This Justin Time Unreleased tracks EP is the perfect acompliment to the Sunshine Productions Unreleased tracks EP. This balances the rave music with some highly sort after harcore tracks that never got a full release back in the day. JT Goes North has been on a lot of peoples wish lists for a very long time & we had so many questions, asking if we would be putting it out when we started doing the Just Another Label remasters & represses.

KJAL06A2 - Justin Time - Movin' (Part 2)

SH soundtracked the summer of 2021 with his (still unreleased) edit of Ojerime's 'Give It Up 2 Me' - and now he's back with a flip of Oklou's 'God's Chariot'. It broods, it bubbles, it blows up the dancefloor. Bring on the summer of 2022!

[SSS001] SSSLIP & Joe Koshin - Wet Speed / Ooty (CLIPS)

Artist: Moonoton / @moonoton
Title: VA Spazio invasore Vol.1 
Label: Spazio / @spaziolabel
Release date: 17.03.2023
Format: digital & cassette
Buy: https://spazio.bandcamp.com/album/va-spazio-invasore-vol-01

The label's words: 

A series of cassette variations in the turmoil of the days is opened by a collective improvement of high-class Russian craftsmen — VA Spazio Invasore Vol. 1.
The tape custom is fully equipped with collective images in the spirit of its time. Two sides come together: day and night, light and twilight. The rhythmic in-depth intro sets the pace with a touch of space disco, which is periodically warmed up by retrospective Indian chants.

A more dense continuation falls into the rut of modernity with airy synthesizer additives. As soon as the first side crosses the equator, acid projections mixed with Italian classics and a little whimsical freshness of new disco immediately begin to sound with bright inclusions.
The clever alternate combination of the same elements with the addition of high energy switches to the B side, demonstrating a bold modern look at production. Next, a color of intensity appears with a hint of Depeche Mod and Sovietwave, giving way to trance non-trivial indie dance, and then again going into the mysterious haze of acidity.

It's time for everyone to get their hands on a copy — the collection is already on the shelves!

PREMIERE: Moonoton — Supersheriff (Spazio, 2023)

Artist: Various Artists
Title: Cyberpunk
Label: Cupula Recordings
Cat No: CUPULA002
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist: 

A1. Hypnofriends - Frobiq
A2. Saverio Celestri - Planet Terror
A3. Innershades - The Reason
B1. Adria & Pau Roses - Combat Mortal
B2. Vince Void - Rush

Cupula Recordings continues its stellar run by showcasing international artists and including local talents in their newest five-artist VA. Expect high energy as well as psychedelic and elevated analog jams.

It begins with ‘Frobiq’ a hypnotic sequenced earthquake followed by ‘Planet Terror’ an industrial infectious jam. ‘The Reason’ slows things down with an emotional deep breakbeat decorated with the belgian sound. On the flip side Catalan producers and owners of the label come up with ‘Combat Mortal’ an infernal acid spell.

Vince Void closes down with ‘Rush’ a turbocharged acid house track that serves as a true weapon for the club.

Rafiki’s debut EP release The Source takes three decades of UK rave heritage — hardcore, breaks, house, garage and bass music — and throws it into the pot with the producer’s own Indian heritage, then gives it a healthy stir. Rafiki is the alter ego of Sohail Arora — a pioneering figure in the Indian music industry, who significantly shapes club culture as the founder of Krunk and Krunk Kulture.

WLTD007 Rafiki - The Source EP

@syzuk self-released his Mindforms mini-LP in 2020, stepping away from the dancefloor to explore an expansive sonic world, ‘balancing the tranquility of the ecological world with the immediacy of the digital one'.

The original release was accompanied by a highly limited run of just 10 dubplates. Deeming this 6-tracker too good not to receive a proper pressing, Control Freak are proud to present the first ever complete vinyl run for Mindforms:
controlfreakrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/mindforms

Alongside the record, Syz & Control Freak have curated Clubforms, a collection of remixes from some of our favourite producers, each bringing the original release firmly onto the dancefloor with their own production flourishes.

@henry-greenleaf & @daisymoon take a decidedly Bristolian approach, delivering a pair of scorching hot, bass-driven club stompers. Meanwhile, @tammohesselink brings deep, European techno flavours to the slate, whilst @keplrr twists ‘Essence’ into a deep, loopy and meandering afterparty favourite. Finally, Syz reworks ‘1E’ in his own inimitable style for his ‘2Es VIP’ - rounding off one of the finest collections of club tracks we’ve ever had the pleasure to present on Control Freak.

For shops wanting to stock, send an email with your order to: info@carpetdistribution.com

Welt Discos' latest delivery is the debut solo record from DJ/producer/radio host Stephen Howe. The Mimesis EP gives us a convincing introduction to his highly musical sound: spontaneous yet tightly arranged, referential yet idiosyncratic, and not afraid to take the odd left turn. From 80s electro dynamism to loopy techno deepness to broken introspection, this is a diverse and surprising set of dancefloor grooves brought together by Stephen's knack for harmony, counterpoint and tone.

Stephen Howe first emerged via his festival-ready SH refixes of Ojerime and Oklou, the latter of which got played on Radio 1's Essential Mix. He has also appeared on Rhythm Section's SHOUTS 2022 compilation with the track 'Flow State', and on Peach Discs' Peach Pals Vol. 3 with 'Body Heat'. He hosts a bi-monthly radio show  on Refuge Worldwide named after his beloved SH-101.

- About Safar Collective

Safar Collective - a multidisciplinary art community, est. 2021 - was formed on the idea of exploration through experimentation. Our shared love for leftfield and esoteric guided us through 3 closed group experiments in the past that culminated in our prior compilations.

With the release of this VA, we are transitioning into a left-field label with the vision of building an ecosystem that nurtures leftfield artists and showcases unconventional art.

- Perceptions I

'Perceptions I' journeys across different realms from drum and bass to broken beats through glitch-hop while continually inhabiting a progressive space that breathes novelty and inventiveness. Each composition feels alive, supple, and evolving.

We invite the listeners for a deep dive into the VA to unravel the ineffable and experience the raw emotions firsthand.

- Safar and friends

Alongside artists from within Safar, 'Perceptions I' includes notable artists from the Indian underground, from the likes of I7HVN, Watashi, Rafiki, Audio Units, Flux Vortex, and Shantam. We hope to carve our sweet niche with them in the Indian underground.

Join one of India’s electronic music leading lights Rafiki as he takes you on a sonic tour of his Mumbai home, Anand Mahal (Happy Palace), released 31st May on Permanent Vacation.

Nestled in the heart of Bandra’s vibrant chaos, Anand Mahal stands as Rafiki’s serene haven—an oasis of calm. This cherished space is where his latest EP was born, a testament to unforgettable musical connections. The echoes of jams, after-hours sessions, and the laughter of friends fill its rooms, creating a mosaic of memories with both global and local artists. These are friends and fellow creatives, drawn to Mumbai by the events organised by Rafiki’s decade and a half-old agency, Krunk, and its offshoot label, Krunk Kulture.

Smoke & Mirrors, the fourth track, transports you into Rafiki’s musical den which is surrounded by a haze of smoke and mirrors. Relax on a cushion or the couch while playful & trippy melodies encircle you. This sound sanctuary fosters an atmosphere of creativity and collaboration, where each note is fuelled by the dance of melodies amidst shimmering reflections. Rafiki shares, “My Music Den is filled with beautiful music & memories, sparking endless creativity and profound self-reflection.”
