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.

punch drunk proudly closes 2013 with a fearsome new 12 inch single from hodge. this release marks his first solo release on the label following up his collaboration with peverelist entitled *bells*, which appeared earlier this year. previous releases for deadplate and well rounded housing projects have been well received, but we believe that this new record is certainly his best to date.

heartically dubwise, rugged and raw essays in classic grime, uk garage and dubstep from a new london-berlin collaboration, with stuff like horsepowers in fine style galloping through its nervous system.
a three-tracker to kick the label off, on 180g vinyl: the opener engrains snatches of melody into a percussive firefight, like something from the actress war-chest, the outstanding, elemental, stop-start jack the dub is more bristolian, from the peverelist suit of trumps, monkey is out and impressionistic.
bristol hub soul motive scored a massive coup in enlisting punch drunk boss peverelist to remix >stableface<, one of the standout tracks from clouds of moments, the 2010 debut set from lithuanian experimental dubstepper eleven tigers. that they choose to complement it with two further remixes is tantamount to treating us, with both dark sky and macc on board to further re-contextualise the cracked atmospherics. in the hands of dark sky, >stableface< is twisted into a brooding dark side steppah with subtle hints of jungle pressure pervading the lower reaches, the 50 weapons trio playfully teasing with the vocal before dropping in a bassline that can only be described as rude. on the flip, macc showcases his enviable drumming skills with a heavily cinematic roller of a remix dominated by those rumbling, live rhythms
nice price deal !!! vae victis is back for its 2nd release and is glad to welcome the very first debut of nightjars. with this 4 tracks ep the label shifts on a different musical path, sound and style wise. sound wise, both sides are written, mixed and produced on hardwares and polarized on a ferromagnetic tape. technically, side a (raw side) is mixed with a tough multitrack mixer brought to its saturation limit: the sound is indeed distorted, raw and unfriendly. while the flipside (clean side) is instead mixed with a big class a vintage studio mixer. the sound is brighter, richer of harmonics and the infrasounds are charged thru a wide dynamic range. style wise,the label shifts on a more broken beat field, lets call it bass, dubstep or whatever, but anyway something which should put this vinyl in the records bags of all the lovers of shed, peverelist and horsepower productions to name a few.
we kick off 2011 with the latest collaborative plate of bristol-based build badness – label boss baobinga cooking up two what-do-you-call-it tracks with one of 2010s breakthrough producers, the man they call hyetal. starting 2010 with a huge punch drunk release alongside shortstuff, hyetal further refined his sound through collaborations with peverelist, and the massive prince-tastic anthem >phoenix< on orca – which can be found sitting proudly at number 36 in fact magazines tracks of the year run-down. with some big releases due in 2011, and more velour beats (with julio bashmore) on the way, we are very excited to have him involved in a build release.
having already released tunes for some of the scenes most respected record labels (immerse, aquatic labs, bare dubs, sub aquatic dub) and earned support from big hitters like ramadanman, peverelist and scuba, spherix steps up on his own lowercase imprint with >in a hole< and >in the dark<.
earwax is very proud to present this huge 12 inch from >purple trinity< producer gemmy, guaranteed to cause serious sonic pressure on a dancefloor near you! >maroon chant< is possibly one of gemmys biggest tunes yet, a carefully crafted dancefloor monster brim with catchy purple melodic synths and heavy weight bass. the intro leads in with a looped tribal chant as the pattern is sucked into rolling snapping percussion before the squelching, ever-evolving bassline drops. the track build and flows effortlessly maintaining high energy levels throughout. big tune. flip then for >last 3 digits< ? the title being a reference to pirate radio shows where the host refers to callers by the last 3 digits of their phone number. >let me have 1 caller for the rewind<. heavy hitting rave stabs punch out the catchy melody here before the track switches up into a grimey beat and even grimier bassline. quality rave music.

theres a common thread that runs through all of brandt brauer fricks music. it is this: interesting things happen at the interface of machine and hand-made music. the berlin trios 2010 album, you make me real, fused techno and classical. the 2011 follow-up, mr machine, saw them go the whole classical-meets-club hog with a ten-piece ensemble playing dance music live. then, earlier this year, came miami, a darker, more song-based collection exploring the same man-machine ideas.
paul rose, aka scuba, the mastermind behind the incredibly well curated hotflush label, has been enlisted to create his own dj-kicks mix. featuring a healthy helping of exclusives from his camp including new music from addison groove & boddika, the mix treads the line between the uk bass music scene in which scuba came up, and the techno sounds dominant in his current home of berlin, creating a new sound in the process.
