Italian label ALLEY VERSION continues its 'Tracks From The Alley' series of releases with a fourth instalment in which it continues to explore the oblique edges of the jackin zone, dragging recognisable primitive elements of dance music through the narcotic madness; a possible soundtrack for sleepless nights at the skate park. 

In this new volume, the Japanese producer Takeshi Kouzuki, who besides having participated in the previous instalments, has been, together with FLML, the most collaborative artist in this project, is missing. We should bear in mind that the first volume of 'Tracks From The Alley' was a split album between both projects. On the other hand, this new 4-track mini-compilation features the Greek DJ/producer DimDj, the Italian producer based in Berlin and part of Sons Of Traders, TANS, the Brazilian based in Portugal and owner of the Unrealistic Expectations label Nothing Was There, and the FLML brothers, owners of ALLEY VERSION.

Nothing Was There is Edvan Marques Ferreira, aka MVQX. The project was born to be the output of all his live-cassette recordings and that's the case of the track 'The Owl (House Slaughter)', a raw combo of jackin beats and industrial music, recorded with two machines and a delay pedal directly into a cassette tape.

Release date: March 20th, 2024.

Premiere: Nothing Was There - The Owl (House Slaughter) [ALLEY VERSION]

"Flaming Jesus Dial-up are a band consisting of Italian brothers Francesco and Marco Leoci,
already part of the post-jackin'beats duo FLML and founders of the label Alley Version.
Francesco and Marco were born in Brindisi, where began to have their first music experiences playing in a
teenage punkrock band.
They moved to Bologna, where currently live, to complete studies in fine arts, at the same time they involved
in experimental projects of sound art and multimedia.
The FJD project took shape in 2023 while Francesco and Marco had fun experimenting in their studio
with modified guitars, analog synthesizers and drum machine.
The tracks resulting from these sessions, incorporating an erratic, loose and transgressive aesthetic,
consist of noisy hallucinatory soundscapes, often coupled with slow infectious rhythms and gloomy
soundtrack-style motifs."

Takeshi Kouzuki is back on Alley Version with this superb four-tracker EP. House music at its best, starting from the basics laid out by Chi-masters like Larry Heard, Marshall Jefferson, liquefied in the typical mesmeric touch of this Japanese legend.

Fashion Flesh is the solo output moniker of John Talaga, based in Bay city, Michigan - USA.
Undoubtedly the perfect artist for the inaugural release of Adult Version, the Alley Version's experimental side label.

He's renowned for his unique sound that combined experimental rough energy with surreal dysfunctional pop factors.
Distinctive approach to electronic analog equipment played a crucial role in shaping his signature sound.
Most of the instruments used are self-built and customized.

Asexual Bondage is a 7 tracks cassette and digital album, which opens with the preformed and reformed
samba-stic jubilee kicks in the jams of self-reassurance and esteem to the moon-child through 'Bold Astral Temperance'.
'Self-Discipline' reaches through the art of example without being preachy, pushy or puckered.
'Don’t Blow Up' suggests you do not, through the soft distractions of a rain shower on moods varied.
'Mimicry' lets you be yourself, to not live a mocking bird of prey nor a vulture of ideas.
'The Voice of God' is the voice of an atheistic John the Baptist with his attempt to bond the blind faith believers
of the universe. To experience a united non-linear yet heart felt existential state of ecstasy with the random
godhead gobblers this reality over.
'Brass Heels' steps on your hands and turns you on.
'Asexual Bondage' bravely champions the flowering chains of love between those that do not only fuck.

The cassette is a very limited edition, not to be missed considering its delicious artwork made by John Talaga himself and Francis Thayer. 

Mastering:  Marco Leoci
