House Vinyl New Releases - News

Doe Dee is a new label curated by stalwart Sydney DJ / Fbi Radio Presenter Kato releasing forward thinking club music from Australia to the world. The first release sees the two personalities of Melbourne producer Fergus Sweetland splitting 2 sides of a liquorice pizza.

On the A side SWEETLAND shines with unique energetic yet emotional deep(ish) house workout with a beautiful deep dubby re-rub from Sydney's own HUBERT CLARKE JR (100% Silk / Wolf Music / OTiS)

While on the B side SUGREF takes things considerably darker with a brooding electro influenced acid trip alongside a chunky uptempo dub house workout from Sydney duo ALBA (aka Cop Envy and Sam Weston)

Artwork from Sydney Pony Club's Taylor Tinnies humorously celebrates the diversity of the Melbourne and Sydney music scenes circa 2017.

Vinyl Box-Set limited to 500 copies + includes the Compilation on CD

Vinyl Box-Set ist auf 500 Stk. limitiert + beinhaltet die Compilation im CD Format Cocoon Recordings presents - Q' - the new edition of one of the longest running techno compilation series worldwide! We do not want to start again by mentioning how unbelievable it is that we have reached letter Q already ... and we do not even want to imagine how fast we will probably arrive at XYZ, if time continues to fly like this. The actual thrilling part of this compilation series is simply the fact that Techno seems to not grow any older in this form - isn't this amazing Here, in the truest sense of the word, we have a compilation of timeless material before us. With a broad bandwidth ranging from - futuristic-deconstructive' compositions such as 'Da Dang' by Alex & Digby and 'Fragile' by Carlos Nilmmns or the many contributions to Q that fancy almost anachronistic acid and trance influences: Everything sounds fresh and forward thinking! The vocal parts and the arrangement of 'All I Can (About you)' by Baba Stiltz appear like electronic singer songwriting. The musical approach of Baba Stiltz is slightly similar to big Pepe Bradock productions and their Dada aesthetic. In contrast to this, 'Anno Domini' by Kamran Sadeghi follows the sound approach of early Maurizio / Basic Channel records and reminds us that modern techno does not always have to be impulsive and kicking, and certainly does not define itself over the most extreme 'drops

Hot Creations welcome the legendary Danny Tenaglia, as he delivers his first piece of solo produced music for more than a decade. On remix duty is one of the greatest DJs to grace the electronic music scene, Carl Cox, alongside exceptional New Jersey house producer Harry Romero. Renowned as a mainstay in the house music scene due to his extensive back catalogue and iconic parties in Miami and Ibiza, Danny Tenaglia delivers a Don’t Turn Your Back to start proceedings. A slice of tuff New York house, it’s the rustling hi hats, infectious vocal and staggered percussion that give this a typical Tenaglia feel. One of America’s finest producers Harry Romero is up next to remix. Fast-paced with a subtly changing groove, it’s the addition of a John Scarpulla’s saxophone solo that creates a fiesta feel. Working together again, Scarpulla is Diana Ross' tour saxophonist who has featured in Harry’s previous tracks including Mongobonix. Awesome Soundwave head honcho Carl Cox serves up the next remix: a dynamic, heritage sounding house cut with flecks of glitchy acid and whirling synths, before his alternative ASW remix comes through with punchy kicks and more underlying acid tones.

The DJs Pareja have been flagging they’re a DJ duo in love long before the recent trend. ‘Pareja’ literally translates as ‘couple’, and that is just how Diego and Mariano do life; in tandem. It may not seem so radical these days, but the Pareja’s have been unapologetically queer trailblazers in their hometown of Buenos Aires, Argentina - throwing raves and putting out pop dance records for decades. It took us years to get these boys to come play for us in San Francisco, but when they finally did, minutes off the plane we were hugging and shedding a little tear in front of the Castro theatre sign. I always knew that one day we would get them on the label, and this EP is a product of how far this new gay techno underground has come. So it is with great pleasure we present 4 tracks produced south of the Equator, mixed for the gods, with some signature vocals and some sounds we’ve never heard from these Argy boys sleeping in a Queen bed.

Kntrl, who splits his time between sundrenched Malta and the slightly less summery, but musically highly inspirational Berlin, present his OFF-debut.

Giving proof to the label's versatility, the EP's two originals are easily the most electronica-centered pieces on OFF so far.

Rich and lush soundscapes, tasteful songwriting and melancholic atmospheres provide for beautiful listening, both for a chilled afternoon at home or the afterparty.

Luca Agnelli, hot on the heels of celebrated releases on Soma, Drumcode or his own Etruria Beat imprint, delivers a smashing peaktime techno interpretation, reconnecting the EP to OFF's natural habitat, the club.

Leifur James released his debut album A Louder Silence in October 2018 on Late Night Tales original artist label Night Time Stories; home to Texan trio Khruangbin and the iconic Late Night Tales series. The record attracted immediate support from Pitchfork, KEXP, XLR8R, Mixmag 8/10, Future Music UK 9/10, Electronic Sound 9/10. In April 2019 ‘Wurlitzer’ was the first piece of music he revealed from a new creative period after those sessions. The video was created by animator/director Balázs Simon, premiering on Boiler Room and was nominated for the BMVA Berlin Music Video Awards in the experimental music category, airing at the British Film Insitute BFI Southbank London.

Now in September 2019 he has prepared a remix EP 12" of the debut album A Louder Silence, featuring a slew of the finest musicians in electronic music today. Blueberry Records founder FaltyDL aka Drew Lustman comes first with a deep, skipping 2-stepping reversion of Mumma Don’t Tell. Bruce coming off the back of his hugely well received debut album for Hessle Audio has a “resymph” of Osho in typical mind-bending austere electronic style. Whities producer and Tirzah/Mica Levi collaborator Coby Sey reconstructs Suns of Gold with his sampler, and also accompanying it, is Leifur’s own remix of suns of Gold.

'Celestial' is the first EP by Themisto Man, a new project from Tr One. Over four tracks, he delivers tough house and techno, underscored by seductive melodies. The sticker image is of a disused power facility somewhere in southern Ireland, which Themisto Man now uses to beam his music into the cosmos.'

The Barcelona based record store and label run by DJ Bruce Lee is very proud to release the first work from TR, a well known DJ in the Madrid underground scene.
TR was responsible for one of the remixes from the first release on the label. That remix was techno, but his tastes embrace many different styles as we can see now.
"Multi EP" is the second release on Rhythm Control Barcelona where TR, colaborates with Causmin Lizou on the keyboard for the B side tracks.
The A side contains 2 90's infuenced breaks and electro tracks titled "Bassaur" and "EAH (Part 1,2 & 3)".
The B side contains 2 Detroit influenced house tracks, "Fingers De Pollo" and "Gitroit Highlights".

A producer worth following without a doubt!

Arriving unannounced in November of last year, Nocturnal Sunshine dropped her ‘Foundation’ EP; a bold move from an artist firmly front and center, in control of her own creative destiny. Premiered by Billboard, lead track ‘Foundation’ now receives two remixes from Canadian duo, UNDERHER and Trance Wax originator Ejeca

Curating an EP with a clear B-line for the dancefloor, Nocturnal Sunshine welcomes each remixer in such a way, that we see each exercise their own creative prowess to its fullest potential. Ejeca brings uncompromising, body-shuddering kicks with the initiation of his suspense-filled and in places, harrowing rework; this one is in the locker, destined for big rooms and warehouses worldwide.

Alongside Ejeca, from across the pond, Canada’s UNDERHER hit the sweet spot with a bumping house inspired retake, laced with attitude.

Ferox brings you four of the UK and Ireland's finest on this 4 tracker.

The debut release from US label Perpetual Rhythms comes in the shape of an EP of collaborations and single drops entitled Secret Elements. Firecracker boss Linkwood provides some extra Chi-Town edge to the sombre melodies and science fiction synths of Specter & Chicagodeep's "Sonic Pulse" on his opening edit, whilst Chicagodeep's "Restless Nights" generates a mix of spacey, laid back vibes. The bleepy pulses of Taelue's "Social Anxiety" sounds close to what an Aphex Twin and Jerome Sydenham & Kerri Chandler house collaboration would result in, while the single rimshots and wallowing pads of "Rough Access Point" give the track a distinctly lonesome ambience.

Swoy delivers an incredile 4 track ep for Aesthetic. Early morning buisness.

Courtesy Of Balance is back right in time for kick your summer off in style by welcoming fellow French producer Gunnter, owner of Normandy Records. All three tracks have got that classic quality to them that'll please those deep and tech house afficionados. Naturally influenced by the golden age of the late 90's uk sound, Gunnter has digested it down to three to-the-point weapons, all endowed with the 3 sacred elements of proper tech house : jacking beats, wonky basslines and deep chords. The proof's in the pudding... drop the needle on the rekkid !

Christian Engh is a character left out of the Lords Of Chaos movie.
They were the kids hanging around the infamous record store of Euronymous.

He wore black before it became techno...

Gianluca Rattalino with his first vinyl release wants to present the freshness and elegance that his sound represents. A record to be enjoyed and listened to each detail in order to understand how all tracks communicate. To complete this cut there is also a remix, very dark in every detail and that complies with the conception of the vinyl meaning. The remix is signed by the producer Background (Little Helpers / Baile Musik / Monique Musique).

Helmed by Cristiano Cellu and Simone M, Be Apart is an emerging Italian label with a penchant the more discerning side of house and techno. Based in Florence, the imprint kicked off only recently courtesy of an an auspicious V/A that saw the aforementioned label heads featured alongside the likes of Nadia Popoff, Marko Nastic and Peter Makto & Gregor S. For their latest installment, Cellu and Simone M team up once more on the electrifying sounds of the Phaconto EP.
A boisterous cut of peak-time techno, the title track is an evocative track that's without doubt been made with the night's most passionate moments in mind. Although it starts off on a relatively innocuous tip, it soon morphs into a baseline-led banger, the likes of which is yearning to be played on a vast soundsystem. A surefire call for dancefloor destruction, 'Phaconto' offers a fitting insight into two producers who clearly have a clear understanding in the studio.
On the flip side of the vinyl-only release is Federico Grazzini's remix. Ibiza regulars will be all too aware of Grazzini's talents, and aside from being a resident at Zoo, he's also a resident at Florence's best known nightspot, Tenax. Grazzini keeps the original's eerie vibe intact on his interpretation, but adds some clever drums and a heightened sense of suspense that elevates it to further levels still. Be Apart's latest release sure ain't subtle - but that my friend, is exactly the point. If you're after something that's sure to move the floor this weather, then look no further.

After a short hiatus, the mysterious TZU series continues! TZU04 once again provides 4 tried and tested club cuts! Looking to follow in the footsteps of its predecessors this record is set to fly off the shelves and onto the dance floor.

LumièresLaNuit is glad to welcome Istanbul-based duo Bärtaub (Mutlu San & Batuhan Güler) for the 6th release of the label. As
in most of the duos, each of the members has his speciality. Whereas Mutlu focuses primarely on the music production, Batu is
known by Istanbul's house/techno aficionados as a restless DJ.
On the A side, Entropy reveals a moveable techno feast marked by a distanced horn. On the B-side, Rhizome features a bubbly
feeling with insistent though indistinct voice-like cuts led by a determined bassline and a lifting synth melody which travels to
various undetermined directions, proposing a fair groove for unfair times. The EP concludes with Strata, an amalgam of spoken
words, synths and clear beats offering a solid and relaxing mood that leads to a satisfying exit from this groovy forest.
Bärtaub's debut EP is called Rhizome (type of plant root) not without reason. Beats, melodies and bassline jump over, crawl
under and draw apart from each other in unexpected and non-hierarchical ways. In the end, they all come together in a harmonious
manner that creates an overall of excitingly playful forest-like atmosphere.
Mutlu San is a techno producer & DJ, sound designer and soundtrack artist from Istanbul. In 2014, hw sounddesigned the movie
Watch My Soundtracks - Anarchic Harmony, which will be released as a soundtrack album on his imprint Polyfisch Musik. In 2015,
Mutlu released his Leidenfrost EP (PTR003) on Petra Digital/Vinyl that includes a remix by John Tejada.
Batuhan Güler is a well established DJ in Istanbul. As one of the guys who kickstarted Indigo Club (2004), Batu was - along with
his longtime associate Onur Özer - one of its resident DJs. He also used to play at Istanbul's finest clubs Wake Up Call as well and
Suma Beach, where he run his Hard Case Scenario partie series. Not long ago, he has begun operating as music director and
resident DJ at Istanbul's Hütte club.

Not An Animal return with their 2nd installment, this time from
'Ess O Ess' (aka Chris Stoker and Jamie Blanco). Their original offering, Cantillate, isn't an easy beast to identify, being equal parts Swamp-Rock and Techno. Imagine you've stumbled across an ephedrine and moonshine fueled rave in a deep Louisiana bayoux in the year 3000, and you're close. Add an out-there vocal refrain, and you'll start to appreciate why this is a particularly distinct record. Relocate said rave to a some kind of Space Ship hitting hyperspace, with photon torpedoes fully armed, and you'll suddenly find yourself with the first remix, as created by Ene Records owner Chida. Continuing the hybrid vibes, the final remix as provided by man of the moment "Suzanne Kraft" (yes, man), takes a juxtaposed tropical techno (with added dub) approach to his interpretation. The overall effect of all 3 mixes is a pleasingly schizophrenic release which drips with multiple personalities.

Miami's Greg Beato rolling it out on his own Ni Un Pero label. 2 tough old school machine jams on this one. Up there with the best of his LIES & Apron output and certainly club ready! Limited edition 12". SICK TIP!

Italian Techno inspiration Marco Faraone is finally back with a own release on his UNCAGE imprint after a four year solo release hiatus, he delivers another mighty offering, as expected. Next to his hard hitting new single, big remixes come from legends of the underground in Mark Broom, Efdemin and Mike Huckaby. 'Matter of Perspective' is the original single and is an urgent techno banger with heavy kick drums and wild, frazzled synth lines, industrial groans and textures add weight and darkness as this most unrelenting cut races into the night. Long time UK techno stalwart, Mark Broom then flips the track into something more stripped back and bouncy, but with a raved up energy that never lets up and keeps you on your toes. German studio wizard Efdemin then brings all his years of clever trickery to a remix which is said to be one of his last remixes for a while (so soak it up whilst you can), it is perfectly deep and hypnotic, with curious synth sounds and multi-layered keys bringing the intensity. Last of all, Detroit great Mike Huckaby layers in plenty of his trademark dub techno grit, smoky textures and catchy claps to finish off what is a standout EP on UNCAGE.

With Topping describing the EP’s title track as the “heaviest” thing he’s ever produced, ‘Dungeon Freak’ is an unrelenting slab of rave techno, with Daddy Dino’s deadpan, spoken-word vocals only adding to it’s dark aura. Similarly cold and heavy, ‘Snide’ is a chunky, metallic number that continues to build in intensity across its seven minutes. “This EP is more like the vibe of ‘Watch What Your Doing’ EP. The title track is so dark, with mad ravey synths but the bit I’m most excited about is the vocal!

“The phrase ‘the techno dungeon’ is really just a daft thing me and mates used to say years ago about when you are locked on the dancefloor and can’t leave because your so into the music. So it’s more a metaphorical place in your mind, than it is an actual dungeon or venue!”

Brooklyn based 369 Records returns with its second release, a split 12'' featuring artist Co La and Jeremy Hyman.
A side is laced with the freaky self extended edit of Co La's "Barricade". This track sculpts sound into a club ready fast pace tune sure to leave people intrigued and begging for more.
On the B side Jeremy Hyman introduces a hypnotic melody unlike many you have heard before. Building on this melody it slaps you with the clap, and beats you with the bass. Dance floor tested , this release is not your average twelve inch.
Both Co La and Jeremy Hyman have a rich discography and sick pedigree before their solo careers.Co La aka Matthew Papich played in Ecstatic Sunshine ( Carpark Records) before starting his solo project Co La (Software Records, Primary Information) , and also a key contributor to Lifted (Pan Records)
Jeremy Hyman is a rare breed. A classically trained drummer who has played for more legendary bands than one can name (Ponytail, Dan Deacon Boredoms, Animal Collective, Lifted) . He has recently started a wild independent self titled electronic solo career. He has already released tracks on Future Times Records

00:AM are back with their third Various Artists 12” in as many years featuring friends from near and far. D. Tiffany, AceMo, Flørist, and Max Wyatt step into the fold for a well rounded release fit to stay in the DJ bag. The record starts with D. Tiffany’s off-kilter ‘Butterfly Foundation’ into AceMo’s 10 miles deep ‘A Dub 2 Toronto’, onto Flørist’s peak time ode-to-jack ‘Parametric’, and closes out with Max Wyatt’s breaky & euphoric ‘Nu World’. Road tested thoroughly over the last year, 003 is a gambit of refreshing productions carefully selected by 00:AM. We hope you enjoy.

No wools, no blerts. Jus’ smoov style. We are talking about scouserin´ and swervin’. And Leeds finest Antony Beardsley in perticular. A lone gunman producing analogue, slow paced dance music influenced by pioneers like Andrew Weatherall, Richard D. James and Danny Wolfers. Sometimes all you need is some service. And that’s exactly what Höga Nord will give you with this four track EP by the name The Last Ride’. Opening title track sounds like Mr Kowalski, top dressed’ in a white track suit, speeding away for the vanishing point. The Last Ride would be the soundtrack of choice for Mr. Kowalskis Requiem for the American Dream. The organic baselines seduces you like the bright side of the illusion of that sleazy dream. A-sides second track ’We Own The Night’ will chug you all nite long. And B-sides ’Black Dog’ will make your mornings velvet with evil heat. Straight acid approach. Magic Feet Recordings, Stripped Off and Clouded Vision Records has already released him. But in Gothenburg we stay Höga and only settles for the best. We mentioned service earlier. We are also a crew. And this time we’re really doing you. All night long. Some darker morning when we’re straight - lets open up... We do dat doe dont we doe. Friendly, witty, welcoming and all. But it isn't called dirty for no reason. All love, charm and bifter - get lifted!

Late September 2019 will see the release of DJ W!LD Shaun Reeves' collaborative EP, "Bag of Bones" on Vision Quest Special Edition, the vinyl only arm of Visionquest.

No strangers to working together, the pair have cooked up an excellent EP for their latest outing, comprised of 4 heady, floor ready cuts. Shaun Reeves, co-head of Visionquest, is a Detroiter turned Berliner who has been at the forefront of the industry for over a decade. An instrumental part of both cities and everywhere in between he has been playing the top clubs and festivals his entire career. Reeves has released on labels ranging from Raum...musik to Wolf + Lamb and of course Visionquest, with artists like Seth Troxler and Maayan Nidam. DJ W!LD is as well a time tested veteran of the game who grew up listening to Laurent Garnier dj in his home town of Dijon, France. A life long record collector, he has played all over the world at the most prestigious clubs including Fabric, Panorama Bar and Amnesia for events ranging from Cocoon to Circoloco. DJ W!LD runs two labels, the W label and DAILYCID and has released on REKIDS offshoot, Cabin Fever, One Records, 2020 Vision and Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano's Ral series.

On the first track, "Bag of Bones", the EP starts out with a banging kick, a choppy percussion loop, floating atmospherics and a sound like a distant train or a car horn honking moments before impact. Low sub bass is complimented by a mid range bass line that drives the track forward. This leads to a subtle break down, when the track flips on it's head and jumps back in with a rising rush, a new bassline, peculiar vocal snippets and some bouncing hi hats skittering side to side.

Track two, "Taima", starts with a heavily phased sample that almost sounds like recorded room noise. Swinging percussion pops in with a punchy bass line and a mean kick that all gets thrown around by a mechanical machine sound that rips in and out with bleeps that sound like feedback from some sort of lunar device. A repeated, bleepy key loop emerges, balancing all the percussion and propels the track forward. It's hypnotic, deep and banging all at the same time.

"Chronicals of Narnia" starts with a big kick and a hat, snare/clap combo that's drenched in vinyl dirt and phase. A beautiful ambient texture pad drops in that lifts the vibe of the track without it getting bogged down or muddled by the atmospherics, only to snap back into the original tough beat with a fat pocket.

The EP finishes with "Purple Urkle", which starts with tough percussion, again doused in this amazingly overdriven phased/flanged texture. Other seemingly found sounds jolt in and out all around the audio spectrum while a distant pad rides in the background, sounding like it might be sampled from an old classical vinyl. The EP is another welcome addition to VQSE, drenched in its own grit and unique sound it's sure to please listeners and dancers from all ends of the musical spectrum.

'Eagles & Butterflies has taken storm in electronic wonderland' - Boiler Room Arpeggiator was originally titled '14 minutes of Arps' and its exactly that. Its one of the simplest tracks I'v ever made with probably only 8 layers that your weaves in and out the whole way through, really love the subtleness of this track where at the same time it is also a beast! Oyeme is maybe the E&B sound people are familiar with, big marimba melodies, fat sub and rolling hats with a big break, love this one Prophet was originally just an experiment when i purchased a prophet 6, its a little crazy and pretty full on, love the funky bass in the one from the SH 101. All the parts for this where recorded in a few takes live and two whole track was made in 2 hours!
U.K.-born, L.A.-based producer/DJ, Chris Barratt - aka - Eagles & Butterflies breaks all boundaries across the electronic music spectrum. His productions flow seamlessly through Downtempo, Techno, House and beyond, with releases on Innervisions, Bedrock, Exit Strategy, Sapiens and his own imprint Art Imitating Life. From remixing Underworld, RY X, Agoria, Moby, Andhim and Ludovico Einaudi, Eagles & Butterflies is the newest toast of the underground. His live sets have electrified stages around the world at events such as Circoloco, Awakenings, Mosaic By Maceo, Coachella, Junction 2, Lightning In A Bottle, Sacred Ground, Secret Garden Party, Tomorrowland and many more. With support from dance music heavyweights such as Dixon, Ame, DJ Tennis, John Digweed, Maceo Plex, E&B was also named one of Mixmag's Breakthrough Acts this year, was featured numerous times in DJ Magazine and was plucked for a guest mix on Pete Tong's BBC Radio show. Upcoming releases on Agoria's fresh imprint Sapiens, Art Imitating Life 003, features on Nic Fanculli's debut LP, a collab with John Digweed and a remix for RY X, the Eagle has most certainly landed.

Some killer cuts on this new special edition Klasse Wrecks release!! Long time friends Klasse Wrecks and Pelvis come together and release a joint venture. The Wrecks boys and Australian multi-disciplinary fashion/music/design-house had been orbiting each other for years with similar styles and taste (see Luca Lozano's 'King Blade EP' as proof). It only took the well timed and serendipitous sending of demos from mutual friend Roza Terenzi to seal the deal and concept of the split release and thus KWXPR001 was born. The 4 tracker is typical of both labels direction and even more so the signature style of Terenzi's bleepy and sharp-as-a-knife productions. The two original tracks 'Metal Glo' and 'Allstarz' are representative of Roza's mutant production style, taking in electro, breaks and futuristic atmospheres and show off the flair and confidence of the rising star from Perth.

UK duo Wayward continue to turn heads after a big 2018 and return with a fresh new EP that features a remix from cult minimal man, Voigtmann. 

 For their latest offering, they turn once more to Silver Bear Recordings as newly announced co managers of the label and in the process remind us of the depth and talent that remains a hallmark of their output.  Opener 'The Energy' is a driving cut with lush drum layers carrying you along as distant pads flesh out the groove. Soft female whispers add layers of soul and the whole thing will make close-knit floors go off. 'Space Marines' then gets more edgy, with techno-leaning drums and freaky samples that make for a pumping but classy groove, finished in style by some heavenly sounding, uplifting pads. Voigtmann is a long time underground figure, releasing on a range of vital labels and has a superbly reduced sound, showcased here on his druggy, infectious remix. Notable for its swirling pads and zoned out vibes, it rounds off another expert Wayward release.

With his last EP offering on Keinemusik, &ME displayed himself once again as supplier of anthems that easily reconcile style with
general floor purpose. You would think, such an universal and inexhaustible tune as this very After Dark' can only be a lucky hit.
But no, he's knocking out the classic material just like that. Another example Catalog number KM028, his brandnew Trilogy' EP.

The titletrack on A initially places a synth arpeggio behind a kick that in dryness is hardly to excel. The beat of "Trilogy" is then
seasoned with rimshot patterns until the saturated bassdrum comes in and paves the way to the dancefloor. &ME even refines his knack for stoic grooves on this jam and once again shows his sure feeling for suitable vocal features. Sabotas croon comes devoid of big gestures and still knows the ropes to appeal to the collective mentality of a clubcrowd.

On the flipside, Woods' is living up to its name from the very beginning. Woody percussions are thumping within an almost
subtropical scenario that's frequently pervaded by mighty synth clouds. And once again, there's an arpeggio sneaking in that at some point is taking the lead in this strictly instrumental affair. Add a break building that will educe a floor's complete euphoric potential without going for the rather mindless escalation and there you have it: a B-side that's actually more of an A-competitor.

Following his debut on Phantasy earlier in 2019, Joshua James returns to the label with ‘Journeys In Love’, complimented by a propulsive remix from Joe Goddard. Flipping the ruthless sleaze and hi-NRG of ‘Coarse’ on its head, the XOYO and Rinse FM resident presents a release that soundtracks the deeper, more vulnerable and always joyous aspects of London’s queer nightlife culture. ‘Journeys In Love’ lands with immediate effect, building steadily and confidently around a trippy sample and the hugely pleasurable push-and-pull of James’ synths. Breathing deeply and suspended in red-light, James’ new production tastefully recalls the late-hour, sensual attitude classic NYC deep house, while transmissions of a bottom-heavy bass weight anchor the track in the capital’s defiant after-hours scene. As a digital exclusive, the Super Drama remix utilises skittering percussion and cymbal rushes to drive things forward, dissolving with a playful acid coda.
Needing little introduction, Hot Chip and Two Bears co-founder Joe Goddard delivers a soaring and complementary reinterpretation of ‘Journeys In Love’, one built on halcyon, analogue sounds and further bathed in ecstasy and melancholy.

Fifth Interval gather together some of the most forward thinking minds in the dub techno sphere for this various artists EP. Those already acquainted with the label will be familiar with the likes of Federsen and Tomas Rubeck, who headed up the first and second releases respectively. They are joined by dub techno luminary Brendon Moller, aka Beat Pharmacy and Alessandro Crimi, for this four tracker of perfectly contrasting arrangements.
Federsen opens the proceedings with the sunset sequence of Bay Blues, cascading keys rolling through the gaps in a subtly broken drum arrangement, making for effortless and captivating listening. Beat Pharmacy contributes his first original material to the label after a brace of remixes last year. Showing true mastery of the board, chromed chord stabs are pushed and pulled around the mix in true dubwise style, drifting over a malleable bassline that packs a serious punch.
On the flip side, Tomas Rubeck crafts a tightly woven backdrop of constantly evolving, organic atmospherics and powerful drum work for IO, and this muscular workout is perfectly contrasted by the swung grooves and kaleidoscopic synthesis of Alessandro Crimi's Fractal Clouds, which closes the EP.

MUZI cartel is closing the summer with their second VA vinyl-only release. The A-side covers two Italian artists, beginning with ROWLE co-founder Dubfluss on the A1. A smooth entry into his world called ‘Milow’, covered in evolving pads and an embracing bass line. The A2 is by Jamahr, a groundbreaking duo, crushing the floor with ‘Ice Shelf’. Dreamy, groovy, and guided by its snares, waiting for the right moment to kick in. On the B-side, straight from the white isle, 2Vilas enters the door without taking off their shoes. ‘Dirty Sequence’ is a fast-pitched track worth it’s name that will make you move no matter what. Time to clean things up for Romanian talent BRYZ with the perfect closing track ‘Silence’. Close your eyes and let his hypnotic signature sound carry you away into his realm. What you get is what you don’t expect, this is MUZI 002.
