Dominik Eulberg & Gabriel Ananda - The Space Between Us

Apparition is my 2nd single of 2015. In words of Noir: "This record is special. Its even hard to fit into a specific category. Apparition perfectly shows Coyu's diversity and unique taste in music and production skills. While the Dub Mix has an early deep techno vibe to it the original mix carries subbtle and catchy vocals by Marissa Guzman that will make it appeal to electronica, deep and tech house lovers as well. On this production Coyu is inspired by his early club visits in Barcelona and it works perfectly as a throwback and tribute to the history of house/techno. We had an instant crush on this record at Noir Music and feel proud to release music as unique as this one."

Marcelo & Dustin - Spirit Soul Records In The Mix #004

Beyond a Kasper Bjørke guest spot and a smattering of live performances, there isn't much to kooky Icelandic group Sísý Ey's name. Well, until now – and what a way to make an entrance. "Do It Good" is outrageously fun: a bobbling bassline, coursing synth action and emphatic earworm vocals interlock to supreme effect; Neville Watson's aptly named "Power Dub" does similar damage.

It's the same kind of raw, untrammelled energy that Mr Intl label boss Andy Butler provided in abundance when stripping down to his underwear during a boiling Hercules & Love Affair session this time last summer. In a different set of circumstances, this would have been a nailed-on no.1 smash, but alas.

Get your booty on the floor tonight (or wait for the physical, coming Aug 14th).

My House (feat. Showtime Willy) [Main Course]

Our 29th release is the ZamZam Sounds debut of a fast-rising talent, the one Danny Scrilla, born Danny Pirkl.  Now residing in Munich after time in Berlin and London, Scrilla has carved a path through multiple labels including Civil Music, Rudimentary Records and several releases on Om Unit’s mighty Cosmic Bridge imprint.  It is these latter tunes that have brought him to prominence, and it was Om Unit himself that made the connection between Scrilla and ZamZam, a brilliant bit of A&R that we are very grateful for.  His sound avoids easy categorization - it is deeply rooted in traditional dubwise, while seeming to pull in rhythmic, textural and melodic inspiration from a futuristic revisioning of jungle, footwork and house.

"Higher Plane” opens with a gorgeous flute melody, pattering percussion, a test tone and a maternal bassline all floating in etheric bliss, woven through with gently decaying delays.  Almost imperceptibly other elements are pulled into the pulse’s gravity-well until the full riddim finally emerges, a restrained yet addictive 150 bpm rockers for sound systems on course to meet the rising sun. 

“Maroon" is a highly original silky steppers powered by rubbery sub and cyborg saxophone riffs with Scrilla’s signature woozy, detuned delay trails and synaesthetic holograms.  Alternating between half time and 4/4 propulsion, this subtle powerhouse of a tune has been championed on dubplate from DJs as varied as Rodigan and Toddla T.

Released the last week of August 2015.  Limited to 800 copies.  No digital. No repress.  Design & screen print by Polygon Press.

BC009 :: Javi Frias - "Time & Space"

“Over Paradise” is the second track taken from the forthcoming Echoes of Paradise EP on a brand new vinyl label out of Washington, D.C. by the name of Better Listen Records. It starts off with a bit of a filtered disco vibe as sampled female vocals are played over a groovy beat and bass while some keys gently loop in the back. A high string line amps up the anticipation and boy does it deliver as the track takes off into a jazz funk fueled jam. Led by a jazzy flute and super groovy bass, the main stretch of this tune makes it impossible to keep your feet still. Keep your eyes peeled for this EP as we expect this one to be a hot commodity with the release just around the corner!

RNT is going back to the roots of their Reserve series with Rose Cutz 2, a pack of burners and heaters from @rose-records honchos @luvless and @m-ono. Each producer takes a side, delivering a little something for any time of night, from the uptempo stomp of Eins A Legge to the slow analog pulse of File Save As. A rose by any other name...is still a banging record!

Rose Cutz Pt. 2

M.ono - Eins A Legge

The glass beaker sat upon the worktop, it's murky green contents shimmered within. This was the elixir of love and a potion of life. It was to be used sparingly as it was worth more than all of his worldly possessions combined. It had cost him his soul to purchase but now that it sat amidst the dull white room he felt scared. As he gazed out through the glass window he looked peacefully upon the autumn leaves as they fell golden to the concrete below. Up high in the tower nobody knew that what he was about to drink from would make him a new man. 

Banlieue Records return at the beginning of the new year with a statement of intent. Their new split EP features a number of prominent artists including Nummer, Benoit B, D'Marc Cantu and more.

PREMIERE: D'Marc Cantu - Potion Of Life [Banlieue Records]

The sun beamed down upon the radiant black concrete. The sound of an engine roared loudly in the wind as the convertible cruised along the M1. It was summer time and the beach was calling out to the gang. Music bellowed from the open top cabin and the breeze blew coarsely in her golden hair. She kept her eyes firmly fixed on the road whilst the whoops and cries of her passengers echoed in her ears. She could not find the feeling and she was not the same. This was not summer, not for her. 

Jad & The has amassed a reputation amongst lo-fi house heads and edit merchants alike. The new year sees him return with a new EP for Centre Source Records which will be his first with the Brisbane based label.

PREMIERE: Jad & The - Convertible On The M1 [Centre Source]

The jitter from the machine bounced around the room. It sent electric waves spinning between the cracked walls and cast a warmth throughout the dirty, dank basement. The people in the room did not care, they simply enjoyed the relentless sound of my bleep as it echoed eerily down the tunnel. The brick wall rocked abruptly as it shuddered under the weight of the noise. Water dripped from the ceiling up above and there was little air left amidst the space. Yet they continued to dance...

Efde is set to release a new EP on Voyage Direct, it will be the 26th edition to appear on the record label. The release follows on from his previous EP's which have appeared on Nordik Netrecords and Soweso. This time he digs deep as he explores the dramatic edges of techno whilst adding a lush musical edge.

My Bleep

PREMIERE: Efde - My Bleep [Voyage Direct]

The members of the household had gathered to watch the decline of the empire. As the humble leader spoke to the members of the cult on the ground below they watched as the tears poured down his face. This was not a moment of sadness but a time of joy, for in death he had completed his purpose on earth. A slow menage, a beautiful mind, a message which would last forever across the width of time. The cult would be theirs very soon. 

Marion Poncet steps up with a jacking house focussed EP with rugged samples and a hint of that old school French touch we lost decades ago. This release comes accompanied with a remix from Borrowed Identity.

PREMIERE: Marion Poncet - Slow Menage [In The Box Records]

The waves rolled slowly across the bay. The tiny wooden boat drifted delicately above the water, the sail rocking back and forth in the breeze. The bang of metal on wood rattled every few seconds as the material flapped up above their heads. They had always dreamt of becoming pirates when they were little, this was the outcome. It was not to be quite as they had imagined but out at sea the pair found themselves at peace. All aboard the good ship Puntarenas...

Till Von Sein returns with a four track EP for Suol. Focussing on deep house he leads us through an array of emotive groovers and sun kissed sounds built for warmer days.

Forever EP

PREMIERE: Till Von Sein - Puntarenas [Suol]

The indecision was killing him. He struggled to make sense of the environment around him let alone what went on within his own head. The only way in which he had learnt to cope with the nature of uncertainty was by firmly grounding himself in a singular, solitary maybe. No other answer would suffice and let his beating brain be still. He wondered whether other people were burdened with as much crippling self doubt as that which plagued him day in day out. Maybe they were, maybe not. 

Larry De Kat is one to watch. His newly founded label Katnip is making moves and 2017 sees him kick off a new season for the label with a self produced EP accompanied with remixes bound to entice and excite. Dj Nature and Frits Wentink step up to offer alternatives.
