Following her hugely successful EP on Livity Sound, Surgeons Girl joins Inside Out Records with four tracks of consciousness altering quality with “The Empress Moss”. Coupling classical music training with an incredible ability for sculpting mesmerising sounds on analog synths, Surgeons Girl, an audiovisual artist, weaves sonic journeys with remarkable introspective feel and sonic maturity. The incredible Curses takes “Dark Moss Night Terror” into the night fog enchanted forest raves of the Berlin outskirts with a mesmerising remix.

PREMIERE : DJ Chrysalis - Big (MI SUN Atari Remix)

Coming in strong after celebrating its first year of existence, the Bella Ursa mothership resumes its journey through the many cosmic layers of its Nebula Aranea series. This series is dedicated to bringing together like-minded artists with a genuine fondness for probing the uncharted worlds between genre boundaries.

Curated with great care by label-head Letherique, this second opus digs deeper into the darker path previously set. Blissfully blending our notorious cinematic touch with a wide array of styles, Nebula Aranea #2 ranges from thundering Electro Body Music to languorous Darkwave and otherworldly experimentations.

Growing the Ursa family further, we’re proud to yet again welcome artists from very distinctive horizons:

· Arabian Panther and Frust (aka Blind Delon) from the boiling and ever-surprising Toulouse scene.

· The tenebrous dark madonna Lady Maru and Raw Culture’s maestro Asymmetrical from Roma.

· Geotropism (aka Cyclic Backwash), Akkadien (aka TeTTSUO and C.Ysme), and Orosirian (aka C.Ysme), three highly-regarded activists from the French free party movement.

· The mad scientist Cellarkalt (aka Snuffo) and John Carpenter’s secret son Balaban from Germany.

· Bella Ursa MVP and Dutch electro sensation Lloyd Stellar, along with Latvia’s devilish monk Cying Skies.

· And, of course, the line-up wouldn’t be complete without a few novel picks from Bella Ursa’s hometown, Strasbourg: Alpha Sect, Krauss, and Lethako, a new side project by Letherique and Itako.

It’ll be released digitally and on a beautiful laser-etched C-90 cassette tape.

PREMIERE : Lethako - Le Professeur

Track: Explore My Crack

In the middle of the summer Yeho, an Israeli musician coming from Tel Aviv, was wandering around Italy and randomly he found himself in the “Quintino Basement”, lair of Ninja Exotic Machine.
This casual encounter gave birth to three new tracks where the
duo’s downtempo and tribal style merges with Yeho’s crisp and raw vocal together with intriguing percussions samples extracted from live recordings of the percussionist Andrea Greco.
The result is an Ep called “36 questions” out on Pho Bho Records on the 14th of October.

PREMIERE | Ninja Exotic Machine ft. Yeho - Explore My Crack [Pho Bho] 2021

Outside the window the flowers were beginning to bloom. She loved this time of year, not quite blazing heat but warm enough to spend the days outside in the garden, surrounded by the roses and daffodils. She inhaled deeply, taking in the sweet smell that permeated the air; it was fresh, familiar, comforting. Nature always helped to ground her; it was the best medicine. 

A new label has been born in The Hague. Started as a platform to give electronic music from the 90s a second life, return_backspace begins with a look at the work of Bern-based Italian producer Marco Repetto. Made up of nine tracks, split across a trilogy of EPs, the release shines a light on his early compositions under the moniker planet love. Crafted during a period where atari-sequencing was widely used, the music bears a naivety that came with producing at the time, and sees Repetto layer synth stabs, warm basslines and crisp percussion over dreamy soundscapes.

PREMIERE: planet love - flowers [return_backspace]

Pho Bho's 6th release, Inverted Echoes, is a various artist blending different club’s shades.

Nero Zang open the ep with a slow emotional lysergic journey followed up by Oblako Maranta, the new project composed by A-Tweed and Radial Gaze, with a tribal triplets flow scanned by edgy synth, literally a peak time fire gem.
Pletnev close the A side with a trippy electro sequence marked by his voice.

Turn the vinyl to listen Matteo Coffetti in search of a new galaxy, planets are connected to each other through glitchy synths, Camboja draw us a dark scenario with twitchy screaming coming from who?
Closing the various is Hassan Abou Alam the Egyptian emergent artist with triggered voices floating on fattybass.

PREMIERE⚡️Matteo Coffetti - Hidden Galaxy [PHO BHO]

The restaurant was teeming with wonderful smells that seeped through the doors to the kitchen and filled diner's nostrils. There was nothing more inviting than a freshly prepped dish made with the finest quality ingredients, and this was truly the spot to frequent if this was what you were after. As soon as that first mouthful hit your lips you were in heaven; food truly was the key to anyone's heart.

Miami-based producers DJ Ray and Goiz welcome a new batch of producers for the second instalment in their Club Tools series. Just like their first collection, round two brings a pack of tunes custom-made for the "explorative club deejay", ranging from raw drum workouts to hypnotic, shuffling beats. On this one we're treated to fresh material from a handful of US producers - Miami's Bong Soup, NYC producer Will Dimaggio and Canadian-bred-Berliner Logan Sturrock aka FlØrist - as well as Seoul-based maestro Mogwaa.

PREMIERE: Bong Soup - Dr. Eggman [Open Space]

Following their debut album ‘Visions Of Ultraflex’, the Norwegian-Icelandic electro-duo serves up a mouthwatering extended remix 12" with two of Norways most distinctively renowned underground producers and DJs. Telephones twists ‘Work Out Tonight’ into a bubbly Balearic Pop block-party, fusing the vibe of NYC Peech Boys, Quincy Jones' 80s productions and Larry Levan's infamous take on Nami Shimada/Soichi Terada, all rounded off with a decadent beatless ambient acid outro mix. On the flip, the norse force that is DJ Sotofett, heavy-handedly rubs ‘Secret Lover’ into an uncompromising chunk of Cosmic Electro, with growling vocoders, rugged drums and stratospheric synths, progressively evolving into a tripped out dub-disco electro-mutant. Each side clocking in at approx. 12 minutes.. do not miss!
