jexy is getting all up close and personal on his new hi-fi house release. featuring the canadian and singer pal isha d on vocals, -human emotion- is a love song that doubles as a call to disconnect and find real love. netflix and chill? how about just chill! meanwhile, the lounge vibe is strengthened on the sophisticated -botanico,- while on -fifth wind,- jexy channels some trip-jazz with a slow breaks drum pattern. the ep is rounded out by -infinity room,- a melodic groover that should please fans of jex s earlier work. recommended!!

decks tipp!!
jexy brings you two radically new versions of -first stomp,- the voodoo-chanting-mutant-disco smasher from his new lp -ravines.- crafted with care by the man himself, the a-side features the nyc mix--a deep n dubby latin house-influenced builder. on the flip, jex ups the tempo, the vocal quotient and the 707 snap for a tropical disco singalong.

jex opolis presents ravines, a nine-track collection of music for all seasons. the record is a hopeful exploration of melody and atmosphere, and the title is a nod jexs childhood expeditions in the woods of rural canada. coming on good timin in april 2017.

frankfurt based producer, dj and music lover martin heimann presents his debut single salto on carry on 008. remaining faithful to its name, the small label puts out another piece of limited wax every once in a long while. enrooted in the soundscapes of 80s proto house the original version of salto is a thriving piece of octave liberation. consistent changes between harmonics break up the repetitive structure, while fm pads and the 303 are performing a little duet. the release is ennobled by two proper remixes from moon b (peoples potential unlimited) and jex opolis (good timin). while moon b keeps it bubblin’ with some extra analogue funk bounce and subtle italo dance floor energy, the b-side is jexi-fied with some embellishment to the cords, change in the bassline and a nice 808 snap. on top mr. opolis adds some mysterious but cheesy vocals samples that match perfect with the moody 80s orchestral stabs.

the last time we heard from jex, he was cruising dance floors with his 2015 slapper -studio e- on running back. three years later, jex returns with -bad timin vol. 1,- a four-tracker made for working djs on the newly christened bad timin label. ranging from the scorched-earth acid of -zone phased- to the melancholic deep of -fee wifi,- the ep has something for everyone--well, everyone who likes hanging out at dance clubs, that is!

french producer jules etienne reappears with a 3 track ep including a jex opolis remix on barcelona s finest disco imprint apersonal music. jules shows his most elaborated work to date evolving to a more band oriented production filled with plenty of live instruments and vocals as seen on free as a man and dont want to talk about it. on the b side rhythm for the garden part i is a mad ride driven by live percussions and a drum machine. canadian producer jex opolis whos been releasing top stuff through his own good timin label comes on board on the release remixing free as a man. guilty pleasures all around

let s face it, summer in new york city is sweltering. even with all the windows open and fans on high, it is hard to find refuge in alliance upholstery s chinatown offices. today s sweat though, is due to the -dancer on the shore- ep, the latest release by the brooklyn based band, lemonade (cascine/true panther sounds). -dancer- is a subdued summertime collage of steel drums, buoyant electronic pads and windswept vocals. joined by dee dee from dum dum girls, it is a celebration of the space where humans and nature exist in harmony. originally released digitally as a single on cascine in 2015, the band created a dj friendly extended mix for this release. if you have been to the -air a dancer- party over the last few seasons, you have likely already heard it (sometimes twice in one night!).

transmitting from new york (via toronto), jex aka jex opolis has so far been known as the man behind and in front of the good timin label. infamous for its boogie burner bombs to quote discogs member kutter karlo jex, trades his label for running back and a shifts the gear. up with the tempo and down with the lights, there still is a variety of styles. studio e is named after an after hours spot in edmonton that the record s author partied at in the early 2000s, also sounds like something ivan smagghe would have enjoyed at that point in time. laxmi tool is referencing classic tribal house and a street in pune, where jex wifes grandma bought the drum used in this track. on the flip, harpa brags and boasts with its trampoline bass line, while la casa surfs some timpani waves.

2010 repress! mark hawkins is in the vanguard of the new wave of new wave uk techno. beginning his career in 1999 with a split ep with michael forshaw on the latters much loved chan n mikes label, hawkins was soon noticed by saskia slegers (aka miss djax) for whom he has now recorded 6 eps on her well known djax up beats imprint. he has also released on, amongst others, pro-jex, mosquito and hörspielmusik.. and now, here comes the next release by mark hawkins to the lablestart from kitty corner !!
