Malleable have been deep in the lab coding a homebrew multiplayer midi sequencer to use at the heart of their improvised live shows. Through this process of experimentation while developing their live act the two brothers have put together an EP running the gamut of dreamy after-hour vibes to synthy house-cuts featuring remixes from Johannes Klingebiel (some record label names) and claptrap label-boss Vanity Project.

Throughout Lockdown Malleable have used their monthly shows on Threads Radio to give a platform to artists they work and play with, and have been working with Lighting Technician Rob Lovelites to create live sets with generative light shows.

Tracklist

A1: “Fits in the Lift” - opens the EP with a dreamy pads and sunkissed e-piano soundscape building to a pumping and wobbly synth reminiscent of wavy sunset beach parties.

A2: “Fits in the Lift” (Johannes Klingebiel Remix) - Klingebiel puts a thoughtful, building slant on “Fits in the Lift” as he takes it to new heights with euphoric house piano stabs.

B1: “Zaken Doen” - Featuring SF based harpist Lucinda Belle, this malleable collaboration has a pensive afterhour sound with rising ambience leading down a glitchy rabbit hole of cutup harp, broken chimes and percussive bass.

B2 “Zaken Doen” (Vanity Project Remix) - Label Boss Vanity Project brings a signature Claptrap sound to his take on Zaken Doen. Getting down to business with a Eurobass chord progression and a dance floor moving stomp

Malleable - Zaken Doen (Vanity Project Remix)

From the cosmos of Stretford on the outer realms of Manchester comes the kaleidoscope view of the world according to Psychederek and it's an explosive trip of shoe gaze soaked balearica on this super limited vinyl release!

Lead track Screamadereka heads straight into orbit from the get go with a stop off to thank the likes of The Cocteau Twins & Death In Vegas for their influence along the way. Huge drums, spaced out synths, warped guitars & a fully charged love in style vocal all wrapped up in a mushroom flavoured microdot with a pretty empowering finale.

I'm Alright steps up the ante a bit more and goes all Tomorrow Never Knows on us but with added warehouse acid squelch & rasps throbbing out from a beat that is broken (but not break beat!) whilst still retaining the psychedelic tendencies of its predecessor.  

Sean Johnston steps off the ALFOS rocket ship and joins forces with Duncan Gray for their Hardway Bros Meet Monkton Disco Dub take of Screamadereka and the result is a hive of cosmic mutant disco brilliance whilst Manchester's finest 6 piece See Thru Hands turn I'm Alright into bombastic focused UKG style wig out duet complete with new vocal takes by DNCN for seriously wonky floors & like minded souls.

For the digital release there is also an extra helping from Hardway Bros & Monkton where they ramp up the wonk factor & go even more horizontal than the original!

Limited vinyl release comes with an incredible exclusive insert drawn by Manchester local artist Emma Evans and features a visual interpretation of the Space Arcade E.P.

Screamadereka (Hardway Bros Meet Monkton Downtown)

5. Psychederek - Screamadereka (Hardway Bros Meet Monkton Downtown)

1984 : In the studio of the small Italian town of Cremona, some of the famous but early representatives of a not-yet-named- music style called Italo Disco get together to record a song.

Among them are the most active and influential singers, producers and arrangers of this musical movement from Cesare Pasquali to Jimmy Mc Foy including Ottavio Bacciocchi.

Most importantly, two friends, Larry Pignagnoli and the famous Ivana Spagna, were writing a song together. It has been unnoticed so far, but always had the power and stamina to make the dead dance. Pardonnez-nous, but here it is!

PREMIERE⚡Stelee Up - Waiting For You (Instrumental) [Pardonnez-nous]

Melting Pot (@meltingpot_nw) is a dj/producer from Nantes, France. He is inspired by new wave, new beat, EBM & techno and is part of Superboom Records (@superboomrecords).

His main influence is the Macadam club and their androgyne's collective in Nantes. In "Give up to love" the character wants to win back his ex-girlfriend. He finds himself in a club. The sound reflects the dark and warm atmosphere.

diskJokke - A Little TnT/90s
Label:  Badabing Diskos 
https://soundcloud.com/diskjokke

Oslo label badabing diskos kicks off with a massive dance floor treat from legendary Norwegian producer diskJokke.

Known since 2008 for his international escapades with Prins Thomas's Full Pupp and the Smalltown Supersounds label, diskJokke has also played everywhere from Panoramabar Berlin to Space Ibiza and Liquid Room Tokyo. He has put out three superb long players, remixed indie acts such as Metronomy and The XX and now, after acquiring his Masters in Mathematics, he is back. He has a complex, weird and wonderful take on melodic and cinematic sounds, as proven by this terrific two-tracker.

Opener 'A Little TnT' wastes no time in locking you in on a wave of retro-future synth work while a squelchy bassline twists and turns below. It's an expansive and widescreen sound packed with the sort of melody that makes Scandi-disco so appealing.

The fantastic '90s' then takes you on a magical trip to the edge of the cosmos, with enchanting synth lines and buoyant drums all building to a crescendo. The mood then flips to acid-tinged disco house with warped lines and late-night menace, making for a truly adventurous track.

This is a terrific first EP from what is sure to be an essential new label.

PREMIERE : DiskJokke - A Little TnT

Magari, the new alias from PBR Streetgang’s Bonar Bradberry, joins Midnight People with The Rivazzurra EP. A selection of three stunning originals, filled with shimmering synths, Italo grooves and subtle vocals, taking us on a feel good journey through disco into house. Semi-delicious boss Demi Riquísimo serves up a tasty remix, as he sprinkles his signature sound to create a peak time hitter to move any dance floor.

PREMIERE : Magari - RISO

One of the most important traits at Quixotical Records is uniqueness, music that stands out. No exception is the latest release "Pilots Lounge" by Nickelson who perfectly fulfills the vision of how it should sound. Two original tracks "Negative Energy" and "Pilots Lounge" with two remixes by the founder of Cowbell Radio - Ed Mahon and head of In Dark We Trust - Berny, make this release an absolute banger for the dark disco dance floor.

Bold and brave attempt, tries to be more than the primary source. Intimidation and projection of self-reliance are the main means of propulsion. Not as exquisite as the original, very mature in a sense of presenting what it is. This is one of those situations, where the so-called copy of an original work, is attempting to step over the bounds and propose, that it's a higher-caliber, more polished piece of art. Distancing is a unique quality of this remix, and it can be a perfect governor, but so as the roots. I believe, both of those things were well balanced and the result is as pleasing as it can be.
