nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

nice price deal !!! austria and in particular vienna finds itself the focus for new and creative sounds - phlox is a fascinating imprint promising dubstep, plentiful low end and an intoxicating blend we can only describe as neuro garage. a new label, a new identity - and a refreshing music policy - simply that they dont actually have a music policy.

uk garage by tubby t, made in 2002 for jason kayes social circles imprint.

hot city is dropping some severely skewed house music, twisting it up with his own blend of jackin chicago house, 2step/ukg, and bass bumpers. with only two tracks sent out to a handful of the finest djs around in the past few months, he s secured two gigs playing out at wifey, certainly the most fun club in london at the moment, and managed to generate a fair amount of hype already:

reissue of uk garage classic!

in form and informed moves from the heavy artillery imprint. fresh off the back of a storming garage match up with el b for the soul motive crew, labelhead rossi b and long term cohort luca smack it around some more with some utterly deranged bassline power manoeuvres, completely stripping off any lactic sounds sometimes associated with that scene, all leaving a pristine and utterly rampant rhythm mastery on show. i.d drops a sensual garage mover which delivers equal parts ruffage and sensuality with just the right amount of piquancy for club play, really delicious stuff . 501 runs the dances ragged with a banging rave-ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied dances ragged with a banging rave ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied and complete package from this fine bristol label.

this track has been getting rinsed out by dj ez regularly on his kiss 100 show and out and about in club land. hes had it on an exclusive for about 2 months, and hes sure made use of that honour. its an instant crowd pleaser with its catchy female vocal hook & fat production. kinda like bassline garage meets booty breaks...

some sublime athmospheric techno tracks that go somewhere between dubstep, detroit techno and broken beat / garage. roof light did an excellent job on this 4 track ep with tracks that are light but full of emotion and athmosphere. radiance is for sure one of the high lights with its minimal funky bass line and cut up beats and massive strings layered on top. around here is the main track with its 90s two step rhythm and its deep athmospheric sounds and vocals. ltj bukem goes dubstep? not sure who is the producer... but if its a debut its pretty impressive. great release! must have for all the martyn and 2562 fans!

blasta s saga comes to an end with part 3 of his incredible adventures of kenzolika and quetzalcoatl among the air castles series. the product of an over-active imagination, this series has fused dubstep and post-garage riddims with traces of jazzy easy listening and psyched exotica. the most successful effort here has to be the garage rollidge of black muscatel offset by smooth and dreamy-clean synth keys, while zeppelin nacelle sails off with gently propulsive garage bass and trip42 brings the story to an end with down pitched dubstep beats subsiding into sunset 303s.

some notorious electronic music talents have started their careers as percussionists. and so did yaya, but his tale is different to all the rest. his new release for desolat takes a unique, upbeat approach to 4/4 beats: combining heartfelt benin influences - samples from dialogue and traditional ballads - with the stretched-out tension and release of balearic and the bubbling pops and stutters of tech house, plus the occasional kickback to a commodore64 high score melody. raised in turin, italy, rhythm was his lifeblood for yassin legali, also known as yaya, from an early age. his father was the lead vocalist and percussionist for mbamina, a band consisting of musicians from benin, zaire, italy and cameroon. mbamina released eight albums, collaborated with artists like manu dibango and salif keita, were sponsored by paco rabanne and played all over africa, including a show for the presidents of senegal and france. their final show was with james brown in paris in 1985 - the year yaya was born. well-versed in his fathers legacy, yaya grew up playing drums and djembe, and at the age of 15, began performing as a percussionist in turin clubs. just one year later, he was already djing, playing funk, soul, afrobeat, house and garage. manu dibango and fela kuti found a spot in his crate next to records by masters at work and dimitri from paris: contrasts of rhythm and structure that pervade his music to this very day.

after only two releases on 7even recordings f has already made huge waves on the scene with his unique sculpted approach to dubstep and techno.
now he is back with a cut which offers a glimpse at a different side to his productions, dub techno styled a-side >epilogue< comes correct, displaying what is clearly a long time love and appreciation of this music. clean production and atmospheric textures create the backdrop for a distant beat which drills into the psyche, making for a deep 4/4 journey trawling through the late night in a smoky haze.
on the b-side, ramadanman weighs in with a rework which absolutely slays. you could call it garage, you could call it dub-tech, but this track is so fresh, we re sure it ll have the funky house heads on their hands and knees as much as the dubstep crowd, dark as hell too - a total crossover. shit is tight, yo!
already supported by mary anne hobbs and rob booth amongst others, this release also featured in the 7even mix for the experimental show on bbc radio one in january 2009.

brand new release on apple pips from upcoming star brackles, one half of funk step outfit brackles & shortstuff, combining influences spanning techno and garage this is the apple pips sound and their pushing things in an interesting direction, both with their music and their stunning artwork. support from appleblim, mary anne hobbs, ramadanman, untold etc.

the seventh release of restoration records is the celebration of the love between men and machines. sykon is true joy and happiness, it s the speech of the synthesizers, it s the passion for hardware samplers and sequencers, it s the addiction to the juicy sound of tape compression. as usual, no computer has been involved in the production of this record.
ôyes, the 4th dimensionö, by eduardo de la calle is a masterpiece of hermetic theories applied to advanced minimal techno. it s mental and involving, deep and solid. hi-tech reduced synthesized sound build up a never ending progression upon the strictness of its low tom layer. mystical energy tthat will kidnap everybody on the dancefloor.
in marieu s ôrootsö, you can hear all the trademarks of the boss of the label. dark, hypnotic and pumping, it developes a bouncing double bass line that breaks the atmosphere with an aggressive 808 kick. acid and funky at the same time, it s simply a time bomb.
on side b, lucretio s ôwhere youö is a superb synthesis of his detroit techno and uk-garage influences. relentless effective old-school drums run with a female vocal sample. soulful chords sing along balistic claps. an evocative string line introduces a touch of blues. a sweet sunset on the groove, a smooth weapon.
last but not least, a touch of class by the analogue cops: ôslowlyö. it s a down beat fusion of jazz and deep house. a monumental bass drum bursts a celestial big band interlude. a sexy 303 acid line, an elegant high-hat, a snappy snare. just few things but on the right place. a delight for your mind and for your body.
