london based disco outfit faze action team up with celebrated anglo/brazilian artist, nina miranda for proto house crossover. faze action have always managed to take different musical traditions and blend them to create sounds that are somehow familiar whilst simultaneously containing the unexpected. last year s mangwana, featured long time faze action collaborator, zeke manyika, singing in his native zimbabwean shona over faze action s infectious disco production. this time, british/brazilian singer, artist and all round creative force de majeur, nina miranda, takes things further with her invitation to vamos pintar or let s paint, in portuguese. on the surface there is the familiar faze action restyled proto house but it soon becomes apparent that the brothers have appropriated more than just a brazilian vocal. punchy 808 drums and fizzy synths are infused with brazilian caixa and pandaro as if they had always been designed to co-exist. the remixes come from the illustrious max essa, whose british born/tokyo resident background chimes well with the international nature of this latest offering. his slo-mo bubble dub simmers with mediterranean sun that reclines into romantic piano flourishes and dubbed out vocals, whilst the extended dub manages to draw out the original elements at their original tempo. faze action s own paradise 90 dub closes the package by keeping close to the original arrangement with added economy and plenty of dub delay of course.

alien jams presents planet bangs, the 4th album from nochexxx, following on from 2015s dirt-driven apocalyptic electro jaunt plot defender (type recordings). this six track lp plants another stick in the mud, showcasing the producers love for oddball tape-saturated electronic delirium. planet bangs is clearly an ecosystem in distress..., metawitch s clanging rocks paves the way for creepy unsettling yelps and 303 squelch - an acid drenched broomstick joyride over mounds of rolling subs and hilly sines-waves - on stickshift, straight-jacketed conga loops barely spit enough voltage to hold pace, like a sputtering raymond scott machine in respiratory collapse. wafting familiar smoke signals originally lit by 90s era warp and detroit techno, overhound springs out the trap with a booty bounce towards the finish line. artwork by zeke clough. 180g vinyl, mastered by rupert clervaux.

after debuting their label with the return of headhunter, the trusik team returns with their second vinyl release from the ever-illusive ruffcut faculty member tremble. tremble has quietly made his presence known with reggae influenced tunes that are simultaneously roughly hewn, yet meticulous detailed in sound design. for trsk002, tremble gives us “too much terror”, which with all the daily attacks on civilians across the nations of the world, seems prescient. what starts out as sound system inspired roller slowly morphs into a technoid fusion of dread sub weight and dub techno chord flourishes. on the flipside, tremble simmers the tempo down to the 130ish range with “bwoy”. dancehall indebted sub detonations output cut vicious shapes while filtered rasta portents gradually build into a technoid climax. two killer sides for the concerning djs! for trsk002, trusik has incorporated artist ben ladieu’s immaculate pen and ink drawing into the overall aesthetic of the release. ladieu’s work is often dense, multi-layered and full of little hidden details that draw comparisons to 80’s diy punk flyers and zeke clough’s contributions to seminal dubstep label skull disco and woe to the septic heart.

4 track hand-stamped white label 12” ep by best available technology, released on the working nights label. stamp by skull disco’s zeke clough. 200 copies only.

recorded at the bands own illegal combatant studios and the world renowned blasting room in ft. collins colorado, supporting caste is the fifth full length release from winnipegs political punks propagandhi. crafted in collaboration with bill stevenson (black flag, descendents, zeke, 7 seconds), this twelve song collection of boundless power and depth is a 50.000 watt forward thinking tip of the hat to giants such as voivod, rush, snfu, sacrifice, razor and guilt parade, that have gone before them. legendary and unrepentant residents of humankinds ideological peanut gallery, propagandhi does not disappoint with supporting caste, launching crude rockets into the heart of the prevailing order with meditations that range in focus from the humane slaughter and consumption of non vegans in an elaborate 18 course banquet (with wine pairings) to the apparent confusion of turning on the tv to watch a simple hockey game and having to wonder whether or not the nazis actually lost the war after all. supporting caste: 12 new laments, reveries and extrapolations from 4 visibly aging prairie skids who still cannot believe that of all the gin joints in all the galaxies in all the universes, they had to be born on.
