lithuanian based label sodai started its journey in 2016, making it a label still in its infancy but making a big impression. owned by artist gardens of god, who started the label to create his own no limits platform for his experimental sounds and projects. while at the same time a platform to give other artists the chance to also have freedom with art and music. with releases from raxon, few nolder and alex krell under their belt, they can announce the exciting debut from uk producer third son this april. ive been an admirer of gardens of gods music for a long time, when he asked me if i could do something for his imprint, i was more than thrilled! adds joseph. syncopes synths spread far and wide, making this a journey of a track, modulating and panning in and out, pushing and pulling along a percussive drive. his broad musical range can be felt in this mix, with its slightly hypnotic tones. irony has a punctuated low end, which creates a deep and dark groove. the synthetic elements in this track gain in attitude, on top of ambient pads, leading nicely into bach to close out the release. its driving and determined bass makes the backbone of the track, with a modulating hook line, along building and expanding frequency ranges. the whole package makes for a very strong first release from third son, and sodai are excited to be welcoming him to the family.

third son made his name synomynous to dancefloor techouse bombs! here is the proof!

techno in the classic british tradition of surgeon, christian vogel, regis to name a few. simply put, beautiful, other-worldly, hypnotic, brilliantly functional. sam watson is virtually unknown outside the freerotation festival cognoscenti, where he is a resident, and his dj sets are legendary. this ep for third ear marks the start of a concerted effort by sam to put his name out there by releasing his tracks. chec

following 2014 s well received album for third ear under his :brownstudy alias, life well lived , jason hogans steps away from the mic to focus on an lp of flawless instrumentals. returning to production under his own name for the first time since carl craig s planet e label released his album peter and the rooster in 1998, the age of scrap belies its title to instead deliver a forward thinking record rooted in classic detroit, fused with futurist sonics and dope beats. hogans seamlessly combines strains of house, jazz and hip hop, as well as the futurist bass pioneered by the likes of la s brainfeeder collective, throughout seven perfectly formed musical excursions. tip.

expectedly powerful three tracker from the belgian sons of tiki who are slowly shifting their sound to a little more subtle but yet driving direction.

underground hero ld nero debuts on the debut of the anything-goes outfit misfit melodies. tried and tested nero deepness melts with his rave alter ego and beloved non-conformity. a more traditional deep house approach is featured on the flip with a gerd janson & lopazz remix, while the blue-eyed dub reggae take of bad cop bad cop serves as the digestive.

sheer beauty coming once again from kirk degiorgios art label, made by the third man and remixed by vince watson.

producer toby leeming is making quite a name for himself. after a year of sowing the seeds on the underground, this london-based artist makes his first high profile release on arts newly formed dance division series. >messier 66< contains all the classic elements of pure dancefloor techno. driving ur style beats merge with basic channel chord delays - all underpinned by a menacing acid line. techno doesnt get any more sci-fi than the alien soundscapes of >anadine< - its classic detroit-inspired string stabs and abstract vocal washes are highlights of a frantic, scattering track that will keep the feet busy on the dancefloor. >paucity< ends this no-filler ep with its majestic, sweeping pads and uplifting melodies. the beats are still tough and relentless - making a perfect finale to the second release on arts dance division series.

playing and singing together since their school days in west sussex, smoke fairies (jessica davies & katherine blamire) create ethereal, dark and haunting left of center folk and blues songs wrapped in beautiful harmonies with the occasional psychedelic flourish. following an ep and two singles, they now release their first for third man records. the songs gastown and the river song were produced by jack white (white stripes / dead weather)!

ricardo jefferson is a producer and dj based in manchester, england. the four tracks on this ep demonstrate a distinctive style. the roots of his sound are in funk, disco, space rock, prog rock, but he has melded them into a sound that is more than just the sum of these elements. this is funky, bass-heavy, trippy techno for the dance floor. a1 a brutal truth. this is a big tune that builds relentlessly. the track has an inclusive, celebrational, feel which simply invites everyone to lose it on the dance floor. 124bpm. a2 persons unknown. this tune doesn t have the relentless build of a brutal truth. instead, this is a tune to drop when everyone on the dancefloor is in the zone and locked into the groove. a finely crafted trip created with multiple delays skittering around the sound field, anchored by the funky bass heavy groove. 123 bpm. b1 the egg part one. a track employing a tight kick drum of differing weights to propel the groove, overlayed with a circular keyboard motif. on the off-beat, add the processed sound of someone hitting a metal sheet, and viola! - one aggressively funky dance floor bomb! 123 bpm. b2 god of the machine. this track has a simple 4x4 kick and handclap pattern pinning down a delicious oscillating bass line, under a classic descending four chord circular chord progression. off kilter ride cymbals give the track its backbone, and fluidity. ricocheting handclap delays add dimension. sly stone would be proud of this groove. now get on the dance floor and strut your stuff! 119 bpm. the cover shows a still image from the music video a brutal truth directed by ricardo jefferson and laura lee.

"aka joris voorn. two reasons to get back into shape is a warm melodious symphony of sounds encased in a contagious techno coating. hans wolters is the real name of another talented dutch producer; dj hansz. he has already released numerous slammers on highland beats and its subsidiaries and funks up first reason with style"

scissor kick bietet sorgfältige introspektion, experimentierfreude und eine reichhaltige konzeptionelle entwicklung. die beatlosen zwischenspiele und ausgedehnten klangwelten, die auf früheren veröffentlichungen hervorstachen, sind hier voll und ganz zu hören. es ist klaustrophobisch, aber der raum wird an den richtigen stellen gefunden, spannung und entspannung bis zum letzten grad, ohne jemals zu einem trott zu werden. die perkussion bleibt, aber verlangsamt auf ein kriechen.
