Lag & X-Coast announce collaborative project XL Traxx.

Lag is a DJ/producer who has previously released on MORD, THEM, Elements, and Don’t since his first 12” in 2013. X-Coast has released on Steel City Dance Discs, Unknown To The Unknown and his own Riviera Records following his smash debut with the 90s-tinged ‘Mango Bay’ in 2016. Teaming up for the first time, the Serbian duo unleash their new project XL Traxx with a fierce three-track EP on Radio Slave’s Rekids.

Leading the release is the energetic ‘M-Bomb’, bringing heaving kicks, rave stabs, and vocal snippets together for a rowdy affair. On the flip, ‘E-Dancer’ sees clever sampling and atmospheric pads meet over pounding drums before the propulsive ‘D-Edge’ rounds out the vinyl with slick synthesis and shuffling percussion.

“We met around ‘96, trading secret codes for Mortal Kombat. In high school, we traded CDs with DAWs and mixes. We bought records at the same DJ store... These tracks were made in only a couple of sessions as we wanted to keep the raw energy intact. Expect a funky, energetic, overdriven, loopy sound: techno with a soul from Novi Sad, Serbia. This is not a release - it's a love story.” - Lag.

Tracklist:
A1 M-Bomb

Love Songs (Extended)

As Jennifer Cardini's Correspondent gears up for its forthcoming landmark 100th release, the label welcomes another inspiring talent to the fold: Belfast veteran Jordan Nocturne.

Following key releases on the likes of Permanent Vacation and System Records, this Correspondant debut hits all the right rave spots with unabashed euphoria and energy. The titles say it all…

'Moving Around' isn't a suggestion, it's an order as Jordan goes old school with rolling bass momentum and a humungous riffy breakdown that will have you breaking out in goosebumps from head-to-toe.

The same can be said for 'Turn it Out'. Another Nocturne order, this one comes with full-flavoured Italo elements and widescreen synth funk. Armed and charmed with gutsy vocals, it's time to rock the house… And Jordan's got just the right materials. Get moving!
