3 years in the making, Haŵs 15th release comprises five evocative, glossy cuts produced by talented artist and label friend; Wyatt. His ‘Netherwood’ EP is a time capsule back to his hometown Norwich, turning memories into alchemical moments, a sensory voyage of stripped-back breakbeat, travel intercom samples and ear-worm melodies.

We have rolled around to one of my favourite forms of Holding Hands releases. The various artists goodness that is Slam Jams, this being number 3.

I have drafted in bangers of the highest calibre from the likes of Ste Roberts, Bolam, Inner Zone and Yosh. They go high, they go low, they go fast and they go…slightly less fast. If you like slammers, and I’m guessing that you do, then this will be a veritable day out at the fair for your ears.

OK enough of my blather. Go and listen to the damn things yourself and decide if you like them, rather than trying to work it out from reading a bloody press release you weirdos. 

All four tracks are produced and sculpted for the club. They want big sound systems and dark rooms. Close your eyes, hold hands and experience transcendental space flight...

Various Artists - Slam Jams Vol. 3 (HHANDS021) [clips]

"Fresh produce from the man behind the synths. 8008 EP is the sixth edition in Varum’s discography. Showcasing his signature style of bouncy beats with just the right hint of breaks thrown in. True to its creator, this EP is not playing it shy when it comes to bold synth-lines and making the best of the drum machines at hand. A wild ride in various tempi and vibes."

J.Wiltshire returns to MUSAR with 'Sunflower At Day' EP — a deep, atmospheric excursion across four tightly woven dance-floor tracks.

Marking MUSAR’s 20th release, this EP showcases some of Wiltshire’s most club-ready work yet, blending outsider house, ambient trance, and Cornish electronic influences.  

The title track ‘Sunflower At Day’ is a shoegaze-infused chugger that nods to the ethereal haze of My Bloody Valentine and has a rave energy reminiscent of Future Sound of London. Track two, ‘Cosmic Slap’, takes over with its deep, dub-heavy sounds and off-kilter rhythms, playing to Wiltshire's more experimental side under a techno beat.  

On the B side, we dive deeper into Wiltshire's intricate melodic world. 
‘Traversing’ unfolds with enveloping, pastoral harmonic patterns, balancing surging intensity with an organic flow. 
Finally, the EP closes with the cinematic ‘Rush Point 9’, a late-night noir groove that offers a perfect, reflective finale to this sonic journey. 
 
With 'Sunflower At Day', Wiltshire fuses intricate textures and melodies with dance-floor intensity, offering another great soundscape from the artist for both club and home listeners.

No Closer

The closing track off LKR006 is a spontaneous and colourful rejig of Upper Function by break through Perth (Now Melbourne Based) producer Roza Terenzi. Scattered arpeggios and a bouncy bass line sit between her signature sounding drum's which occasionally switches to the original drum's at moment's. Topped with cruisey pads and conga's it's a lighter take on the original which is hard to picture, but she did it and pulled it off with flair!

Physical's out now via a large range of stores and via our band camp...

Craigie Knowes are a Glasgow based record label who have established themselves as a go-to for any house and electro club-based DJ. Mainly due to the fact each EP is intended for the dancefloor.

The two scots behind the imprint are no strangers to the DJ booth, and are now being booked all over for their heavy hitting no-nonsense mixing, which spans electro, acid and breakbeat – perfect for a crowd of rave thirsty revellers.

The 19th EP from the label is about to drop in all good record stores, and from the consistency of the last 18 releases we already knew what to expect. Dance floor bangers across a variety of genres is what they do best, and the latest release from none other than UK hardcore legend DAWL does not disappoint.

DAWL is the main man behind record label Tone Dropout and fits perfectly with the Craigie Knowes ethos of hard rave music made for the dance floor.

Today we present the fourth track of the release titled ‘Obscure’. The rolling electro track has a bubbling acid bassline which filters in and out to build and drop energy throughout. The rolling snares and off-beat syncopated kicks create swing which is simply irresistible on a large sound system. The track could be used to transition into a different part of a set, it’s that important piece of a puzzle which you could play at any point in the night. This is not one to miss. Go check the EP.
