después de la muerte (after the death in spanish) is an ep of four cuts of the barcelonian producer headbirds and the first release in vinyl of the ochomel label.

on the a side, the tracks have a dub scene with deep house influences of minimalist cut and sub basses at very low frequencies, with flashes of light in their arrangements.

on the b side, the first track is a flow of increasing energy, a melodic passage with a cosmic air and a deep bass drum. the second cut is a beautiful piece of art, a story of 5 minutes of deep melancholic sensation with an intense riff, a techno flavor of the 90s.

we have a great collaboration album from unam zetineb and soolee distributed each original tracks and remixes. interpolate is produced by spanish techno producer unam zetineb which has chocking bass energy and gentle but harsh beats. another track tense is produced soolee, label head from south korea. it has highly tensed electric loops with pounding drum. each remixes are also showing different color of original mixes.
supported by developer, spencer, slam, bas mooy, joachim spieth, claudio prc, kr!z, secludes, subjected, flug and many more.

twelve minutes of blissful melody, hypnotic drums and quaking bass, in florian meyerãs fresh mix-up of west african polyrhythms with the sensibilities of classic us minimalism. jordan gcz from juju & jordash edges his remix into the outlands of free jazz, with pulsating bass drum and spiritual synths, like terrence dixon beaming down from saturn.

b-stock! cover with seam split. vinyl unaffected & mint. 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.

originally recorded in the late 1970s
