Beside the railway depot, beyond the equinox, the atmosphere felt tense. Movement defined the top of the arches, but in the darkness beneath, there was little much kinetic or soulful with which to connect. Bird song crept into the nocturne, it's inky black sky beginning to bleed blue.

A whole year on from his debut on Hot Concept, Bleaching Agent continues his journey "from gabber to Goldfrapp" with another exemplary EP on Hot Concept, the Berlin-based label run by John Loveless. Premiering on R$N is 'Faster Silence', which distills BA's lifelong love of DIY culture into a slowly rising outsider-anthem in waiting, replete with post-punk licks, crashing drums and rich synths; big room house for basement punks.

PREMIERE: Bleaching Agent - Faster Silence [Hot Concept]

The second digital release of LUNETTA11 sees the debut of a brand new project called Antenna! . "Algoritmo" consists of 3 nu-disco gems that go straight to the point: here rolling basslines and cosmic atmospheres reign. The homonym track "Algoritmo" opens the EP with a punchy bass and a bunch of jaunty synths; the ride continues with "Chroma", a fast-paced rhythm track that doesn't leave you any chance to get out of the dance floor; "Rhombus" closes the EP with delayed percussions and a sexy bassline that will keep you company for a brief but intense journey. 3 mixes digital record out March 9th: https://lunetta11.com/

Travelling through this underwater world he wondered whether he might ever reach the surface and see the daylight again. There was nothing but a deep radiant ocean of blue all around him and as he looked onwards as to where he would swim there was little sign that he might ever reach the shore. Bubbles and ripples moved all around him and as he swam across the ocean floor he stroked his fingers through the grains of sand which solidified the bottom of the sea. It was vast and ever present, the deep blue. 

MSRG features on a new split EP alongside Aquatronics for Analog Concept. The record features a stunning assortment of abstract electro and fast paced beats for pondering thought. It also comes with artwork designed by Detroit artist and UR affiliate Abdul Qadim Haqq.

PREMIERE: MSRG - Excursions [Analog Concept]

@adampits is as quintessential to the label as it gets. His first two Eps were full on baskets of dynamite and number three is no different. He has three variations on a theme in A Minor, and the theme is...absolute slammeroos.

Remix duties come from great friends of the label and Slam Jams 1 gang, @Tape-Fear. They’ve come correct with an absolute hound dog of a 2-step take on Variation 1. Turn the subs up and dive on in...

Vinyl release is February 26th.
Digital release is March 26th.

On the B-side housier "Exaltic" and the electro/IDM hybrid of "Glycol" are fine examples of the young man's trademark genre hopping versatility. 

Musica Australis Icognita part III - the final EP in the series displaying the emerging sound of a new generation of Australian producers.
