Walker & Royce have defined their career with three simple words: Rules Don’t Apply. This ethos is reflected in their genre-straddling studio output, and in their eponymous radio show, which puts other risk takers on display. Now, Walker & Royce take Rules Don’t Apply to new heights with its new record label. The Splits series offers two singles from two artists that are paired and released as an EP. A nod to DIY punk bands releasing split 7-inch records, RDA aims to keep that collaborative spirit alive.

On "Animals", Walker & Royce and Ardalan form like Voltron to deliver a primal banger lathered with growls, thick lasers and searing synth licks. The track kicks off with an escalating progression, driven by a reverberating siren and nuanced whistles. “Animals” is more sample-driven than typical W&R releases, influenced by prodigal production up-and-comer, Ardalan. The collaboration embeds the feeling house lovers are eager to explore in the late hours - energizing listeners and dance floors to keep pushing.

On "When Will I See You", we witness yet another perfectly balanced collaboration from VNSSA & Lenny Kiser. Their memorable & iconic bass line is brilliantly complimented by Neon Super Black's vocals. The track charms with melodic elements and Arps, but channels a harder, driving energy.

03 - ASH & DASH - insight inside - (Skender daBalkanimal & Mel Hammond) - RIVA SESSIONS Live 2 Two

From the dust laden warehouses of Chicago emerges “Ash & Dash”.

The voluminous collaboration of Skender Makota and Mel Hammond.

Well respected in their own right, individually these two madmen have done more than most duos can conceive.
 

Skender Makota a.k.a. “The Balkanimal” has leant his talents to legends like Frankie Knuckles, Roy Davis Jr., Julius The Mad Thinker and The Monkeynuts Project.

This Berklee School grad is the multi-instrumentalist of “Ash & Dash”.

Delivering funky live and synth bass licks with heavy jazz filled keys atop signature drum programming  from Hammond.

 

Mel, the best kept Chicagoland secret, is known for his beat driven productions, which keep the dance floor moving, as well as deep spoken word vocals in all of the Ash & Dash productions, and other well known classics, such as “From Chicago to Paris”. 
The prose he provides is not only thought provoking but entertaining as well.

The group also has a few guest vocalists and players in rotation.

“Ash & Dash” delivers all of these elements in one futuristic sonic mélange.

El productor danés Azpecialguest regresa a Terranova Records con “The Inevitable”, una pieza que encabeza su nuevo EP y que confirma la línea más seria y técnica del sello. El track opera dentro del dark melodic techno, pero lo hace desde la precisión: ritmo hipnótico, diseño sonoro limpio y un crecimiento estructural que evita artificios para centrarse en la construcción de tensión real.

“The Inevitable” se sostiene sobre un motor percusivo estable, pads en expansión y texturas moduladas que se abren paso de forma gradual. No hay exceso de elementos, sino un uso calculado del espacio que permite que cada capa respire y mantenga la profundidad del conjunto. Su progresión —basada en detalles de síntesis y automatizaciones mínimas— lo convierte en un corte especialmente funcional para sesiones largas y atmósferas oscuras.

Con este lanzamiento, Terranova Records reafirma su compromiso con un sonido robusto y sin concesiones, mientras Azpecialguest entrega uno de sus trabajos más sólidos: técnico, directo y construido para perdurar.

J. Worra returns for 2020 to make her debut on Gorgon City’s Realm label alongside rising producer Codes. Combining their talents for 'Bounce Back' ft. Sophiegrophy, the pair have created a bass fuelled house anthem. Featuring energising vocals that soar over weighty subs, Sophiegrophy adds a touch of 90s groove to the release, whilst jamming percussion transforms 'Bounce Back' into a dance floor weapon.
