Jay Tripwire Bam! Its A Banana

Artist : Various Artists
Ep Title : OTG002
Label : Off The Grid Records
Cat. No. : OTG002
Release Date : June 2023
Format : 12”


Off The Grid unveils the second chapter of its label, this time with two tracks (A1 and B1) from Mataemon, an alter ego of Tolga Fidan, who puts his years of experience into forging two powerful cuts that balance the strengths of the past with the visions of the future, laying driving, deep and playful elements over steady grooves, raving straight from the heart. The A2 cut is the release debut of OG record collector and music enthusiast Matzo Sweetlife, a well kept secret on the outskirts of Brussels, who delivers a no-nonsense track of "machine soul", soft and dark, pure Detroit style. Rounding off the ep, the B2 marks the return of Oni-Ki (aka Onirik and Minoki) to wax after a short hiatus... this time with a solemn groover, confirming their consistently off-kilter approach, tinged with acid-jazz influences and emotional flights.

B2. Oni-Ki - Icarus

Another Bootshonk white label has surfaced from the Apollonia crew. Although we have no confirmation as to who's behind it, the name of the imprint pretty much says it all. Here's the A-side, "Troubled Times."

Bootshonk - Troubled Times

Release date : end March 2024

For the third VA of the Off The Grid label we have brought together the always dynamic expert DJ and producer tINI of Part of The Gang, co-owner of the elegant Berlin collective Overground Records, Rickie, GNMR, certified Italian "Dj Dynasty" owner of Dubblack Records and finally the promising hyperactive Belgian producer Session 4000. 

No room for melancholy this time, we dive straight into darker territories, jacking grooves, dark dub vibes and eerie hypnotic loops. 

Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Okain returns to Talman Records with a four-track EP, offering a glimpse into his two-decade journey as a producer. Continuing his legacy of providing DJs with robust dance floor material, this EP stays true to form.
Opening the EP is "Wake Up," a tribute to early 2000s tech house, featuring crisp percussion, sharp stabs, and haunting vocals. Following is "Take Me Up," capturing the essence of UK garage with its thick Reese bassline and distinct vocal hooks.

Turning to the flip side, the EP ventures into darker realms with "Secret Science," blending dub-inspired synths with a weighty sub-bass, perfect for late-night atmospheres. Closing the journey is "Swing Theory," a groove-driven track fusing minimal house elements into its infectious rhythm.

It was a huge effort to recover a decent sound from the vinyl. I extended the track so the verses and chorus blend more naturally into the mix. I'm absolutely loving it — let me know what you think
