recruited Ed Hodge, who has previously released on Distant Horizons, White Peach and Dansu Discs. Hailing from the city of Birmingham, he also makes up ½ of Mother Of Pearls, his partner being the impeccable Tom Jarmey. A true man of culture, Ed is a fully trained saxophonist/clarinettist and his output is laced with classical influences. And this release is a classic Gestalt Records 4-tracker - filled with surging beats, pacey atmosphere and progressive soundscapes.

Clocking in at just over 6 minutes, the title track ‘Zest’ was clearly created with a club setting in mind. The 127 BPM piece starts subtly but soon evolves into a rollicking number that features a number of ups and downs, sure to get listeners moving - whether that’d be on the dancefloor or under the table. The elevating synth line, coupled with relentless percussion and an obscure but catchy vocal sample holds ground and leads the way for the remainder of this forward-thinking release. Whether it’s the ethereal ‘Black Flag’, gritty ‘Genesis’ or acid-infused ‘The Secret History’, each track on the ‘Nassau’ EP features enthralling sound design and is ready to be put to the test, by the wide-eyed dancers around the world.

LUXE “Mineral & Moss”

Tech-virtuoso and London local LUXE finds a sonic sanctuary on Planet Euphorique with her EP Mineral & Moss. The 5 sleek cuts of liquescent club music dissolve boundaries of genre, dabble in speeds and dance with the digital devil to affirm why she is spearheading the new-gen UK rave renaissance. Launching with ethereal exploration A Team, the matured minimal infrastructure paves the way for feminine flourishes in melody and timbre, a signature asset contagiously flowing throughout the record all the way to the buoyant mind-melting closer Pixie Swamp.  A highly conceptualized and rounded sound undoubtedly suited for any stage, star gaze, soiree or séance.

Adam Pits - Grounded EP 

A1 Schtoopbloop
A2 Tiptoe
B1 Tiptoe (Konduku remix) 
B2 Grounded

Adam Pit’s Grounded EP sees the space•lab favourite exploring deeper, techno-inspired terrains. Opening track, ‘Schtoopbloop’ traces mystical synth lines and expansive vocals, underpinned by a satisfyingly substantial, driving baseline. Track two, ‘Tiptoe’, enters Pits’ iconic breaksy palette - equal parts dreamy and slick, this is the wipeout soundtrack for the next century. On the flipside, Konduku dips his toe into remix duties, offering up a shimmering, spiralling rework of the original. Finally, closing up the release, title track ‘Grounded’ growls into view, rising from sub-heavy foundations into dubby, treacle-speed sounds.

A1 - Lotus Island
A2 - Lotus Island (Feral reconstruction)
B1 - Torre De Alquimia
B2 - Prism of Nature

Presenting ‘Lotus Island EP’ by Forest on Stasys, a record that seamlessly weaves through the tapestry of the deep techno landscape. We kick off with the title track, ‘Lotus Island,’ a hypnotic journey characterised by rolling percussion and menacing synths. Feral then adds his reconstruction, plunging the listener into a dark, swampy realm, reimagining the original with his unique signature sound.

Next up is ‘Torre De Alquimia,’ a spacious, haunting track that rolls through techno terrains with an enigmatic allure, evoking a sense of mystery and suspense throughout. Closing the EP is ‘Prism of Nature,’ a brighter, melodic workout that serves as a serene conclusion to this wonderfully deep record.
