Damian Lazarus invites Meera to Rebellion as she makes her debut on the label with the release  her two-track EP, ‘Telefon’.  

Influenced by producers with unorthodox approaches such as Burial and J Dilla, blossoming Norwegian DJ/ producer Meera may be young in her career, but she is already capturing the attention of some of the scene’s  biggest names. Following the release of her debut single ‘Music For Humans’, supported by both Black Coffee and  Damian Lazarus, who she recently joined at Hï in Ibiza at the start of August, she now heads to Crosstown Rebels’  sister imprint Rebellion for the very first time as she unveils two fresh productions across ‘Telefon’. 

“‘Telefon’ started as me procrastinating on another track, but grew into its own thing throughout the day  and was a finished track by the second day. The entire process is kind of a blur, everything just came  together. ‘Slowdown’ was my first attempt at using my own vocals on a track, as well as something more  melodic and dreamy rather than a ‘club banger’. The track was very inspired by the vibe of a certain  Burning Man set.” - Meera. 

Armed with brooding basslines beneath sweeping synths and rumbling percussion, ‘Telefon’ balances  commanding core elements with sprinklings of light, hazy and wistful melodies for a hypnotic cut loaded with  suspense and energy - all while stuttered vocals exploring the frustrations of being disconnected to others ebb  and flow amongst the mix. In contrast, ‘Slowdown’ is more off-kilter initially, with Meera’s own vocals again guiding  the scattered bass hits before slowly transitioning into a resonant production guided by airy, emotive keys and  bright leads.

The Scenarios label keeps up its recent momentum with another sublime EP from label co-founders Maga and Tim Engelhardt.

Scenarios, which is co-run by these artists alongside Emanuel Satie and Sean Doron, has become a standout in the melodic world known for its meticulous synth craft and truly moving grooves. Between them, this collective, which also hosts events under the same banner, has now put out nine EPs since launching only back in April 2022 and each time they explore fresh new ground while staying true to their signature sound. The tracks are always potent emotionally and moving rhythmically and this brilliant new brace proves that once more.

The opener 'Lev' is a deep and enchanting house cut from the off. There is a sense of drama in the drums and claps which thunder across the groove as the nimble bassline leads you late into the night. Once the warm, smeared chords arrive there is a captivating sense of soul to this most sophisticated sound. 'Reiki' is another stylish and emotional house affair with bubbling drums carrying you along beneath melancholic chords and twirling keys. As the groove ebbs and flows, intimate vocal whispers arrive and lock you further into a meditative state.

As always, this is another stylish and immersive offering from the forward-thinking Scenarios crew.

For its last release of 2023, When We Dip XYZ is proud to present a three track remix pack of Motip White’s ‘Clean the Turbines’ EP. 

Kicking things off is Atish, chopping and pitching Motip White’s vocal from ‘What Do You Want Me to Say.’ The Manjumasi label-boss complements the track with a rolling bassline, glitches hitting left, right, and centre, and the gritty bass fills from the original. 
 
Also taking on ‘What Do You Want Me to Say,’ Gespona & Djolee craft huge percussion rolls and manipulate White’s layers and textures. The two artists, who have just launched their own label ‘Rummel,’ leave room for the memorable hook halfway through, which then recedes in favour of the heavy drums. 

Third up is Meera with her take on ‘Clean the Turbines.’ Faithful to her style, which has recently been showcased on VOD and Crosstown Rebels, she opposes a subby kick with a tempest of hats & shakers, harmonically guided by a light piano. The Norwegian producer keeps on building the energy, surprisingly introducing her own vocals and an acid layer on the arp as the tune unfolds.
