Back right in time for open-air action with a choice four-tracker on the quality-driven @kitjen, @beesmunt-soundsystem deliver a dazzling symphony of lushly-textured soundscapes, balearic grooves and organic house beats. We caught up with David and Luigi to find out what makes them tick in and out of the studio.

Invisible City returns with the hotly anticipated reissue of Amajovi Jovi by Durban’s O.G. kwaito giant, Sandy B.  Originally self-released on cassette and a white label 12”, rumour has it Sandy had to remake the tracks from memory because even he couldn’t find a copy. 
 
In its original post-apartheid context, Amajovi Jovi was a sign of youthful subversiveness, rebellious creativity and a neck snapping rejection to the fascist groove of a silenced nation.  While the Pantsulla hustler nods to house legends like Jamie Principle and Pal Joey, its hip hop breaks and interludes show a clear affection for Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle.  At its slowed down tempo however, this low-fi kwaito masterpiece turns away from its American influence and looks towards Baldelli and his cosmos.  Best of all are Sandy’s vocals— deep, melodic Zulu rap, sung flippantly—the way that only a true gangster could.  It now stands as one of the finest glimpses of 90s party music to ever be blasted at the underground parties of the South African townships. 
 
A huge fave of Jamie Tiller, Tako, Young Marco, Optimo, Trevor Jackson and ICE, we are proud to present a limited vinyl and cassette reissue from one of the godfathers of kwaito. Remastered and restored from the original cassette tape.  Designed by Zeitype. Distributed by Rush Hour.

100% Silk are releasing Silk to Dry the Tears, a 31 track compilation commemorating those lost in the tragic Ghost Ship fire in Oakland just over a year ago. Half of the profits are being donated to an organization called Safer DIY Spaces that emerged in the wake of the disaster. They “offer confidential guidance, financial assistance, and labor to the frequently vulnerable members of the Bay Area’s communities who live and/or work in non-traditional «DIY» spaces.”

Bolting Bits is more than happy to help support the cause by promoting the compilation and premiering the first track on it from Birmingham-based The Cyclist entitled The City Hangover. 

An emotional piece at its core, it starts off on a bittersweet note with warm yet brooding pads and a synth melody that opens up as it progresses until it climaxes and mutes to a lighthearted arpeggiated pattern. Meanwhile, atmospheric noise brings up the tension as the various percussion instruments build the rhythm to a second, more rhythmical apex. The song fits as an appropriate metaphor to the tragedy at hand, melancholic after the loss yet building positivity as time goes on through the community efforts made to help those affected and others who may find themselves in tough situations.

Space Dimension Controller - Slowtime in Reflection

The water was cold as he dived from the cliff into the sea below. It shocked his body as he swam flustered and panicked towards the shore in the distance. The waves rolled in heavily but he was not afraid, for he was in love with the ocean and the murky depths. He could taste the saltwater in his mouth as the sun beamed down upon him from the heavens above. Soon he would be home... 

Joe Morris reminds us that it's summertime on a new EP for Shades of Sound. A sun kissed affair with balearic sensibilities bound to leave a smile on your face and a longing for warmer climates.
