Wallace - Willow EP
CWPT007, 03 November 2023

Having initially forecast his production energy into his own Tartan imprint, Wallace’s music quickly developed a cultish following among record collectors and influential DJs including Gilles Peterson, Optimo, Hunee and Ryan Elliott. Another supporter has been CWPT’s founder Palms Trax, who, following releases on Studio Barnhus and Rhythm Section, snatches four highly sought-after tracks for the seventh release on the label, each showcasing Wallace’s inimitable and enviable skills as an engineer and a willingness to stoke the sort of organic euphoria that DJs dream of igniting.

Amongst the curios, rarities and other finds that have peppered Palms Trax’s sets this past summer, it’s title track ‘Willow’ that has levitated entire club and festival dance floors like few others. Escalating from a disco percussion loop, ‘Willow’ soon brings on high-energy melodies and a captivating sense of something more ethereal, seemingly reinvigorating old tricks with exciting new flavours: if you only raise your hands to one climactic snare roll this year, we ask you to make it this one.

This refreshing intersection between flourish and function is felt even more heavily on ‘Breathe’, a contemporary electronic battle weapon whose breaks-and-bassline arrangement fluctuates between weightless wonder and heavy business. Frontloaded with the detail and atmosphere of a vintage Chems or Leftfield cut, 'Breathe' exhales then explodes all the skill and reverie of the most memorable 90s techno.

Wallace appears to dip into the chillout room for the swampy rhythm of ‘Masada’, before proving his slow-motion mettle, a Sergeant Peppering of psychedelia creating true hedonistic density and groove. In conclusion and on the contrary, ‘River Dancers’ maintains subtle hypnosis at a similar pace with much less, employing simple timbres and a stuttering, innocent vocal inflection to conjure wide-eyed whimsy far downstream from the EP’s earlier, maximal wonders.

Wallace - Willow

Release: 23rd Oct
Format: Digital & 300 x Limited Edition 12"

UK-based DJ and producer Wallace debuts on Phantasy Sound with an irresistible double A-side single on 12" vinyl and digital formats, 'Cravings (ft. Love Letters) / Concourse.' Bubbling with sensuality and euphoria, both tracks reinforce Wallace's burgeoning reputation as one of electronic music's most impressive new voices.

Led by a longing, inquisitive performance from vocalist and underground house music luminary, Love Letters, 'Cravings' builds from a simple throbbing bass line to an eruption of lyrical and musical joy. Exploring onset desire – risk, uncertainty, and ultimately, reward – Wallace's deep and celebratory arrangement interweaves with Love Letters' queer perspective to deliver universal satisfaction.

While 'Cravings' looks inward to find release, 'Concourse' goes for the jugular with a darker, more epic sensibility than Wallace has previously indulged. His flawless production touch seamlessly gifts magic to a widescreen techno epic that might not sound out of place on the terrace at Circoloco or else a field near early-nineties Frankfurt.

After ten years of shaping dance floors with his distinctive sound, Mexican producer Theus Mago unveils "MUN/SEA," his long awaited debut album. This milestone release marks a significant evolution for the project that began in 2014 amid the vibrant electronic music scene of Paris.

"MUN/SEA" represents a departure from Theus Mago's previously darker sonic palette, offering a more expansive journey through the artist's diverse influences. The album effortlessly navigates between genres—from the innocently exuberant "Do Androids Dream Of Dinosaurs?" to the pulsating energy of rave anthem "The F Train," seamlessly blending techy house rhythms with techno-infused indie dance moments.

This is our brand new track out today on Global Underground. It's a collaboration with our friend of almost 20 years, Brett Gould. 
We're super happy with it and even happier to have signed it to such a great label. 
Thanks for listening and we hope you enjoy it!
