basaec is the label founded by cadenza chief luciano as an output for the music of its roots, coming from the chilean prosperous archives or from brand new productions. the fourth episode of the series features two extended fleshy cuts of thick dance floor nourishment. -nature reverance- is a grandiloquent obscure hypnotic journey to the center of the earth, permeated of bass frequencies and jazzy drums, exalted by a slithering capturing leslied organ. less inward-looking but still thousands leagues under the sea, -trance ilvana- has a shuffled prancing rhythm over an ultra funky stripped down bass line, its swooshes and its drops of juicy synthetic quirks sticks smoothly with its driving bass drum. a generous condensation of timeless electronic funk, and a kaleidoscope of lucien nicolet early allure, hard coded in his dna.
penny penny s second record—hard to find anywhere for years— available again! it s powerful music with a message that came following the success of his debut shaka bundu (1994). that album introduced a style of shangaan disco sonically coined by penny and his brilliant producer joe shirimani, blending traditional tsonga folk music sensibilities and good old bangin african-american house music.

every so often public release takes a snapshot along their discography timeline, to pause and recognize the various artists that represent the past, present and future of where the label sits. the last such release was in 2016, and four years, twelve releases later it’s time for another marker. this ep pools together six exclusive tracks from their global family, some on the pr roster for the very first time. from the beautifully addictive melodies by tendts and metropolitan soul museum, brooding baselines and synths from richard sen and tim sweeney, to the ecstatic floor energy produced by fran-key and earth boys, the range presented here is impressive. equally enjoyable as an abbreviated album, or as singular tracks at your service.
