Various Artists: A Fiction Universe (EP Stream)

On 4th November Dutch imprint Taped Artifact will inaugurate their debut VA compilation, which we’re no short of excited to share with you in full. The four-track ‘A Fiction Universe‘ gathers contributions from Allergy Season’s Physical Therapy, Italian duo Hiver, Arnemann and Elmer – the techno project of Bepotel members Sagat and Walrus.

Peggy Gou talks up ‘Seek For Maktoop’

Peggy Gou’s new EP on Technicolour shows off a sharp Detroit house charisma through straight-up sensuous house rollers, and should winningly validate the seriousness of Peggy’s endeavour. We caught up between two flights and tried to find out more about her impressive rise to prominence.

Nautiluss: Reflections EP

Nautiluss makes his debut on Ghostly International’s Spectral Sound imprint. Expertly constructed, the word “solid” is not strong enough to cover it.

Flaty: New Suggestions (Album Stream)

Named “New Suggestions”, the St. Petersburg force is joined by Gost favourites OL and Lapti, as well as John’s Kingdom head honcho Buttechno among others. And while many of the records these artists are associated with are rooted in more functional house and techno, much of the music on this album isn’t anchored to any conventional beat.

Mind Lotion: Altitude Attitudes

As Fantastic Man, Superconscious Records boss Mic Newman got us used to hi-NRG blends of organic, exotica-infused boogie and straight-up jacking rhythms. Under his Mind Lotion moniker, it’s a feast of chimey inflections and vaporous flute lines that unfurls, matching the intoxicating feel of the summits with the horizontal quietness of a shimmering seaway.

Premiere: Asymmetrical – Banging In The Haze

Asymmetrical ‘Banging In The Haze‘ is a dusty jam brimming with raw hi-hats twirling along acidic synths. Marking the transition from a busy night to the caressing light of dawn, a celestial and smooth melody takes over darkness and deploys its wings towards welcoming lo-fi house lands; still exuding a metallic aftertaste of down-pitched breaks, muffled drums and magnetic bleeps.
