We are happy to present our 8th release, The Orange One, which is due to hit the shelves somewhere around the beginning of this summer! This  EP is signed by a young and really talented producer Clafrica. Originally from Catania, this cool dude is now residing in Edinburgh UK. 
In addition to the three fresh cuts from Clafrica, we invited our very own Disrupted Project to round the release with a remix and as you can hear, he delivers.

More info about the release will follow. Until then, check out the snippets!

GAMMA INTEL b2b RIGSON [OPERATOR RADIO NOV '19]

In the outer reaches of space the station floated effortlessly through the night sky, navigating its way across a dark canvas painted with bright stars. A lost generation of humans had come to inhabit this territory in search of something greater than planet earth had to offer. Here they existed harmoniously alongside different worlds and species, they barely remembered the lives they'd previously led down below on solid ground...

Basic Moves continue their mission to showcase the forgotten corners of electronic music from their home country of Belgium. Making his return to the label for the third time, and the twelfth label release, is Sebastian S. under his Caustic 14 moniker, this time with a batch of exclusive tracks produced between 1993 and 1996. His textural sound shines brightly over the six tracks; a healthy mix of crisp breaks, jungle drum workouts and bleepy electro. To quote the label "these compositions emerged during many sleepless nights spent watching videos of science fiction series such as Babylon 5 or Star Trek, scrutinising each episode while composing. Behind these six pieces are six keywords that have a story: BWP, PK, Network, D-jacking Zone Elypsia, Planet-E and Brussels! Another fantastic release from Basic Moves showcasing the rich history of Belgium.

New imprint Ernest’s Way delivers its first offering with a debut release from Australian based artist Featherstone.

The A-side of this four-track EP offers two highly effective dancefloor cuts that ride the line between many diverse influences of electronic music ranging from acidic electro to the early roots of techno. The B-side follows up with two deeper, heavily emotive tracks that drift into an uplifting, euphoric and dreamy atmosphere whilst remaining complimentary to the driving rhythms that open the EP.

Another mini mega pack loaded with two quality tunes by friends of the project is on its way. Reptant and Sansibar, two young producers on the top of their game provide state of the art electro with a laid back attitude.

Our next mix comes from our good friend Julia, aka Frou Frou. You may have caught her playing the closing set at the melt livestream back in March. Part of the Crate Mates Collective, Julia's done some excellent work in the local scene as DJ and a promotor, helping to put on great events like Tesselate and Envelope. We hope you enjoy this fun, clubby and energetic mix she's put together for us.
