Long running Manchester and Berlin based party 'Lost Control, ’' who hold a NTS residency under the same name run by Black Eyes, bring us the new label Lost Control 2097. 
 
Kicking things off with the ‘Come on Let’s Get It’ EP from Cygnus. Label Boss Matthew Jesus says - “The label itself is our new extension of the portal from the 7th dimension. Specialising in plasma house, sub-aquatic electro and cyber techno all brought back from the year 2097. The first EP is from Texan electro legend Cygnus. We don't need to explain how good he is. We just hope you enjoy the ride of cyber soul at its deadliest. There's even a tribute track to the city of Manchester where Lost Control was born. The vinyl colour is inspired by the acid blood of the xenomorphs from the Alien movies, meaning it's translucent fluorescent yellow.” 
 
 "They mostly come at night...mostly!" 
 
The record is mastered by Dutch synth genius Rude 66 and will be released on both Physical and Digital formats.

PREMIERE : Cygnus - Robotech

As its title suggests, El nino diablo’s second solo effort the ‘Dreamweaving’ EP is an invitation to weigh anchor and drift off to upper, lusher spheres of consciousness. Recorded in his home studio in Berlin during the first lockdown in April 2020, this EP is the yin to the yang of the darker hues of ShadowPlay that was released in January.

Warmed up via slo-moving tides of verbed-out textures and sun-bleached envelopes hinting at classic BoC'ian electronica, ‘Dorothea’s Rainbow’ eases us in a brightly hued daze of sorts right away. Through an ethereally evocative knit of languid, brass and piano-strewn house programming, subtly inlaid field recordings and otherworldly, soulful choirs, the opening cut sets the tone for the cross-dimensional trip ahead in fine hypnagogic style.

Dreamweaving EP

PREMIERE : Albin - Time Collapse

The sun gradually dawns on a vast metropolis, and within minutes the city comes alive. The bustling sound of traffic floods the streets, vendors on market stalls begin to sell and barter — some are pushier than others. In the ocean of people going about their morning, on one of the mains strips, a yellow rickshaw appears, driving against the flow of the crowd. In the back is a teenage boy, wide eyed, caught up in the wonder of the beautiful chaos. He looks down at his grubby palm and starts counting coins. When he finishes, he cracks a smile and puts them back in his pocket.

As the rickshaw pulls up outside a closed down restaurant, the boy shouts ‘thanks!’, runs off without paying, and slips into a derelict side street. He peers around the corner to check on the driver… he’s not chasing him, instead the driver looks hopeless and frustrated, before admitting defeat and driving off. The boy bursts into laughter and continues to walk down the side street and into the main market, he is spoilt for choice on what to spend his newly ‘earnt’ money on.

Brixton’s Dream Diary label continue their new Singles Club series with an instalment from World Unknown and No Speakers alumni Peter Rocket; "a bubbling force of nature who has an imagination that travels at escape velocity from the rigid confines of modern electronic music". 'Chuffed' immediately takes on a life of its own, led by the commanding yet joyous horns, and clever percussive breakdowns that defy convention and time signature. The layers as a whole culminate into pure energy and buzz - sound bites breath disruption and chaos into the track, whilst the horns and driving bass provide the stability to counteract it. The result is a thoroughly enjoyable tightrope walk that sets you free whilst keeping you on your toes.

PREMIERE: Peter Rocket - Chuffed [Dream Diary]

He watched with careful attention, gazing out across the room and taking in those who wandered and meandered between each hallway. His third eye saw them all, it saw everything whether he chose for it or not. He could tell a thousand stories of precious, private moments thought not to be seen. He saw the secrets, the crimes, the actions, the glances and the stories behind the scenes. It was his gift yet at times it drove him crazy as he watched the world spin recklessly in full circle. 

Joey Anderson features on a new compilation from Release Sustain who have drafted in the big guns as part of their Conclave series. The record also features music from the likes of Lord of the Isles, Amir Alexander and more. This track features the notorious, moody, melancholy edge of a producer who never fails to disappoint, Joey Anderson.

PREMIERE: Joey Anderson - Third Eye [Release Sustain]

Online shopping had become her vice, or perhaps you could call it an addiction. Every day an influx of parcels in all manner of shapes and sizes arrived at the door, it was a wonder she could find any room to house them. Clothes and paintings to ornaments and records; the number of materialistic goods that littered each room far outweighed the depths of her purse. But she enjoyed the anticipation, there was nothing like waiting for that next arrival.

Gothenburg's Höga Nord Rekords add to their evergrowing catalogue of mind-expanding sonics with a solo album 'I'm An Arpeggiator' from Stiletti-Ana, who makes up part of hazy electronic duo Jesse. There are nods to the sound and production characteristics of Jesse's work across the LP, but it's imbued with mysterious, ancient atmospheres, influenced by the Babylonian fishing god, Dagan, realised through the Finnish producer's huge collection of vintage synthesizers.
