SZCH: Learning To Cope

A key element of on-the-rise Croatian collective and label low income $quad, SZCH gained further exposure last year with the drop of his fantastic ‘Untitled’ EP on Ron Wilson’s 777 sub-label LLL – notably charted by the ever choosy and discerning Objekt. Busy as ever, Filip strikes back with a shape-shifting funky four-tracker for UK based imprint Departures. Lush as it gets.

Solitary Dancer: Dualism

Montreal duo Solitary Dancer return with a vengeance on the continually gratifying Dark Entries, giving full vent to their sleek and sensual blends of cold wave-imbued synth melodies, neo noir ambiences and fast-flowing electro dynamics over three plus one full-on floor burners of the finest standards.

Tom Demac: Sink Or Swim

Walking the line of techno and deep house notoriously, Tom Demac’s array of production can go from the soulful grooves and melody that turn a dusty warehouse into saving Grace, but more importantly he’s got the rare capacity to flip the script, energizing crammed rooms into blissful mania. Hype man ting wha wha.

Rebellion in Music: Galaxian talks up his new EP for Foul-Up

Eager to find out more about Galaxian’s unique vision and new Blowback EP on Foul-Up, we sat back with Glasgow-based producer Mark Kastner to discuss his views on politics and society, art of secretiveness and how music can change things from within. Stream the breaks-heavy ‘Forget About It’ within.

Piezo: Lume EP

Milan born-and-raised producer Piezo – who unsurprisingly lived a few years in Bristol before returning to Italy – steps up with the motley ‘Lume EP’, a three-track plate where Kowton’s pared-down structural formula meets the shuffling grind of vaporous deep house and borderline abstractness of dubby riddims and drone’y meanderings.

Objekt: Objekt #4

Both tracks introduce themselves eagerly, like a knock at the door followed by “can you come out and play?” In response, you can’t help but hurriedly pull on a pair of trainers and fly outside with laces flapping in the wind.

Sordid Sound System : Fear Eats The Soul

Green Door Studio co-owner and engineer, Stuart Evans, resurfaces his Sordid Sound System moniker for another belter of an EP via Glasgow based Invisible Inc. ‘Fear Eats the Soul’ takes us on a global trip as a concept EP made of “four imaginary bands from Detroit, New York, Paris and Munich”. And the results are as rich in history as they are a satisfying listen.

Views: Godspeed Dancefloor

‘Godspeed Dancefloor’ is infectious. From the off, it is pure dopamine and far from an MSG laden guilty indulgence. January has been dry in many regards but we have the first big hitter of the year right here. Don’t let it slip under your radar.
