Throne of Blood continues the anniversary onslaught with the third of four EPs of new and exclusive jams from friends new and old. Following on from the first two Anniversary EPs which featured contributions from Joakim, Chloé, Justin Cudmore, Curses, Hardway Bros and more we deliver more dancefloor material from Pleasure Planet, Man Power, Danse Alice and Teleseen.

EP 3 kicks off with Sisters, all big rave energy owing a big debt to Pleasure Planet’s Kim Ann Foxman, Andrew Potter, and Brian Hersey’s memories of countless pilled-out 90’s era nights. In contrast, Danse Alice, a new project from dear friend and collaborator Remain (Meant Records) come with a slow motion groover, an emotional score for the comedown. Look for more music from this Marseilles-based duo coming soon on Lumiere Noire and Ombra Intl.

Rounding things out is an absolutely monstrous breakbeat banger from Newcastle’s Man Power, an homage to everything awesome about Chemical Brothers and the beautifully groovy “Sacambu” from our friend and long-time champion of the label, Teleseen. 

It's an EP of contrasts, another way to resist pigeonholing what Throne of Blood has stood for over the past sixteen years and a refusal to chase any single sound, scene or trend as we look to the future…

Guest Mix Processing Vessel for Jon Manley - D3EP Radio NetWork

The Disco Rogues are back on Paper with a follow up release to their excellent Funk Moves and this sophomore E.P. If late night jacking and chugging dance floor action is your thing, step this way.

'Deep Point' is a murky and mucky slice of after-hours house music that has a locked down, heavy groove that is perfect for setting the scene or slowing things down when it's getting twisted.

'IF' is a cinematic hazy highlight that is hypnotic, psychedelic and aimed at the cosmos. Swirling synths and pads wrap around a hook synth stab to create something between 90s Balearica and a lost John Hughes soundtrack.

'Let It All Go' keeps it deep and and trippy with layered synths, guitars, pads and more to create a journey into the outer reaches of above and beyond. What a trip!

'You've Got The' closes off the package and sits perfectly into that 'classic Paper' deep house sound (yeah, we did it before it was all man bags and beards!). There are stubby chords, chopped up guitars, rolling bass and snappy percussion with just a hint of disco peppered over the top to keep things sweet.  This beauty will test the bass bins early doors and fill the floor while it's at it.

Fingerman: "Lovely warm bleepy goodness. Will support these!"

Alice Palace: "Lovely EP, all about Deep Point for me. Can see that getting rinsed"

From Beyond: "Lovely deep stuff. Deep Point is the one for me!"

Steve Mill - God Given EP
https://soundcloud.com/steve-mill

1 God Given Feat. Bongani Mehlomakhulu
2 Copenhagen Ride
3 Dye the Bip
4 God Given Feat. Bongani Mehlomakhulu (Dub Mix)

Release Info:
Producer, DJ, fervent music aficionado, and record collector Steve Mill has honed a distinctive sound that resonates across dancefloors. Born in Greece and dividing his time between Berlin, London, and Thessaloniki, Steve Mill weaves his rich cultural heritage into evocative melodies and infectious rhythms.

The God Given EP released 12th May on Dirt Crew Recordings showcases Steve Mill’s musical talent and hints at the enormous music collection of which he is able to dip into. It’s the follow up to his great label debut “Love Attack EP” from last year.

The title track, God Given featuring Bongani Mehlomakhulu comes out of the traps as a fully formed Balearic stomper. Dreamy ice-cream-van marimbas enter the fray and deep tribal bass completes the audioscape, setting the scene perfectly for Bongani’s vocals. Thought-provoking lyrics from the viewpoint of someone born without a silver spoon in their mouth but still with the upbeat optimism to succeed in life. “Positive mindset brings a change of flavour / Overcoming challenges helps you stay centred.” Wise words indeed from this poolside masterpiece.

Steve Mill explains: Working with Bongani was super easy and uncomplicated. I first heard his work on a Shur-I-Kan mix. I immediately loved his voice and powerful lyrics. Kid Fonque introduced us, and we started chatting. When I sent him the instrumental, I asked him to write lyrics about the struggle of an unprivileged life. A few days later, God Given was ready.

Next up is Copenhagen Ride - a deep house drumline washed in broad watercolour strokes of warm, laid-back synths. Think of a hazy dusk; daytime giving way to the first twinkling lights of the city as afternoon becomes evening.

Steve Mill gives us the lowdown: This is a tribute track to a holiday with one of my best friends in Copenhagen a few years ago. We’d blast some amazing deep house tunes in the car and travel around the city and the suburbs. The warm sounds inspired this super deep track that came out so easily, having that picture in my mind. The minimal perfection of the city would always inspire me.

Dye the Bip takes us from dusk and onto the dancefloor. This track has an infectiously catchy hook line that will stay in your head way after you return home from the club.

Steve Mill recalls: Dye The Bip came to me one morning. The lead was inspired by the Krystal Klear sound: Easy in the ear, yet catchy and meaningful. The pads and the arpeggio based bassline followed. Some big reverbs on the snare drum compliment the whole package of the track. I had a tune that you can hum and that was my goal from the start!

Club Soda - Basso E Batteria (Cristalli Liquidi Mix)
Basso E Batteria EP
Label: Flexi Cuts
Release date: 09-Jun-23
Buy: https://flexi-cuts.bandcamp.com/album/basso-e-batteria-ep


Flexi is an independent record store and label located in Lugo, founded by Simone Guerra. Sitting halfway between Bologna and Rimini, the shop opened in ‘84, has always been aimed at DJs and record-lovers, devoted to the sounds of the warm and soulful, of disco, acid jazz and house. Flexi Cuts the label, was born in 2016 and it releases a glorious array of music from talented artists about the globe.

Next up on Flex Cuts is fellow Italian project Club Soda; a trio made up of Nicola on bass, Simone on drums and samplers, and Filippo on keys. Their first LP, Vibin' Places dropped in 2020, and was a versatile collection of electronica that hits different, whether you're a listener, DJ, or clubber.

On this new entitled Basso e Batteria, the A1 kicks off with Sara Loreni on vocals. Sarah also penned the lyrics, and clear echoes of the 00’s vocal house joints can be heard. You may be forgiven for thinking it was recorded in a Chicago basement, as the dirty grooves, thumping bass, and enveloping pads create a free-form vibe.

On the B side Cristalli Liquidi's Remix of the title cut moves hard with bouncing rhythms, a wild bassline, and a catchy vocal cut. Hill's Dub Mix is straight up and trippy; you could be lost in a warehouse at 6am, as its dreamy pads, solid bassline, and rhythms pull you in.

Gin Tonic, the A2, sits well at sunset. It’s a pure jam session that is the signature sound of Club Soda, where congas, DX7 keys, funky bass, and an MPC chops seal the deal of sound.

Angles Morts - A + D ( Pablo Valentino Remix) 
Dope Tones Records

Dope Tones is particularly proud to present the young band ANGLES MORTS ! Coming from the new jazz scene in Marseilles, this quartet is a newcomer to the French Brokenbeat & Jazz music scene.
The Angles Morts project was born in the summer of 2020. It was at this time that the four musicians, Raph, sam, paul, jeremie decided to express their taste for mixing the magnetic sound of 70's jazz fusion with British electronic music from the turn of the century.

Determined to bring jazz to the dance floor and vice versa by extending the legacy of the Brokenbeat, Uk Jazz and Fusion sound, they locked themselves away in residency
and then in the studio to produce their first single "A + D".
Discovered by Fred Ficus, the Dope Tones label immediately spotted the strong potential of this young Marseille-based quator!
This single is the first part of the collaboration between the band Angles Morts and the label Dope Tones Records, because in October, the label will release a mini album from the band with 5 unreleased tracks covering the usual musical spectrum of the label, i.e. Jazz, House, Broken Beat and Jungle!

Rewind Ltd has done it again with the album Saturday Vibes, a young talent who brings a fresh perspective to the world of electronic music. The album is a true testament to the multifaceted nature of distinctive Siberian electronic music, showing its transformation and history. It is obvious that pop culture has had a significant influence on electronic music, and vice versa, as the Saturday Vibes album seamlessly blends classic house and house from the 2000s.

Saturday Vibes :
P.S "I wouldn't say that I feel any particular emotion while working, whether it's joy or something else, I just get caught up in the process. I really like, besides working with the sound, to make up a kind of story that will lead the listener through the whole album, which becomes the basis of the concept of the release".
