Baleine 3000: The Nap
This EP – or whatever you want to call it – is indicative of Vlek’s deconstructive/reconstructive spirit. The Nap is a product fusing just about every beloved vinyl-based format: Its 7 tracks gives the sense of an LP, the 20-minute duration suggests otherwise, and an 8-minute track on the entirety of the B side whiffs strongly of a 12” single.
Yves Tumor: Serpent Music
Serpent Music, the new album by Mykki Banco associate Yves Tumor, may only feature lyrics on a few of its tracks, but it somehow manages to convey a painfully vivid narrative. A diverse collage of sound that lurches from meditative to viscerally evocative.
Major Problems
Former resident at Dublin’s reputed nightclub Twisted Pepper and not-to-miss three-day event Out To Lunch, Barry Redsetta also captains the excellent Major Problems. With a stunning self-titled debut from on-the-rise local producer DJ Après Ski on the horizon, Barry steps up with a polyamorous combine of ganjah-flavoured grooves, Afro-folk polyrhythms and fruity disco nectars. Lock in!

Premiere: rkss ‘Load’
“Cutoff EP” presents perhaps the warmest, most direct sounds yet heard from the London based artist. Its combination of glowing reverb soaked pads, housey kicks and twisted electronic detritus coming across like Wolfgang Voigt played through a futurist filter.
Mixtape: Charles Drakeford
With FTD’s new instalment – Georgia’s high-in-vitamin ‘Import Fruit’ – freshly out in all good record stores, we took the chance to discuss label evolution, visual identity and recent favourites with bossman Charles Drakeford as he selects some of the tracks that played a significant role in his musical growth.
Premiere: Mono-Enzyme 307 – Inner Skill
Effusive acid heater ‘Inner Skill’ roots deep into off-kilter psychotropic grounds. Interlocking helter-skelter 303 lines with screeching keyboards gone astray, it’s a frantic safari ride across a lost mystic jungle ; colours and shapes flickering dangerously as the rhythm revs up and totemic percussions hammer out a fierce archaic pulse. Savage.
Convextion: 2845
Just as its retro science fiction cover art suggests, “2845” is all about timeless space music. Convextion’s first LP in a decade is the soundscape of a journey through the final frontier, and one that highlights Gerard Hanson’s effortless blending of organic and mechanic sounds from above.
Betonkust & Palmbomen II talk up “Hotel Breukelen”
