W133 starts the year with a brand new release by Ulm’s producer Kid Kun. He delivers four hard-hitting techno/bass hybrids complemented by a remix from No Sir, who returns to the label after an appearance on W133001.

"Gaslight," the title-giving track of the EP, immediately sets the tone for the release. Dark atmospheres and sci-fi pads decorate the driving broken baseline and kick. After that, "Hypersonic," with a similar vibe but slightly more chill energy, grooves its way into your ears. In the third position, we find the dancefloor smasher "Send Your Stuff Into A Modular System And Smile." It bursts with energy and pushes you forward with a distorted bass, hidden voices, and breaky drum patterns and will definitely make you smile. The last original track of the EP is "Inflict," another dark sub-frequency roller, this time with long melodic bassy pads and a spooky touch.  On remix duties, No Sir delivers a playful interpretation of "Hypersonic," giving it some arpy high acid sounds with tripped-out rhythms!

The EP is available as a digital download, or can be ordered with a printed and signed artwork in A4 size. The photography for the artwork is by Freya Gerz.

Transforming Matter

I'm running back to me feeling homesick
soon I might recall the savory flavor
of what will ease me until I'm mellow
I move so the floor beneath me transforms into a flow
does it really matter if I'm loved beloved unloved
if I submerged deep in dirt and died slow
-li al

We breathe in oxygen, transform it into carbon dioxide and breathe out. One simple witness of transforming matter. With this album I became aware of this inevitable movement and my deeply rooted need to live that. So I could not restrict myself any longer not to surrender to it, to the creative flow.
Very new and important to me was to collaborate with such immensely talented artists. It has elevated and transformed my production skills & process. I feel very honored to connect, learn and transform matter - together.

Different Intel returns with 4 dark and dynamic club tracks by @mercysystem. ‘Dials’ delves into a grittier and more aggressive rendition of his sound, carefully blurring the lines between techno, broken beats and dubstep through innovative production techniques, whilst preserving his distinctive intricate and textured style. Despite the exploration of diverse influences, the release doesn't shy away from the allure of the original dubstep sound, seamlessly integrating its essence to serve its purpose within a club environment. Amidst its pulsating intensity and overall grimness, this excursion remains a poignant tribute to the post-industrial ambiance of Greater Manchester.

'Glory Days' by
@alanjohnsonmusic
Is out now: https://airjohnson.bandcamp.com/album/glory-days

"The ‘Glory Days’ EP marks a new chapter in the Alan Johnson output. Following sporadic releases throughout the last decade owing to a separation across different continents for both of us, we take a step forward from last year's Stillness EP - with an EP that constitutes our first release of entirely new music, since our first record back in 2013.

We have a propensity to work and sit on music for long periods of time which has previously produced complex and challenging outcomes but the last 2 years has seen a growth in our abilities to focus on refinement in our creation process, and an attempt to tell a story through more simplistic means.

The record was assembled with a vision and purpose over the last 18 months for the YUKU label specifically. It represents a shift in our existing sound, consistent through our past outputs which can be identified on some of the tracks across the record, and delivers us to a place which is influenced by a wider variety of experimentation, centred around more danceable outcomes and an air of glossy playfulness. The EP is split into two easily identifiable moods, representing a nod to a sometimes chaotic and pastiched past and a suggestive view of where the future may lie.

It's been an honour to work on an EP for the infinitely attentive and carefully crafted series of records curated by Jef and Ilda at YUKU, along with our friends at dsplaced who helped create the visual aspects of the release with us. This record is for everyone."

DOCTOR JEEP - DEEP RED EP
Worst Behavior, 2024

[Premiere] Doctor Jeep & Hedchef - I'm Rushing (out on Worst Behavior)

Get it here: https://yukumusic.bandcamp.com/album/old-haunts

"When conceptual art really kicked off in the mid twentieth century, many of its protagonists were so determined to purge art of its decorative frilliness, they turned more and more towards words, or rather, lack thereof. The likes of Duchamp, Dalí, Breton, Reinhardt, each uncensored by the rational mind, made moves towards the absurd and the sublime, with varying degrees of success and failure alike.

In this piece, what one finds is the artist attempting to convey a number of things, and asking a number of questions of us as the listener; what do we seek in such art? In which ways are to be intellectually, spiritually and sexually fulfilled by its visceral and confrontational abandonment of conventions? Is it incongruous juxtaposition? Does it lead us as the audience to question ourselves as living breathing beings, our hopes and truths, and our benign tastes so often dictating our choice and free will?

The piece is a natural extension of surrealism, dadaism and indulgence, themselves often strange bedfellows. Elaborate and provocative in its execution, displaying a signature of insatiable curiosity, and leaving no stone unturned, it portrays the artist as a provocateur of postmodernism, mysticism, and decadence. It transgresses the elusive world of the subconscious more imaginatively than previous offerings. It's also a piece which stitches together the scraps of art and culture, politics and poetry, and science and exotica that could often be found in the Southport of the late-noughties and beyond. An extremely clever conceit; there could be any manner of things concealed within this record, but we as the listener will never know because as as soon as one opens the record, the art is destroyed, the value is lost, so we will never, ever find out.

One's most overriding sensation is that the piece feels like a shit-filled hand grenade which the artist has flung into our collective psyche. It is quite simply, a joke, and a very poor joke."

Premiere "Vague" by Kapha taken from "Disposal Ashore" EP out on 18th April via JUDDER

Pre-order: https://judderlabel.bandcamp.com/album/disposal-ashore-jr001

JUDDER proudly presents the first release in the series of singles and EPs — a "Disposal Ashore" EP by Kapha. Drawing inspirations from UK Bass, both early 2000s and contemporary dubstep, as well as other cutting edge experimental sonics, Kapha enigmatically yet deftly blends rhythms and vibes in this four-tracker. His minimalistic approach to arrangement allows to concentrate on the deep groove and atmospherics, while leaving plenty of space for the core elements, which greatly showcases his distinctive take on music production.
