The waters were crystal clear and calm. The weather had been kind to them; what a perfect day to explore the ocean. Below the surface, a whole other world awaited them: schools of brightly coloured fish darted in their masses between the vibrant coral, kelp and anemones that dotted the seabed, while turtles effortlessly glided through the water around them. If only they could live here amongst the sea life they thought to themselves - things would be so much simpler. 

For their fourth outing, Birmingham-born, Bristol-based imprint space•lab are bringing Rambal Cochet into the fold. Perfectly placed for the label's wiggly groove-driven output, the Ukrainian producer - who also makes music under the alias Volta Cab - serves up four slices of psychedelic progressive trance. Laced with spaced-out atmospheres and propelled by rolling drum patterns and subaquatic acid lines, Galatians Syndrome is one for the heads down dancers.

PREMIERE: Rambal Cochet - Thrash to Treasure [space•lab]

For the latest premiere on Viscera, Yotam Russo produces a cosmic slammer to ignite the cosmos for IDA's latest compilation.

Out July 10th.

PREMIERE | Yotam Russo - Forty Four [IDA]

Holly Lester’s Duality Trax imprint continues its mission to find balance within the music industry by bridging gender gaps and pushing the boundaries of contemporary club music. The next release sees the label's second VA come to fruition, focusing on six emerging and established artists that are all making their mark within their respective cities and beyond. 

Glasgow hero and resident of dance music institution Sub Club Stevie Cox opens things up on her first ever solo release, easing us gently in with a hypnotizing mesh of ethereal synths and dynamic drum programming, akin to the carefully constructed sets she has become known and loved for. Stones Taro, a pioneering force behind Kyoto's evolving electronic scene, brings his signature touch to ‘Iron Door’ and smoothly bridges the gap between UKG, breaks and house before rising Aussie producer DAWS serves a nostalgic blend of dreamy chords, jacking percussion and bumping bass. Up next, sample king Gallegos turns in a raw and crunchy acid workout that is sure to raise the roof with adrenaline inducing risers aplenty.

The VA takes a trippy left turn with Planet Euphorique and Craigie Knowes affiliate emkay, in a perception altering display of warping synths, shimmering gated vocals and loose drum patterns before rising star Body Clinic rounds things off. Fusing DnB and prog  in ‘159 Revolutions Per Minute’ against a futuristic backdrop, the young Northern Irish producer perfectly demonstrates the interwoven themes and concepts that the label seeks to platform. 

100% of compilation profits will be donated to Palestine Children's Relief Fund. 

Visions Vol. 2 will be available to buy digitally from December 8th, 2023.
