big mean sound machine is a twelve-piece afrobeat band native to ithaca, new york. they tour 150 days a year and have a large and dedicated following up and down the east coast. still, it is a crime that big mean sound machine is not well known elsewhere. the band’s tremendous sound combines a big band aesthetic while channeling a global sense of musicality. their shows leave fans drenched in sweat from dancing as audiences absorb the west african, caribbean, jazz and funk traditions that big mean sound machine carries forward.

white visitation steps up with his second release for blank slate. 013 sees the rising producer stepping into faster, more techno centric realms with a thumping low end and heavily textured layers of percussion. seriously heavy, high intensity rollers straight from the lab.

michal wolski returns to blank slate to deliver another ep. blank slate 011 is a continuation of wolskis signature dubby minimalist strain of techno. the warsaw veterans ability to summon thick hypnotic ambience makes his compositions instantly recognisable. wolskis patience and subtlety summons a nuanced version of power.

white visitation, who debuted on blank sate 006, returns with a full ep that showcases his vast musical capability. the mexico city native doesn’t submit to the boundaries and limitations of genre to frame his musical identity. prepare for a barrage of brutalist percussion, heavy melancholy and exercises in elegance and elation.

deep, diverse music by the varsovian (who popped up on the blank slate 006 showcase). grooving, questing, finely detailed.

the 7th blank slate release sees the most welcome return of rene audiard to the imprint. two track, 2 words: mesmerizing & haunting.

michal wolski wastes no time with derivate, his first appeance on vinyl. clipped percussions arc and swoop around a throbbing 909 kick as a grinding bass and ragged open hats begin their dark business. crystalline lead synths raise the tension and climax with a brutal filtered clap and jarring percussion.

blank slate presents the debut of the düve project, a collaboration between soren jahan and ali Çakir. combining live recorded drums and instrumentation, samples from vintage 78s, internet videos and analogue electronics, this fifth instalment holds nothing back.

vinyl only, mastered by d&m
bergstrom cuts to the chase: cavernous, reverbed chords, slicing high hats and steely snares strapped to a sinewy 909 kick, with a siren droning faintly in the background. four-to-the-floor ekaterina is the fever dream of funky house: icy hats and reverbs trick out a heavily filtered synth and a heaving sample of vintage polka. kicking off the flip, more war: state and revolution evokes a kind of long march beneath forbidding skies, its occasional skirmishes between razor sharp hats and muted claps blanketed by echoing synth stabs. finally, damperhof draws the curtains and departs the dancefloor: a mournful, impressionistic cello, a slow throb, a little acid, sombre chords bouncing around the ruins... this is mirko at his most expressive

a four-track ep, bemired and evil-eyed, but with room for arnaldo to breathe out and flex a little after his spooked, sparked contribution to blank slate 001. the opener is a dubwise bubbler, with spaced-out keys, free woodblocks, shuffling hi-hats and elastic 303 bass. atmosphere breached is more jazzy and messed-up, running funky organ through sizzling fx, syncopated handclaps and filtered groans. the flip is dancefloor-trained. our pick of the bunch, verano is in a dark, hissing, aqueous world of its own, chugging and stomping, with relentless tambourines, crunchy filtered tribal drums and detuned horns. heads down to close: lost voices and a 909 kick, chattering hi- hats and rattling percussion administer the licks.

original, mystical, minimal house excursions, over fourteen and twelve minutes respectively.

a brand new house label from the b-tracks camp, harsher and more bad-boy than supply, with a killer four-track showcase to get the ball rolling. fresh and diverse... exceptionally good. scarily small amount available...

the next ep on blank mind comes from dj ojo. his first fully fledged ep is the result of a mission to find balance between warmth and weirdness, structure and disorder, resulting in dripping, humid tracks with presence and a subtlety that holds sway well beyond the edge of the dancefloor.
