Dannie Fade emerges as an artist to watch with a fresh single on "Sinchi" that comes with off kilter remixes from Roe Deers and Tolouse Low Trax. The not for profit label is once again raising funds for the Sinchi Foundation and the support of indigenous people, which has never been more vital given what is going on in the Amazon right now. Fade only debuted his first music in 2018 after four years DJing, but has been making melodies and rhythms since youth, playing both guitar and piano. Inspired by the likes of Red Axes and Identified Patient, he shares his latest vision here, and it is a compelling one. The arresting ‘Demolition’ will re-wire your brain: it has sinewy synths and crashing hits scattered over a crawling, menacing groove. Squelchy bass underpins the whole freaky trip, which exists in some twisted world where techno and disco collide. Tolouse Low Trax is the solo project of Detlef Weinrich, who also works as part of the Kreidler group and is resident at Salon des Amateurs. Here he flips ‘Demolition’ into a chuggy and elastic, hypnotic dehumanised groove. It is mysteriously empty and atmospheric throughout, and for that reason keeps you locked. Roe Deers is a Lithuanian-based audio-visual project with credits on Throne Of Blood and Ombra International. His remix is the hardest hitting of the lot, with surging drums and endless synth loops that hurry along with warped sound effects and knocking cowbells for company. These are three brilliantly inventive, genre defying tracks and mark another high point for the Sinchi imprint.

PREMIERE : Dannie Fade - Demolition

The night went on and on, it seemed as if it might never end. It was late for some but as he counted the money in his pocket he knew that it was not too late for a sum. There was more profit to be made in this place and as he weaved and wandered between the lost souls of the night he thought about his life back home. The small town streets and the smiling faces of those people that had raised him, if only they could see him now. The music echoed with a hollow bounce as the walls moved beneath the flickering glow of strobes and flares. He took a deep breath and walked forwards into the blackness...

This is the second release between the collaborative duo which is Kincaid and his father Blancmange. They have previously released music together on Moscoman's Disco Halal imprint and was widely supported. Their new EP is even bigger.

It's time for celebration ! As the Worst Records adventure goes on and on, let's take a moment for a multiverse reunion in the form of our first Greatest Hits compilation. This imaginary space is the meeting point between some figures of our hometown and others from outer lands.

You will cross the paths of the authors of the first three releases of the label, namely A Strange Wedding, Christian Coiffure and Jacques Satre (also delivering a mind-warping session under Babiah 8000 alongside Saint-Etienne's activist Farkoner). You'll also hear from Del.Duc & Basic, members of the Positive Education crew. As special guests, we wanted to put some highlights on intriguing faces such as Itako, Gil.Barte and Tassilo Vanhoefen, providing there slow-motion, heavy dream-powered tunes in the style we adore so much. Beesmunt Soundsystem and Black Seed bring up some notable contributions from outside of France, whether it is for a raindance session or a tribal expedition. 
How to sum up this whole vortex of trippy blocks of sound ? Our dear friend Eiger Drums Propaganda has the answer in the opening track : some strange things happen in this city... and this city is Saint Etienne. This being said in a malicious voice, of course.

A1 Eiger Drums Propaganda - Megalos Technicolor
A2 Beesmunt Soundsystem - Nova Zen
A3 Del.Duc - Playground
B1 A Strange Wedding - El Cartel Del Sangria
B2 Itako - Our Favorite Methode
B3 Tassilo Vanhœfen - Schlangenöl
C1 Jacques Satre - Turbo Chaudron
C2 Christian Coiffure - Inna Givors Canal
C3 Babiah 8000 - Control
D1 Black Seed - Meta II
D2 Gil.Barte - Sujétion

This edition of The Bunker Podcast comes from our label artist @leisuremuffin, who has been holding things down in New Orleans for a few years now. It's essentially an all improvised live set!

Check his release for our label, the very first thing he put out:
https://thebunkerny.bandcamp.com/album/the-bunker-new-york-001


artist statement: 
"Performed live for the Mystery Zone party at Poor Boys in NOLA. The first 42 minutes of this are completely improvised live, meaning that there were no stored sequences or pre-recorded audio. Just a small 6u eurorack modular, a DSI Tempest with a couple kits to choose from, and an iPad to handle sync, simple looping, and mixing. I've been playing all of my free form sets like this (minus the Tempest) for a while now, but I hadn't played for an actual dance floor in probably more than a year. I had just flown back from New York where I played one of those free sets at Wonderville in Brooklyn (go check it out on my bandcamp!), and had about 3 days to get this together. I had cheerfully assumed that I could just toss the Tempest in there, crank it up, and practice for a few days, but that wasn't the case. It took me the whole 3 days to sort out how to technically integrate the Tempest into the iPad setup so I got maybe an hour of practice with everything working on the day of the event. I showed up at the event more nervous than I've ever been at a gig, but somehow managed to reasonably pull it off. I did eventually chicken out and play some sequences I had in the Tempest from ages ago. Those start at around the 42 min mark."

Dupla Rítmica EP

Premiere: Cándido - Shaktiman [Banlieue Records]

There was a tense atmosphere which hung in the old theatre, the red curtains parted and a beaming light emerged from the back of the stage with shocking vibrancy. He leant deep into his chair and watched as the show began to unfold before his eyes. In the darkness it was hard to tell who he was sat beside and who else might be watching with him, it should have been a private affair. Upon the old wooden stage dancers moved with provocative motion and intrigue. They left little to the imagination but delighted the fabulous crowd of oddballs. 

BAR Records was founded out of the base which was BAR, Rotterdam. An infamous venue which has sadly since closed but not without one hell of a fight. The label lives on and the next EP comes from Venderstrooik, an interesting, abstract affair which represents the weirder leanings of the venue. Sacha Mambo delivers a cutting remix.

PREMIERE: Venderstrooik - Escargothic (SM Champignon Dans La Forêt Remix) [BAR]

Producers Airbird & Napolian return with single "J.Park" and details about their forthcoming debut album, Mr. Foolish - a body of work inspired by west coast dreams and east coast nightmares. On Mr. Foolish, worlds meld to create a deeply engaging blend of American House, Cosmic Funk and Hip Hop. The producers' disparate environments are uniquely present in the material: New York sensibilities cut through in Joel's melodic bass lines, astral vocals and idiosyncratic song construction, while Ian, born and bred in LA, delivers consistently cool and heavy beatscapes, surrounded by psychedelic ambience and hard focus.

Airbird & Napolian is comprised of producers Joel Ford and Ian Evans, each established artists in their own right, who have combined forces for a record on Cascine. The producers met while working on Napolian's Rejoice EP (Software) and an easy chemistry took shape. 2013 single "In The Zone" was the first official product of their collaboration, which launched to an intensely positive reception by listeners and journalists worldwide. From there, Cascine commissioned an album, and two years later Mr. Foolish was born.
