Taken from "Bakläxa - Swordfish EP (Ecke Records)". Out December 07th 2023. Buy here : https://bklxa.bandcamp.com/album/swordfish-ep

Berlin’s Ecke Records continues to deliver its esoteric sound crafted for discerning dance floors and diggers here as Bakläxa delivers her ‘swordfish’ EP on tape via the imprint.
Ecke Records presents a new release series: ‘dECK’. Each release comprises tracks in digital & tape format. The work is from a selected artist with remix(es). The tape run will be a limited edition of 50. Bakläxa is a DJ, producer & radio host, she plays a mix of left-field bass, hard drum, grime, dancehall and percussion-driven dance music.
Her 'Learning Curves' show on THFRadio aims to explore projects that are running in and around the city of Berlin that are working in the sectors of social change, activism and cultural awareness. She’s released productions on compilations including Ecke Records’ ‘F.O.E.’ Series and Paloma's ‘Paloma Vs. Virus 005’. Alongside these she’s also released a ravey two track EP CiV / VIC on ClubQu as Neutralised - a Cybernetic DJ Duo formed with pbl.fyi.
The release can be best described as being in the middle-ether between three pillars: deconstructed UK Bass, cinematic sound-design pieces & soul-filled pop-driven UK Techno tools. The signature track ‘swordfish’ sets the scene with a heavily emotion laden outing. Sensual vocal hits are inter-spliced with a evocative melody line, complemented with movie-scene worthy sound-design distorted bass hits. Next up is ‘tool’, a straight up no nonsense club track that has what can be described as a certain cheeky nature. Pokey percussion intersects the mix, a warm bass and viber pads can be found complimenting each other as the tune unfolds.
‘have faith’ is up next, washing pads find themselves complemented by a subtle breakbeat that teases the listener before a huge kick switches up the pace. Again we see a warm bass introduced to wrap the listener in a fuzzy blanket as they cross the finish line. Ecke’s own Xantrax is up next with a remix of ‘tool’, the pokey percs of the original become crispier, with creepy vocals and an absolutely churning synth line counter-playing against more playful, almost future garage facing, that keep the listener guessing what could come next.
‘smh’ is a track that can be described as a ‘pop-tool’ - blissed out piano and vocalisms that explore the relationships we have with love & loves lost. A 4/4 kick is introduced to drive the track forward, making this a perfect melancholic tool for a desired moment. ‘haze’ is the penultimate track on the release, which sees Bakläxa partaking on a deep, sound design enriched journey. Epic pads, with richly effected percs take the listener on a fuzzy adventure into the unknown, with an eerie grating synth line creeping in and out throughout.
To finish, Suno Soniason comes with the ‘Escap Verte Mix’ of ‘smh’. Vigorous resampling sees Suno present a dub facing half-time 160 adventure across seven and a half minutes. A long stomping intro evolves into 3 different bassline sections, suited for the long-blend selector

*PREMIERE* Bakläxa - Smh (Suno Soniason's Escap Verte Mix)

Acclaimed producer, DJ and community leader TYGAPAW is one of the contemporary guiding lights of the New York club scene. Creating multiple spaces for the city’s LGBTQIA+ community to thrive within nightlife culture, their 2020 debut album GET FREE acted as a mission statement to dismantle patriarchy, racism and queerphobia set to some of the most full bodied, soul-rendering electronic music of recent memory. After releasing the hypnotic club sounds of ‘MYSM’ and the even more relentless ‘PRESSURE’, today TYGAPAW announces love has never been a popular movement; their second album and purest dancefloor declaration yet. 

A more hazed out, soulful meditation than previous singles ‘MYSM’ and ‘PRESSURE’, TYGAPAW’s ‘GLAMOUR Riddim’ utilises vapour-esque synths and reverbed vocal samples that echo through the track’s featherweight atmospheres. The vocals of one of the UK’s brightest new stars of forward thinking R&B George Riley only brings further animation to the track, with her whispered tones offsetting TYGAPAW’s midtempo percussion to create passionate counterpoint on the producer’s vital forthcoming album, ‘love has never been a popular movement’. Hypnotic, blissful and packed with subtle kinetic energy, ‘GLAMOUR Riddim’ is made just as much for DJ sets as it is for hedonistic, sweat-soaked nights that last until the sun rises. 

In eight tracks that hopscotch across atmospheric techno and East Coast club, TYGAPAW’s forthcoming new album love has never been a popular movement addresses, with unshakable confidence, fierce self-love and TYGAPAW's journey as a Jamaican reckoning with their trans identity. Taking the propulsive energy accumulated from relentless touring since the release of GET FREE, TYGAPAW has transposed that devastating frission into a focused, intentional and wholly vital work of club music, without ever losing it’s power to demand movement from its listener. An electronic artist that means so much to so many people, they have taken their time to craft their vital, unique sound into something even more urgent; creating an escape from the overbearing nature of the outside world - a space where the listener can be whoever they want to be. With love has never been a popular movement, TYGAPAW will cement their status as one of the most important artists in the NY club scene, broadening their cathartic sound to new horizons as they do it. 

In anticipation of the release of love has never been a popular movement, TYGAPAW is on tour across Europe, previewing tracks from the album to crowds across the continent. Full dates below:
