WPP stands for Witness Protection Program — a labour of love and a lab for incubating lovely music. Since 2021, it has operated as a space for artists who wish to remain anonymous and release music they might not be able to share otherwise. A Workshop for Phantom Producers, where the focus stays on sound, not identity.

Alien Bells revolves around a synthesized metallic motif that climbs and dips in pitch, generating a steady sense of motion through unfamiliar terrain. The track feels suspended in low gravity, with each percussive chime echoing like a coded transmission from elsewhere. Drawing from dub, krautrock, new disco, and acid, without sounding quite like any of these, it’s a mind-altering belter built for adventurous dancefloors.

Humble B Flats - Blessings of Sun double disk, coming out on Pond Life Records is a sonic spiritual voyage and document of the artist's last three years, overcoming grief and challenges - while deepening a sense of gratitude for the teachings and learnings along the way.

Musically this has translated, to a beautiful series of works, inspired by musical cultures around the world, this Deep House album is infused with jazz, psychedelia , tribal and heartwarming sounds and grooves.

With exception to collaboration with Kudo Sol and Ilja Gussarov (on tracks B1 & C1 respectively) all instruments, as ever, are played, recorded, rearranged and mixed by Humble B Flat, with a more sample based approach to the rhythmic grooves.

PREMIERE - Zobol - Uprising (Melodize)

West London’s Tutu Ta returns with their most haunting work yet on “Violence Or Violets” via the ever excellent Long Gone Are The Old Traditions

There once was a Samurai keen, Who lived in an Igloo pristine, With his Tutu Ta sound, Where the dub beats abound,

And violets grew violet-green!

He mixed up his beats in the snow, With post-punk and spoken word flow,  “Long Gone Are The Old Traditions!” he’d cry,


 
As ethereal vocals flew by, From West-London’s factory echo! His Violence Or Violets EP, Made the arctic winds sing with glee,

For LONGGONEIII, Was the label so free, Where heart-aching sonics run free!

Producer-singer-songwriter Tutu Ta dives deeper into their fusion of dub, spoken word, and post-punk atmospherics. Following acclaimed releases “The Shrine” and “Clay Birds Are Grey,” this latest offering from Long Gone Are The Old Traditions stable showcases an artist unafraid to explore more intimate, spectral territories while keeping one foot firmly planted in the UK’s rich sound-system heritage.

Ethereal vocals float above punchy rhythms that nod to their hometown’s legendary dub legacy, creating “a driven heart provoking siren.”

The villa was packed with luxury items and elegant attire. Fancy aristocrats and glamorous divas walked proudly between rooms in a celebration of "decadance" and profitability. The view from the sprawling estate was spectacular, it looked down upon the bay below as the waves roared against the cliff face. Up on the hillside a party was underway, dancing was encouraged but not compulsory. The music echoed through the glow of the evening air. 

NEP's "Decadence" is being reissued by Fox and His Friends. Originally recorded in 1989 the track is a sought after slow moving cut which works bizarrely well on the dancefloor.

BLTRS06: Smagghe & Cross - MMMMMMM EP 
feat. Matthew Herbert + remixes by Samo DJ & Pedrodollar, Jackie House's Generator w/ Kevin Clarke & Marke B and Pilooski

Much like James Holden and Optimo, Ivan Smagghe is one of the most influential figures behind the founding and continuation of H+P over the past decade.

As such, it is tremendously exciting to release something by his new Smagghe & Cross project. In collaboration with the film composer and programmer, Rupert Cross - who counts big Hollywood blockbusters and Kanye West on his impressive resume - Smagghe & Cross has recently been picking up acclaim through superb releases on Vladimir's Offen Music, Ransom Note and their remix of The Junto Club has been a staple round these parts. Not only that, but the record also features none other than the bold Matthew Herbert (!!!) doing his best Robert Wyatt impression.
Additionally, as a very big fan of the compelling Honey Soundsystem 'Generator' series, I'm really chuffed to have commissioned a special remix featuring Jackie House with Kevin Clarke performing words by DJ Marke B. Swedish Superstars, Samo DJ & Pedrodollar also turn in a trippy groover AND as the icing on the cake; have enlisted the services of the DJ who played the first ever H+P party back in 2007, Pilooski- completing another circle during the 10th anniversary year..

Released 25/8/17

Gever Amiti Ft Gabriel Broid (MR TC Remix)

Label Missing Letters is proudly releasing a remix EP with FRANGIE following up their  debut, which was released earlier this year. Now they’ve invited a variation of befriended DJ’s and producers to repaint the tracks with their special love for the dance floor.   FRANGIE initiates the remix EP with their own introspective lo-fi deconstruction of Love, Your Friend. In Samo DJ and J. Skugge’s version of the same track, an infectious bassline meets ambient pads to create a spaced out dub experience. An experience that resonates with Bella Boo’s mystical rework of jazzy DDML, where trippy chords and melodies transcends into a different dimension. Bella most recently contributed with the track boyboy to compilation album Studio Barnhus Volym 1. Underground DJ-duo HK have gradually been building a reputation for their live hardware jams at clubs and raves around Stockholm. Discover their dusty, groovy sounds in their remix of Don’t text me. DJ and producer Kimchii brings you to an afternoon backyard party with his funky guitar licks and groovy bassline. It’s the perfect remix for summer reminiscing, just in time for the first leaves to fall...
