some of the hardest shit I've ever heard 

this is one of the sickest jams in a while- good job-

New music from Chicago's legendary Traxman to be released on UK label WORKS Records this week!  A pioneer of the Chicago sound from his early days on Dance Mania records, Traxman is responsible for some of the scene's most iconic tracks, such as Footworkin On Air, Lifeeeee Is For Ever, Pacman Juke, and Blow Your Whistle. "Fuk Um Up Bad featuring Will Engine" is a raw battletrack, while Da Look EP is an ode to the many influences that composite the musical landscape of Chicago.

This is the  Bristol label's second release. Established in 2020 by Half-time // Slow/fast co-founders DJ Jonco, Goldman and DJ Lazergun, WORKS is dedicated to pushing 160bpm dance music across the UK. The label's goal is to "exhibit the varying global sounds of these styles of music whilst retaining the futurist vision set out by the originators of these genres", Traxman's Da Look EP is a fitting second installment for the Bristol Label and event series. Follow the BUY link to purchase the release from Bandcamp, out Wednesday July 21!

[PREMIERE] Traxman Ft. Will Engine - Fuk Um Up Bad (WORKS records)

DJ JALEN - Rhythm And Bass @djjalentog TEKLIFE FLX003
For the third Teklife flexi disc, Jalen brings us Rhythm and Bass, an intergalactic slice of off-kilter footwork. Comprised of a minimal drum kit, menacing bass and several abstract sounds, each element ricochets off each other like feet do the floor. Through calculated use of flangers and reverse reverb, grainy synths are stretched and swirl around your head like a transmission caught from the far depths of space. While rather isolated and eerie, its intense dynamics make it an extremely functional battle track, perfectly crafted for the fury within the circle. This cosmic single-sided disc gives us a fascinating glimpse at the under-documented Chicagoan, and showcases Jalen’s unique ability to tailor rhythms on the micro level, perfectly fit for the detailed patterns of the dancers his music is made for.

Completely refreshing from start to finish, this EP is full of club-ready, fun-loving trax made to make you move. Each of the six songs (including one remix by Chicago's DJ Hank) offers a different style of DJ Orange Julius's constantly changing approach to uptempo bass and footwork music, all while remaining cohesive, exciting, and unpredictable. His muzak-adjacent melodies and deep hip hop cuts provide the perfect escape from your monotonous musical rut.
