Poppet is the bold alter-ego of California-raised musician Molly Raney. Before Poppet's genesis in 2008, Raney spent many years training in a wide variety of musical fields from western classical to jazz to choral to Hindustani (Northern Indian classical tradition) to Gamelan (Indonesian classical ensemble music). She also has an extensive background in music theory, music history, and ethnomusicology, from both her childhood lessons and her education at the University of California in Davis. Through high school and her time at UC Davis, she studied with vocal coach Dr. Rebecca Plack of the San Francisco Conservatory-a major influence on her vocal style and elasticity. This broad musical background, plus her involvement with community freeform radio station KDVS, accounts for Poppet's own sonic diversity.

On the flip, mystery man G. Markus follows up recent outings on Sneaky Music and Soul Clap Records' edit giveaway series with the dusty soul stomp of 'Old Mutha' and rolling groove of 'Poussez-Poulet'

The boys of Mappey again achieved to compose a very picturesque sound telling the story of Mr. Miyagi's wisdoms.
A technical and yet precise fighting scenario between Miyagi and a Muk Yan Jong (wooden dummy) opens up this track using a warm wooden percussions and a solid human kick. The depth of this intense karate training sessions is perfectly reflected with a well handled reverb.

I totally love how the fighting scenes building up in their intensity, created through the musical instruments, reassembling Miyagi and his enemies.
In which the old master is resembled as the melodic and soft flying sounds with instruments such as a Sitar. Where as his enemies audibly appear as huge and forceful giants using bone breaking synths with heavy drives.

Possibly this is just my very own interpretation, so let yourself being carried away by this very cinematic tune.

For their next EP, Moon Harbour welcome back Daniel Stefanik - an artist who has been a core part of the family since 2005.

Stefanik is known as a master of intricate grooves, subtle sound design and compelling cuts that really get under your skin. He has put out four albums and countless EPs on labels such as Cocoon and Raum, and also co-runs the Dambala Experience label.

As well as serving up one vinyl exclusive, this EP features a fully licensed cover-version of Hardrive's classic 'Deep Inside,' which originally started as an edit Daniel made last year, but has since found its way into some key DJ sets and become quite in demand.

That track, still called 'Deep Inside', is a fantastically writhing monster with kicking drums, bounce in its bones and anthemic appeal in the classic cut-up vocal cries. Driving but party-starting, it is a surefire way to ignite any dance floor and it only grows more unhinged as it unfolds.

The excellent and vinyl only exclusive 'Another Year' is more stripped back but just as loose and fluid. Constructed from layers of vocal yelps, tumbling percussion and loopy sub bass, it all adds up to a supple yet wild jam that makes you want to cut some fancy shapes.

This is an easy to love EP that features two essential dance floor bombs.

Since Maxime Dangles' contribution to our head honcho Gregor Tresher's 'Breaking New Soil Vol. 7' early 2015 we received several fantastic new oevres from the frenchman. It wasn't easy to decide which ones to release but Sian (Octopus Records) gave us a hand and focussed on 'Fokal' for his remix! Anyway we are proud to release Maxime's debut EP for Break New Soil and are curious how you share our taste.

Raw District is Massimo DaCosta and Vernon Bara, a Belgian duo now making their debut on Moon Harbour with two fine original tracks and a remix by Italian Davide Squillace, who has a long and storied history of DJing and producing with label boss Matthias Tanzmann.

Raw District have been building momentum for the last couple of years with releases on Crosstown Rebels and Defected, and now come into their own on Moon Harbour. The pair who also run Homecoming Music previously released under a different name, but this new project focuses on darker club sounds that are truly compelling.

'Underrated' features disco soul vocalist Forrest, who delivers some attitude riddled rhymes in libidinous fashion as hypnotic synth stabs and rolling rubber drums drive on below. It is the sort of essential groove that will make whole 'floors march as one and is perfectly steamy and emotive.

David Squillace is known for his essential extended DJ sets at Circo Loco as well as current AV project Blender, plus his collaborative project Better Lost Than Stupid with Martin Buttrich and Matthias Tanzmann. His remix breaks up the beats into a more tumultuous and shadowy groove that is weird and freaky, with whispered vocals sounding all paranoid. Prying bass sucks you in and clever filters make it a dynamic and ever evolving affair that never lets up.

Raw District then come correct with the invitingly jittery 'Their Eyes', a smooth, deep rolling groove that evolves through a number of subtle peaks and troughs. Tumbling toms and sweeping filters bring the sort of drama that dancers love, and when it kicks again you can almost hear their whoops of joy.

This is a fresh sound from Moon Harbour and a fine debut on the label from Raw District.
