Let us introduce Kevin Murf, with his debut EP ‘All Inclusive’. The first glimpse into his world, and what a world it is. Five deep excursions, all contrasting each other, speaking about the endlessly destroying pursuit of happiness of humans.

From the chopped-up breaks and surging bass bins of opening track ‘Unexpected Jazz Crush’, to the supreme sound design & perc work on ‘Last Minute’, a bonafide club tool.
Followed by ‘Bagombo’, a janky, tribal post-African number which glues it together with samples sweeping through taxing build-ups and blissful breakdowns.
‘Small Hole of Large Absorption’, a near 5 minute atmospheric build-up of eerie field recordings and spacious samples, giving rest bite to the club weapons it followed, reminding the end of our naive world.
Lastly, ‘Unexpected Jazz Crush (Solastalgia)’, concludes the EP. Based on a neologism of distress caused by environmental change, it’s a stripped back version of the opener that gives a clean end to the journey.

Tracklist:
1. Unexpected Jazz Crush
2. Last Minute
3. Bagombo
4. Small Hole of Large Absorption
5. Unexpected Jazz Crush (Solastalgia)

Sonic Fauna Shorts, Vol 3 - Track #1 - A collection of demo tracks created with the latest version of Sonic Fauna, a new app for sound designers and experimentalists. The Lorentz Drum Mk I, a six voice sample mutating drum machine, is the latest addition to Sonic Fauna. This track demonstrates how samples can be warped and stretched to sync with the tempo.

On ACEN018 we welcome long-time friend of the label @Duswunder. Plated Body is the first four-track EP on All Centre, showcasing the breadth and versatility of Duswunder’s sound.

The EP kicks off with Adorned, immediately introducing Duswunder’s characteristically complex sound design. Enchanting pads lay the foundation before giving way to a disorientating DnB-adjacent rhythm. From here refined, abrasive textures dominate whilst tender melodies lurk beneath. The track reaches its peak with a dizzying arpeggiated melody, eventually giving way to the subdued choral pads.

The next track is Loccc, slowing the tempo but keeping the intensity strong. A range of meticulously manipulated percussive noises weave around intricate drum patterns. The track eventually breaks down, resembling something of a malfunctioning machine, as stunning melodic lines rise from the corroding rhythms.

We then find ourselves with the interlude Sprung. An exercise in space and weight, the track contrasts moments of enthralling intensity and near-silence, punctuated by shimmering synths and affecting vocal samples.

Duswunder closes the EP with Evo. The track gradually brings the energy back up to an apex with the introduction of driving kicks, accented by morphing percussion hits and alluring voices. Emotive melodic elements lie beneath the driving rhythms, brought to the forefront as the track breaks down, before closing out with another arresting rhythmic assault.

Plated Body is available across all platforms from July 3rd.

ACEN019 sees Bristol producer MISH provide his debut release following appearances on the cities Noods and TenTwenty radio stations.

Title track ‘Berserker’ begins ominously with crisp folly snaps that give way to a bobbing beat that is further thrown with punchy kicks. As the track continues it segways between sparse pauses and sub heavy moments ready to grapple with the dancefloor. 

On Ocean XP the feeling is switched up, with profuse chords and melodic flashes jetting between one another, setting the stage for an autonomic jaunt that’s motoric drive feels at odds with the title track’s springy mobility.

Final track ‘Rattlesnake’ hinges around a skittering broken beat that constantly mutates as pointed percussion weaves in and out of focus. As the track powers forward a sharp acidic melody splashes across MiSH’s carefully arranged canvas of drums as his signature manipulated FX take us towards a remote listening space.

Berserker is available across all platforms from the 31st of July.
