bORDEL (@user-628750708)  continues to establish itself as an essential label with a fantastic new EP from @Turbotito featuring remixes from Mondowski and Max Pask.

As well as being one half of Daytime Disco duo Poolside and a member of Ima Robot and Djosos Krost, Filip is also a producer and has produced music for Bonde Do Role, Azealia Banks, Baby Alpaca and many more. He also runs an imprint for his own material but now steps out on bORDEL to showcase his silky skills.

We found it hard to pick a favourite but UK artist and long time dark electronic explorer @Mondowski skilful remix of ‘It’s Always The Same’ blew our mind...a tripped out and languid deep house cut with searching synths and daubs of melodic colour. 

Release: May 21st 2017

It's Always The Same

PREMIERE -  Turbotito - It's Alway The Same (Mondowski Remix) (Bordel)

We're willing to put good money on Dixon's remix of 'The Dawn' being a staple of his summer sets this year and it's a pretty good bet. 

His remix puts a growling, fierce new take on the original and he swaps delicate tones for rumbling bass hits and synths that propel and drive the track forward with an intensity only he can conjure up.

An outstanding EP all round and a remix from Dixon that ranks as one of his best to date.

The elegance with which the sun rose was breathtaking. Some velvet morning it would turn out to be but little did they know of that as they watched the sky. Soon it would be time to leave the city and travel outwards into the great beyond, to a place in which the long grasses and the wild rivers ran between the country hills. The train would take several hours, huffing and puffing it would pass between the city walls leaving a trail of fog and dust in its midst...

PREMIERE: Sonny - Some Velvet Morning [Koldt Bord]

For a long time he had battled against his inner demons, debating with himself as to the validity of his work and the potential of perfection. Now, in his older years he had decided to let things go a little, keep things simple if you will. It was only by such behaviour that one might be able to attain a sense of peace within what they do, he had learnt this the hard way. Many years had been spent under toil and strain, his rallying thoughts repeating their disloyal noise amidst his ears. 

Dj Psychiatre is the next in a line of musicians to release on GASP Records, an imprint based out of Poland. The label has become to one to watch, bringing life to the local scene and allowing new artists a platform to express themselves.

PREMIERE: Dj Psychiatre - Keep Things Simple [GASP Records]

The room buzzed with activity and life, the roar of machines and the shouting of voices back and forth was enough to give anyone a headache. Each phone seemed to ring louder than the last as the calls came pouring in to the station one by one. Each operator was put in a perilous position, it was only the sound of their voice which might lead to a resolution to whatever tragedy had struck on the other end of the line. She observed the scene from the corner of the room with a nervous smile. 

Afriqua is set to release an EP on the much loved R&S Records this month. "Aleph" will be available from the 8th of December and features an enchanting assortment of percussion, melodic soundscapes and dreamy haze.

PREMIERE: Afriqua - Opferator [R&S Records]

The boat cruised elegantly above the rolling waves as those on board laughed and danced beneath the summer sun. This was a glorious occasion, an aquatic voyage into the unknown which would take their breath away. Deep down in the murky depths beneath the pearly white base of the ship was a great expanse, unchartered territory which man had not yet conquered. Some even said that we knew less about the depths of the ocean than we did of the planets millions of miles away. Some said...

The house in the woods had always been surrounded by mysterious tales of wizardry and magic, the locals didn't dare venture into the trees. Billie was the only one to have ever seen the old man who lived inside the cabin, a dark and misty figure which some claimed was up to no good. He was the only one who knew the truth about his somewhat strange behaviour, for he was special. As night fell he would wander onced again into the forest to meet his friend, together they would sit aside the fire and dream of the great beyond.

We're premiering @mr_tc_glasgow's remix of 'Echo Silent' which sounds like the sort of music I'd like to hear on approaching a haunted house deep in the middle of a Scandinavian forest.
