Italians Do It Better Maestro Johnny Jewel opens with a stunning saxophone laced hymn to the moon cycles followed by David Lynch's musical partner Dean Hurley giving us a front seat view on a highway cruise straight into the Milky Way. Other highlights include Ramzi's intercepted radio beacon "Existenz", Legowelt's perilous planetwalk "Nebbia Vera Pelleccia" and a wave goodbye to the solar system in Lord Of The Isles "Meet Me At The Portal" . Released in two lucky dip colourways, Cosmosis also contains a secret DL digital only title track from Lord Of The Isles only available from QR code on record label.

Gladstone Deluxe is one of the most exciting musicians in the US right now. They make futuristic, deep, percussive yet smooth techno, deep house and electro. They also play timbales in NYC queer and trans salsa band Las Mariquitas, and are a frequent collaborator with fellow East Coast sonic trailblazers Kiernan Laveaux, Johnny Zoloft, and Mira Mira. They have released on Black Techno Matters, Data Disk, Misc, Innocent Music, How Things Are Made, and now Fixed Rhythms is excited to add to the Gladstone lore with their new offering, “No Haterade EP”.

A1 “Cleanse” is zippy tech-y house…think groovy, up-beat, sexy, like something you’d hear in a Titonton Duvante set. A2 is a remix, “Teakup - Where’s My Snare (Gladstone Deluxe Remix)”. Now the EP takes a turn towards psychedelic electro. Spacey trippy vocal manipulations, swelling deep space gravitational waves swelling and resolving. The B side opens with the “No Haterade” track. Arpeggiated electro that slaps with swagger. The final track is a longer, 9 minute driving deep housey techno tune. A bass line that you never want to stop, luscious pads, brain-tingling pings, melodic percussive synth runs, and a touch of acid.

If Gladstone is not already on your radar, take heed! Big tunes here!

Mignon's third EP and the first album released after the end of the Honey Badger Records contract, 『Golden Flower』 was born from extensive experience on the dance floor. It is based on the house genre, experimenting with diverse soundscapes by integrating breakbeat, progressive, and electro elements. The album was crafted with the goal of delivering intuitive rhythms and energy that make your body react instantly.

Each track focuses on pure movement and groove rather than complex narratives. Solid beats and various sound elements blend harmoniously, drawing listeners directly onto the dance floor without hesitation.

On Saturday 16th August, we welcomed @verdant-recordings label boss Andy Green to Inverted Audio Record Store in Peckham to celebrate the release of 'Rain on Window', the latest EP from Istanbul-based producer Havantepe.

Over the years, Havantepe has released on a range of respected imprints, including Dutch label spclnch, 200 Records, and Baum Records. His latest outing arrives via Vertex - a joint venture between Verdant Recordings (Andy Green) and Exalt Records (Jamie Bargeman).

'Rain on Window' EP features three solo productions alongside two remixes, weaving together minimal dub techno textures and atmospheric electronics, crafted to captivate even the most discerning listeners.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the launch. You can check out photos from the event now on our Instagram.

The night was dark and cold as he continued to march between the trees. The evergreen cage was not somewhere one should seek to become lost within, it was merely a passing place for travellers and people of the night. Still walking onwards he listened to the sound of the forest all around him, the cries of wild animals moving and scuttling amidst the leaves under the glow of the dense white moon. The air was still and refreshing as it filled his nostrils. Onwards and upwards...

Sumerian Fleet is a trio made up of Alden Tyrell, Mr Pauli and Zarkoff. A supergroup of electronics of sorts if you will. The group have a new album due for release on the beloved Dark Entries this month in the form of "Pendulum"
