lorca kick starts 2014 with forgive me love / naoko, his debut release on breachs (aka ben westbeech) naked naked imprint, joining the ranks of dusky, dark sky, midland, mak & pasteman and westbeech himself. the two-track ep follows up lorcas highly acclaimed 2013 if i told you ep on 2020 midnight visions, and his stellar remix of ghostpoets cold win which received widespread support, with midland tipping it as quite possibly the remix of the year. with highly lauded releases on dummy, throwing snows left_blank imprint and church, lorca has made a strong impression in the two short years he has been producing. his superb cant see higher / missed me ep in 2012 on dummy was the turning point, transforming him from a promising young talent into an exceptional one, gaining support from the likes of bonobo, rob da bank, deetron and scuba… this latest release meets building expectations, both tracks incredibly smooth, nostalgia-inducing and heavily textured, solidifying lorcas unique sound.

cyber dance records return with a full-length double-vinyl album from manchesters kid machine (aka mark wilkinson) following a string of instantly sold-out eps for viewlexx, red laser and flight recorder. a long-time collaborator of world-famous italo disco dj flemming dalum, it is no surprise that many of the tracks have that hallmark space sound reminiscent of the likes of cyber people and koto, but mark stamps his own distinct identity on the genre by slowing down the bpms and incorporating many other influences throughout so that this is no retro affair but a distinctly fresh and modern take on the genre.

we introduce you you the first ep from dave and the first remix of raresh and praslea working together as praslesh. polen 002 is more than a vinyl, its a piece of sound + visual art, a collaboration between us, the names mentioned above, claire falkenberg and wanderlust.

dungeon meat is the new label and production outfit brought to you by dungeon masters brawther and tristan da cunha. packing a serious punch, its aim is to present tracks designed specifically to rock the party and shake the sound system. originally conceived as a platform for their own musical visions it soon became apparent that they would have to open the doors to a select few who shared their ambition to make no messing, hard hitting house grooves. one of these artists is the mysterious blunt instruments who has the honour of kicking off the label. after road testing his huge club hammer hold back brawther and da cunha knew it had to be on dungeon meat as it epitomised exactly the sound they wanted to present. hold back has been a firm fixture in their sets and even got cut to dubplate by jeremy underground paris. its not all about the a-side though as blunt instruments craft 2 other killer club cuts for the flip side we wont go on too much trying to describe how good this ep is ... instead well let the music do the talking
