Laklouk Session

Following the release of ‘Watergate 15 mixed by Kerri Chandler’, Watergate Records offer up a vinyl sampler, featuring the exclusive new material on the comp from the man himself, and remixes from Voyeur, La Fleur and Lola Purple & Maine.

Kerri Chandler has been one of the most prominent names in electronic music for over three decades now, so it was no surprise to see him enlisted for the reputable Watergate compilation series this year, following mixes from the likes of Sebo K, Ellen Alien, Tiefschwarz and Solomun. Here the imprint drops a vinyl sampler of fresh Chandler material made for the compilation, with some stellar remixes from some rising artists thrown in for good measure.

First up is ‘Mama feat. Jerome Sydenham’, which takes on a classic Kerri format of swinging rhythms, a cosseting chord sequence, jazz-tinged low-end and piano lines, and Sydenham’s spoken word vocal stylings. ‘Think Of Something’ follows, upping the energy slightly with a gritty saw-wave bass hook, stabbing pad samples and an amalgamation of chopped and processed vocal snippets.

Kerri’s protégés Voyeur step up on the first of the remixes, reworking ‘Mama’ into a groove-led number, fuelled by bulbous subs, loose percussion and an ever-evolving dynamism achieved through multilayered melodies. Rising star La Fleur turns in an interpretation of ‘Mama’ next, the Swedish producer tips the focus towards raw drums and penetrating bass, while smooth melodies brilliantly meander around them, creating a classy dance-floor focused workout. Then last up to round off the package is Manchester duo Lola Purple & Maine’s remix of ‘Think Of Something’, the pair deliver an intriguing remix very much unique to them, we see processed vocal snippets, growling bass, infectious hooks and warm pads all skillfully blended to create a stunning closing record.

We’re excited to introduce @manumakesyoudance with his debut release with us, Creamfield EP.

As a resident at Stereobar and a consistent contributor to Montreal’s underground community, Manu has built a reputation with his unique projects and standout releases. Having connected musically with Mikael (Kora) through the Montreal scene some time back, this release feels like a full-circle moment.

Known for fusing an intriguing blend of sounds, Manu crafts a swift, groovy, and refreshing signature style. Creamfield EP delivers two deep house cuts with a minimal edge — Creamfield and 2010 — both hypnotic journeys that balance emotion with steady, driving grooves.

We hope these infectious rhythms transport you just as much as they did us!

It’s one of our favorite things at LAMP when we get tracks like this sent to us. From the opening bars you get the sense that there’s a really catchy groove building up. Hip shaking drum layers and crisp shoulder shaking percussive layers will draw you to the dance floor. Disco strings slowly build into the foreground as a funky guitar strums along to the beat. A sensual, irresistible vocal beckons you to join in on the fun and things really kick off after the first build up with a bouncy bass line groove to seal the deal. 

Canadian native Famba has been on a steady grind putting out some impressive tracks; remixes and originals alike. His sounds have garnered the attention of labels like Armada Deep, UMG and Swerve Digital as well as notable tastemaker channels like Bodhi Collective. With less than a year of official work coming out of this project there’s definitely a sense that something big is brewing up in Nova Scotia and that Famba’s name will be a name you’ll hear much more often in 2017.
