dj_2button - Aurora Arrivals (MISH Remix) [Dummy Hand]

Had it always been this grey and miserable? She couldn't remember the last time she saw the sun; felt its rays beaming down on her face. What a difference it made to just about everything in life... Any mournful or anxiety-inducing feelings seemed to evaporate as soon as the weather brightened up, but this year that thick cloud wouldn't shift. It could be a while before she'd get more sun...

Redstone Press are returning with their first release of 2023 and a brand new signing: Berlin-based Londoner Kincaid. Known for his intricate sound design and slick stripped-back compositions, this fresh four-track release is another masterclass in his tight approach to production whilst expanding his sound even more. Across the release he balances eerie atmospheres and textures with crisp percussion, chopped vocals and precise drum programming for a brilliant debut effort on the burgeoning Glaswegian imprint.

First up in the Dance Data Summer 12" Series: @fingersofgod, hailing from Vienna, Austria. 

Lens Shift is a meticulously sculpted slab of wax from F.O.G., made for Dance Data. A continuation of his distinctly sci-fi, brain-scrambling style — warped, psychedelic club tools engineered to melt dance floors (and maybe some neural pathways too).

Fingers Of God is the moniker of Vienna-based DJ & producer Philipp Pettauer. Releases on Reptant’s LKR Records, Paris-based Grid & Dance Data explore various sorts of energetic, club-oriented dance music. He has produced soundtracks for stage plays, contemporary dance & short movies, and is co-running Viennese event series Unfollow.

We first clocked the young but prolific producer via Da Capo Al Coda, a compilation from Paris-based Grid Records — and instantly knew there was more heat waiting.

Early teaser for A1 Redux is live now — a tense, bass-heavy electro hybrid built for those deep dive moments mid-set.
