Wilba - Retracing The Steps [STRWB014]

Tracklist: 

A1. Wilba – Insecure Jack
A2. Wilba – Chug Town
B1. Wilba – Freaks of Nature 
B2. Wilba – Elephant in the Room

Returning for a full EP under the new solo alias, Wilba brings fresh twist on his trademark Duowe sound, reimagined through a more emotive and immersive lens. Inspired by sets seen over festival season, this latest offering brings four moody cuts that blur the lines between Electro and Tech House.

Stripped-back drum grooves, rumbling basslines, and echo-laced synths designed to move bodies and minds deep in woodland rave clearings.

Retracing steps of old habits, this time with a few new tricks.

Label: Coin-Op Records
Cat No: COP003

Tracklist: 

A1. Coin-Op
B1. Cold Sweet Beer

Spincycle are back on Coin-Op Records. To celebrate 25 years since writing it, they’re repressing their much sought after first release on Geek Records: Coin-Op/Cold Sweet Beer. Originally released as Geek#001, now repressed for the first time on Coin-Op#003. It’s Coin-Op on Coin-Op!!  

Coin-Op: 
“Alright alright let me take ya to the scene”. The original Coin-Op track inspired the new label name and is a techy dancefloor groover with addictive funky bass.

Cold Sweet Beer: 
“I’d give my god damn soul for just a glass of beer!” CSB hits a bit deeper with repetitive stabs and organs over a relentless groove.

Artist: Latent
Title: Neurodancer EP
Label: Sex Tapes From Mars
Cat No: SEXTAPE010
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist:

A1 - Break Machine
A2 - Distress Robot
B1 - Disco Hijack
B2 - Virtual Body


Sex Tapes From Mars presents Outdom Records' boss, LATENT, who shares a brand-new four-track EP that spars with breakbeat, electro, house, and left-field electronics, neatly centring them all into a steady, sexy collision. The record as a whole captures genuinely original-sounding, rough-edged b-boy breaking badness - nostalgic, but never polite. It's a few BPMs slower than Sex Tapes' last few outings, but no less effective. Arguably, it's more late '80s sounding than ever, although, in fact, it's a brand-new, stonking release that showcases the label's versatility and unpredictability. 

The opening track, "Break Machine", sets the pace with a clear nod to the '80s US group of the same name, bringing tidy drum workouts and clipped vocal samples that recall early Chicago, as well as choppy rave and street party energy at its most unfiltered. 

"Disco Hijack" pushes the clutch into a more functional gear, merging delay-heavy, druggy, chuggy, sludgy bass with more robotic vocoder tropes, sharing something playful but IDM and European skewed. It's a dancefloor tool with a wink - just the style this now accomplished label has made its identity. Oh, don't forget the amens and clattering jungle breaks. 1990 or 2040? Fuck knows.  

On "Distress Robot", pneumatic percussion and malfunctioning android chatter bring a darker, more mechanical edge, while "Virtual Body" closes with a spacious, garage-leaning shuffle that pulls the EP into recognisable contemporary yet still very much peak-time territory. 

LATENT gives lean grit, pushes the edges, and lets the tracks feel alive in their imperfections. It’s music that thrives on tension between old-school reference points and modern floor pressure.

Bristol's label head Elon Dust HAS done it again. 

Vinyl-only as per, don't sleep."

Latent - Neurodancer EP (SEXTAPE010)

Goodnight Botanica exists where sound becomes shelter. We believe music is more than expression, it is a vessel of care, a seed that can take root in distant soil. Each release is both offering and gesture, carrying the voices of artists outward while returning its fruits to those most in need. By weaving creativity into cycles of reciprocity, we aim to transform art into sustenance, connection into relief, and listening into an act of solidarity across borders.

Title: The Aquatic Genie
Label: Pager Records

Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist:

A1. Intro (Flying Carpet Airlines)
A2. Forever
A3. You Smell Like Fish
B1. Doyoulike2dance
B2. Rock The House



Pager Records returns with catalog number sixteen, dropping another essential slab of wax: The Aquatic Genie — a 5-track journey that blends house, disco, funk and a wink of humor — this time from Aladdin, a French DJ and Producer based in Lyon, coming in HOT with his unique approach to house music, influenced by jazz, funk and reggae. Drawing from these influences his sound feels fresh yet rooted in the DNA of Pager’s signature aesthetic.

Intro (Flying Carpet Airlines) – hazy lift-off joint, saturated samples and dubbed-out FX pulling you into a low-slung groove. Cosmic Lounge Energy…

Forever – breaky house with elastic low-end and vocoder shimmer that sneaks into your head. Pure sunrise material…

You Smell Like Fish – house on a g-funk trip! Funk-driven bass, warm keys, and talkbox heat bringing a modern boogie twist — guaranteed eyebrow-raiser.

Doyoulike2dance – straight-up party trigger with a smile. Funk-loaded drums and a hook that says it all. Pure body music.

Rock The House – stripped-down, Detroit-tinged funk workout to shut it down raw and sexy… 

Playful and funky — The Aquatic Genie keeps one foot in the house nation and taps the other into the disco world. Full of character, bounce, and club weight — another Sureshot from Pager for both DJs and Listeners <3

Limited Vinyl Pressing. Don’t sleep on it.

Aladdin - The Aquatic Genie (PAGER016)

The red sun sinks heavily behind the hills as the long days grow short and the evening shadows grow longer. Summertime seems distant now, a season of yesterday. Showered by the tangerine leaves of ancient trees and the whisper of the autumn breeze. The world is orange and crisp now, welcoming the harvest era and the beginnings of a new chapter.

Chapter 11, a story split in tandem following the tales of two fresh faces unseen and new. The first tale is told by Duncan Thomas, a classically trained jazz maven infiltrating the electronic music world with untapped finesse and a provocative flare. Showcasing a style of impeccable taste and analogue intricacies, his track ‘Dizzy’ sets the tone, leading the dance that will follow.

His contemporary is the equally eager Argentinian ace, Luciano Amaya. A stripped-back enigma of class and carefully chosen elements. His music feels fresh, surgeon-like and selective, with no sound out of place or unwanted space. He channels a more mystical sentiment, alluring and curious.

Two journeys, worlds apart, connected through corresponding quarter notes and a connection to the music that bonds them. Welcome to the eleventh edition. The master number of make believe, a world of kaleidoscopic colours and fallen leaves.
