This release will have you dancing and crying at the same time. On his debut album, Paris-based producer and founder of the ‘raw poetry’ aesthetic Loyce Demellier - AKA DJ Physical - takes us on a fast-paced journey through techno, electro, breaks and more. Whilst the music’s indisputable home is the club, Physical teases out moments of playfulness and sentimentality amongst hard-hitting electronics.

‘Silver Lake’ LP resides on the colder, more industrial side of Demellier’s sonic spectrum, following on from his latest release on London imprint 1Ø PILLS MATE which saw him depart from the more lofi quality of his previous releases in favour of a raw, club-focused sound. On the A-side, Demellier situates the release within the context of old warehouse raves, with euphoric acid melodies and a 140BPM propulsion (‘Uranium’); and high-pitched synth stabs that ascend from darkness (‘Gold Mines’). The B-side maintains the pace, but this time it’s about electro and breaks. On ‘Overshoot’, reverberating cymbals add another layer of depth to Amen break interludes whilst ‘Lawbreaker’ harnesses a cheekier tone, offering respite from the previous tracks’ venom.

This air of playfulness sticks around on ‘Lunatic State’ helped by MPC drum claps and a ludic electro melody, before fellow Parisian Ika Sile steps up for ‘Early Sprinter’ and ‘Bootybounce’: the former offering a slicker take on acid techno and the latter: rave music at its absolute with piano stabs and sleazy vocal chops

ATTACK / DECAY / SUSTAIN VOLUME II

Exhilarating change is coming. Disruptive, Revolutionary, Violent even. Yet it is necessary. It brings freedom and enlightenment in it's wake.
Complacency and security has given birth to destruction. We are starved of sustenance and yet the world burns. With positive energy and activity we must tear down convention. We must kill culture and replace it with our own...

AC1D VICIOUS - LAUNCHING ROCKETS

"Sir Hiss explores unique liminal spaces, at the hitherto-unexplored nexus where proto-grime meets Drexciyan aqua-electro" - is how we imagine some publications might describe this, a thundering two-tracker on his ever-more essential No More Mailouts imprint. 'Set Speed' may reference classic DJ Krust in the title, but the intense, writhing mid-bass and precision drum work fits right into the waves currently being surfed by DJs such as Ben UFO, Sam Binga and the Zenker Brothers.

'Boom Sound' leads with the kind of grimey flute Wonder dreamt of back in 2003, matching it with a super-direct square bass straight from the JME production archives, but again, the rolling hats and robo-funk clap work places this firmly into the grime / electro crossover world Hiss is boldly exploring in his work.

Essential!

Scorsese Baby Daddy (Oatesie's 160 Mix)

This second EP from Alex Jungle comes with the standard amount of chaos and confusion, what with it being titled Chapter Three. But once again, Alex drops four demented breakbeat tracks, flexing his muscles with both the old skool and the classic jungle styles, yet keeping his eyes on progression and innovation. The only thing better than having this Chapter Three EP would be having Chapter Two as well.

Available from 7pm BST on the 12th June 2025
