For two decades we have been trying to bring a fresh wind to the otherwise musically forgotten border gate of the three countries of the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany. And so, for this occasion of our 20th anniversary, we decided to create the music compilation that will at least partially map the atmosphere of the last 20 years. We have always focused on non-mainstream music and diversity in the genres of Autonomic Drum and Bass & Techno, so even though it is a genre-different and varied compilation, all artists have one thing in common, and that is the SHOTGUN FESTIVAL. The result is a compilation of 2x LP 12" vinyl with 12 songs by 12 artists.

PREMIERE: Vision of 1994 - Code Isolation [Shotgun Festival]

As each machine began to power up he could feel the surge of electricity in the room within which he stood. It were as if the building itself was being powered by some sort of strange external force from beyond. 

The lights flashed and flickered, illuminating shadowy corners of the old abandoned warehouse. This was like sneaking a peek into the darkness and the unknown, like something not supposed to be seen. 

As the cables sparked, it became clear that this was to be no ordinary night. The power was on. 

Canapé Records are set to release a new EP from Daddy Hyphen. This is a record label that we've been keeping a close eye on as of late following a series of leftfield club records which sit between genres drawing influence from UK bass, techno and electro. This is a heads down affair, we reckon it will sound great on a big rig.

After the collaboration with DJ Durbin on 'Can't You Tell' Manu is back as MNL to release his first solo EP. He mangles the sounds and rhythms of his surroundings without limits and builds his own bittersweet world from them. Hodge's remix turns the track 'I Don't Know What I Want' into a ukg-esque dancefloor killer.

OS Premiere: No Remorse - Shadows [Miracle Drug]

This moment had been a long time coming, years worth of training and practise came down to a short frame of around ten seconds in which all else hung in the balance. This was not a game, oh no quite the opposite.

As the floodlights dimmed he tried to drown out the noise from the rowdy and excitable crowd of onlookers who knew not who he was or what he was about. For them this was quite simply entertainment, a night on the town and chance to gloat the next day stood by water coolers and over paperwork.

For him this was much more, this was science in sport. He got ready to throw the first punch...

Mantissa release a new EP from Bristol based producer Bex. This is her second release and comes hot off the heels of a late 2021 release which made quite the statement.

This time her energy has been channeled into the return of nightlife and experiences on the dancefloor. Purpose built for the clubs, this one goes deep and "Sport In Science" was our pick of the bunch..

PREMIERE: Bex - Science In Sport [Mantissa]

Like meeting an old friend again, Dalmata Daniel welcomes DJ Overdose back to their catalog. Six years ago the infamous Dutchman’s ’05 Poly 800 Loop’ EP was released, which served as a powerful launch to Dalmata Daniel, opening the first chapter in their story. Later in 2019, a split release with Sematic4 was also a highlight in the life of the label; and now, 3 years later, DJ Overdose checks in with the ‘Powers of Ten EP’ with a J. Mono remix, available both in digital and vinyl format, the latter having 2 bonus tracks.

The distinct, crunchy sound of DJ Overdose, bearing aspects of old school hip-hop-infused sampling and contemporary analog vibes creates the perfect blend of both worlds. ‘Garden of Lust’ opens up the adventure with a combo of warm basslines and solid drum-programming. This initial track feeds us these cardinal elements as the bread and butter they are: subtle variations and fine spices do appear here and there as the track goes along, but the key, beating pulse in ‘Garden of Lust’ brings massive hits stable as a sledgehammer in the hands of a blacksmith.

‘Feed The Beats’ elevates the game to cinematic territories: its majestic string-like central melody makes me alert and ablaze, making me feel like I’m in a late 80s L.A. setting facing malevolent zombie-aliens in my Wayfarer shades. Blasting beats and Carpenterian coolness all over the place, while the spooky bassline just keeps sneaking up on me endlessly.

If you are wondering when’s the best time of the year to bring out your boombox at last, then this is your lucky day: with ’BOB’, the first bonus track on the vinyl, we can experience some roarin’ bassdrums, snappy snares, MCs with the speed of light and all that jazz. The low-bit sampling and vinyl scratching come and kick you right in the face so hard that it becomes pretty obvious you’ll can’t help but start some serious beatbox battles in your bathtub with your rubber duck.

A feverish groove in the prime time of a funky bash, in the haze of a sensual rave-up: that’s all one really wants when going for a Saturday night out. We definitely get this and much more from ‘Room 714’, another vinyl-only bonus track. A berserk voice and ethereal chords guide us through this mysterious track, but while we are busy trying to impress our crushes on the dance floor, things around us are slowly getting very, very freaky, maybe a bit way too freaky.

As wobbly and jolly as it gets, our Dutch friend ends his session with ‘Ðr ¡v€ M€ ¢r@z¥’, a vocoder-heavy disco banger, full of merry vocal FX and smart rhythmic glitches as he completes his flight. To close the EP, our local hero, J. Mono delivers an insane remix of ‘Ðr ¡v€ M€ ¢r@z¥’: one can clearly imagine how he grabs and turns the BPM knob all the way up, fires up some arpeggios on his mighty synths and casts a complete reimagination of the original track.

PREMIERE : DJ  Overdose - Ðr¡v€ M€ ¢r@z¥ (J. Mono Remix)

The sun shone bright over the town, leaving the green spaces scorched and dry. It was that balmy kind of heat that made your clothes cling to your body and forced you to constantly mop your brow; she didn’t mind much, she felt at her most content when she was in the sun - it was her happy place. As soon as autumn rolled around the thought of the impending winter forced her into hibernation mode, she didn’t care much for the biting cold and crisp mornings. When spring came she’d emerge once again, only the sun held that power…

Seoul-based imprint Reach out Records are on a mission to raise funds for local causes whilst shining a light on artists from the country’s underground music scene. So far the non-profit imprint has supported projects and initiatives like Angel House, a residence for disabled people; their friend Tarek’s cancer treatment; and homeless support group PLUR. After a four year hiatus they return with their fourth VA release, ‘For The Youth’, which features music from Yetsuby, DJ Botermelk, Korea Town Acid and more, covering electro, acid, breaks, bass and more. This time they’re raising money for local charity, DDing Dong, who help support LGBTQIA+ teens in South Korea by providing them with counselling, shelter and support.

Lily Haz - Jealous Hours
BUY LINK: https://tofistock.bandcamp.com/album/jealous-hours
Label: Tofistock (https://soundcloud.com/tofistock)
https://soundcloud.com/lily-haz

Jealous Hours is the first full-length LP by the Tel-Aviv based DJ & producer Lily Haz. Featuring nine genre-bending tracks in her distinctive electro-dub style, the project playfully emphasizes & recontextualizes the role of sampling using cinematic references to nineties cult songs & movies.

“I’m a rapper!” says the kid to the cop. “Oh you’re a rapper? Oh, ok… Be cool, stay in school” the cop condescently replies.

Thanks to her unique approach to production, Lily takes us for a tour in her obscure, ethereal universe where hip hop’s supremacy is undisputed. Flirting with the club realm while fearlessly determined in her style, each of one of her core influences is essential to this parallel universe. Out there, pitched-down rap verses top obscure beats and rolling liquid jungle drums ; extended intros and outros riffle through the whole spectrum of human emotion. From anger to the puzzling humoristic dialogues she creates by toying with her own layered vocals or memphis rap samples, one cannot help but let himself dive into this ethereal consciousness outburst.

@daddyhyphen’s new imprint @rezonantbody launches with four diverse cuts with a nod to rudimental strains of trip-hop, hardcore & jungle-techno, Hyphen’s ‘i am rezonant’ [RZB001] refracts a simultaneously haunting, bracing & solacing sound through a modernist lens.

The EP's B2, 'active luv (AM dub)', scuttles and throbs amidst a playfully dubbed-out landscape. Sitting at an ambitious 184bpm, Hyphen closes RZB001 with a true system-rattler.

PREMIERE: Daddy Hyphen - 16oz masculinity, 16oz sky [Rezonant Body]

Following 2023’s raw and provocative ‘i am rezonant’ [RZB001], two ambitious artists further tease the paradigm of Dance Music on Rezonant Body’s latest 12”, ‘Auto / It’s Raining (Sativa)’ [RZB002].

RZB founder, Daddy Hyphen, assumes a contrastingly coarse and turbid sound on the record’s B side. Like petrol shimmering in polluted waters, ephemeral glimpses of clarity are clouded in a swirling pool of broken, percussive Dub-Techno.

Auto / It's Raining (Sativa)

PREMIERE: Daddy Hyphen - Freeform Rezonance in Celadon [𝖗𝖊𝖟𝖔𝖓𝖆𝖓𝖙 𝖇𝖔𝖉𝖞]

It had seemed as if it might never come, the clouds had been absent from this part of town for ever so long and what had once been lush, dense and green had shrunk and dried beyond any sort of recognition. The summer had been brutal, long and brutal.

They had dreamed that one day the heavens might descend once again to save them all from the bitter heat which had become their tormentor.

Now, as darkness fell across the land, they watched and waited with eager anticipation for the sweet moment of release.

It was raining once again…

Rezonant Body showcase a new wave of Bass and Techno on a split EP from Vilhelm and Daddy Hyphen. Think deep, ominous basslines and abstract sound design, with one foot in the club and another in a distant galaxy.
