Butter Sessions' 63rd release 'Come Round' is a pulsating journey that spans so-called Australia's east and west coasts, connected by heavyweight producers DJ PGZ and Yikes. The respective Naarm & Boorloo-based DJs' artistry culminates in a seven-track EP — a treasure trove of underground club gems that blend techno, bass and breakbeat in a robust collaboration, including two-cross remixes.

The opening cut 'Solidarity System' by Gunai/Kurnai & Yorta Yorta artist DJ PGZ instantly sets the EP's tone, marking its territory on both club floors and outdoor raves. Anchored by pulsating 4x4 kicks, the track builds with flashes of melodic techno flourishes and a wub-laden bassline, which flows seamlessly into his second track 'Energy Monstera'. In this follow-up, the garage-style wub continues, underscored by bass-music staples like siren samples and vocal calls, while maintaining his dark techno style. Wongutha artist Yikes' 'Off to Work Edit' intensifies the bass with ample saturation, introducing a triplet-infused rhythm and acid-synth line into his flip.

'Ouss Ouss' stands out as the EP's defining collaboration, capturing the synergy between DJ PGZ and Yikes in their only direct team-up on the record. A deep, commanding vocal anchors the beat, while an irresistible descending synth-line pulls us into a hypnotic groove. Breakbeat accents weave in and out, creating a push-pull effect that both teases and satisfies — a subtle nod to both artists' love for broken percussive textures in this mostly tech-head release.

'Sidestep' offers a first taste of Yikes' solo work, where he again hones in on a distorted bassline to drive the track forward. Reverberated melodic elements and effects in the background provide a layered soundscape, with subtle shifts propelling the groove into a trance-like rhythm — perfect for entrancing a dancefloor. In 'Check Out That', Yikes features the same iconic sample as 'Solidarity System', cementing the east-west sonic connection. The track's bubbling acid-line injects excitement into the mix, evolving the landscape while honouring its dance-first roots.

DJ PGZ's 'Rewind Yourself Mix' flips 'Check That Out' with deep bass and acid-synths — by now this EP's unmistakable calling card —, accompanied by subdued, filtered drum programming that hints at the closing chapter of the EP. As the track unfolds, noisy synth pads weave throughout, before the track echoes out to a reflective farewell.

An impressive feat from two genre-gliding master producers of their craft!

DJ PGZ & Yikes - Come Round EP (BSD06)

Astral VIP (and more) are here to remedy the monotony! by rehashing what you’ve already heard? but alas, no one is perfect. Outliers and outcasts have always created pockets in the mould of the city, smoke and wubs away from the lights and hammer. This collection of 14 tracks comes from such a dent, representative of different scenes all dedicated to this approach, coming from dank corners, away from big business.

Our offering is a tribute to the mix CDs of dance before (Global Underground et al), with AVIP’s very own Dugong on the 1s and 2s blending contributions from analogous crew into one continuous mix. Future-past made present, for potentially discontinued CD drives. For the sake of tangibility, in times that surge ahead regardless.

All profits from this compilation are being donated to 3EZWA Legal Fund, to help financially assist those facing draconian legal fees as part of the current protest movement in solidarity with Palestine & Lebanon.

With Roza Terenzi and Sleep D on the remix, Alfred Czital & Ayu summon divine frequencies across a debut recalling the finest turn-of-the-millennium trance.

Spirits are high as we strive for utopia. Like relics of times passed – a bygone era where the free party reigned supreme – this is a union forged out of a mutual affinity for trippy dancefloor dynamics and live performance.

Rapturous and ecstatic, both originals evoke pure club hedonism. Sensual, sultry gear made of euphoric melodrama, close sweat and lysergic throb. Wide-eyed optimism coursing throughout, but like any good proggy majick, it’s not without a decent dose of shadow and ritual.

Coming in hottt with the remixes and both are befitting a release bent on traversing the wormhole interior. Oyster Cult acolyte Roza Terenzi keeps it taught and tightly-coiled on her rugged, propulsive re-fit, and not to be outdone, Butter Sessions founders Sleep D let atmosphere pull focus with a sprawling, dubby workout.

GIVE IN TO SIN. From within the long-locked tombs of lesbian lore smoke rises and draws its whispering curtain across the wide open sky...and where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Secrets concealed by thick drunken clouds resurfaces naked truths in the last gasps of smouldering ashes. 

Oh you thought it would stay a secret? We’ve let sleeping lezzies lie long enough. It’s time to face the music. Welcome to BIG WHOOPS… Maara’s inaugural offering on her new label, Ancient Records. With this driving debut, Maara excavates the scrolls, archives, and dossiers upon which our past was built and our future depends. 

A wish for a world of sweet sapphic symbiosis—a fantasy, perhaps, or a waking dream? Nothing is promised except for right now. The past manifests in the present, both a blessing and a curse. Ancient Records fulfills your dark club fantasies as Maara unearths simmering secrets and hidden truths in a rapturous ushering in of a new era. Never forget where you came from, and just wait until you see where we’re going...

Maara - Big Whoops (ANCIENT 01)

Pre-order: https://maricasrecords.bandcamp.com/album/maara-d-tiff-s-anthems-for-lezzies

@maara and @d-tiffany present a dancefloor lelenovela in five acts, 'Maara & D. Tiff’s Anthems for Lezzies' on @maricasmaricas - a debaucherous night of sapphic situations, captured sonically by salacious sounds, titillating tempos, and booming, brazen basslines.

The night begins with 'The M Word' - a summoning. An unmistakable, iconic mantra surges in and out like a siren, pulling in every lesbian of a certain era. Beneath it, a rude, rolling bassline writhes under fidgety, restless bleeps and crispy hats.

A true royal rebel without a cause joins the Step Ball Chain chosen family. Berlin psy-con Yazzus presents a sexy sweatfest; a four track original EP featuring DJ Fuckoff of tech-trodden club stompers that will shake and break you. Operating in a lane of her own, she draws on her UK roots with bass laden bounce and never forgets to add that sapphic touch crucial to SBC. “Rebel Royale” is keeping techno freaky, cheeky and ahead of the curve.  

Quintessentially out of control, elements of tension and release are toyed with throughout all the tracks, the building and driving addictive synth work in Venom & Vision; Serpent’s Rising sending even the most sane into a spiral. Basslines come thick and heavy, chunky by nature and particularly prevalent in Delicately Mad and My Lipgloss My Rules, they are the backbone of the record. Don’t get it twisted, this isn’t some run of the mill techno; the modular bleeps and freakouts, FX and vocals are wired and inspired; the glue showcasing Yazzus’s fully sick technical abilities. Last but not least, she entails the help of friend DJ Fuckoff; haunted slippery vocals are a match made in heaven for the percussive psy workout Erotica.

Loz Goddard steps into new sonic territory on his Physical Education debut—delivering four machine-driven cuts rooted in analog hardware sounds, with high-energy rhythms and dancefloor intent. Leaving behind the sample-heavy textures and live instrumentation of previous releases, this EP leans more into synthesizers and drum machines, channelling the pulse of classic club gear with plenty of added bounce. Subtle nods to the sounds and moods of 90s and early 2000s video games add a nostalgic digital sheen—balancing playfulness, drive and warmth in equal measure.

Four forward-thinking jams from a seasoned producer.
