even though we re not paladins of pure concepts, the sound we re currently looking to release usually has a raw, kinda primitive and rough around the edges nature. we re definitely not looking for the generic -soul sample meets a 4x4 beat- kind of edit. for this release we challenge 4 of our favorite porto producers to give their unique twist to different samples and sounds of records we love. ranging from upbeat disco rhythms to organic drums and hypnotic g funk melodies this release has it all. we truly believe this is a honest representation of part of the porto music movement that makes us proud.
manchesters yadava steps up to the plate for the next installment of the high praise edits series. a member of the cities infamous party collective so flute collective, yadava has steadily been making a name for himself as a incredible selector with productions to match (including recent release on the likes of church and banoffee pies records). he also holds down the expansions show on nts radio alongside co-host contours. with his incredible knack for weaving spiritual, soulful and uplifting energies throughout his music, it s no wonder we had to get him on board for high praise edits vol iv.

7 track ep/mini album by l/f/d/ms richard smith dream bleeds overflows with body jerking industrial, raw acid/techno, and hints of the warehouse sound of the late 90s and the caustic spirit of ebm. richard smith says about dream bleeds, attaching meaning to songs is often arbitrary but when the visceral feeling of music, particularly instrumental body music, is laid bare, the interaction is immediate and physical. these tracks thread together each starting point completely open, each new step informed by the last. i find it interesting that the process is the same but the outcome somewhat unexpected shaped by emotion, inspiration or even constraints of time, they evolve as they do in that time. they reach a different end point due to that evolution of circumstance.
after numerous features and collaborations obenewa, kaidi tatham and dego combine together to form blacks & blues.three song based dance tracks to fill the void of underground vocal club music. spin is flavoured with s.a house & afrobeatz whilst obenewa sings about the wonder that is love. you know the feeling moves towards the funk that is synonymous with 2000black and dont know why (chant for love) is purely the marriage between reggae and jazz.
