k15 returns to wotnot after more killer releases on eglo & wild oats, a collaboration with henry wu, and remixes for nubya garcia, colm k (on tiffs joints) and wotnot s own william florelle, not to mention the beautiful record earlier this year under his culross close alias. we re all creative but somehow, being creative has become a class within itself, often defined and measured by the whims of popular culture and monetary gain, which leads us to devalue what we create if we are not successful by those metrics. we are all creative, we all use our experience, talent and feeling to shape and we should be glad we create anything. this ep holds onto this mantra tightly throughout, reflecting both the meditative and joyful effects of unimpeded creativity. the title track begins with k15s signature introspection, deep washes of jazz-inflected textures before exploding into a rapturous syncopated synth groove. b1 communion explores the spiritual angle with a devotional piano cadence over bouncing drum pattern, with interlocking bass and synth rhythms adding to the hypnotic mood. wrapping up the release is a warm, deep-soak hip hop instrumental titled you re alive (theres still time), a message to self but also a beacon of hope to those who have maybe not created as much as they would have liked, or have strayed from the path the intended to take.

swinging latin house grooves, fast paced broken beat and some serious low end frequencies! north londons k15 returns to eglo records following on from his stellar outing alongside henry wu as wu15. we re excited to have him back on fresh eglo wax with these two heaters. dedicated to the sun and ready for the dance!

wild oats is proud to present speed of life, a new record from london based producer k15. this 6 track double ep explores the idea of the sense of urgency that life can have depending on the frame of mind one is in. we encourage you take time to do some inner exploration to understand what the best use of your energy is in order to have the most harmonious experience you can have in your life. having a good balanced life starts with the physical and mental state you are in. what we consume on all levels whether orally, visually, sonically or tactilely influences how we think, feel, and react to our environment. this record is the perfect re-calibration tool using vibration to get your mind, body, and soul back into a balanced state. all the while, having a wonderful listening experience that will warm your heart, put a smile on your face, and make you dance.

over the years, lo recordings has taken pride in exploring a wide and broad range of sounds, genres and styles. to mark 20 years of lo recordings, we are taking a fresh and bold approach with our output to further explore the accelerating and refined developments in electronic music today. this is the first of our new phase of releases, a collaborative project between the two titans mr. g and k15. ‘a learning curve’ is exactly as the title suggests, an educational experience to un- derstand each other musically and technically, and to explore new territories and schools of thought. as avid users and fans of the mpc, as well as being extremely busy, both mr. g and k15 were given the same samples dug out of the lo recordings archives to each create a track which would remotely display their techniques and methods. this was quick- ly adopted to be the theme in a series of three releases to come out throughout the year from the pair. the results come in the form of mr. g’s mesmerising ‘navigate’ and k15’s introspective ‘the guilt within’, two very individual tracks in their own rights. ‘navigate’ is instantly recognisable as the work of its creator, armed and ready to bring the dance floor to hypnotic heights. with its rough and gritty sound, driving kick & synth stabs, and hauntingly majestic keys, we are thrown into peak of the night. on the flip, ‘the guilt within’ takes a turn to more ominous terri- tories, crafting an atmosphere on the other end of the spectrum to ‘navigate’. a beautiful and delicate journey carried along by light skipping percussion, immersive sweeping pads and a puls- ing sub which all come together to take the listener deep inside themselves.

long celebrated as a hub for new producers to showcase their talents, cdr return to the releasing game in partnership with dimensions festival. up and coming house heads k15 and fyi chris reportedly invited lismore and ben houghton to take part in this collaborative release, resulting in four tracks that wouldn t sound out of place soundtracking a balmy afternoon dance on the adriatic sea. oozing quality and soul throughout, there s a distinctly laid back flavour to the house on offer across this release, although fyi chris add a touch more bite with their grubby lo-fi synth lines on -sugar-.

2016 repress .. whether its making hypnotic head-nod heaters, or pulsating dance floor grooves, k15s music always radiates soul and promise. he has been in the music scene in london for a while, but is a bit of an unsung hero in our eyes. his skill of mixing genres is unmatched. pulling from different influences regardless of genre or era is what gives his music its distinct style. insecurities is k15s debut on wild oats a 5-track ep with sampled dancefloor classics, re-works, and original music.

repress 2016 , stop what you are doing right now, you have just found that record that stays with you all summer. the record to soundtrack the bbq, to gently raise the energy on a hazy evening, to baffle the midnight marauders into dancefloor destruction, to give the early morning ravers that extra kick. that one more song.

sound of speed japan is proud to present the latest release from london artist k15. whether its making hypnotic head-nod heaters, or pulsating dance floor grooves, k15s music always radiates soul and promise.

no room for air is the sister label to wild oats offering a fresh take on the soulful side of our interests exclusively in 7inch format. in hopes to explore different aspects of music, nrfa was created to showcase our favorite genre-defying artists in tandem with wild oats.

neroli celebrates its 20th birthday and 50th release with this wonderful compilation.

contemporary house merged with space-age jazz & broken beat from copenhagen newcomer nejrup on debut release manda backed by a uniquely off-kilter remix from london soul stalwart k15 (eglo / wild oats) manda is a selection of intricate compositions for the dancefloor with a jazz centered approach to combining dance grooves with modular soundscapes & live instrumentation. for nejrup, a self-learned synthhacker, pianist and producer from copenhagen, his debut manda is a result of years of experimentation and never-ending practice and noodling on his fender rhodes & homebuilt synth collection. delivering a compositional complexity influenced by radiohead and floating points, while letting his tunes simmer with airy synths and improvised live instrumentation combined with a love for depthful harmonies. k15 backs the release with a soothing, heavily syncopated remix, as only he could do it. the londoner, whose soulful touch and ear for melody has earned him high status in the jazz encompassing house- and broken beat circuit, through kyle hall’s ‘wild oats’ and alexander nut’s ‘eglo records’ and as center of the culross close outfit.

culross close follow up their 2016 debut album home with a potent offering entitled moments. the quartet (a moniker of k15) meld fusion and future grooves to create a captivating ride through some of their recordings. from the opening manifesto, the listener is thrust into a world of purpose and understanding. slow your stroll is where the record begins to unfold, as floating synths and percussion carry the groove. what follows next is the hypnotic inna trice, the rawest of all the recordings where snares and sincerity collide. the record closes with unison (a future groove if there ever was one), a number that showcases the quartet s ability to truly explore their momen

includes dj sprinkles remix of kuniyuki takahashis kalimas dance. also contains some killer k15 biz.

wotnot are proud to unveil another new exciting artist, songwriter/producer william florelle, who follows in the footsteps of previous debutantes like k15 (who features here), glenn astro, deft and many other now established (or quickly establishing) artists. the will flo project aims to deliver unique collaborations with each output, evolving to suit the combined inspiration of william and his collaborators. while he names a staggering variety of musical styles among his influences, this release takes the form of a highly swung, left-field r&b, with jazz and afro-beat influences. think 22a with more pronounced r&b flavours.

henry wu (aka kamaal williams of yussef kamaal) returns to eglo records following on from his joint ep with k15. deep in the mudd is a heavy weight 6 track ep which journeys through broken beat, house, hip hop and jazz. the previously released negotiate ft. simeon jones, which originally came out on eglo sister label hotep, gets a 2017 remix courtesy of the legendary kaidi tatham and uk funky og hardhouse banton joins wu on title track deep in the mudd and century. essential business, no messing about!

two cuts of futuristic laid back machine funk, channeling chunky juno keys, percussive rhythms and sweet flutters on the rhodes. backed up with a remix from k15, fresh from his work with henry wu and as culross close, who has retrofitted ‘hypnotise’ with a mesmerising 2-step groove and dubbed out 8-bit garage fx! lovingly pressed on 180g vinyl with sweet “crafty looking” hand stamped, labelled and numbered covers.

we re really excited to be able to put one of our favourite ever wotnot releases to wax. it s a release that makes us particularly proud as we convinced k15 to let one of his house tracks out of the archive for the first time ever, as well as securing one of the few tracks to have been heard from up-and-coming wunderkind glenn kelly (jeeks), before he retired early from the circuit. four years after it dropped digitally, featured artists k15 and imyrmind have become household names, releasing music with eglo, wild oats, tartelet and money $ex records among others. this re-release also includes a new track from sexruleseverything who also featured on the original release. the tracks on this ep still stand strong, and the vinyl drops alongside the release of dancefloor sweets vol. 2, with more to come in 2017.

in accord with wotnot s knack for nurturing talent, our first dancefloor sweets featured an early appearance from tartelet & money $ex artist imyrmind, and the first ever k15 house track! volume 2 continues in this vein with a new pick n mix bag of feel-good crowd-pleasers from evm128, body-san, danvers and galactic ganesh, while volume 1 also receives a long overdue (limited) press to vinyl, with a new added track from sexruleseverything.

henry wu + k15 = wu15. house, bruk, soul and hip hop. dont sweat the technique.
