the 3rd album from clap! clap! on black double vinyl.

black acre favourites return with a new ep featuring a special remix from the one and only daniele baldelli! the original pioneer of the cosmic scene delivers a tripping dance floor remix alongside the a live 12 min version on this special limited twelve inch. taken from the second clap! clap! album, ode to the pleiades is delivered here in a way you’ve never heard before. think khidja or that amazing insanlar record on honest jon’s from a while back. rolling, tribal percussion, turkish saz, thumping modern kick drums and loads of whistle blowing. simply screams party time to us.

following in the wake of the hotly tipped second clap! clap! lp on black acre, ‘remixes’ is reloaded with 3 dancefloor targeted bullets. peckham’s disco provocateur, medlar steps up first with a re-thinking of ar-raqis with clinical cut’n pasting precision creating a thumping bongolian edit. paleman takes a more stripped back approach, reducing hope to its bare heart-racing essentials. last up is japan’s jun kamoda, turning to his reliable sp1200 to create a galloping clockwork carnival smasher!

one of italy’s brightest new talents, clap! clap! (aka cristiano crisci) returns with his second album for black acre, following on from his colorful breakthrough debut lp ‘tayi bebba’. bringing together disparate inspirations and styles onto the dance-floor of his mind, ‘a thousand skies’ sees clap! clap! create a high energy and inventive kaleidoscopic fusion of sound – drawing on the traditional global rhythms of the old world, hip hop, footwork, uk bass and house.

after storming the gates with his warmly received tambacounda ep, clap! clap! returns to deliver his debut longplayer. tayi bebba is a conceptual work that manages to balance a highly cerebral concept with making some good old-fashioned bangers. tayi bebba is an album tour of an imagined island, each song representing a location, event or ritual. sonically, it is a fast moving charge across the soundscape, fusing field recordings and found sound with incredibly surgical drum programming. flavours of house, footwork and hip hop punctuate your migration with a very specific sound palate, giving this amazing work a cohesive feel.

launching after the seminal tambacounda ep clap! clap! drops 2 works carved from the same tree as the soon to come long player. buck is a customary quick-step drum workout where the world both modern and ancient collides to create an explosive oldworld sci-fi b-boy stomper. on the flip ichnusa is a more dreamy psyched out acid voyage across the planes.

clap! clap! is longtime jazz player cristiano crisci, also known in electronic circles as digi g alessio. with cross genre accolades and support spanning the globe he is already established a one of italys brightest talents, supporters include, annie mac, diplo, toddla t, skream ...
here in full chopped up afro-future mode he fuzes the hiss crackle and fuzz of heavy tribal sampling with broad stroke drum programming. the fluidity of time signatures and deft jazz minded drumming gives the tambacounda a woozy and hallucinogenic feel, tracks travelling from deep jungle drama to carnival ecstasy.

sam vicary a.k.a hunrosa (meaning “to dream”) is an electronic music producer capturing the wild organic senses of his childhood and anchoring it with a darker 2am undercurrent. based in manchester, he is principally a bassist and currently a member of the cinematic orchestra, paper tiger and the dominic j marshall trio, as well as performing with manu delago, imogen heap, matthew halsall, anil sebastian and stuart macallum. his latest offering “ransome” is a heavily rhythmic journey, full of textured hand percussion and soaring strings, accompanied by the beautifully melodic vocals of alice higgins drifting overhead. the clap clap remix sees the black acre mainstay exploring expansive territories, polyrhythmic hand percussion and textured electronica perfectly intertwine, drenched in dub ambience, heightened by scattered arpeggios and swirling synths. the music is inspired by a coastal upbringing, represented in the music via field recordings, as well as being aided by visual stimulus throughout the writing process.

2015 has been an outstanding year for django django with the release of their inventive second album ‘born under saturn’ which was met with rave reviews across the board. continuing that success, the band are ready to unleash four fresh mixes of the latest single ‘pause repeat’ which, as we’ve come to expect from django’s remix packages, are about as on point as it gets. the package starts out with an african beat paired with parisian synths on debruit’s indie dance mix. night slugs’ bok bok offers stop-start disco-infused euphoria. italy’s clap! clap! brings in off-kilter rhythms and infectious bubbles of analogue bass. finally one half of legendary glaswegian duo optimo, jd twitch, heads into deep, dubby and progressive techno territory.
