rq’s debut lp for blu mar ten music, ‘solid ground’, occupies a darkly dreamlike hinterland, located somewhere between the retro-futurism of photek and alice coltrane’s jazz psychedelia. fragmented, distant beats, rippling modal patterns and restrained astral basslines provide rhythmic and harmonic anchors to a constellation of timbres and textures.

mar & sol first release is aleluia lp from the cabo verde singer pedrinho. at the time, late 70 s, this lp was one of the biggest successes from cabo verde music. singer pedrinho moved to lisbon when he was 18 years old, and recorded this album, the first one of his career. aleluia was produced in the same street where mar & sol is based nowadays, in rua de s.bento, lisbon, portugal. this street was also where pedrinho come to live when he arrived in portugal, like the majority of the musicians and emigrants from the old african portuguese colonies move at that time, to try a new luck. a big community grew here and these artists got the opportunity to record their own traditional music by the hands of local labels. now is the time for mar & sol to give a new life to all this music, this is the first of many reissues that are coming to start the series of the label.

‘oma is an immense piece of work, taking its sonic cues from borderlands while expanding them into far wilder territories. organic clashes with electronic in a whirlpool of tribal head banging, fragile introspection and beautiful sonic architecture. skittering rhythms, rock solid basses, angelic vocals and heartbreaking instrumentation are guaranteed to make oma one of the most notable drum & bass albums of 2017 and conduct one of its prominent acts.

this album -sesiones de panamá- was born from a live session in janeiros studio, and that freeform live attitude is clearly evident in the resulting music. throughout the six long tracks of the album, the trio build up progressive atmospheric pieces of genre-defying instrumental music that sits comfortably on rhythmic patterns reminiscent of house.

we re happy to welcome mar-t & luca donzelli for their three track debut on 8bit, this is bound to become a future classic! modelchord is a slick groover locking down the floor with vibing bass and tight drums to roll along. next up is refuture, that hooks through snapping snares and filtered synths evolving right into a build up full of energy - hands up guaranteed when the beat drops back. true religion is a dreamy tool made for the club, smoothly blending in at almost anytime, and completing this package of quality sounds. with model your future ep mar t & luca donzelli deliver a versataile premiere, we re sure there s more to come!

the cultured minimood extra label introduces london based newcomer tcherneyan with remixes from the mighty och and minimoods own volt.mar on green colour vinyl. the a1 is provided by och, producer of the legendary whalesong, and consists of icy hi-hat ringlets and rippling dub techno chords, which merge into a slice of prime time excellence. next a2 mauvais présage is a deep techno track built around a dumpy kick drum that gets slowly embellished with skating and skirting percussion and distant groaning chords that sound like sad monsters. the b side opens with tcherneyans second original b1 vision, an eerie, vast and empty open space of chilly synths and echoing voices. finally, volt.mar on b2 then reworks mauvais présage into something that lurks with menace in some desolate industrial park where intriguing synth lines weave their own path and white noise blasts occasionally jolt you from your trance. much like the previous release, minimmood have struck stripped back, deep and dubby techno gold with this latest ep. vinyl only / no repress!
