Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS175

Following standout appearances on Feel My Bicep, Unknown To The Unknown, and E-MISSIONS, Irish-born DJ/producer Cromby hits Rekids with a four-track EP of crisp techno cuts. Heavily utilising the sound of hardware across the release, ‘Twisted Future EP’ sees Cromby explore the depths of these classic sound palettes over robust techno frameworks. 

‘IXP-42’ brings crunching drums and wiggling synths together for over two minutes, building tension before eventually, the much-awaited bassline comes in thick and fast. ‘Follow The Bass’ brings a dose of the unusual to proceedings, with snaking FM leads modulating throughout a maze of sizzling percussion.

On the flip, Bleep meets Baltimore on ‘Relief’, with meaty acid lines, vocals and clattering drums sparring with each other across the track, while ‘Vortex’ rounds off the release, with bright shimmering stabs peppering the stomping drums and distinct squelch of the 303.

Cromby - Relief

She'd noticed a change in his temperament, it wasn't just the puffed up eyes and wet cheeks that were a giveaway. His door remained closed and his conversations had been reduced to one or two word sentences. She knew she didn't have to say much, she just wanted to let him know she was there; an ear for anything he wanted to divulge, whenever that may be. She didn't have all the answers but she had all the time in the world to listen to him.

To mark mental health awareness month, South London-based cassette label Sticky Tapes have rounded up several producers for a six-track mini-comp titled ‘hey, do you need someone to talk to?’. Known for their charity-indebted tape mixes, which have featured contributions from Violet and ELLES, CC:DISCO! and Barbara Boeing and many others, this new comp comes as a digital only release this time round and brings together the likes of Tim Reaper, Ell Murphy & Picasso, PRAYER, IN2STELLAR, Theo Everyday and Kitsta.

As always all proceeds from the release will be donated to charity, and this time round they're focusing on three mental health helplines, The Samaritans, SANEline and Switchboard, who are all doing incredible work for those who need someone to talk to when they need it most.

To raise further awareness of the helplines, Sticky Tapes will be posting 500 posters all over London that feature rip tickets with the helpline numbers.

"Epicure Records is delighted to announce the second EP from Dj Paradiso on the label. If you hadn't already figured it out, this guy is oozing with talent. For fans of Acid house vibes, this EP is tailor-made for you!
The first track, "Feel so Good," will instantly put a smile on your face, just as the name suggests, and make you want to dance.

The second track, "Pino Bianco," is also the name of his dog. One can imagine him munching on his acid-filled kibbles and dancing as if he's in a 90s rave.

To top it all off, we've got two remixers straight from Tel Aviv here to turn up the heat even more.

Our guy Dj Split, who released a monstrous EP a few months back on the label, has taken on remixing the title track with a very smooth and sunny house version.

Roy Heyman is handling the second remix, adding even more acid vibes with his personal touch that we are totally fans of.

Epicureans from everywhere, let's take a ride together !"

Understated drama

Australian phenom Roza Terenzi has rapidly ascended the electronic music ranks over the past year or so, and the breakbeat-loving, Melbourne-based producer is set to potentially take another leap when her 'Let's Ride' EP arrives via Dekmantel on April 8. Ahead of that, we debuted the melody-rich sounds of EP cut "Open Me" on Red Bull Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.
