Emotional Melodical

VONDA7 - Heavy Sleeper (JJ's Late Nite Electro) [Fantastic Voyage]

The leaves on the tree swayed gently in the breeze, casting a shadow across the river below. Barely a sound permeated the air, only the soft trickling of the river's current and the sweet coo of the birds overhead. This place instilled a deep feeling of tranquility. A space to reflect, to remember and to look towards the future. 

For their third release London-based imprint Room II Records are calling on the skills of Slacker, a producer who's previously landed on Lobster Theremin and their UNDR sub-label. Signalling a more atmospheric and reflective direction than his previous outings, Mists Lift takes inspiration from elements of jungle, hardcore and DnB and half-time.

Speaking about the release, Slacker explains "I wrote these tracks when I lived with my parents and started working with children in need; it's my effort to navigate the themes of grief, love, friendship, and progression. ‘Mists Lift’ serves both as a reflection on this time as well as an exploration into the cathartic function that listening to and producing music have in helping me to understand the human experience. Intended to be introspective with a few bursts of rural life, I hope that ‘Mists Lift’ speaks to something deep within the listener as well as being geared to those special euphoric moments on the dance floor.

Stylistically, ‘Mists Lift’ draws inspiration from the atmospheric corners of the hardcore and jungle continuum. Although most obvious on ‘Escapism’, glimmers of the jungle attitude toward broken drums, loud basses, and glistening pads can be heard throughout. I hope you get as much enjoyment out of listening to 'Mists lift' as I did making it."

Mist Lifts [RIIR003]

PREMIERE: Slacker - Longmarsh [Room II Records]

Sincere, sarcastic and unassumingly seminal: Glasgow's answer to Basic Channel, Southside's answer to Pub and Sandy's answer to those endless afters. 2s on the balcony and runs to the shop. An ode to the skyline; a symphony for the local legends; a tapestry of downtempo dreamscapes - from Shawlands to Neukölln and the world beyond. A warm dose of future-proof emotion. Strap in, this is one for heads, the lovers and all those along the way. Welcome to the layer cake son. Forever yours, Dream_E.

Motoko & Myers are back on FT with a surprise remix album, stretching their Plover b/w Whimbrel 7” (FT052) into 14 tracks by handing over the binoculars to a host of remixers.

“Plover” in particular is taken to techno heights only hinted at in the original by many of the producers, its beautiful melody acting like pure dance information, moldable into shape. Perko, Unknown Mobile and Davis Galvin get super busy with it for all the deejays, Doc Sleep & Glenn Astro (collaborating together) encase the collection in a 3-song suite of a remix, Ali Berger houses it down, Category goes off the dub deep end, and Flora FM goes full Dave Angel ravelife in amazing fashion.

The drowsier “Whimbrel” gets shlazed, low-slung mixes from TMC and Jack Murphy as well as breaksplorations from Gag Reflex and DJML. Bass Clef combines both songs for a complete trip.

A major pack, and survey of some of our music’s finest new producers too. Tip!

Plover - Motoko & Myers(Doc Sleep & Glenn Astro Sleeping Pill)

It felt as though everything had been leading up to this day. Months of preparation, endless check lists and emails threads had turned into a full time job with the nights and days rolling into one. Organisation had been paramount but with something on this scale it was inevitable it couldn't run without at least a small glitch. Or perhaps even a huge glitch. Sure, they could continue to speculate and expect the worst but, whatever happened, the show must go on.

Birmingham-based party space•lab are taking their first steps into the label world with a mission to bring wrigglers and warpers from all corners of the galaxy. They kick things off with an inaugural V/A that rallies together members of the Holding Hands Records family - Desert Sound Colony, Adam Pits and Breaka - as well as Rupert Worthington, Alex Anderson and label boss Dr. Baird, for four tracks that traverse proggy trance, warped acid rollers and crisp breaks. Our pick from Breaka and Adam Pits is a classy breakbeat cut that's name is inspired by the time Dr. Baird reversed a van into a parked car whilst setting up a space•lab party, the party where the three of them met.
