Tingling my middle-eastern background right there son

Tracks on. Brain off.

Massive Music is the new massive mixtape from MM. It’s Dumb Dance Music – DDM – don’t think too hard about it. The EP draws on tribal house, raptor house, Dutch bubbling sounds and heavy filter techno to create six tough ‘n hard drum tools.

MM - Tompocalypse

It's getting hot in here with three new perreo cuts from Miami's finest Nick León.

Following a string of self-released EPs and an appearance on NAAFI, Nick León returns to Tra Tra Trax later this week - recalling the first sonic encounters on the radio when they were kids and sampling vocals from some of their childhood idols. He's also invited Henzo, Kelman Duran and Maral to put their spin on the tracks. 

Nick León previously released on Tra Tra Trax last year with a collaborative record alongside Bitter Babe who made her production debut. He’s a prolific producer and sound designer in his own right, known for mixing organic textures with club polyrhythms and sci-fi sound design. One of our favourite producers, Nick is also affiliated with Space Tapes Miami and has worked on records with INVT, Lao, Kaxien, LTAV, PRJCTN and more. 

Based in Colombia, Tra Tra Trax is run by Nyksan, Defuse and Veracco and was launched in July 2020 with an EP from DJ Pai. Since then they have released records from Luca Durán and OCTUBRXLIBRV as well as featured remixes from Florentino, AYA, Ikonika, BADSISTA and more. 

‘Rompediscoteka’ by Nick León is out on the 1st October via Tra Tra Trax - pre-order here: https://tratratrax.bandcamp.com/album/rompediscoteka

Chants - Seven Spheres
APR1210 | Out Now

Digital: https://astralplanerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/seven-spheres

Across three EPs for Astral Plane Recordings, Chants has marked a development from relative novice to one of the club music world’s most distinctive voices. August 23 will see the release of Seven Spheres, the Madison-based artist’s first album since 2015 and his most accomplished work to date for the label.

Melding experience working in the New Orleans second line tradition with an acute passion for all forms of rhythmic acceleration, Chants suffuses Seven Spheres with both a coiled, premeditated energy and bursts of spontaneous joy. Largely recorded at home and with friends, the percussion heard throughout the album is imbued with a beguiling tension: improvisational in spirit, but also rigorously gridded out for DJ play.

Meticulously workshopped from the ground up, Seven Spheres grew out of a series of sound design-focused drum tracks that developed into full fledged anthems like “Filament” and “Muzzoline”. Further experiments in speed and sub bass juxtaposition begat “Seven Spheres” and “Assiah Dance”, the spiritual core of the record and two tracks that have been hammered in mixes and radio by us and others.

At eight songs, Seven Spheres is a tight bundle, built out of individual tracks that show a remarkable plasticity in relation to every other track on the album. Having experimented in texture, structure, and tempo, the album is stylistically broad, yet singular in approach: the result of a labor of love and a long-held desire to design dancefloor-functional music. Seven Spheres is out on all digital platforms on August 23.

Chants - Assiah Dance [APR120]

@amorsatyr
@siumata

Hailing from Paris, duo Amor Satyr & Siu Mata make their debut on NHS with two mutated dance hall inspired cuts laden with manic energy and seriously hard drum work. Following up their debut collaboration on Hiedrah Club de Baile comprised of two tracks focused on the 150bpm range, the pair slow down things to around the 100bpm mark. This has no effect on the frantic energy however, as both releases maintain a level of madness through the double time percussion programming and warped melodic aesthetics; an offering of truly innovative club tracks from these two fine producers.
