The water was a deep radiant blue, from time to time small bubbles would rise from the ocean floor up the surface where an occasional flicker or glimmer of light would illuminate the lagoon as the clouds came and went before the sun. Diving deeper and deeper into the abyss, it were as if he was exploring some sort of mythical aquarian dream - a planet nestled beneath what he knew existed and floated up on the surface. 

There was no sound down here but very occasional he'd become aware of a change of pressure, a heavy weight and a light release as he moved slowly through the murky blue beyond. 

All he could do was keep swimming...

Third Place are set to release a new EP from Later Version, a beautiful assortment of fluid tracks which draw influence from a sense of weightlessness and ambient textures. Later Version is made up of Oakland-based artists Dan Letson and Jerod S. Rivera.

The mighty C.A.R. returns to Ransom Note Records with splendid new single, Anzu, for another excursion into hitherto uncharted territory. Their first new music on Ransom Note Records since the 2020 LP, Crossing Prior Street, C.A.R. (aka Chloé Raunet + Joni Green on live duties) treats us to an Avant Pop masterpiece, which conceals a somewhat insalubrious undercurrent...

Anzu is a song drenched in personal history, written about bygone days, when life revolved around a now lost pub in a sewn-up pocket of town. References might scream from the sleeve, but we’re not swimming in nostalgia. This is a deceivingly dark song. Any sweetness chased at the time ain’t to be sugar-coated.

On the flip side, R$N Records and Bytes regular GLOK (a.k.a. Andy Bell of Ride and Oasis fame) has reworked Anzu into an utterly filthy little basement club number. Dripping in sordid fervour, the wonky bass line arrives like a shot the chest cavity, leaving us a little breathless at first. The sheer force of the forward momentum of it soon has us back on our feet though, as we’re propelled onto the dance floor, where this remix has very firmly made its home.

Available on super limited edition 7”, clear vinyl (only 50 copies pressed!), they come with an exclusive, hand printed tote bag, fanzine, poster AND badge pack at a bargain price of just £35.. One for all the collectors out there!

C.A.R - Anzu [R$N39]

There was more than meets the eye when it came to the city. For strange wonders lurked in places unexpected. Behind closed doors there was music to be made, a new kind of noise which would soon travel the world bringing hope and a sense of resistance to the chosen few who sought to hear it.

For this was like nothing which had ever come before. How could it be after all the great city had been through? The trials and tribulations were rooted in the DNA of the music itself. Detroit, a belongingness to the sound of a city which has burnt its bridges and risen from the ashes once more.

Ivaylo is set to release a new EP on Lab Cleaning Jams, a record which features a rugged slice of Detroit Electro Funk, reminiscent of the old school era. It is rounded off with a remix from Christian Engh.

Seasidetrip EP 1703 | Hjärterot

Hjärterot is a collaboration of the 2 artists landingstone and Rolandson.

with that project both would like to bring the organic & mythological sound of the elders and northern ancestors to the downtempo-scene. Ihwa or Eihwaz is the thirteen rune of the older Futhark - Futhark is the oldest rune series, which is rooted in historical tradition. Eihwaz stands in mythology for the tribe of the world tree Yggdrasil, which connects heaven, earth and underworld. It is the gateway to the worlds outside Midgard. EIHWAZ also stands for self-defense, victory, competence and foresight.

For our delight, Indio Blanco presents to us a 6-track EP named "El Caracol y La Luna" that travels by distinct sonorities and moments of his career, highlighting the diversity on references that passed by the artist's fruition during the last decades. Indio Blanco is the new alias given to the multimedia project created by the Dutch pioneer and multifaceted artist Piet Jan Blauw.

Piet Jan started his career by combining and developing distinct techniques through his painting with water, oil-paint, etchings, silkscreens, jewellery ( silver, acrylic and rubber ), brass sculptures and kinetic objects. He was a member of the artist union "BBK 69" (1970-1989). Also Piet Jan lectured at the Folk High School in Bergen, the N.S. training school for teachers in Haarlem and the International Make Up Art School in Cologne – Germany.

For the past five decades he's been involved on several incredible projects with talents such as the Mexican pre-hispanic masterminds Jorge Reyes, Cheko Mosqueira and Alyosha Barreiro. In the Netherlands he built partnerships with notorious deejays like DJ Isis and DJ Dimitri Kneppers and collaborations with avant-garde talents from around the globe.

Since the early 70s, Piet Jan Blauw started crafting and performing with interactive kinetic installations which became the foundation of his performances. These installations were quite substantial therefore the artist started to craft smaller sensorial sculptures and use them as instruments. He uses this signature technique until nowadays.
