new 12 inch from the bunker new york.

erol alkan welcomes joshua james to phantasy for his debut release coarse featuring the bunker ny producer justin cudmore on remix duties.

up next on phonica white is brooklyn based artist justin cudmore. he is a well-known dj thanks to his memorable sessions at the bunker among other new york and many of the best clubs worldwide as well as teaming up with mike servito and gunnar haslam as hot mix dj collective. as well as djing, justin has always been a fan and creator of dance music, he started being part of chicago’s underground scene, deepening his appreciation for the classic house and acid that you can still feel in these new tracks. this new release follows in the wake of ‘forget it’, his last celebrated ep released by the bunker though in our minds his sound has progressed yet again, sounding fuller, faster and rounder. ‘twisted love’ gets straight to the point, with firm and strong percussion joined to a fickle acid bass line. in addition to this, justin weaves in some house-flavoured vocals to keep you hooked until the end of the track. a certified floor-filler of a track. on the flip is ‘about to burst’, a track that starts with a powerful kick drum and grows with new emerging elements, punchy hi-hats coming and going in key moments and a simple keyboard arpeggio that added to an acid bass line catches you instantly. justin’s new ep is unapologetically aimed at the dancefloor. its primary influence may be detroit-flavoured techno yet you’ll also find chicago house and acid elements floating over its powerful backbone, all combining in devastating way, primed for club use. artwork as always is supplied by the talented pedro carvalho de almeida.

crystal is cudmores debut 12inch single. raw, rough and ready to rumble, crystal marries snaking acid lines and bouncy grooves to a sample from cult underground film classic the queen.on the flip is detroit-bred and bunker resident dj mike servitos 730 reshape, that gives the wiggly worm vibe harkening back to the early days of transmat, warp and the minimalism of dan bell s dbx project. l.i.e.s. mainstay gunnar haslam provides his dekalb avenue remix made while living in new york, a modular synth cruise with the top down. all tracks have been mastered and eqed for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley and labels are as pink as crystals lipstick.

started at the age of thirteen with a crate of his big brother s records, dj matpat was introduced to an eclectic mix of music that has influenced his take on house music. racking up releases from labels such as madhouse, exploited, plant music, w&o street tracks, as well as derrick carter s persnickety all stars label, dj matpat has now combined his passion for production and house music to form his own label entitled clubby boy. with the artistic stylings of his philly party club congress and a remix by the bunker artist justin cudmore, the first release its time! (produced by the clubby boy himself) can be seen as a call to action either for these current times or to lose yourself with-in the dance floor.

woke is tigas third release so far in 2017, and was recorded at montreals lost star studios before he returned to ibiza for the summer. he started this year with eye luv u (co-produced by one half of paranoid london), his first new material since 2016s blondes have more fun, and the track that marked his return to turbo recordings. april saw tiga vs audions nightclub ep, the third collaborative release from tiga and matthew dear, and the follow-up to their mega-hit lets go dancing and the micro-hit fever. the nightclub ep featured 3 new productions: stabbed in the back (lead track), pink bells, and nonstop, and picked up heavy support from jamie jones, the martinez brothers, boys noize, dubfire, kolsch, heidi, gerd janson, erol alkan, michael mayer, and more.

gunnar returns with scale no flam, his first 12inch single for the label. scale no flam is both a love letter and a demonstration of why he cant stop getting lost in the sound. according to gunnar, acid is just one of those things that creeps into your life and consumes everything around you - a psychedelic and textural approach to music that is simultaneously intense and smooth.
