r&s keep things in the family with mpia3s brother tessela dropping his debut ep for the label. since 2011, ed russell has been moulding a style of dance music as tessela that has evolved to become a distinctly futuristic animal that is equal parts rave, jungle and techno as it incorporates classic breaks into delirious new mutations. the three tracks on this ep all follow on from his superb *hackney parrot* track but evolve his sound even further. nancys pantry combines bruising kick drums and some slick editing of the think break, before plunging headlong into thundering techno. horizons percolating hi hats and rough-hewn percussion roll off repeating chords that recall the heady days of rave. gateways uncomplicated arrangement of high hats, sub bass, siren like synths and quaking kick drums rattle through the tracks chassis and club soundsystems. early supporters to the tracks include ben ufo, pariah, surgeon, pearson sound and paul woolford, testement to what might be tesselas most lethal offering yet.

a word from label boss chris farrell: this is the new one on idle hands, from us producer strategy. i first came across paul dickows work when he released a 12 inch called *world house* on his own community library label back in 2005. it blew me away. in the ensuing years my friend duncan george who promoted bristol’s best electronic music night - under_score tried on numerous ocasions to book him for a bristol date but it never quite hapened due to the usual things that go wrong in club land. in those years duncan kept in touch with paul and last year suggested to him that it might be worth sending some tracks to me, which he did at the start of 2013… add a peverelist remix and you have the tracks here before you, dub reggae informed house and psychedelic 2 step vibes.

leeds based duo death on the balcony return to seven music after dropping their party perspectives ep on the label in march of this year. mark caramelli and paul hargreaves have been busy boys over the last few years, releasing on esteemed labels such as culprit, pets, silver network and airdrop. their years of experience as djs and record collectors shines through in the pairs productions, but what sets the guys apart from the rest of the rat race is the amount of depth and emotion they manage to pack into their tracks. music that will easily stand the test of time and sound equally as good on the dancefloor, as it will on the headphones!

evensloped is back again on 9volt. paul.groove and lars gustavs new 12 inch is an per(c)fect mix of raw techno, driving grooves and a bit dirtiness. rumbling basses, mind blowing breaks and the exceptional sound design will keep you at the floor. prime time techno at its best.

but that the cocoon compilation l is all about love, is beyond debate: the love for electronic dance music, for its complexity and its diversity, the love for this global musical language and last not least the enthusiasm for the well-known and the still non-famous protagonists of this tonal romance that faithfully accompanies us through night and day for more than 30 years now.
