Lookin At Me - YT Produced by. Walter Ego [@walter-ego]

Today, Desert Hearts Records holds high our brother in arms, Marbs, as he makes his debut on the label with his Tusks & Tales EP. As the visual artist for the label, musician, and founding member of Desert Hearts, Marbs embodies the beautifully multi-faceted culture that this community has come to represent. 

Tusks & Tales is a journey through the intricately introverted mind of Marbs, a delicate and sonically melding exposé of the highs and lows fans have experienced in his performances for years. From the uplifting lead and spaced out chords of ‘Tusks & Tales’, to ‘Loveish’s emotive strings and intention setting Ray Charles sample, to the ethereal warmth of ‘Pink Skies’ created with atmospheric pulls from Dark Side of The Moon, Marbs turns from light to dark as seamlessly as the desert day turns to night. 

The EP also helps welcome Barcelona native T CHES to the Desert Hearts Family with his late  night rendition of the title track - a head down, hands in the air remix of the inspiring original. 

"For my first EP I wanted to put something out that explored all the various sounds I enjoy. Not just deep, not just tech, but tracks that had a little of everything. I wanted the EP to embody many of the sounds you hear at Desert Hearts and the influences that brought me to who I am today." ~Marbs

By not fearing his influences and instead pushing them forth as the vehicles for expression, Marbs has created a roadmap through which fans and family alike can better understand his innerworkings - Tusks & Tales is the story within Marbs that is not often heard…

As &MEs last two EPs on Keinemusik have been hitting the bulls eye of public perception immediately, his KM034 for sure will meet high expectations from DJs and crowd alike. What should one do within this sort of spotlight? Boil up the same old formula? Milk the cow? Play it safe? Well, &ME is rather going for the dont overthink it and just do whatever you like-option. Which in case of this "One On One"-EP is a collaborative effort with English singer/songwriter-enigma Fink thats letting musicality rule over functionality.
The titletrack on A comes creeping over the floor like an ash cloud. Built up on a grainy beat-pattern, having all lightness dashed out by droning bass, before Finks vocals are exorcising the ghosts of a heavy comedown. "One On One" has shaken off the facility of peaktime-consensus, before the straight kick comes in, but even that unmistakeable floor-referral is invalidated by gloomy harmonies after just a few bars. An obvious move against leadsingle-standards, but considering its omnipresent dark narrative and ultimately condensed vibe, "One On One" is without a doubt one of the strongest &ME cuts ever.
The offering on B1 might be considered as a bit more handy, but still: "Cape Coast" is rather grooving along a serious jungle-delirium than delivering easygoing beach-pleasure. A lot of hissing and chirping and rattling going on in between dense synth- and bass-layers, while live-recorded percussions are escalating into frenzy. Tribalhouse of a rather demonic breed.
Finally, Fink is stripping down the original outline of "One On One" into a sinister and subtle Dub-interpretation on B2. Blurred delays, sparse synths and occasionally implemented kick-detonations, reminding of an alarmingly lowered RHR. Meaning even wider room for his charisma breathing croon.

Vince Watson has now spent 20 years in the electronic music world.

To celebrate this milestone, Vince is releasing a 36-track boxset featuring beatless versions, reworks and remasters on his own label "Everysoul".

"Moments in Time", originally released in 2002 on Vince's second album has now been retouched, remastered and is an ethereal house masterpiece. We've fortunately managed to twist a few arms to let us host the premiere. Here's to another 20 years!

Release Date: 29/08/2016

The Martinez Brothers are absolute kings when it comes to bumping house music that possesses groove in abundance. Whether it's their own productions or their high-octane DJ sets, the siblings from the Bronx never disappoint.

Their imprint, Cuttin Headz, is the perfect outlet for this strain of rugged house that's brimming with attitude and we've already been treated to amazing EPs from Jesse Calosso, Basement Jaxx and of course Chris and Steve themselves.

Now though it's tome to see what Phil Moffa has in store for us as he adopts his Butcha alias for the '1001' EP. This one's had a lot of love across the board from esteemed selectors like Truss, DJ Spider, Leftfield, DJ Deep and Gunnar Haslam, so now we bring you the first spin of '6 Hubert Street'.

Premiere: Vincent Vedat - Sweet Agony

It can be difficult to mend a broken soul. It can be a struggle to forget. The memories of winter days past still glimmered faintly in his mind, a flickering dream which he struggled to recall in perfect clarity. He longed to be able to remember her face as she stared back from the path up ahead. He remembered the beautiful glow in a smile, in a wink, in a kiss. Most of all he did not want to forget the time in which they spent. He did not want to forget about her, he did not want to forget about you.

Based amidst the sprawl of East London you might upon an evening stumble into a party run by Let's Go Swimming. In recent months they have hosted the likes of Sotofett, Big Miz, Bell Towers and more. However, the formation of their own record label has since seen their relevancy increase dramatically. Doppelate is the latest artist to release on the label and he brings with him an expertly crafted blend of padded house, dreamy percussion and playful melody.

PREMIERE: Doppelate - Forget About You [Let's Go Swimming]

The blackness melted into nothing but a pale grey as a pink light echoed peacefully across the forefront of the lagoon. His brain was finally becoming warm and quiet. His mind was still, no longer pensive and full of sadness. The outlook from the boat was far brighter as they moved above the gentle rolling waves. He looked forward, no longer back, the past was but a blur which lay somewhere beneath the depths of the murky blue lagoon. This was living. 

IXVLF returns with rough and ready tendencies as he delivers a five track ep of wobbling synths and a distorted aesthetic. 

Involuntary Movement

PREMIERE: IXVLF - Acropora [Unknown Precept]

A warm air swept through the open window, the white curtains blew softly in the breeze. The white walls of the villa on the hill glimmered in style beneath the evening rays of the dying sun. Within the house she moved. A woman, a dress, a dance. She was a reflection of perfect beauty, a gorgeous vision, a magnificent dream. He woke from his slumber and this was all that was left, a fitting flash amidst the depths of sleep in which a perfect life was there. 

Carreno Is LB takes an atmospheric approach on his new release for hafendisko, a new sub label of the better known hfn. Based in the Canary Islands he encaptures a melodic energy commonly associated with the heat and warmth of summer. 

Preface

PREMIERE: Carreno Is LB - Woman, Dress, Dance [hafendisko]

A mysterious man, a monstrous mogul, a mythical machine. Mr. MM was the most difficult customer of all. He had escaped the force of the law for decades, some loved his raucous nature, some believed him to be a danger on the streets. All we knew about him was that he was a living legend, and by damn there wasn't many of those left to walk this town no more. He had become our idol old Mr. MM, whoever he was, wherever he was, we loved him. 

Dimitri Veimar is taking step by step to notoriety with a recent string of interesting releases. His latest output appears on Renate Schallplaten, the record label run by the infamous Berlin nightlife hostpot known for debauchery and intrigue. 'Lazy Trance' offers a spectacular soundtrack to such antics. 

Lazy Trance

PREMIERE: Dimitri Veimar - MM [Renate Schallplaten]

The mysterious villain had been terrorising the town for decades. Al Shark was his name, and he was a bad ass bandit with a temper like a rocket ship. His crimes we perilous and terrible, his heart cold and hard as stone. However, this time he had gone too far, it was time for the town to fight back against his vile presence. Within the saloon they gathered, ready to drive him out of town. In the distance a hawk could be heard crying, it was time to run the road. The sands roared wild. 

Kalbata is the co founder behind Fortuna Records. He delivers a middle eastern inspired techno collage with mythical properties. Experimental music for body and soul.

Al Shark 

PREMIERE: Kalbata - Al Shark [Fortuna Records]

As she watched from the window she had never felt more at peace. Outside the rain bounced against the concrete down below, she looked upwards towards the sky. Around her the tall buildings loomed like metallic spacecrafts. This is what earth had now become, a planet stolen by cities, polluted by people, lost at sea. The rain offered a meditative backfrop for self reflection, self development and the expansion of knowledge. She would soon leave this place, her time was nearly up. The rain would bring her home. 

K15 appears on the latest release from CDR which sees the label team up with the Croatian based festival and pioneers, Dimensions. He is in good company amongst other tracks from FYI Chris, Lismore and Ben Houghton.
