An elusive producer comes back with a new mantle: Ruff Cherry, last seen on the label in 2017, returns with an EP of shredded halftime drum & bass with jungle accents that etches out a dominating stance in the producer’s first foray outside the thresholds of techno. Hugely distant from a meager first stab at the genre, the Cork-based producer’s ‘Phantom Fortress’ EP proficiently demarcates a sparse battleground for conflicting and rhythmically harmonic drum flairs, enveloping bass, and taut sound design that is as compelling as it is exhilarating.

Dreams, an artist known for his label & event series Private Selection, is set to release his first record since 2020 on a new label he founded this year, called Dance Data. 

The B side, 'Vessel', marks one of his first releases at this velocity - each groove feels hypnotic and gives weight into the next moment. A blistering saw bassline tightly sits on top of live recordings of brazilian percussion – and the dark and tribal energy fits the A-side as a perfectly paired, yet still unanticipated counterpart. As his first offering since a 2020 hiatus, it is refreshing to see Dreams pulling from his roots with 'Paraxotica' while also coming in with a more organic approach as is heard on 'Vessel'.

Pre-orders for the 12" vinyl are available now, which come with a custom hand made insert.
Vinyl release date: Feb 2023

The A side can be heard in full on Dance Data's bandcamp

"Óperencia" is a mythical land that exists in Hungarian folklore and literature, often portrayed as a distant, fantastical realm, beyond the remote "Óperenciás" sea. In various tales, it is depicted as a place of magic, inhabited by legendary creatures, brave heroes, and daunting challenges.

W133 proudly presents its next vinyl release, another split EP on the label, this time by Dutch
artist Bruecke and Australia’s very own ADMINISTRATOR.
The A side, crafted by Bruecke, features 2 tracks. The opener, “Sketch”, is a tribal groover
smoothly guiding you into the EP. On A2, we have the banging “StrangersMask”, rolling in with
heavy bass and forward-pushing vocal snippets.
On the flip side, ADMINISTRATOR shows us shows us how beautifully weird techno can be: B1,
titled “ioshieldJITTRs”, is a 4/4 stomper with a bouncy bassline and freaky melodies. B2 serves as
the emotional closer of the EP, a journey track with syncopated kick drums and uplifting pads,
making you feel like traveling through time to find oneself.
For the first time on this EP, we also feature a digital Bonus Track: ADMINISTRATOR delivers
another treat with "post_Proto", where high-pitched arpeggios and distorted pads are sure to give
everyone goosebumps.
The artwork photo is by Philipp Roth.
The release is scheduled for June 14th as a limited 12” dubplate run and on all digital stores and
streaming platforms.
