Belfast four-piece Girls Names released their critically acclaimed second album, "The New Life," in February and it marked a new direction for the band altogether. That directional shift is emphasized even further by a new limited edition 12" EP, entitled The Next Life.

With the artwork making a playful nod to Bowie's latest record, it's not surprising that the EP should see the band experiment with the sonic make up of their last album. Leading is "Visions," a spooked tune from the album sessions, seeing wide release here for the first time. Also of note is a cover version of Brian Eno's 'Third Uncle.' Recorded in August of this year, it is the first recorded Girls Names track to feature new drummer Gib Cassidy and offers a telling glimpse at what creative steps the band may next take.

Following are a series incredible remixes of tracks taken from the sister record. The first is by producer/composer/dance don legend David Holmes, who lends a somewhat European elan to the titular track. The second sees Gabe Gurnsey from Factory Floor add his band's characteristic dance floor focus to Girls Names' motorik groove, turning in something that jitters and pulses in a manner befitting of any track attributed the Factory Floor moniker. JD Twitch from the Optimo DJ/production team turns in a suitably grooving take on "The New Life," while Locust/Seefeel/Black Hearted Brother member Mark Van Hoen strips down and tracks out "Drawing Lines." The EP wraps up with a spectral take on "Occultation" by bedroom psych/ambient genius The Soft Walls.

All in all, it's an enlightening series of interpretations that sheds new light on Girls Names source material and points way to new avenues of exploration.

Girls Names - Projektions (Gabe Gurnsey Factory Floor Remix)

PREMIERE: Yikes - Corroboree [Midnight Elevator]

You might find that the piano playing at the beginning seems a little out of tune - that’s because I’m
not using the standard western scale known as equal temperament. I’ve actually tuned the piano in
line with the alp horn, the national musical instrument of Switzerland. It’s a really long (like, several
metre-long) horn with no holes in the sides so it actually plays in a natural harmonic overtone series,
so I think it gives the piano a beautiful clear resonance as well as (to western ears) a sort of gentle
wooziness. The rhythmic elements of the track are inspired pretty much directly by the original, just
translated into a quicker tempo with some added sound design. I’m really interested to hear what

people think!

HRDF: Who are you ?
K: My name is Khemir, Dj/Producer from Tunisia . 

HRDF: How did you discover this track ?
K: In fact, my dear father showed it to me, he has it on cassette. He has always been a big fan of the 80s Arabic music especially with Funk and Raï music.

HRDF: Why do you choose to edit it?

K: I liked the track, and I decided to make a dancefloor version out of it! It makes my heart melt when I see people from different cultures dancing to forgotten north African gems.

HRDF: What are your upcoming plans?
K: Do it or die trying!

Late last year, Canadian producer @Priori returned with his second album ‘Your Own Power’ to great acclaim. Released via his @naffrecordings imprint, the album showcased a more contemplative style to his productions and featured one collaborative track with label partner Ex-Terrestrial. The story continues as Priori enlists a heavyweight line-up of artists to rework some of the album’s standout tracks.

‘Your Own Power Remixes’ features new editions — like this rework of '2-9-1' from @Bambounou, with the French artist bringing his own style and flair to the record.

Stenny - Kembow

Matching supple muscle with brainy brawn, fast-rising Edinburgh producer @lws_trax comes bowling onto the PM+ series with a pair of widescreen heaters. As is now well established and expected for Peder Mannerfelt’s quick-fire offshoot of club-ready cuts, these pieces are forged outside obvious genre categorization, where it’s easier to talk in terms of sound and energy than style.
 
‘Pendrum’ is a long and ranging track which revels in knotty rhythmic intricacy, driven by a drum palette which sounds like it was sourced from those odd things you find in miscellaneous kitchen drawers. The space-age pads take these items and fling them towards the horizon, and we’re dutifully dragged along for the ride. It’s a true journey piece – a saga for the club loaded with dramatic peaks and troughs.
 
‘Now That’s Focus!’ similarly looks beyond obvious drum machines for its percussive hits, but this time it’s purely about the beat. LWS proves himself to be devilishly effective at setting a scene with not much more than a biscuit tin and a dripping tap at his disposal, strapping the crinkling of a crisp packet to a rugged kick and slowly letting the gas escape from his bottle of sparkling when the track shifts into a higher gear.

INCOMING : Aldridge Brothers - Open World (Lauer Remix) #RoamRecordings

Release date : 2023-09-01
Buy : https://www.beatport.com/release/open-world/4225782

L.A. sensation Aldridge Brothers, known for their fun and psychedelic dj performances and for their party Better Late, join Roam Recordings with their single Open World. Like the duo, Open World can't be pinned to a sub-genre. Open World brings together elements of synthwave, house, and disco into something entirely new and special. The single is backed by frequent roam contributors Lauer and Mijo. Lauer is up first with an old school club sound with a steady beat and epic pianos. Mijo strips down the original into a heavy driving version exemplifying the sound we are loving from Mexico right now. All three tracks are unique and complementary making this a versatile release for discerning crowds.

PREMIERE | southregentstreet - IDGAF! [Self Release] 2023

Nathan Fake and Wesley Matsell's new Cambria Instruments label already got us salivating with a split release between the two Border Community-affiliated artists in August. NF's track 'Black Drift' was intriguing and restrained, a subtle return to the fray after two years without releases – but now we have 'Nuuk' from his first full solo Cambria Instruments EP, and he's really cut loose. It's a stunner, somehow both fragile and nails-hard, and easily as spine-tingling as 'The Sky Was Pink'. It's good to have him back.

In their first official release (discounting the sweet, whitelabel Casino Edits 2) since their full-length album on Wolf Music, Familiar Circles, London-based duo @Casino-Times has teamed up with Swedish imprint @Omena-records for a four track EP. The label, run by @Tooli of @LocalTalk fame, has a sound that could best be characterized as whimsical and airy, with cheerful chord progressions and rare rhythms often decorating their tracks. The Decoded EP sees Casino Times’ pensive, layered electronic sound combining rather well with the label’s aesthetic.

The B1 track  “Simulation Bamboo” has an 80s electro inspired drum kit being layered with celestial and moody synth riffs and well-arranged strings. Perhaps the track title does a bit of foreshadowing in this case, as the piece contains an interesting combination of electronic and eastern colors. The song is at once both ominous and bright in mood, and could equally be seen soundtracking a roadtrip as much as it could the early AM segment of an emotional warehouse bash.
