Our artist of the year for 2022 @Crackazat has continued his golden run in 2023 delivering some of his finest work to date popping up on Nervous, Local Talk, Heist, Closer to Truth and Sub_Urban with originals and remixes aplenty. Now he's back with his first Mini Album / extended EP of the year 'Senses' arriving on @heistrecordings and it's a perfect match of artist and label.

Featuring 6 tracks fusing everything from Chill out and Broken Beat to deep Jazz infused house and club focused deep house gems it's another mighty statement EP delivering yet again on Crackazat's incredibly warm live house sound.

Our premier from the EP today is Freddie's Groove a throbbing loopy hypnotic deep rollercoaster of a track with bass stabs, swirling vocals, Chandler-esque percussion and smokey brass. With nods to both Freddie Hubbard and Pepe Bradock it's an invigorating combination.

SOYUZ (СОЮЗ) stole our hearts back in 2022 when we released their album Force Of The Wind to critical acclaim. Here we proudly present the predecessor to that LP, the band’s sophomore long player from 2019 that was previously only available digitally. It captures a pivotal evolving period in the band's career, the recordings giving a snapshot of what would become their sound on Force Of The Wind, yet with echoes of avant-psychedelic-pop footprints from yester years.

Produced at a time when band leader Alex Chumak had moved from Minsk to Kyiv, torn between the need to try something new and the homesickness it brought about. Travelling back to Minsk almost weekly, Alex joined fellow band members Mikita Arlou and Stanislav Murashko to lay down II at Studio 42. The album captures these transient feelings, contextualised through the broad scope of influences the band were nourished by. From MPB to Ethio-Jazz and the Italian library soundtracks of Piero Piccioni and Piero Umiliani, the album shines with touches of joy from across the globe.

The opening track 'Verocai' is a tribute to the Brazilian maestro and 'Mirouze', whilst being named after a French favourite of the band, Jean-Pierre Mirouze, pays clear homage to Milton Nascimento and Lô Borges. A ghostly sample and invisible connection to music made miles away in a different era that has influenced and become part of the band’s lives. This is further reinforced in the album's enchanting closer, the aptly titled 'Nascimento', another nod to the great Brazilian musician and singer.

The beginnings of the cinematic, soul-laden jazz SOYUZ are now known for, are on display across the likes of ‘Lyric’ and 'Motive I'. The latter an orchestrated jazz instrumental with sensuous string sections, all of which were recorded on the warmth of a Studer reel-to-reel and waltzing Rhodes keys.

SOYUZ’s wide-ranging palate is further demonstrated in tracks like ‘Business Partners’ with its Krauty, kosmische, new wave production featuring Inturist, and the oh-too-short Anatolian-influenced interlude 'Corrida'. Elsewhere, 'Tezeta' and ‘ES-2 Jazz’ hint at the psychedelic haze of soul-funk, with the former featuring verses from Serbian rapper Petar Martic.

For this new physical and digital release, the whole album was mixed from scratch by Ryan Power before Joker worked his magic on the remaster. More excellence is to come from SOYUZ, but in the meantime, we are thrilled to present this essential recording from the band’s foundational years, mixed to a level that does it the justice it deserves.

The first solo production from @max-graef in 2018 sees him taking on 
@oscarjerome, one of London's brightest songwriting prospects. A dub-infused, percussive workout, layered with tape textures and only the faintest hints of the original instrumental.

North Londoner Hugo Mari isn’t your run-of-the-mill house producer. If you’ve been following his output since his days under the alias Books, you’ll know him to be an accomplished and versatile producer with an appreciation for music in a variety of genres. Following releases on both Heist and Freerange Recordings, “Minds Eye” see’s Hugo returning from the mountain top with two beautifully created and emotive jams, once again taking the helm of his own High Praise imprint, on a departure from their usual edit format.

The EP as a whole is excellent, and “Mind’s Eye” sees Hugo once again join forces with three-time collaborator Zodiac, delivering a soul-drenched, mysterious and hazy jam in his unmistakable falsetto vocal styling.

On the flip, “Kokiri Forest” is a masterclass in chilled-out deep house ripe for a variety of environments. Hugo has a knack for fusing organic elements with driving rhythms and emotive melodies, crafting versatile material that works beautifully either at home or on the dance floor. Personally, I think this would rip in the club, and I’ll be saving it for those late-night moments when eyes are shut and bodies are moving through the haze of an after-hours dancefloor.

Keep an eye out for the drop on December 6th and pre-order it here. In the meantime, add Hugo Mari to your list of producers to pay attention to.
