Following their much loved NTS radio shows and parties of the same name, re:ni and Laksa have announced a brand new label - RE:LAX.

On ‘Body Score’ Laksa continues to traverse the same 150bpm territory as his releases for Hessle Audio and Timedance, but here we also find influences from his job as a social worker.

Early support from the likes of Pearson Sound, Zenker Brothers, Darwin and Om Unit.

Ma Sha - Beat Goez Off [Kindergarten]

“Anclaje” es el tercer trabajo en solitario del productor y dj valenciano norim. Sus dos cortes se sitúan entre la pertenencia y el extrañamiento, sirviendo como medio para conectar con el cuerpo y abandonar el plano racional.

Es por ello que, tanto “Cruzado” como “Tendido”, simbolizan un oasis suburbano en medio de bloques de cemento y asfalto: compacto y sin embargo liviano. Pensados desde y para el soundsystem; constituyen dos herramientas fundamentales para lxs amantes del Dub/Bass y las líneas de bajo densas y cadenciosas.

“Cruzado” es el inicio de un descenso forzado a la corporalidad. Acompañado de unos toques sutiles de instrumentación etérea y sirenas, los drums espaciados se entremezclan con un bajo potente que no necesita competir para ganarse el puesto de protagonista principal.

“Tendido” nos mete de lleno en un ritmo poderosamente sincopado, atravesando valles y pendientes sin dejarnos más alternativa que la de “bailar bajito”, aproximadamente a la altura del subgrave que apunta directamente a las entrañas.

“Anclaje” is the third solo release from Valencian producer and DJ norim, composed of two cuts situated somewhere between pulls of belonging and the pushes of estrangement where the rational mind can be left behind.

Symbolising something of a suburban oasis amidst a jungle of concrete and asphalt, “Cruzado'' and “Tendido” are compact yet light pockets of sound. These essential tools for lovers of the intersection between Dub and Bass are packed with pressurised basslines and rhythms made with a soundsystem in mind.

Corporeal opening track “Cruzado” begins and forces us to descend into our bodies as touches of ethereal instrumentals and sirens move us through spaced-out drums and a powerful bassline that takes the lead in the composition.

Visceral cut “Tendido” then immerses us in a powerfully syncopated rhythm, traversing peaks and troughs of sound that leave our dancing bodies no choice but to sink down to a level approximately at the height of a subwoofer.

noRecall - Kinda Squishy [OMM011]

@norecall
@mirin_doja
@jasoncode

@3phaz

Just in time for the season of air-so-thick-you-could-cut-it-with-a-knife, Ommaya co-founder noRecall is back with an icey haul of season-ready tracks. His third EP on the label - dubbed 'Kinda Squishy' - focuses all of his efforts on what he knows best - otherworldly sound-system music. The four original tracks - 'Blah,' 'Fake a Smile,' 'Squish,' and 'Look Man' - are classic noRecall, worming their way into your mind and feet.

Supporting him are four of contemporary club music's most provocative purveyors, all hawking their brand of high-octane, unrelenting styles for the dance floor.

Mirin Doja, a fellow Seattleite and celebrated high-bpm academic, making appearances on labels like Juke Bounce Werk and Delusional Records, takes the track 'Look Man' and gives it her gun-finger treatment, flipping it into a heaving UKG slammer.

The similarly Seattle-based Jason Code (a Terminal 8 alumni and co-head of Seattle's rising club night Data Club - a who's who of IYKYK dance music energy helping to revitalize the city's scene,) lends his signature Jason Codification to 'Squish,' imbibing it with the energy of a grinning, toothy, ear-to-ear grin.

CDMX's own Octoptic - co-founder of WavaWava - returns to Ommaya after his fan-favorite contribution to Ommaya's Solstice compilation in December 2023, bringing along a non-stop, high-energy rendition of 'Look Man' with enough momentum to break through peak-time in a packed room.

Last but not least, Egyptian club music wizard 3Phaz - fresh off a year of features on labels like TraTraTrax, YUKU, and Low Income $quad - graces the label with his flip of 'Fake a Smile' - upping the pace by more than a few notches and turning it into a chugging, metallic heater sure to find its way onto plenty of USBs this Summer.

Can you see the air?
Can you taste the air?
Can you touch the air?

We're excited to release our fifth V/A, an 11-track V/A called TRANSAERE on 11th October, melding bass, breaks, techno, global sounds and lots more.

The V/A features music from worldwide talents including carin kelly, Dj Spit, Bluetoof, De Grandi, and DARK BUDA, amongst others. Each artist brings their unique perspective, contributing to a diverse and forward-thinking collection of tracks.

The concept of TRANSAERE is deeply rooted in the theme of Air, delving into the unseen yet powerful qualities of this essential natural element. The project invites listeners to explore the hidden virtues of Air, emphasizing its profound impact despite its invisibility.
Through this thematic exploration, TRANSAERE aims to capture the essence of Air's subtle yet undeniable force, offering an immersive listening experience that transcends genres and borders.

"Butterflies can fly at 3000 meters above sea level and use air currents to travel long distances. But on a less cute note, we've also reached a point where there is so much plastic in that air that we actually inhale nano plastics every day, which sticks in our lungs from our clothes."

Tracklist: 

carin kelly - Eddies
Dj Spit - Heavy Breathing view
Bluetoof - Dashit.
HEDDA & Jcow - AIAIAI 
Dual Monitor - Pull It Up (Dual Monitor's Exosphere Dub) 
DARK BUDA - Onira 
De Grandi - Hevea 
LU2K - Ez Tool 2 
Yas Reven - Puff Of Fun 
Cardozo - Suada 
K-OH - Filhos do Maligno

PREMIERE: De Grandi - Hevea [Nehza Records]

Noise Pollution Recordings is pleased to present the new release of R-010, the project of Madrid-based producer Lucas Rojo, whose unmistakable style of electronic dance music is making its way into the national and international electronic music scene. R-010 fuses serious and raw sounds with evocative atmospheres and aggressive percussions, resulting in tracks full of feeling and rhythm.
On this occasion, the EP Palo Cortado arrives just in time showing a more fun and funky side. With four original songs that faithfully maintain their raw and rhythmic stamp, this work is enriched with three remixes made by ellian (@ellian____), Brenda (@brend4_internacional) and Amor Satyr (@ amorsatyr), who bring new nuances and perspectives to the sound proposal from Spain, Colombia and France.
In addition, the album explores territories unexplored until now for R-010, venturing into genres such as break core, dub and Latin club. This game of rhythmic and sonic experimentation redefines his style, offering a renewed and playful experience that invites you to move and get carried away on the dance floor.
With Palo Cortado, R-010 reaffirms his commitment to innovation and passion for electronic music, taking the listener on a vibrant and energetic journey.

KeepKeep - Latin Oldham

In The Night is the first collaboration between Australian Music Producer Trill & Vocalist miikahchuu. The chemistry & synchronicity was like gin and juice, much like the song which feels like a throwback to a house party in the early 90s.
