nyra continues to shine on his own canoe label, making the most of the creative freedom to show every side of his musicality. -take my hand- deserves to be huge, displaying a devilish instinct for a simple disco loop, a powerful vocal and a whiff of fist shaking new york house pressure that will leave its mark long after the club kicks out. -life is trippy- switches stance entirely with a snappy boogie-indebted jam for lighter moments. -on & on- meanwhile summons a rowdy detroit techno backbone that, paired with the bold disco licks, calls to mind the kind of fare dj bone can so expertly drop. -falling for love- maintains the fusion of rough and smooth with equally brilliant, party-starting results.

flashin mix between techno , acid and house / disco

canoe 004, nyra is back wearing nothing but swimming trunks, don t paddle about, jump and shout.

row row row your boat gently up the stream, nyra back on the oars for canoe 005, heave-ho.

the limited, hand-stamped presentation of the canoe releases matches the music contained within, all grainy and unusual but utterly tooled up for the club. nyra s pet project is providing a fascinating insight into the make up of this ever emerging artist, and tracks like -opening rhyme- are sure to pique interest from all kinds of adventurous spinners. while the track may start in a kind of looped up deep house headspace, after the breakdown it takes an unexpected, thrilling swerve into twitchy acid. -tape trek- is more overt in its surreality with its layers of pitched speech getting run through the mill and splashed over a primal drum machine beat. -galaktik- meanwhile has a touch of old skool rave about it, but it s far from an obvious throwback track. suffice it to say, we ll have whatever nyra s having.

canoe is the new label from nyra that finds him indulging his personal musical preferences while still retaining his club-ready tendencies already established on labels such as never learnt, elastic dreams and more. for the second canoe release noface has been invited along to deliver the a-side track, and it s a killer slice of jazz-laced bumping house replete with sax and vibes. where -young larry- plays things fast and loose, nyra s -sisco visco- on the b-side is an unabashed disco burner with a tight-as-you-like beat and plenty of filter-swept samples to keep the party sizzling.

the canoe label comes to life with some rough and ready cuts for the wilder kind of dance, courtesy of nyra s gritty studio approach. having previously been found on the likes of never learnt, elastic dreams and more besides, there s no doubt the plucky producer has experience in the field, and the diversity of the styles on canoe 001 is testament to that. -d.a.t- is a stripped down machine workout that keeps things punchy and urgent throughout. -save lite- meanwhile is a wound-up, bleepy techno number with soul, and then -rexperiance- aims for the rave jugular with a stab-tastic lead and some crunchy breaks.

bristols elastic dreams present its third release, with label owner a sagittariun taking a back seat on this one and introducing sheffield based dj/producer, nyra, to the fold. hot off the heels of his ep for never learnt, nyra keeps on track with two new cuts of basement techno and deep, murky dancefloor tracks. the release is bolstered by a remix from skudge on lead track >uno 10<. skudge really need no introduction, but to the uninitiated, the swedish duo have been plying their simple, raw yet powerful sound since 2009 with releases and remixes for echocord, drumcode, fear of flying, rush hour and of course their own skudge imprint.

smack goes funky with this new 12inch by evans & nyra feat scm and more chicago influenced remix by label head steve mac

incl. rmxs by hugo & dragosh !! over the past few years the pair have been building a reputation on the leeds club circuit for their dj skills. their first forays in the studio saw them produce the single tongue , which once picked up on by lawler, went on to be a regular in his sets and a catalyst in his decision to get the guys aboard the good ship viva. their take on the jack ep, cemented that decision and the label head now gives them the chance to truly present themselves to the world with this debut release. opening track osasuna see s the duo create a wonderful percussive track. built around a deep sax melody that will have the floor grooving. superb drum programming, with lashings of bongo work, make this a perfect opener to the e.p. and one that will easily make its mark in the current, refreshing, house sound... who better to remix osasuna than lawler s most recently unearthed diamond, romanian dragosh. ..

elastic dreams, a new label for 2011, bringing out no-hype, no bullshit, deep and warm electronics. music for the mind, as well as the feet, expect to hear techno, ambient, new-beat and other frequencies over coming releases with music coming from nyra, skudge, md2 and a sagittariun. debut release here from a sagittariun, with remixes from md2 aka mike dehnert. a sagittariun looks up to the constellations to bring the first release on elastic dreams the circle stops somewhere is a simple groove with a sweet and melodious synth riff that comes alive throughout the track, some have made comparisions to ames classic rej, whilst not really in that league, circle maintains the dynamic pace with powerful 909 patterns whilst keeping a nice warm analogue vibe. telepathic heights is a brooding, percussive experience with a growling bass riff and enveloping keys with sci-fi elements to its composition. md2 (aka mike dehnert/fachwerk) comes good on the remixes on the flip side. his mello mix is a disjointed and muscular groove that rips apart the original synth riff, and bends and warps it over solid md2 beats to make a real low-slung funky workout. md2s hard mix does what it says on the tin, a relentless bass booming groove and spongy use of the originals samples, this is md2 at his very best!
