LPB-RECORD

One-to-watch, Liam de Bruin steps back up to the Heard and Felt plate with the irresistible live house grooves of "Lavender".

Since the release of modern disco jazz funk number "Friday Evening" on Heard and Felt we've impatiently waited for more from this exciting musician and producer. Finally, under the guiding hand and ear of Heard and Felt label boss Ennio Styles (3RRR FM/Worldwide FM), Liam is readying an EP that set to explore his love of house music and live instrumentation, from disco, boogie and jazz funk angles."Lavender" is a deeper number than "Friday Evening'", embracing more synth tones and a slinky, sexy, late night feel. And just when you’re feeling settled in the spacey groove, you find it's been growing in all directions, twisting into a low-key disco jazz bounce.

Considering Liam's feel for live house, jazz funk, boogie, and so on, it's no surprise he has been embraced so quickly by fellow Melbourne artists that have inspired him, like Close Counters, Horatio Luna, Teymori and Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange. Also recommended for fans of fellow MIMS-favourites, like Malik Alston, Julien Dyne, Byron the Aquarius, Floating Points, Kyle Hall, Theo Parrish and Duke Hugh.

"Lavender" is released on October 15 on Heard and Felt.

It's been 10 years since the birth of Music Is My Sanctuary, and what a 10 years it’s been! Started in 2007 by Alexis Charpentier aka DJ Lexis in Montreal, Canada, Music Is My Sanctuary has been dedicated to discovering and presenting music often overlooked by mainstream music channels through articles, interviews, radio shows, DJ mixes, and events. 

The "10th Anniversary Compilation: Never Stop Digging" is an eclectic collection featuring 17 unreleased tracks from artists who all share the same vision and passion, and who represent the mentality and styles that Music Is My Sanctuary works to push forward. 

Side A focuses on some more floor-oriented grooves from artists who are known for both producing and DJing. Side B (kicked off by the ever-mysterious Clutchy Hopkins) is dedicated to the Hip Hop and Funk heads featuring artists who have all put their own unique spin on genres that have come before. Consider this a Future Classics affair! 

This project is a collaboration with 101 Apparel, who are providing the "Never Stop Digging" T-shirts which can be purchased from 101 Apparel directly. Both the T-shirt and cassette were designed by Montreal's Nik Brovkin. The official Music Is My Sanctuary 10th Anniversary celebration was held at Montreal’s Centre Phi, promoted and broadcasted live by Boiler Room. A big thank you goes out to the artists who provided tracks for this compilation, and to all artists who keep creating such fantastic music for us to share and enjoy. Without you there would be no us, and for this we can’t thank you enough!

Just as clubs and music venues worldwide have shuttered, victims of a pandemic and overall dystopian experience that most living human beings have never been through, XL Middleton unexpectedly brings us the soundtrack for the dance floor in our minds with ​Rose Bowl Motel​. It’s a four-track EP crafted with XL’s signature synth sound - modern funk music turned sideways, into something that house/electronic DJ’s can easily work into their sets as well. The songs on ​Rose Bowl Motel ​run long and expansively, evolving slowly and giving any turntablist plenty of time to weave in and out of a mix. Moods are set via dexterous analog bass lines and shimmering keys. In fact, the entirety of ​RBM is instrumental, save for the EP’s thunderous opener, “Shotgun Lover,” featuring a slinky vocal from Zackey Force Funk plus vocoder work from XL himself. “Crown Royal Bags” centers around airy keys and boogie bass syncopations, while “Swervin’ On The 210” alternates between jazzy rhodes chords and sharp synth leads reminiscent of D-Train classics. The album’s closer, “1990 Brougham d’Elegance,” was the first song Middleton cut for the project, several years back between sessions working on his T​ap Water a​lbum, and sounds like a sharp turn from anything he released in that period. Warm chords, housey organ stabs, and DX7 jazz guitar solos are the recipe here, proving XL is, and always has been, an artist/ producer capable of working effectively in many different modes. The club may have been shut down for now, but there’s always an after hours going down in a smoky room at ​Rose Bowl Motel​.
