the new album from eli “paperboy” reed on vinyl with download code included.

a year after his debut outing on the label, max essa makes a welcome return to hell yeah with the han zon roc ep, which is another of his impossibly laidback offerings. essa is of course the long time uk talent who has become a part of the balearic mafia thanks to releases on labels like aficionado, music for dreams, and his own jansen jardin. this is the second coming together of artist and label and is another timeless excursion far out to sea. opener han zon roc (midori coup) is an epic 12inch minute adventure that slowly awakens your spirit with new age guitar plucks and heavenly ambience before organic drums slowly being to drift into earshot. they grow ever larger as synths start to spray about the mix, hand drums pitter patter and big chords bring the soul-shine. its like the soundtrack to an afternoon boat party all condensed into one brilliant cut. how you showed me everything then gets super chill with lazy drum tumbles, bendy guitar lines and scattered hits. withering cosmic chords colour the airwaves and its a track that will slow your heartbeat to nothing. last of all, rain birds alfalfa jam is a analogue drum work out with early 90s hip hop influences and diving basslines. it s light and airy, nimble and playful and of course filled with the sort of tropical rays that make all of essa works so brilliantly escapist.

nach vier jahren im studio, in denen sie ihren perfektionismus und ihre liebe zum detail bis aufs Äußerte zelebriert haben, veröffentlichen blek le roc nun ihr gleichnamiges debüt-album. das indie-pop-trio überrascht den zuhörer mit einem filigranen und doch satten sound, der so ungewöhnlich wie fesselnd ist. ihre musik ist keinem schema verhaftet. beinahe schüchtern fasst sie den zuhörer mit dem ersten ton, umklammert ihn immer fester und lässt ihn in andächtiger stille wieder warten. ohne pathos. die songs erzählen geschichten des scheiterns, des fragens, des wartens. sie sind offen für die interpretationen der hörer. alles ist mehrdeutig. scheitern kann hier auch aufbruch bedeuten. ist warten nicht gleichzeitig veränderung? es gibt keine klarheit …

serial chart toppers bombstrikes are back again with another ep of club wrecking music. canadian j-roc is at the controls for this one and the end result is a great showcase of how the sould out dj is carving a niche for his own brand of quirky and bass influenced music. also on the ep is a colab with label boss mooqee, so as you would expect from bombstirkes, the pedigree involved is high on this one.

3 breakbeat tracks by cut la roc, taken from his album >nemesis<.

dj roc, known to his mother as clarence johnson, was born and raised on the southside of chicago better known as the low end. the crack in >crack capone< refers to his style of production. like an underground chemist, dj roc produces variant strains of chicago juke music, the crack referring to the synapse snapping, potentially ankle cracking manipulation of rhythms and the sampling, hijacking and ultra-rhythmic micro-editing of black american pops dominant forms into a style thats been developed and tested on the streets of chicago.

just just >just sort of happened< according to producers fake chicken and cheap soap. although the piece has a deep and elaborate sound, the production process was unusually quick, as everything just fell into place after the duo was inspired by a great summer season in music. just just is fake chicken and cheap soaps first release on greenhorn records, alongside tigerskins and king rocs remixes of the track
