repress incoming april 2019!
melbourne talent lou karsh steps up for xk011 and delivers an astonishing ep of emotive acid and techno. with only a handful of releases on his own imprint, lou karsh records, and under his evil reptilian alter ego (which shall not be exposed here), the maturity of these productions belies a relatively new hand… watch out!

bringing in milestone number ten for x-kalay we’ll be kicking off a series of various artist eps. whilst taking in 3 continents brings a certain geographical diversity, the aim of this record was to create a cohesive release bound by the common themes of electronic music we love at the label.

august sees us return to where it all began with a very special record from founding x-kalay artist, kask.

next up for xk008 we present mysterious russian newcomer, diego tierres and his solar winds ep. based in st petersburg he’s served us up four of the toughest warehouse burners you’re likely to hear this side of the iron curtain. proper raw material, this is straight out the furnace, blow your doors off, no prisoners shit.

departing from the lush green planet earth and hurtling through the atmosphere in a burst of punching subs, clattering snares and flying melodies. number six on london’s ever impressive x-kaly has arrived. four cuts that do the right amount damage via a heady mixture of ethereal wandering pads, pulsating sine wave bass, improv jazz keys, languid stepped bass lines and deliciously skittish percussion all shimmering in a bath of otherworldly delight. next level stuff!

produced on an array of hardware in slim steve’s bedroom in rome, this is a refreshingly honest ep and takes x-kalay into somewhat nostalgic territory. 90’s ballads meet sampled italo percussion, skittish pitched up vocals pierce dangerous basslines and lung busting breakdowns give way to searching lasers in smoke filled rooms. english born italian steve langrish accomplishes all this with a level of effortlessness that belies his astonishingly young years.

from the jagged electro tinged “seattle city light”, through the drifting hazy levels of “blacked” and “pisces” to the kicked back paradise of “untitled monday”, rudolf serves up a masterclass in blissed out backyard house. undulating juno soundscapes and warbling 303s merge seamlessly with roughed up rhythms punched through the mpc. this one’s for the heads on the dusty trail, the midnight drive, and the pacific swells. those in the back seat with the window down and the feet up...

based in tallinn, estonia, young up-and-comer andreas kask offers up the inaugural release on new london based imprint x-kalay. due 7th december 2015. hot on the heels of his emotive three tracker for amsterdam based imprint, legendary sound research, kask continues here in a similar vein. saturated in machine warmth, we are taken on an unerring journey through the analogue deep. soundscapes shot through with the warm emotion and raw melancholy hues of a new tallinn dawn.
