the debut ep of new-born junction records begins with thorough exploration of driving and percussive techno sounds in the form of label head cool tiger’s warehouse for all”. from atmospheric, suspensive build-ups to warped vocals and glitchy fills, this intelligent production from paris based producer is a sweet taster of things to come and stands proud and deserving as a1 on this release. next up on this release we move to groovier territory with french duo m&c’s droofin”. swinging percussion and warm, soft synths are undoubtedly the driving force behind this track. old school grooves contrasted with luscious, slow-moving pads in the breakdowns combine to create an infectious and familiar house sound. in coherence with junction’s pattern, the final track on this release from german duo dominik fry and skipio is as warm as you would expect. hypnotising vocals, hovering subby pads and gentle arpeggiators characterise this melodic easy-listener.

jelly roll soul cohort jamie alexander makes his production debut with the scottish party crew’s second release. the aptly named ‘the stutterer’, opens proceedings, rocking a stunted, pittman-like groove whilst b1 ‘the growler’ furrows a more subterranean path - all dark grubby beats, disembodied voices and a menacing bass line. closing track ‘the dreamer’ contrasts neatly, with a more wistful and err dreamy vibe.

only 1 per customer, heady, head in the burbs techno culminations from newcastle, australia and producer jordon alexander who dips back into an insanely prolific production spell earlier this year (and follows up an ep on collect call) with four new tracks. mall grab’s ethereality is shadowy, mixed with familiar night drive sensations and drugged out strictly rhythm vibes, mildly celestial “hella stoned” introspections that pay homage to old three 6 mafia mixtapes as much as more recent astral experiences in house and techno. starting off with the faded menace of vocal track “awake”, which builds in steps into heavy, lo-fi 4/4 120 techno, the ep moves into hazy, sweaty and pumping zones on “elegy” and then to the b-side with the sunnier/just-woke-up feelings of “never”, before blurring into the melodic drift of slow burner “drive”, nostalgia-coated, hybridized and heavy all the way.credits

the second of this year’s smd singles on their own delicacies label is features another two original tracks, leading with the hypnotic, late night techno loping of “remember in reverse”, drenched in glistening synths. the second track, “soft attack” takes a much more direct approach, with a brash battering of crash cymbals on every 4th bar marking time as a sinuous synth melody curls around the rhythmatic trunk. “soft attack (drum version)” pares it down even further, excising the melody for a minimal dj tool. also included here is a remix of ‘remember in reverse” from 90s mid west techno legend, dj hyperactive, who we’re super excited to have on this release. he extensive 11 minute rework transforms the track, sprinkling it with subtle doses of acid. after a short hiatus following their modular-only, desert recorded last album “whorl”, during which smd s james ford found himself on production duties for everyone and their dog, smd are back with bunch of techno cuts on their own delicacies label. over a couple of months in jas shaw s newly re-located synth-dense studio in leafy kent, which saw smd once again experiment with live jams as the basis for their production, they’ve pulled together a selection of eight tracks for release as a series of four singles over the coming months. smd fans will note that the earlier naming convention of delicacies has fallen by the wayside – for the simple reason that we’ve pretty much run out of weird and wonderful food stuffs to steal names from. instead, a semi-random automated process has been used to create the track names.

one of the most accomplished and celebrated bands in the field of contemporary, unclassified pop music. almamegretta are masters in combining a wide range of elements such as dub, funk, reggae, world and electronica, all filtered through their own deep southern italian roots. the band from naples is now back with a new album, mixed by the dub master adrian sherwood, who had already been involved in their mid-nineties masterpiece “sanacore”. this new work consists of ten tracks, nine originals plus a well chosen cover of an old neapolitan hit by nino d’angelo transformed into a lovers rock style song. almamegretta’s original line up of gennaro t tesone, paolo polcari and raiz is augmented by a great list of collaborators and the result is a strong and multi layered set made of afro-funk numbers, reggae ballads, and other riddims, while the british dub influence remains central within the group’s wide sound palette. the title “ennenne”, which means no name, is inspired by the acronym used for those who are born from unknown parents. the right title for such a highly dense picture based on the combination of contemporary sounds and social topics.

thunder tillman is a cosmic vagabond who travels through space and time accompanied by his personal shaman. together, as if having fallen to earth, their mission is to recreate the music of their estranged home, reuniting with their brothers and sisters through an exquisite form of storytelling. while western music may have degenerated over the past 65 years, troopers such as thunder tillman continue to drill down toward an elusive core, searching for something holy while never bastardizing their art with insincere advents of technology or convenience—as is apparent throughout their immaculate analogue production on this esp institute debut, jaguar mirror. comparisons to genres like krautrock are predictable, however we feel these four songs are so heavily narrative and wildly visceral that attempting to categorize the music would be a disservice to your imagination. we implore you to lay back in a nice stereo environment and absorb the purity of thunder tillmans endeavor—appreciate their command of melody, composition, spectrum, magic and try to recall the last time you chanced upon something truly different
