Mix The Lemon #5: Coordinate

Hackney native Eliza Rose has learned everything she knows from her local soundscape. Growing up on the 2-step and 4x4 rhythms of UK Garage (citing the sounds of Lovestation’s Teardrops and B-15’s Girls Like Us as her first true garage experience) and spending her spare time listening to artists such as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and other jazz and soul associated artists has provided the platform for one of London’s leading lights to truly shine - whether it be through house, garage, mo-town, soul or funk - seamlessly blending eras and sounds together through retro-modern vocals and productions on her own Rosebud Recordings.

There couldn’t be a more fitting artist to celebrate Lobster Theremin’s milestone 100th release with, having been a part of the Lobster family for some time now through a long-standing friendship and record shop & label responsibilities, and alongside emerging label affiliate M4A4 the pair deliver 4 killer cuts of 2-step, house-garage and jungle fitting of the moment.

“With Shades of Red I wanted to combine my love of Jazz style vocals alongside my love for UK garage in a way that still felt authentic for both sounds”, she says. “I'm very interested in revamping and presenting the ‘old skool’ for a new audience while hoping that the people who do have respect for these more retro sounds will also appreciate the tracks. For example the lyrics ‘such an uneasy evil' ect in Nyt lyf is a nod to the track of the same name which is one of my favourite Jazz standards.”

‘Night Lyf’ is a bass-driven bouncer; romantic lyricism, skippy beats and punchy production makes for an easy-listening groove that could just as easily go off in the club, while ‘Delectable’ sees Eliza marry lounge-jazz vocalisation with M4A4’s joyous blend of UK and US garage - inspired, uplifting and joyous.

‘Temptation’ is a celebration of the Hackney melting pot; meandering through blues, soul, jazz, house and garage in a contemporary blend of old and new, before a late-night rush in the rave is inspired by the 160 breakbeats and lairy basslines of ‘Troublemaker’s jungle riddim.

LT100 // Eliza Rose & M4A4 - Shades of Red

Harrison BDP’s carefully curated and otherworldly approach to dance music is unmatched. Time spent in his countryside home in South Wales has given way to some of his most playful yet thought-provoking work to date. Now the Welsh DJ and producer debuts on MÖRK, combining elements of classic house styles and futuristic soundscapes - locking listeners in a voyage you’ll never want to end. 

Title track ‘Stand Your Ground’ is a seasoned helping of vintage BDP. Rolling snares lock eyes with sprawling acid leads and non-material aesthetics, while the track's foundation comes from the warm, skippy bassline from which every other element answers to. ‘All That’s On My Mind’ spans nine minutes of enhancement, as dense grooves cross paths with rays of sunshine that melt between the trees. Dreamy vocals ascent above the emerald forest acting as our guide. 

‘I Thought I Would Be Different But I Feel The Same’ the title of a track many of us can relate to, is a self reflective piece perfect for late-night strolls and early morning observation, before the record comes to a close with ‘I Made A New Friend Today’. Aquatic synths soar above a stripped back groove, oozing optimism and class, all the while still shrouded in the mystery and depth we’ve come to expect from one of electronic music's most consistent producers.

Stand Your Ground

MÖRK021 // Harrison BDP - Stand Your Ground

Meanjin (Brisbane) based artist Scalymoth comes steaming through for this week’s LT Podcast with a high energy mix that swiftly moves between bass rollers, percussive techno and playful vocal samples. Don’t sleep!

In Scalymoth's words:
One of my fears (thoughts?) is that I only have two ears and a finite amount of time to listen to all the good music in the world. With that in mind, this mix pays homage to as many of my current favourites as I possibly could fit in an hour, no specific genre (and one of my tracks because like, 'look at me go mum' etc). I hope that this BIG CLURB ENERGY mix will tide you over until we can be back dancin' and ravin' again like it's 2019.
