Glimmerman
Step Mode W/ Sputnik One Remix
FSL012
Dublin’s Glimmerman impresses with his debut release on First Second Label. 3 subbed-up modern club weapons b/w a remix from the on-form Sputnik One.
Step Mode gets stuck in, pairing twitching junglisms with a feverish techno dancehall pulse.
Proper awe-inspired club music for the now. Oxygen Sum is up next, layering submerged sound
design with a heaving broken beat-ed thud. A slippery aquatic stepper.
Cutlass is on the flip, an absolute no-nonsense Dubstep wobbler in the finest modern style.
Expect rewinds on this one. Our curtain call is with fellow Dubliner Sputnik One, as he remixes
Step Mode in his exquisitely supple psychedelic sub-tech style.
In memory of Josh Begley Taylor.

FSL012 - Glimmerman - Step Mode w/ Sputnik One Remix (Clips) OUT NOW

Everything had changed; the faces were different, the buildings under new control, the community destroyed. What they'd built with their own hands no longer belonged to them, people with power could take anything they wanted and this time it was their home - it was everything they'd ever known. If they could, they'd try and save it at all costs, but the obstacles they'd come up against were far greater than anything they were likely to gain - the odds were stacked against them.

London-based producer Simkin has spent the last few years growing the reputation of All Centre, the imprint he co-runs. The platform has been a space for experimental, rhythmic dance music that colours outside the lines and, until now, has been the only outlet where Simkin's productions have been housed. For his first solo release away from home, he joins the Pseudonym Records roster for a two-tracker See You / Deterritorial - backed by a remix from borderlandstate The Best Kisser In L.a. - which is characterised by broken drum patterns, dembow rhythms and chopped vocal samples.

Melbourne-based producer @pugilistmusic serves up some punchy dub on @branchpoints forthcoming label compilation, sounding not dissimilar to Shed’s finest output.

Various Artists #1

Pugilist - Apple Core [Branch Points]

Taken from "Everything Merged Vol. 1", a brand new compilation featuring artists from the 3024 Mentoring Program.


Everything Merged Vol 1

‘Everything Merged’ is 3024’s second series of compilations featuring artists from the 3024 Mentoring Program. At the beginning of the pandemic, label owner Martyn started forming a lively online community of artists, providing them with ideas and inspiration. This community grew larger and larger, and musicians started to connect both online and offline, across continents and genres. It resulted in the “It Was Always There” series of compilations from 2021, and countless independent releases, radio appearances and gigs, putting a host of artists on the map.

Working on the program made Martyn and partner Jeroen Erosie reconsider the purpose of running a record label in 2022. ‘Are we still interested in putting out records via the usual channels?’ Or should a label become more of an umbrella for various activities by a larger community, both online and IRL, with digital and physical products, in other words merge everything into one.

“Everything Merged vol. 1” features the awesome music of a group of 3024 alumni from across the globe, interpreting the post-pandemic phase of electronic music each in their individual ways. There are the contemporary percussive meditations of Adam 2, Solair, Klont and Brooklynite No Sir, the 90s garage and rave inspired music of Karis, Agôn, Slovenia’s Hatterri and Noise Casino from Colombia. The exuberant technicolorist bangers of Guava, Blu-e and Cress and the deep hypnotic explorations of India’s Chhabb, MarceauxMarceaux and The Exhausted.

Guava - Believe In U (3024-MEN4)

Undefinably pushing the boundaries of traditional electronic music once more, Typeless taps into the advanced and developed sound of Yerevan based electronic producer, Dave N.A. with the release of ‘Solo Move’.

Aligning with the label's recognisable mixture of both experimental and broken-beat sounds, Dave N.A. not only powerfully brings together both elements, but flaunts melodic ambient overtones – focusing this release on both the listener and the club.

Dave N.A. - 'Solo Move' [TPLS007]

Kouslin returns to Livity Sound with a second collection of slippery club tracks after the 2020 Vision E.P. With an emphasis on head-twisting sound design and a detailed line in percussive programming, the London-based producer continues to reach into intriguing new areas without forsaking soundsystem-ready physicality.  

The tracks which make up the Patterns E.P. stemmed from a period of personal experimentation, where Kouslin returned to making music for its therapeutic benefits rather than a fixed purpose. The loops and sketches he returned to and expanded upon for this EP bristle with originality at every turn. 

There is a continued exploration of dancehall rhythms on ‘King’, while ‘Five Four’ toys with time signatures for a jagged, fast-paced abstraction of techno. ‘Why Don’t You Don’t’ is harder to pin down thanks to its knotty beat and mutant synthesis, and ‘Michael’ flips the script further with an unexpected swerve into pearlescent melodic lead lines – the perfect demonstration of the honest and instinctive approach Kouslin took when making these tracks.

Patterns E.P.

Kouslin - King - Livity Sound

With his debut EP for @ofparadiserecords, entitled ‘Negative Space’, @pugilistmusic pushes his sound even further, serving up a masterclass in atmospheric club chemistry, purpose-built for a post-apocalyptic world.

Featuring four deeply effective cuts caught somewhere between offbeat techno, lucid breaks, and swaggering bass, ‘Negative Space’ is a four-track vortex born out of heat-soaked landscapes and executed with cold vein precision.

PREMIÈRE: Pugilist - Micro Dose

Five years since his last solo outing, Pev makes a very welcome return on his own label for Livity Sound's 60th release.

Having focused on expanding the innovative scope of Livity through a prolific release schedule, frequent label nights and the 10th anniversary Molten Mirrors compilation, on the 'Pulse E.P.', Pev delivers on his reputation for inventive, sharply-focused club music with four lean, focused club tracks across the tempo range.

From the crooked formation and pointillist bleeps of ‘Pulse I’ through the light-footed percussion and airy melodies of ‘Pulse II’ to ‘Pulse III’s strafing techno synths and ‘Pulse IV’s surefooted, bass-loaded house jack, it’s an EP of variation and consistency in equal measure. From the infectious, alien melodic lines to the elegant angles of the drums, not to mention the weighty subs, it’s all strikingly fresh and unmistakably Pev.
