If I - Le Hutin (Demo)

Senses of london’s underground into steamy nights where cigaret buts and worn out skins are mind-struck into Edn Hak’s music. 

There’s no way of knowing how far and deep he could go, and there’s no need of trying to know. 

Shaping layers after layers of recorded sounds blended with textury samples, his music is heavily influenced by Burial but in his very own way. 

Bringing together everything that makes London’s beat scene exciting and what made us fall in love with deep ambient music there’s a feel of certainty in Edn Hak’s music that’ll make your head bounce over and over again. 

His EP is an ode to everything that we’ve locked down deep inside every single one of us.

Edn Hak - Wanderer

The haunting flowers would struggle to survive the winter months. The ghost orchid would lose its blossom and the cascading petals would fall quite abruptly to the forest floor below. Nature was a cruel mistress by which the jungle must abide, everything was in its place and right where it was supposed to be. The ghosts of winter would soon run riot through this empty trees whilst the animals slept in hibernation between the glow of the distant moon. 

Benjamin Fröhlich recently released music on Permanent Vacation. Now, it is his turn to be remixed, as is so often the way. Lauer, Shan, Jack Pattern and Cleveland all step up to reimagine his work. The latter is who's version we bring to you.

PREMIERE: Benjamin Fröhlich - Ghost Orchid (Cleveland Remix)[Permanent Vacation]

The difficulty with language is that it can be hard to articulate, decipher and change. What is said cannot be erased and taken back, it stands firm in the passage of time for a life to come. This is why such holy books have paved the way across the ages, they cannot be taken back. Nowadays it is all about a turn of phrase, depicting what may come next and rephrasing that which was mistaken. Perhaps in the future we will learn better, and take our time. 

Teniente Castillo is set to release a new EP on Playpal Music. Operating out of Madrid he creates tripped out electronic music rife with drive and bass. He is remixed by Undo.

PREMIERE: Teniente Castillo - Rephrased (Undo Remix)[Play Pal Music]

As he charged victoriously towards the finish life he reflected upon a charmed life. Hardship? No. Pain? No. This was all far too easy, in the distance he could hear the echo of a tannoy blaring out loudly to a crowd of onlookers. 

"We are here today..." 

All that nonsense got old pretty freakin' fast when you were running your socks off upon the bareback concrete in extreme temperatures. Little did they know that he would be just fine. 

Kiwi features as part of the latest edition of the Mushroom House series on Toy Tonics Records. He contributes alongside Ponty Mython, Tom Trago, Munk and The Barking Dogs.

PREMIERE: Kiwi - We Are Here [Toy Tonics]

Frank Wiedemann - co-founder of Innervisions and one half of German deep house duo Âme alongside Kristian Beyer - is launching a new label called BIGAMO, focused on music from outside the house spectrum.

Out 8th March, the first record on the label comes from Fred und Luna - an alias for German artist Rainer Buchmüller - who has previously released an EP on Optimo and remixed Prins Thomas for Innervisions. New album 'Im Klanggarten' is rather different - a new style which Buchmüller describes as 'Elektrokraut' or 'Krautelektro' - essentially modern Krautrock with an emphasis on beautiful melodies and modern electronic sounds.

We're premiering the opening track, 'Minisong'. It's a haunting, moody number with a slowly evolving melody that could soundtrack a misty morning by the lake.

PREMIERE: Frank und Luna - Minisong [BIGAMO]

Wolfstream was made in wintry St. Petersburg and absorbed the "cold of abandoned manufactories and the sound of empty railroad depot". The duo makes hasteless and mesmerising music full of analog synths, percussions and live basslines. On this cut taken from their new four track EP, they collaborate with a certain Mister Gray. Creeping out of the darkness of one of those ghost town monoliths above, it fills up with swirling ethnicity, military snares and sitar styled vibes. Coiled and apprehensive and ticking like a Soviet time bomb, it grows more menacing as you step closer. Beware.
