Hypnotized (Dim Sum Remix)

'Awaken' feels like greeting an old friend, swinging in on a dusty hi-hat and an inviting piano progression with bright synth riffs glimmering in the distance. Reminiscent of Leon Vynehall's approach to laid back house, this one is made for the dancefloor or duvet.

Kemback - Awaken (STW Premiere)

The sandy dunes lined the sides of the great river. Green reeds could be seen blowing in the breeze above the swirling mists of the water below. Fighting the current they clung to the bed of the Nile, gripping for life so that they might not be swept away by the raging waves. The great heights of the pyramids looked down on the scene below as a voice cried out loudly in the blackened air. The Egyptian night grew still, a voice across the nile was all to be heard.

Disco Halal continue their profound run of form and ever growing release schedule as they offer up three reworks of TCP. Moscoman steps up to take on an exciting approach in 'A Voice Across The Nile'.

PREMIERE: TCP - A Voice Across The Nile (Moscoman Rework)[Disco Halal]

Dublin duo @longislandsoundeire hit the sweet spot between the rough and the smooth perfectly on this deep but chunky cut on fledgling Australian imprint @kyokurecords. Classy, assured, atmospheric, it's another sign that these two are headed for big things.

PREMIERE: Long Island Sound - Field Echoes [Kyoku Records]

hi boys and girlx.
the year is done, and here's a special goodie for being there with us.

Rolling Stones - She's a Rainbow (Red Axes Edit)

The multi faceted functionality of the human spirit was a remarkable feat. The machines watched with fascination as they looked out upon the condition of those living amongst the sand. In the midst of the desert lay their spectacularly mirrored space ship, an entity in its own right and a strange spectacle to behold amidst the Middle Eastern backdrop. They pondered relentlessly the nature of such interaction between body and mind, yet they could not comprehend or decipher the orchestration of actions and which was a result of the other. 

Lockyear has received far reaching support around this release. The latest edition to the OTB catalogue sees him deliver three inspired cuts which sit somewhere between techno and progressive house. This one is good.

Wave Knowledge

PREMIERE: Lockyear - Bodymind [OTB]

The green grass blew softly in the wind and the woods loomed eerily in the distance. The sun set down by the wall as the last of the summer daylight crashed ominously from above. In the depth of the night this place would become a temple, a prism of chaos and the beginning of the end. A warehouse could be heard closing up for the night in the distance. The clatter of shutters rattled in the air as the lights flickered in the street outside. This was to be the location they had dreamt of. Here in the garden they were safe. 

roadman kicks off the new year with a release on Tact Recordings. He delivers two moody house cuts with rough edged groove and allure.

The Wall EP

PREMIERE: roadman - The Wall [Tact]

Sleep was but a dream for now. She lay upon the sheets wondering when her eyelids might fall hazily shut. It had been weeks since she had last been able to drift off in peace, her mind continued to race and play melodic tricks upon her every blink. The scenario had become repetitive and boring yet still it continued to plague her ever evening. She had always pondered the nature of life as an insomniac but had never imagined she might find herself in such a position. Whilst the world lay still, she was wide awake .

PREMIERE: Felix Leifur - Eyelids [Dirt Crew]

The stakes had been raised so damn high that his legs had begun to shake. As he watched the wheel spin he continued to count the rotations of the spin, praying and wishing that the star might land where his marker was at. The room had gone eerily quiet, or at least it seemed that way to him. He held tightly onto the green felt of the table beneath his fingertips trying not to blink. Soon the marker would drop and his night would end in one of two ways. 

Gary Gritness returns with a second edition of "The Sugar Cane Chronicles" for Hyperdub. He brings with him four heavy hitting funk cuts in his own peculiar fashion.

The Sugar Cane Chronicles Vol 2

PREMIERE: Gary Gritness - Countin' Up With Starr [Hypercolour]

The temperature was ferociously hot in the dark basement. Outside the sun was at its highest peak and the concrete was smouldering under the blistering rays. Underground, it was much the same bar the lack of light. This was by choice and not an accident. Nobody liked to dance in the eye of others judgement, hence the shadows were best for such fun. As the room begin to fill it was remarkable to watch the people shed their clothes, layer by layer they became more free. The sweat dripped from above. 

Daniel T steps up with two tracks for the fun loving Cosmic Pint Glass label. He is accompanied by Lauer and Jack Pattern who offer a set of spectacular alternatives to his own arrangements

CPG007

PREMIERE: Daniel T - Celsius (Lauer Remix) [Cosmic Pint Glass]
