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.

Big up @brucetrail
Out 12th August at all questionable record stores

Beginning in the south, the Bruce Trail hugs the ancient shoreline of Lake Iroquoia as it follows the edge of the Niagara Escarpment. The Path, over its lengthy journey, winds its way through a landscape of natural beauty as it moves up to central Ontario. 
As the Trail leads further into the depths of the woodland and Ravine, sunlight falls through layers of evergreen branches stamping intricate patterns on the forest floor. Continuing north, the Trail passes an array of plants and wildlife native to the historic forest. Vivid colours saturate the forest canopy, complimented by the sounds of the cascading waterfall echoing through the Ravine. In the distance a carpet of gently waving fern cover the rolling hills dotted with slow-growing centuries-old coniferous trees that reach towards the sun.
At the home stretch of the escarpment you will be offered stunning views of the Peninsula, with the calm blue water of the western end of Lake Ontario reaching out to the lush greens of the temperate rainforest. This is the journey of the Bruce Trail.

For Marmish Part II

"Fool's Gold" was composed, produced, performed, and mixed by Isobel Morris. It's her first original solo single since transitioning. Hair & makeup by Danielle McNicholas.

How do you feel 
When you're trapped like a rat 
By the side of the road 
Sifting through the lead 
For some glimmer of gold? 

How do you know 
That the wheel keeps on turning 
When you're not around 
Will it still go around and around? 

Who's got the inclination now? 

Oh we'll find it in our time 
Smile and cross the wires 

Show me the key to a common mystique 
Where you learn not to speak 
Lest you seem indiscreet 
Plotting out your retreat 

And what's to be said 
When you're dead on your feet 
Like a living cliché 
Time has made obsolete 
Trading on 
Some checkered reputation 

Oh oh oh 
I can't listen to you anymore 
But I want you to know 

Your time is on the wire 
On the wire 

Out of the blue 
Some trace of a vague transmission 
Has made it through 
The purest love you never knew 
Was the warm embrace of a fool 
But the sound of her voice is fading 
And her face is receding from view... 

Oh I looked away 
So little communicated 
Yet so much to say 
And a fear mere words could not allay 
Can you feel the things that I do?

Fool's Gold (digital 45)

Fool's Gold (single mix)

Wow! Something very special for R$N readers in the form of an exclusive (no free) remix download of TOY’s ‘Clock Chime’ the b side to current single ‘Left Myself Behind’.  It’s been shown some ‘Love From Outer Space’ by the Hardway Brothers with their Outer Space Dub reworking.

TOY look set to be one of the bands of the year... and we're only just into February. R$N saw them support the Horrors back in December and we were blown away by the power of their sound in The Roundhouse.  They finish their month long residency at the Shacklewell Arms on Friday. Don't miss. Probably your last chance to see them in such intimate surroundings.

Expect to hear the track getting a full P.A airing at one of the ‘A Love From Outer Space’ nights next week.

Oh and it's 320kps too!
Sean Johnston needs little introduction to R$N readers. Great things already this year from Love From Outer Space traveller in the form of recent Mania Theme, already championed on these very pages. 

TOY is a Korg Delta led five-piece formed in 2010. It consists of Tom Dougall (Vox/Guitars), Dominic O’Dair (Guitars), Maxim Barron (Bass/Vox), Alejandra Diez (Synthesizers/Modulation) and Charlie Salvidge (Drums/Vox). TOY’s musical influences incorporate a wide range of genres including punk, psychedelia, krautrock, post rock to name a few and they explore experimental recording techniques in the studio.

With the majority of 2010 spent writing, TOY played their first show at the Cave Club in Islington earlier this year. Since then the band have played a string of live performances including Field Day and 1234 festivals and have supported bands such as The Horrors and The Pretty Things. Their first single — Left Myself Behind — is out now. Both sides can be downloaded for free from the Heavenly website — www.heavenlyrecordings.com 

Hardway Bros
Sean Johnston has been DJ'ing since his formative years in the frozen
North. Acid House Veteran, Techno Survivor, Hardway Bros, Beard Scientist
and Freelance Disco Consultant he has played at many of London's landmark
clubs from Sabre Sonic to Disco Bloodbath and was one of the founding
residents at London super-club Cable. He also plays regularly at up and
coming Berlin venue Salon Zur Wilden Renate.

Alongside Andrew Weatherall he runs and DJ's at A Love From Outer Space, a
cult monthly residency at The Drop in North London and The Berkeley Suite
in Glasgow, which has won plaudits as one of the country's best mid-week
clubs. Such is the night's popularity the pair have taken ALFOS to clubs
and festivals throughout Europe. An oasis of slow in a world of increasing
velocity, the club's manifesto is to never knowingly exceed 122bpm and is
home to a multitude of genres including ambient, balearic, dub, krautrock,
post punk, proto house, un-disco and other curiosities from the pair's
extensive record collections

Sean's productions, alongside fellow Hardway Bros, Jake Davies and a
mysterious South Londoner known only as Rico have graced such forward
thinking labels as Beard Science, Aniligital, History Clock, Astrolab, Luna
Flicks, I'm A Cliche and Is It Balearic?

The latest Hardway Bros release, Mania Theme is out now on Is It Balearic
Recordings with excellent mixes from Mr Weatherall and Toby Tobias.

TOY - Clock Chime (Outer Space Hardway Bros Dub)

(Photo credit - Fabian Kretz)

For 2018’s next expedition, veteran cosmonaut Benedikt Frey takes control of space command after making 2017 one of his several galactic conquests, putting his proverbial black, red & yellow flag in a stunning vinyl release on Bahnsteig 23, an equally stunning album on ESP, a plethora of killer remixes and continuing his record label ‘Love Pain Sunshine & Rain’. Need we say more?

His broad electronic taste is vast, and his sound can be a drift across the universe, a jump to hyperspace, industrial binary clunking or an extraterrestrial attack on the senses. Todays sample is the latter. Packed with ample 303, nothing could be better suited to help you laugh in the face of ‘dry January’, show it the Vs and prime you for the weekend.
