Beep Tzt - Split

Forthcoming track from my new Album on @Noorden

Been looking forward to share this for quite some time, especially because it's a personal journey rather than a typcial 'dance music' sort of thing.

It's been extremely relieving to connect the dots of the different musical styles I'm experimenting with to create a coherent storyline and I was fortunate enough to have a label on my side that gave me the freedom to do this exactly how I imagined.

PROXIMITY II, the second instalment of the annual Pure Space compilation series. Across twenty one different artists, the release finds synergy through surging electro, percussive techno and experimental breakbeat.

Together the artists put forward a collection of contemporary electronics that provide a wealth of complexity for the ear while shaping the sound of local music.

Devoted Pure Space listeners are joined by new producers, friends and some of our most aspired Australian producers to form this exciting release.

100% of proceeds will be donated to Aboriginal Legal Services; based in Redfern it is the first Aboriginal Legal Service in Australia and the first free legal assistance service in the country. www.alsnswact.org.au

Big thank you to Brendan from Cirrus audio and Mikaela Stafford for their contributions to this fundraising release.

Leck Meine Bahn - they are back! These two space cadets bring back home some heavy radiated elements from outer space. After a two year odyssey, they return back to mother earth with an insane Live Set (Backslash Festival 2022) and a Battery Point EP full of blasting fusion energy. Their musical capsule comes packed with new textures, mixed up with an unholy but tasty reduction of Jungle and Trance substances melting with a fusion of Bass Music and industrial space chugs.
This cosmologic sound match is leading to a new co-dependency between gravity and bass. Their enigmatic grooves are ponderous yet playful and every alien ear which listened to this intergalactic call so far, could not escape this quirky dance atmosphere. Brainwaves music commanders aka LMB are Estebahn and Yolek and this composition is their second EP which results to an extension of new boundaries in our further rave solar system. Including two massive remixes by Jan Loup and Nuevo Prohibido to beam up every sort of flesh to the the next bass portal. Space alert!

19 Meditations

The clouds passed by slowly on a dreamy summer afternoon, the leaves began to flutter in the trees as the wind picked up. Down by the canal, people watched the water roll on down the stream towards the central river. The canal was like the veins of the city, passing life between the cells of the system which was swarmed and swamped by people in towerblocks and on high streets. This place was special, it was an escape from the struggle and strife of city living. A chance for something new...

Cong Burn is a record label perhaps underestimated, it has been an outlet for intricate experimentation and has been responsible for the release of music by the likes of Lanark Artefax, BFTT, Howes, Chekov and more. The latest EP features four indirect, forward thinking club tracks with a nod towards IDM. Listen to Lack's "Flutter" below:

PREMIERE: Lack - Flutter [Cong Burn]

Sincere, sarcastic and unassumingly seminal: Glasgow's answer to Basic Channel, Southside's answer to Pub and Sandy's answer to those endless afters. 2s on the balcony and runs to the shop. An ode to the skyline; a symphony for the local legends; a tapestry of downtempo dreamscapes - from Shawlands to Neukölln and the world beyond. A warm dose of future-proof emotion. Strap in, this is one for heads, the lovers and all those along the way. Welcome to the layer cake son. Forever yours, Dream_E.
