Skimask Vol.5 Various Artists 


After four beautiful solo EPs our Skimask Funk series turns five! On this occasion we asked some friends for some gems and this is what it turnt out to be: a marvellous blend of chopped breakbeats, hard electro elements and deep vibes showcasing our love for the variety of dope electronic music out there. 

As a little treat we will drop a new shirt along with the EP (also available on Bandcamp).

Thanks to everyone who supported us thus far!

[PREMIERE] wemory - Like That [Skimask Funk Vol.5]

Connected

Rafael Capetini is traveling without moving. Barangandão is the name of a toy of African origin used in dances that blend the artist's exploration of psychedelia found in the drumming of Carnival with the bittersweet feeling that is neither happy nor sad, embodying the essence of the word "saudade," which is challenging to explain to foreigners.

As a DJ, he is well-known for his unique mix, blending rhythms from different continents (and new to whom?). Mixing with the lowest frequencies of the spectrum and inviting you to the cavernous school of Dub, Capetini manages, with this single, to create a new business card that showcases all of its culture and originality. With each passing day, the boundaries between their sets and productions become more blurred. With “Barangandã,” the distinction between play and toy is also set aside, both on and off the dance floor.

We turn to the past for solace in a culture where the future seems ever-elusive. Nostalgia, a bittersweet yearning for times gone by, becomes a refuge, a melancholic comfort zone. Against this backdrop, Gustavo Baida AKA Ponkan arrives with his debut EP, Memória Elétrica.

Memória Elétrica delves into the sounds that evoke this feeling – synthetic timbres, reverb-drenched beats – but with a twist. Drawing heavily from Italo Disco, Electro, and House, it uses these influences to craft a fresh soundscape. Rather than simply mimicking the past, Ponkan recontextualizes these sounds, imbuing them with a new, vibrant energy for the present. Memória Elétrica is a dancefloor-ready reimagining, a bridge between eras.

Festivus season is upon us (Seinfeld fans, you know what we’re talking about) and it seems like good tunes are snowing here at Bolting Bits HQ. The Glasgow crew behind Craigie Knowes is full speed these last months. Releasing excellent music consistently since their start in 2016 the scottishs are planning to postpone your end-of-the-year-parties until mid-january with this new release.

Meet TEXTASY, mysterious producer with two EPs already out pleasing dance music snobs this year, a certain taste for syncopated drum patterns and man of the hour with this solo EP. Following the path established by previous releases on Craigie Knowes Textasy creates hybrids consisting of experimentations with 90's rave culture and detroit electro codes.
Starting with A1, he mixes rhythms straight out of Motor City, a pairing bassline and a angelic choir coming from what must be an old digital synthesiser. Throughout the track a deep voice repeats an psalm you can only agree to: bass and techno.

A2, relevantly named Blow Your Head, is the lovechild of an old floppy disk (you know, those containing samples that were circulating in the nineties) and a subwoofer. Oscillating between a 303 bassline, pulsating pads, incomprehensible vocal samples modulated to the max and UK signature sound fx, the track tries to go everywhere and, surprisingly, it works. Let's not forget the breakbeats loop supporting the electro rhythmics. An explosive way to end the first half of the release.

Flip to the other side and you will be welcomed by Eternal Gun, a fast piece of what starts like a jungle inspired tune, switches to a UK Hardcore piano track with a slamming beat and then makes a cocktail out of those two portions for the rest of the track. Pure speed.

Last but not least, the track waiting at the end is the one we are pleased to premiere today. I'm The Needle takes a bit of the pressure left by the previous track off and offers us what is probably the most effective tune out of the bunch. Reminding you to put the needle on the record over a jungle break, the track then exhibits classic rave piano chords, the most famous (and satisfying) sample of all dance music history and an arpeggiating bassline. You will find the same weight in the kick and subs, the same electro-ish pattern hiding in there than in the rest of the record. With many of the same qualities it has the advantage of being a bit simpler, making the track more efficient and self-empowered.

You know where we’re going with this. This EP is a no-brainer and should be preordered right now.
