Today’s premiere comes from what may well be the last Alexvnder release, as the producer prepares to retire the moniker and move on to other projects. He’s prepared a more than appropriate swansong though, with a full length LP of liquid delights for Glitch Audio, and we’re extremely pleased to have the exclusive on LP opener Holding You! Channelling the influence of acts like Seba and Blu Mar Ten into a beautiful roller led by piano and jungle-tinged breaks, this one is sultry, sublime and smooth as butter. Look for the release coming August 30th at all the usual stores…
Talkre delivers a rather exceptional EP for Dispatch early next month, and we’re hyped to have an exclusive for you today! Definitely the EP’s softest track, but still displaying the majestic synth work which characterises the release as a whole, Colours is a sublime, sensual roller with a laid-back vibe; sci-fi liquid a-la classics like Chris SU’s Solaris. Look for the EP coming Sep 9th, be sure to buy direct to get Colours too as it’s a Dispatch Store exclusive.
ZeroZero team up with regular collaborator Teknian for today’s premiere, delivering a stomping slice of neurofunk badness…epic sound design on the intro gives way to a helter-skelter assault of breakbeats and warped bass. Dangerous vibe! Hit up their Bandcamp to grab this one on a “pay what you want” basis right now.
Monika lands on None60 with more of deep, rolling, hypnotic style…one of our favourite producers continuing to deliver the goods! Hit up their Bandcamp to grab this from tomorrow.
Following an exceptional debut release earlier this year, Jaise is back on Subplate Recordings with another dark roller channelling the late 90s techstep sound. The influence of acts like Ed Rush & Optical on the sound is undeniable, but don’t dismiss this as mere copycatting; this is a love letter to a forgotten sound, brought bang up to date for 2019. Look out for the release coming Aug 30th at all the usual outlets.
Weather in the UK is pretty miserable right now so why not forget the rain and get swept up in today’s premiere; pure sunshine roller vibes from Deeper South! Look for this coming Aug 16th on RSTLSSNSS.
Quentin Hiatus, Thomas B and Ghast return with their occasional collab alias Onism Qi this month and they’ve got a host of treats coming via Translation Recordings. ’96 Dreamer is their ode to the classic sounds of early rave music, building suspense with ethereal synth work on the intro before dropping into an electrifying assault of chopped amens and rave stabs. Massive tune! Look for this one coming Aug 16th at all good digital stores…
Our latest mix guest is an artist we’ve admired for some time now; hailing from Hawaii and a regular contributor of releases to Detached Audio, we’re excited to welcome Option to the Dojo decks! As you’d expect from the man’s productions, the focus here is on soulful liquid rollers and emotional drum and bass, and we think you’ll agree it delivers in spades. Check it out, and keep your ears peeled for some unreleased music from the man himself.
As always you can check out the mix via Soundcloud below or head to Youtube or iTunes to stream. You can also grab a download from Google Drive.
Distrikt steps into our premiere spotlight today with a heavyweight slab of tech darkness. Coming soon to Dispatch LTD alongside a collab with Akkrid, this one has some serious punch, with booming sub and stabbing kick drums punctuating the sparse, ominous soundscape. Look out for the release coming Aug 12th at all the usual stores…
