tim & dwarde return for globex corp volume 6 with their hippin and their hoppin and their bippin and their boppin . four fresh jungle/hardcore cuts from tim, dwarde and a special guest appearance from the mighty sonar s ghost!

myor are massively proud to finally welcome tim reaper to the family. on the a-side tim and coco team up for two darkish-yet-uplifting hardcore cuts in the best of 92/93 traditions: one version for the pleasuredome and one for the thunderdome. on the flip the darkness is left behind altogether. e is for energy, euphoria, ecstasy, or in the case of sonar s ghosts sublime remix, elevation, to a higher level of junglism

first word records are very proud to present a heavyweight ep in collaboration with seminal groove collective, coop: selectors assemble . it s been almost two decades since a bunch of music makers, bored of the genre constraints of their time, began toying with time signature and syncopation to birth what is now known as broken beat. summer 2017, the selectors assemble ep is in our laps and we have a fitting reminder and long-overdue renaissance of one of london s most valuable musical movements.

imagine a collab between cabaret voltaire and eric copeland mixed by the scientist and you’ll start to enter the sphere of robin asselman. all spectrums explored. the off kilter dub waltz of ’16-16’ stutters into view with a heavy and heady rolling dread, whilst inaudible vocal snippets and flatlining synth lines echo and enforce a melee of repetition and danger. ‘fitness talk’ perhaps best showcases assel’s interest in dubwise production techniques, and his ability to soak up a palette of sound and turn it into something truly his own. soft familiar bass pads provide the backbone here for all out sample mayhem, a space where recognisable dub effects and sonars vibe alongside absolutely unsettling outer samples of jarring vocals and inaudible upset, purposefully mixed to jolt ears into unfamiliar territories. being the nephew of dj marcelle, this experimental approach and inspiring concept of pushing samples to the absolute limits of their origin to create a new unexplored path is clearly something that has been fed down from marcelle to robin throughout his youth....

fatdog records returns after a break, offering contributions from 3 artists new to the label - the rutan, tom mc connell and mark hand. fdr003 offers a development from the deep house template on the last ep, this time taking us further into deeper detroit territories. mark hand offers us drexciyan techno in the form of cold feet. the rutans fable sits somewhere between vakula and some of henrik schwarzs earlier dub-house experiments, while fat dog takes us to the murky back alleys of his mind with jaffa cakes. finally tom mc.connells juniper takes us into wonkier groove rhodes stylings which rounds off the ep very nicely indeed. support by john heckle, afrikan sciences, lay-far, enrico (neroli), sonars ghost (2000 black), burnski, wolf music

a best off all new things on the everpopular phobiq imprint by sasha carassi. the mechanized warfare of void opens up the release, with industrial snares taking front and center. meanwhile, the steamrolling groove never lets up and bleeding stabs lead the way to a subliminal riff that grows and mutates.the original mix of z-nasti makes strong use of ghostly chords while sonars fire away over tightly programmed drums.

e b t g minimal tech retreat !!! this years sonars biggie hit!!!
