Its official: spring has sprung, bringing with it a new offering from Allergy Season, “Split Wig”— 4 brain-rattling, breakbeat-laden tracks by OSSX.

OSSX is the pairing of New Jersey-based producers Lektor Scopes & EQUISS. Already known for a slew of self-released edits, the duo take things to head-clearing heights with their debut EP of original tracks. Experience de- and re-constructing tracks for dance floor efficiency is on display across these ecstatic, bottom-heavy cuts. Essential gear from two club-wise voices.

Mastered by Kevin McHugh at Valence Studios. Artwork by Reza Hasni.

Fatherhood - Raw Honey

After a bit of a pause, Andrea returns with an invigorated sense of funk and a bad case of scuffed shelltoes. A generation after Chicago House irreversibly infected the Northern club scene, Andrea soaks up and sweats out the latest footworking Chi-town developments with a distinctive melodic flourish and innate feel for the floor. 'Retail Juke' keenly latches on to that feeling of delirious suspension that marks the best productions from RP Boo, Roc, Nate or any of those agile young cats, matching their flighty rhythm programming toe-for-toe, while tweaking the vibes with a fine-cut pop sensibility. It opens up with an impatient metronome and sparkling Rhodes keys ushering in spasmodic sample edits and unregimented drums, honing that slow-fast thing that’s impossible to describe and so bizarrely effective. On the flip, 'Write-Off' sounds like an Ice Cream van taking a wrong turning and ending up wheel-deep in some hyperrealist dayglo forest without SatNav or a working sense of direction to hand. It finds that filigree balance of tension between rapid-fire sample textures, twinkling melodies and dragging bass undulations, keeping an implosive, centripetal sense of funk deep in the pocket and yet still quite melancholy in its own fidgety way.

Monica [Pressures EP] OUT NOW

The chitter chatter buzzed and echoed in the headset as she began to dose off and fall asleep.

The phone had been ringing all day long and her patience was thin by this point. The voices, their endless reverberation bounced between her ears as the fuzz of the phoneline and the static crackled unpleasantly. Anyways, what use was the job to her? Why should she sit and listen to the complaints and angst of others? This was not her life, it was time for something new, a fresh beginning. 

Loraine James has been a favourite for a while now, ever since we first heard her killer album on Hyperdub we have been steadily following each movement, be that compilation features or mixtapes. She has a singular sound, an off centre appeal and releases music which is reminiscent of old school pirate radio and rough tapes. We love it. 

Her latest appearance is on the newly launched label protopost and it needs no more introduction.
