Roza (Romza Bootleg)

black.round.twelve is expanding its world and creating a new series focused on releasing long cuts of music spread over an entire record, appropriately named E X T E N D E D. Berlin-based Polish artist Maki Polne opens the project with two intensely hypnotic minimal tracks brimming with detail and production value. 

Highly influenced by Berlin, CdV-rooted Maki Polne's acute love for quality sound is evident in "Don Joy´s Magic Sunday", as both 'Magic' (A) and 'Sunday' (B) sound clear as crystal, with a frequency spectrum that's both wide and colourful. With a strong focus on psychedelic sounds, 'Magic' is built around a breaky, half-time beat filled with slightly shuffled drums. A collage of warped textures, vocal snippets, synths and quirky bass stabs fill the remaining space with class, making it easy to imagine the cinematic soundscape working its <magic> on any bold dancefloor. 'Sunday', on the other side, is a more functional, 4-to-the-floor bass-heavy roller full of bright colours. Echoed vocal loops and rising pads create a particular vibe that would sound totally at home on a Sunday morning at CdV. Extended tracks for extended mornings, no doubt.

The experiment: 
Could Jane and Luisa host and play an unannounced evening-long b2b -  no advance tickets, no line-up details, no social media posts or listings. 

The Petri dish: Gaffe, London

The result: Simply by telling a few friends, there was a gathering on a Sunday evening,  late in August. 
Low lights, only deep music across different styles, played through Gaffe's detailed sound system. A silent and respectful dancefloor, of only heads that truly wanted to be there, locked in to the music for 6 hours – a fully warm embrace.

Here is the first recording from that night (but this is only a part of the story...) 

There will be more – again, unannounced, on a Sunday at Gaffe, or elsewhere, maybe...
Keep your ear to the ground and do a little work to find us.

Cast out from polite society, Vain obsessed over the ancient vinyl technologies handed down by his forebears.

Driven to the brink of madness by his isolation, his unique style was born. Raw and fluid, Vain’s sets are a dialectic between man and machine, each moment a gesture towards an ethereal dance floor transcendence. Mutant minimalism, deep and microhouse sit alongside glimmers of jazz in an ever shifting balance between pleasure and jouissance.
