lil silva returns to night slugs to drop the second installment in our new club constructions series.
cc is all about stripped-back, raw and highly functional tracks made specifically for the club. where l-vis 1990s first venture into the series presented a brutalist vision of house, silvas volume 2 represents the vital flip side to the concept: broken, grimey rhythm tracks.

classic reggae !!

on this white label, we bring together two of the best producers in the uk to give there perspective of the work of sbtrkt. the ratio of quality to quantity in the braiden repertoire is disproportionately weighted in favour of quality. his debut release >the alps<, on joy orbisons label doldrums, certified him as a meticulous detailed producer. if youve heard is rinse fm show, youll have enjoyed the intensity and breadth of his perspective. this musicological take on sbtrkts >pharaohs< recontextualises roses gabor afro-futuristic vocals line in a more genuinely space-age industrial club sphere. the darker edge to lil silva is just the baddest of all uk house producers. his uk funky background has sheltered him from the hype lauded upon the flavour of the month post-dubstep producers of his generation. as a result, hes continued to garner respect from all sides, from the garage scene to the tech house scene. his treatment of >living like i do< takes his mate samphas vocal and adds a jerk discord to an already tense and dramatic vocal performance. his trademark 2-note bassline presents itself with its usual menace, ensuring waistlines to react promptly.

from the creators of cannibal society comes this imprint aimed at underground, stonecold hardtechno! the new domestic violence finally hits the streets. sam silva teaming uo with his friends ocram, monster mush, greg notill and zheta on this wicked piece of vinyl.

in recent years lil silva has been responsible for some of the uks biggest underground bangers, with his uniquely stripped-back, heavyweight style blending jacking house with the raw sonic energy of 1st generation grime.
following up on his ltd white label release in april, night slugs are proud to present night skanker, lil silvas iconic new ep.
the four melodic, synth-laden tracks are typically raw and grimey but also run deeper with a newfound luminescence. constructed from a robotic new sound palette, silvas tuff flange-funk drum programming and twisted carnival rhythms are permeated by razor-sharp neon synths, jacking cowbells, massive slabs of sub bass and even silvas own sampled vocals. these are industrial-size riddims for worldwide dancefloor demolition!

night slugs are extremely proud to announce a new addition to their roster in the form of the one and only lil silva! the young mastermind behind potent uk funky anthems such as seasons, funky flex, different and the funky pulse, lil silvas house-meets-grime style has become iconic of the ukf scene. his tracks are cornerstones for djs like marcus nasty, who describes them as having the unique ability to consistently bun down raves. with that in mind lil silvas addition to the night slugs family makes perfect sense. his contribution to their limited vinyl-only white label series is a taster of what can be expected from his official ep for ns, dropping later this year. in the mean time feast yourself on the ultra-upfront a million, featuring carnival synths, glass breaks and snare destruction in the typical silva fashion. on the flip, silva pays tribute to house pioneer kenny dope in the form of the ultra-stripped down bassline-driven banger no hooks. bruckout time!

jazz / experimental

pure, atmospheric piano album

jo‹o paulo esteves da silva, m‡rio franco and samuel rohrer together combine all the qualities that are currently making this most classical chamber-music format of jazz so successful. intuitive understanding, transparent flows of communication between the musicians, their actions and reactions, soloistic sequences that continue the balanced flow of sounds, as well as musical culture and noblesse. this trio does not boast but trusts the spaces between the notes. yet its music develops a pull, gently insisting, that becomes ever more plausible
