The mountain was ferocious. Up high amongst the rocky peaks a raging storm was wildly battering the cliff face upon which they had been climbing for a long, long time. Nazare had never supposed to be this difficult, a peak with simple complexity was proving to have a peculiar weather system which tossed and turned at the change of a breeze. Not long ago they had been basking beneath the glow of the delicate sun, the snow melted beneath their feet. Now they were under attack. 

Rothmans releases on El Diablo's Social Club, a release which has been supported by the likes of Laurent Garnier and Detroit Swindle. It was the Max Essa remix which caught our eye however.

PREMIERE: Dawn Again & Rothmans - Nazare (Max Essa Remix)[El Diablo's Social Club]

The chimes echoed in the ease of the morning sun. Hanging from the long branch up above she watched as the small metallic rods clattered together in harmony as their high pitched twang reverberated in the breeze. She was very peaceful out here in the countryside, the long grass blew easily beneath her as she sat up high in her perch amongst the leaves. The dense green of summer was all around as the heat began to pour across the land and enter the day. 

Tamten is next up on Polish record label Transatlantyk, an imprint which has become a bit of a favourite here at Ransom Note as of late. An assortment of balearic and house focussed tracks in an elegantly crafted fashion.

PREMIERE: Tamten - Wyrocznia [Transatlantyk]

The small hours were meant for little more than disjointed conversation and slow dancing. After the party yattering had become the norm, a mixed blur of white senseless noise and the dotted motion of a man or woman in the corner of the room swaying back and forth. This was a special time, a pensive moment which existed in it's own realm, untouched by the trouble and allure of the outside world. Inside the top floor flat she watched from the window as the sun began to rise across the city, the day had dawned. 

Brandon Vare is the next to release on Scottish record label Jelly Roll Soul, an imprint committed to doing things properly. Having run parties around the country in the tiniest of basements they have now stepped out as an up and coming label and have made their mark.

PREMIERE: Brandon Vare - Yattering [Jelly Roll Soul]

In the distant galaxy far away there gathered a colony, a band of brothers who were at one with the stars and the far reaches of the universe. On planet play there was no concept of time or limitations. They were a free wheeling gang of vagabonds who had touched down on an entity which would become theirs alone. The sea roared a fierce shade of blue and green as the lightening from the stuttering clouds up above circled in chaos. Go find them, up in the sky. 

William The Squid appears on a new EP as part of the 'Universal Broadcast' series on Craigie Knowes records. The label has assembled a special crew of producers to appear on the four track EP which also includes a final outing for the Deep Space Orchestra moniker.

PREMIERE: William The Squid - Planet Play [Craigie Knowes]

The noise from the hollow shell echoed around the whole house. In his bedroom he was free to do as he pleased, create as much carefully crafted noise as his heart desired. However, just for fun, he felt like today was the day to introduce the concept of the five minute bass drum solo. The kick bounced and bounced between the four walls of the tiny chamber, the window shook firmly inside the frame as the dull thud began to boom and boom and boom and boom. 

Liem and Eddie Ness have collaborated on a new track as part of a new compilation from Times Are Ruff. The new release also features appearances from the likes of Fouk, S3A and more.

PREMIERE: Liem & Eddie Ness - 5 Min Bass Drum Solo [Times Are Ruff]

The mountain was tall and sprawling before them. The group looked up towards the sky but the peak may as well have been transparent for it was lost amidst the clouds way up high. The sky was a dark shade of grey and there was a cold wind which blew prominently through base camp. They had already travelled halfway but each of them knew that what lay ahead would be the most difficult part of the journey to date. The tent struggled under the howling wind. 

World of Batter appears on the fourth edition of the Tone Dropout series. The EP is a profound assortment of techno, acid house and all that other good stuff which keeps the label very much on our radar. Unpretentious, hassle free and club ready. Just the way we like them.

PREMIERE: World Of Batter - Peaks Transparent [Tone Dropout]
