Premiere: Leafar Legov – Cenote

With ’Cenote’ Leafar Legov doesn’t stray far from his comfort zone. Decking out an hypnotic roll of chiselled percussions within visually-evocative nature-scapes as seesawing synth accents and dubby ripples instill a further languid touch to the solemn profoundness of Legov’s production.

Premiere: Evitceles – Thrown

Fresh off his debut release on US tape label Cloud Bank, Bulgarian producer Evitceles strikes a second time with ‘Risingvanity’ for Cologne’s Noorden, a well fine piece of understated techno flirting with the inmost depths of ambient music.

Premiere: Physical Therapy – Spasm

Our premiere ‘Spasm’ contorts to the brutal onrush of a shadow-cruising predator bass and off-key synth switchbacks as a flock of bruising snares, smacking claps and clinky hi-hats drive the track into a chaos-inducing furnace. Physical Therapy has rarely sported his name so aptly.

Premiere: Leonardo Martelli – Il Registro

Menacing like JAWS’ main theme at first – a sinister bass strumming in a desperately shark-less ocean, ‘Il Registro’ offers what certainly counts as one of Leonardo Martelli’s most compelling slabs to date, combining the immersive impact of wistful pads with the galvanic crunch of a stealth breakbeat lilt. Straight up killer.

Premiere: Roger 23 – L o w. Reshape

To say this release is enigmatic would be saying too little; it’s pretty much what The Zenker Brothers are describing it as: “exotic pungent basement rebellion.” We couldn’t agree more, fellas. Check out Roger 23 “L o w Reshape” – our pick from this release as a perfect preview as to what awaits you.

Premiere: Monogenic – Binz

Inaugurated with a debut EP from label mastermind Adryiano in the early days of 2016, Cologne-based imprint CESTRAW is about to make a splash with its second instalment ‘Quite Good Tracks Vol.1’, a four-track compilation featuring contributions from Monogenic, Kastil, D.J. Shmugs and Adryiano himself.

Premiere: Marcel Fengler – Shitau

Marcel Fengler have picked a better EP to make a statement with, with every track giving you the “yes mate” pursed lips and dimpled chin. While singling out a sole track for premiere was an unenviable task, the emotional weeping synths of ‘Shitau’ nudged it just ahead of the competition.

Premiere: Troy Gunner – Bottle Bang

As Troy Gunner’s new single is about to hit the shelves via Boom Ting Recordings, we’re glad to present the slugging flip-side ‘Bottle Bang‘. This one’s going to hover in your mind like a bird of prey and trust us, it’s not about to let loose on you.
