Neville Watson makes his DBA debut proper after appearing on Special Editions in 2013 with four rave-ready belters. Coming fresh from releases for ASOK’s Scenery label and Craig Richards’ The Nothing Special, Watson continues to explore the house sound of the UK, replete with bleeps, acid yells and basslines.

Amongst the track titles some will also note a tongue in cheek tribute to the UK’s least popular export, the Great British Douchebag. Gym-goers will be familiar with the Creatine quaffing, equipment-hogging lovers of fake tan who've forgotten to train their legs. Just remember though, underneath the stench of cheap aftershave and alcopops, these young men just want to dance like the rest of us.

DBA023 NEVILLE WATSON - NIGHT OF THE INFLATABLE MUSCLE HEADS

Out now on Vinyl only release: http://bit.ly/REKIDS112

A heartfelt dedication to his son Isaias, ‘Aspirations for Young Xol’ takes us through the life of a pillar in the electronic music community - Santiago Salazar. From his formative years spent in California to his connection with Detroit and the passing of a childhood friend, the long-player’s tracks signpost the musician’s significant experiences, both positive and negative. This meaningful body of work was released digitally on Pastel Voids and now Rekids release the album on wax.

‘Saturated Fear’ sets a deep tone for the LP, flanging melodies and echoing claps float through the composition before the album’s title track ‘Aspirations for Young Xol’ offers haunting arpeggios with occasional acidic overtones which are cleverly offset by beautifully designed lead synth transitions. ‘Bloodlines’ follows a similar musical vein with delayed bass riffs that are suspended above shimmering hihats and a weighted kick.

Santiago provides three beatless pieces throughout, which digress into more emotional territory whilst offering brief respite from his heavier drum work. ‘Xol’s Pain’ combines orchestral strings and swelling synthesisers which build tension with a subtly complex, evolving motif. Both ‘Dark Matter’ and ‘Ode to Stinson’ use arresting atmospheres, warped arpeggios and ethereal pads which lull the listener into a retrospective mood.

An intensity builds in the later tracks, a gritty but powerful low end provides a solid foundation in ‘Orange Blossom Thump”, eventually making way for a hectic and elastic lead synth before ‘Pachuco Dub’ displays drones that build a dissonant pressure in which the complex tom rhythms and rolling hi hats can grow. ‘Sarah Rivera’ hypnotises with its delectable chord progressions and complimentary melodies which seem to float above a rigid drum composition to close the album with style.

@johannesalbert is probably just under-the-radar enough to count as un unsung hero, but the Berlin-based DJ and Wilde Renate resident has been delighting dancefloors worldwide for almost a decade now. His most recent release, 'The Dancing Plague' EP, came out on Needwant in June and played host to four deliciously wonky summertime Italo cuts.

Johannes was at Love International earlier this month when he played the Renate boat party alongside Lauer and Peak & Swift. Bringing a dash of that Adriatic flavour to your Friday, we're very happy to present his set from that afternoon, which showcases both his range and ability to get the dancefloor grooving.

I'm back with 2 tracks after a prolific few months or so in the studio. 

'Monolith' has got some of that Italo House feel, but also some crunchy, driving drums. Ideal for the sunset before everything gets a bit more rowdy. 

'Fac' is a big room track, without the typical big room tropes or a sledehammer kick. Scattered with some skittering hats and a persistent guttural bass-line.

Get it over on Bandcamp: https://isaacreuben.bandcamp.com/album/fac
