You can now listen to « Deep Breath », the second single from Batu’s forthcoming EP. 

As the EP’s closing track, ‘Deep Breath’ sees Batu take a more reflective route while experimenting with dubbed-out ambience in high tempo territories.

Batu - Deep Breath

This was not one thing or another. The machine was baffled and confused by its perfect array of imperfections which meant it could not be neatly packaged or placed within the categories by which it knew.

See, here was the thing, humans were always wonky. They could not be paired to the constraints of societal brackets, for then there would be little left in the realm of imagination or creative freedom. I was not we - it never had been.

Sparks began to fly as the construct of reality was shattered beneath the weight of its own clumsy foolishness. How had they ever imagined they might get away with it? For they themselves, were wonky after all.

E-Talking is a producer we've followed for years, both independently and as one half of Nummer - the hardware duo who have released music on the likes of Going Good.

E-Talking has appeared independently on the likes of Going Good and AD93 fka Whities. This next EP enters new territories, targeting the club directly with foreboding cuts of electronic music built for the dancefloor.

PREMIERE: E-Talking - Wonky I

For the second release of the year, we’re delighted to welcome Paris-based Jumboclat, member of SeekSickSound and Exploration Music (RIP).

Author of a first solo release on Flore’s POLAAR imprint and producing the acclaimed ‘Tell Me’ released on Vernacular Records, he is also well versed in footwork, as demonstrated by his tunes on Le French Work.

His ‘Cloverleaf EP’ is a concentrate of everything he does best : from the emotional an deep 2-step ‘B With U’ to the razor sharp breakbeats of ‘Timeslip’, the prouction is meticulous, deep and melancholic, an ode to the carribean sounds and cultures blended with futuristic sound design. To round off the EP, Stacktrace delivers a psychedelic and oppressive dub remix of the title track.

Tracklist: 

01 - B With U
02 - Timeslip
03 - Cloverleaf Dub
04 - Cloverleaf Dub (Stacktrace Remix)

PREMIERE: Jumboclat - Timeslip [Egregore Collective]

Releasing together for the first time, Ommaya's first release of 2025 features label heads noRecall and Sawyer James teaming up for a split project 'Backbone' that serves as a mile marker for where both artists are at stylistically with their sounds and where they're headed, with the four tracks conjoined by their shared doses of heavy sub and rapid, rattling percussion. Ommaya's shifting form is on the move once again with a huge year ahead.

GUATAUBA (remix)

Within, percussive elements playfully come and go, and hide and reappear around the main kick, before racing towards a towering crescendo. Strap in and take a listen to the EB exclusive from third and last instalment by the Somatic Rituals crew.
