CALLING ALL FRENETIC LOONS - cursed to strut on thy toes, or to point them to the sky. Has a lack of dance based activity made you weary? The deprivation of bass inflected oxygen surging thru your body resulted in a euphoric fatigue? Well rise and shine all you Spiritually Deluded kinder, the hit parade is back, with Roza T & D. Tiff tip-toeing in with 8 tracks high in kinetic synergy and low in “bOriNGG!!”. The sound of 2 artists; serious in their intent yet blowing raspberries at the cork sniffers/snobs, obstinate to the world of industrial decay press shots + plastic ravers.


Instead they straddle the Edge of Innocence. Residue of lines once written, now your own personal tightrope. You wobble to and fro as part of a troupe of ethereal jesters, composed of Lil’ Drummer Boi’s pitter pattering on Gravity Bongo’s. Both tracks repping and following the rhythm of the ozone bounce house. With enough elasticity you’ll ^^break thru^^, experiencing Possession by momentary ascension. The weightless sensation of falling in a circle; catch yourself if you please. Such transcendence is lucrative, the Paparazzi on hand to flash and burn the retina, providing instant short-circuit delusions of grandeur. Sonically every hard knock is met with a “bOinKK!!”, illuminating the dark yet cartoonish nature of the practice - guaranteed to make u skip, achieve the perfect sly pout. You and your gang can terraform into bodacious bass-bins, and cast your personal Redemption Arc onto the ether.


Inhibitions are to be absolved, and fat kickdrums to be followed. In this hyper-informed yet unknowing present tense, who can ignore the beat based intrinsic incentive to fuck up the circadian rhythm - the music becoming a byte-based silkworm, spinning its digital silk from synapse to synapse, until your brain is a translucent cocoon playfully ricocheting, the cranium its pleasure dome. Call the drum dealer.

Edge Of Innocence

PREMIERE: D.Tiffany & Roza Terenzi - Gravity Bongo

For the debut vinyl EP on Viscera Transmissions, Manami embarks on an interplanetary voyage to distant moons. Let her distinct, melodic style bathe you in a dreamy celestial glow.

Eventide In Orbit cruises across the star-shot horizon. An era spanning blend of ambient techno and melodic trance trailing lofty astral tones, before warping into 303 hyperspace.

Afterburners roaring, our voyage brings us to Interaxial, exploring the weightier side of Manami’s sound. Evoking images of an interplanetary battle, laser synth barrages flash across the skies of this heads down techno thumper.

On the flip side, Overture One prepares for docking protocols, slowly drifting on cosmic winds back towards the ambient mothership. Pulsating synth wobbles take the helm and ride the driving baseline into the sunset.

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the known cosmos, Adam Pits ignites an extra-terrestrial dancefloor with his aptly titled ‘Stomp’ remix of Overture One. Alien booties shake to a breakbeat tip before morphing into a squelchy cosmic slugger. Tentacles head skyward for Adam’s mind altering sound. Heavy as!

PREMIERE : Manami - Overture One (Adam Pits' Stomp Mix)

Esteemed proponent of outré dancefloor manoeuvres, Superconscious Records co-founder Fantastic Man makes his Kalahari debut proper.

Having shown up for rework duties on a couple of occasions, we find the mutable oddball at his most trippy and esoteric. In fact, OYSTER42 is the handiwork of a producer who has his formula of balmy, lysergic dance music down to an exact science.

‘Alltogethernow’ gets on a swaggering cosmic tip, all sub-loaded and celestial as levitational arpeggios and funked-up groove dovetail to mesmeric effect. ‘Alpha’, on the other hand, takes a vision quest through enchanted jungle terrain. Initiating with a hypnotic ritual chant, it’s tunnelling and murkily psychedelic; occulted dancefloor rapture tailor-made for the wormhole interior.

As if it were some artefact from a distant ‘90s utopia, Bioxy’ evokes a time when warehouse parties littered the Melbourne landscape. Where its predecessor evokes ceremony and ritual, this is an anachronistic, dilated flashback to simpler times. FM kicks it languid and life-affirming on the closing number. Radiant synth lines flutter with a gentle headiness as ‘Trojan Force’ takes us full circle with a reprise of the rainforest FX.

Lift Me Higher (Remotif Remix)

Today felt like the first time he could see clearly; as if every day that had come before it he'd been living with his eyes shut. There was no telling what had been the catalyst, it seemed to happen almost instantly. Before, the most joyous and exhilarating experiences never moved him, he's always found ways to pick holes in everything. But now he found beauty in the most mundane things, in seemingly boring situations and dull encounters - after all this time his life could start, the idea that it was all a mirage was finally over. 

Semi Delicious boss Demi Riquísimo shared the first volume in his Reconfigured series two years ago - a remix project that invites friends of the label to put their own stamp on tracks from the back catalogue. This time round a fresh batch of artists breathe life into their label favourites, namely Viscera alumni Manami, Holding Hands producer Gallegos, WHP resident Gina Breeze and Tech Support under his Asa Tate alias. There's something for all dance music lovers, from hypnotic techno and vintage percussive house to tropical-tinged chug and pacy Balearic prog.

PREMIERE: Demi Riquisimo - Mirage Over (Manami Remix) [Semi Delicious]
