Tribe is a record label created by like-minded artists from Barcelona, with a bold purpose of generating and sharing their idea of timeless electronic music. The debut EP Tribe01 comprises four different yet catchy and charismatic tunes that meet at the same point - the dance floor.

As you take off from the A side, you discover an audioreactive tune 'Inertia' - a creation of Baraso & Sonodab aka Barson. The track has a genuine ravy soul spiced with an acid touch and a memorable pad that will get stuck in your head.

As you continue exploring A side, you recognize the 1996 masterpiece 'Hamstrung' by Freddy Fresh aka Modulator, head of Analog Records USA. This exclusive re-edit made with Freddy's permission has a legendary groove of 90's and filtered hats that make a good party great.

Moving on to the B side, you meet a serious dance floor burner 'Chromatic Life' - a creation of Artes. The track is a travel towards the unknown depth of acid, house and techno sounds - a journey you want to make.

As you finish your sound voyage, you discover a phenomenal 'Gravitron' by a mastermind John Shima. The track breathes a melancholic tune, garnished with John's unique charisma: detroitish pads, acid elements, and a well-balanced groove that will hypnotize with its vibe.

Another Van, the label head of Ran Music’s sub-label Ran Groove, is releasing his debut EP “ The Night Is Yours” (RGV010-12) on his own label which includes 6 tracks rang-ing from Acid House to Minimal that he created between 2015-2017 in Beijing and Shanghai, performed and recorded all at once using his hardware live set-up. The immortal acid sound and minimalist groove are his forever loves. In 3 years the time, locations, and people kept changing, and all the memories of his life experiences are being mixed and melted into these 6 musical stories.

The EP name “The Night Is Yours” is inspired by a billboard which says “The World Is Yours” in the movie “Scarface”. Another Van believes that the night never belongs to anyone, the night is itself an eternal DJ, and this EP is full of tracks that touch you the most before sunrise.

Casting the net ever wider, Kalahari Oyster Cult have drawn in new music and a new artist for their latest release. Flora FM, a.k.a. Community Corporation a.k.a. T. Hawkins, has graced imprints such as Argot and Vanity and now debuts with Chaos Light. Trying to define the style of this sound weaver is a near impossible task, the gamut of electronics has been plundered to create this unique EP. From the aquatic hypnotics of 'Hallucinogenic Worm' and the hyperactive energy of 'Chrome Glass', Flora FM borrows from acid house, rave anthems and techno with a magpie like curiosity as he melts textures and tones like a master. Broken beats and rich xylophonic melodies coalesce in the bubbling 'Storm Cleaned' before the warm bath that is the Chicago hued 'Insist on You.' Chaos Light keeps you guessing until the very end, the erratic and frenzied reductions of beat and bass combining to form 'Inc Stop.' A youngster with the ear and ability of a seasoned veteran.

Limited edition of 303, no repress. Vinyl exklusive for 3 months
Asphalt Groover invites you to four tracks in Ragnar Ataris typical acid style. Playful and twisted, and sometimes with his characteristical pitched down vocals. Side A breaks the traditional four on the floor beat and welcomes a more funky breakbeat vibe, while side B contains more classical acid techno.
Knowing each other from the Swedish rave scene in the 1990s, Ragnar Atari and Otherland both have a fondness for old, dirty acid and barely working analog gear. Together they create dark and playful dance music, and perform energetic live sets.
Acid Lamour is a sub label for Lamour Records started in 2018 with a focus on techno and acid dedicated DJs. Releases are limited to 303 vinyls, no re-press.

It's time for the fourth excursion on Late Night Burners, this time filled with uptempo acid and breaks.

For the fourth release we've asked two talents for a side each. On the A-side we have the Parisian Col. J with two uptempo and soulful workouts. Classic drums, classic acid lines, but fresh as ever. On the B-side we have the Italian matteo. providing us with two rough and fast-paced cuts full of lush synth lines and breakbeats. T(r)ip!

Straight from the ghetto!

Denis Sulta's Silver Service imprint - an offshoot of Sulta Selects - present SSSS-3, a two-track collaborative package from the inimitable Hammer and Atlus, Denis' own darker alias.

Taking reign over the A-side, Belfast export Hammer brandishes a weighty dose of low-slung, swollen bass and disorienting vocal stabs on 'Dance Since'. Using a palette of cathartic 90s house vocals he morphs their energy into something far more twisted.

For the B-side, Atlus forges an equally hefty fusion of raw percussion and swirling vocals, spun round by a dizzying acid bass lead.

Wasting no time in heading straight to the dancefloor, SSSS3 sees two esteemed characters doing what they do best.

In 2019, the World is shaking... our man Too Smooth Christ, prolific & sensitive composer invite to expand your body and mind beyond with its new release Emogreen Thoughts EP.

Following on from 2018's 'Tribeca Tapes Part One' release, Willie Graf & his musical partner Darren Eboli deliver another fantastic 4 tracker on Copenhagen's Music For Dreams Label.

Willie Graff splits his year between DJ residencies in New York and Ibiza (Pacha). In this second outing with studio partner Darren Eboli, the influence is, African, NY clubbing, World mixing Mediterranean and further afield. The duo finds its roots in the past, building a link between the soul of a song and the warmth of a melody then combining them with a contemporary sound.

The opener 'All Is Bliss' sits at the pinnacle of the underground - A powerful, Balearic, disco influenced club track full of Spanish guitar, handclaps, club synths sounds like it was made for Dj Harvey's 'Mercury Rising' at Pikes in Ibiza. 'Ahimsa' is an outstanding track with funky breakbeat, weird Eastern samples, sneaking acid and Kraftwerk like arpeggios.

'La Sirena' is a balearic beach styled mid tempo chugger with chopped up breaks, deep sub-bass, Compass Point styled keys, whispering voices saying 'Let Your Mind Be Free'. If you are a Cafe Del Mar connoisseur and longing for that sunset moment 'Bellatrix' does the trick featuring bits of Spanish Guitar, Flute, Oboe and floating warm pads creating that early 90ties vibe. Another winner from Willie and Darren - and hopefully an album soon.

Berlin-based collective African Acid Is The Future inaugurates its new label partnership with The Vinyl Factory by releasing the first in a three-part 2×12 series Ambiance.

The first instalment, Ambiance I, captures two extraordinary live performances in Berlin, backed by remixes from AAITF members Dauwd and Wolfonacid on the second 12.

The live performances feature Kenyan dodo singer Ogoya Mengo & The Dodo Women, and the woman once described as Zimbabwe's mbira queen Stella Chiweshe. The former was recorded live in Romain's Azzaro apartment, while Chiweshe's performance was captured in front of an enraptured crowd at Berlin's iconic Funkhaus venue.

Phran returns to Best Effort with an incendiary array of dance floor heaters, transmogrifying his hypnotherapeutic impulses in some startlingly different ways.

Phran introduces his DJ Phidias persona on the A side of the 12', starting proceedings with 'Sisplau' and its darker complement, 'Diamantera' - two cuts of twitchy latin drum programming, dub delay flourishes and freaky synth lines that recall the acid-drenched deliriousness of Villalobos' cooked conga sessions. The pitched-down B-Boy rhythms of 'Dummy Text Generator' are a change of pace but are no less weird, setting an acrobatic, constantly contorting acid line over fizzing roland drums.

The B-side is fully submerged in murk - First on 'Fleurhaus' and then when versioned on 'Fleursky'. The former foregrounds the snappy drums and heavy bassline before seemingly drifting off into an abyss of echo, returning - albeit slightly - from the void on the ethereal 'Fleursky', where he's joined by constant co-conspirator Ivy Barkakati on a Casio SA-39 keyboard. Amplifying the beautiful spaciness of the original while retaining the bass pressure, it's a perfect implementation of dub's alchemical processes.

"Ciquita is the high point of a party distilled into 7 minutes of good-time genius; burbling 303, jittering percussion and hooting Latin House chants spiking the track like someone slung pills in the punch.

A very special 4-track limited EP from Marked Vinyl, we begin with 'Foundation', a subtle, deep, hypnotic groover with enough sub-movement you know it works as soon as it starts. Next up is 'Greenfield Funk', a late-night trip where varied synths and melodic keys decorate an unassuming unmissable bassline. The third track here is 'Gaiahuasca', where pumping synths break into an all-encompassing acid bassline, as the shamans of the Amazon don the caps and sneakers of the City. Lastly, we have 'Slime', a slice of freshest dub-techno in which spaced out analogue synths and rhythms meet the mother of all basslines before erupting into spine-tingling percussion. Packaged in original artwork, and limited to 200 pieces worldwide, 'Stargates EP' excels in quality content and variety, and signals the return with audio and visual treat from Marked Vinyl.

Dark Matters label head Amirali returns with the expertly crafted Odyssey EP, employing his vital understanding of
space and texture to construct a highly emotive release featuring a remix from Fort Romeau. The three track
package is out digitally on May 14th followed by the vinyl release a few weeks later.
Leading on from his critically acclaimed discography and curatorial work with the inimitable Dark Matters imprint,
Amirali enters 2018 with grand plans for the future. He is currently conceptualising a live stage show whilst
continuing to provide a platform for all manner of weird and wonderful music.
'Odyssey' is a striking example of Amirali's penchant for songwriting, as well as a testament to his sonic identity,
merging memorable harmonies with heartfelt vocals and complex soundscapes. 'Hidden Past' veers more towards
the dancefloor, brandishing vast sonic explorations and levitating pads amongst detailed drum patterns. For the
'Hidden Past' remix, Fort Romeau mutates the delicacy of the original into a spaced out dose of peak time house,
gradually building rich harmonies around a fierce rhythmic motif.
On the creation of this forthcoming EP, Amirali states:
"Nothing is more important than my craft which is the main reason I'm here. There's no better satisfaction than to
create an amazing piece of music, that's my happiest point in life. I don't want my work to just be good or ok and that
takes a lot of effort and sacrifice in life. I got to a point where I said to myself I have to go and disappear for a while,
go be normal and do normal things. Instead of being on the road all the time, stay home, create an environment I
like to write music. There have been many experimentations involved in my upcoming material. I wanted to try and
push myself to the limit and I believe I've succeeded. For me, it's all about evolving and exploring areas I haven't
touched. That's why sometimes it takes a bit longer than expected, I don't just want to meet people's expectations,
sometimes I want to blow them away. There is so much music coming out week in and week out, the music is
evidently becoming more disposable and I would like to stay out of that chaos. When you stay true to your heart and
try to do something different you put yourself in an uncomfortable situation, that's when you grow as an artist and
also as a person, but the satisfaction you get when you finish a work cannot be put into words.

'Following last year's release on NAFF, ANF hit the West Coast with four tracks of lush, trance-inducing digital bubblebaths on Pacific Rhythm. You might know this Montreal duo already: After lingering around under a different name, Dust-e-1 burst onto the scene last year with two 12-inches of blazing junglist workouts, while Priori has established himself as a keen collaborator, partnering with the likes of Project Pablo, RAMZi and Ex-Terrestrial. Their work together as ANF is some of their most distinctive, and on Mauna Kea the two producers explore the outer reaches of their sound, going on an expedition through pulsating acid lines, blood-rushing breakbeats and cosmic synths, with melodies that linger long after they're gone.

The title track is a sleek and slippery acid-flecked cut charged with hints of progressive house, while "State Function" looks back to the Sputnik missions of early '90s Biosphere, with floating breakbeats and space shuttle chatter. The other two cuts are primed for the chill-out room, the after-hours kickback or any place where there's a lava lamp and a beanbag chair, from the hand percussion-driven groove and celestial pads of "Mary Lynne" to the leisurely breakbeats of "Chi-Motion." All four tracks offer rich, space-age techno to take your dance floor somewhere in the past that feels like the future.'

Man Power's Me Me Me welcomes another close friend back to the fold, with a stellar single from Bristol's Christophe, backed with remixes from Paranoid London's Johnny Aux and regular label contributor Frank Butters.

Me Me Me is having a fine run of form in recent months, with outstanding releases from the likes of Ian Blevins, Austin Ato, Shit Robot & Man Power himself. Press and radio support from the likes of Mixmag, XLR8R, Resident Advisor, DJ Mag, BBC Radio 1 and BBC6 Music has been accompanied with rapturous DJ support from Andrew Weatherall to Ben UFO, DJ Harvey to Elton John! This latest chapter see Bristolian Christophe step up to the plate, a producer probably best known for his superb releases on Futureboogie, but who has also featured on Me Me Me, both as a remixer and contributor to last year's charity compilation.

His first full release on the imprint kicks off with the acid-fuelled, electro workout that is 'Rok The Hall'. Hypnotic squelch and skittering mid-tempo rhythms provide the perfect basis for a sleazed out vocal that is guaranteed to set dancefloors alight. The original is accompanied by a remix from Paranoid London's Johnny Aux, a producer who has previously reworked the likes of Tiga vs Boysnoize, Shit Robot & The Martinez Brothers. Here he dials up the vintage pads and takes things in a deeper, mesmerizing house direction.

The second of the originals is 'Like That', an altogether more bumping affair with an 80s acid house energy derived from its driving analogue funk and judicious sample use. The remix on this comes from Cult of Glamour producer Frank Butters who steers things into Moroder-esque territory with arpegiated bass and syncopated keys. The digital package also features an instrumental version of 'Rok The Hall' for those who want things a little stripped back.

This latest release from Christophe and Me Me Me is a superb future-retro offering that is guaranteed to keep dancefloors warm in 2019.

DABJ have taken flight with their first drop of 2019. And it's another fine selection of sonic warheads from Advanced Helicopter Commander Fear-E.

Anyone who has heard the DABJ crew play out over the last year will bound to have heard some of the fire from this. "Jump On The House Train" has been a staple in our club sets and mixes, and has to be one of the most asked about tracks we've had on rotation. All four tracks encapsulate the vibe of late night / early morn' Glasgow warehouse parties perfectly. Highly limited vinyl (with hand stamped labels and cool insert) release plus digital release.

Don't let this one evade your capture...

MODU:LAR Music is a new label project born from established Liverpool-based collective, which has now been running for five years. Promising to release straight-up party tracks made for the dancefloor, the label will showcase and expose emerging talents from it's home city and beyond.

First up is a debut four-track EP from Scouse duo, Danny Mc and James Hall a.k.a. UZU. 'The A1' fires off with a swinging, housey groove that's brought to life by danceable pads, kicks and hats, interweaving warm melodies across the duration of the opening track - before a sharp change of direction with 'The A2' sees the feeling head down a contrasting electro-tinged beat with percussive highlights coming through strongly once again, likely the product of Danny Mc's influence on this debut vinyl release as an accomplished musician and drummer.

On the reverse, 'The B1's glossy and sophisticated breakbeat core sweeps into warm synths and vocal constructions that put forward a real garage-like note that'll be a strong fit with different environments and play times. Rounding up the record is a punchy, driving roller that features complex electronic, spacey accents polished off finely by Jim Hall - a signature of both artists production style that'll become more and more evident in future work.

Erol Alkan returns to Phantasy with 'Spectrum' and 'Silver Echoes', his first original solo material in five years; two pure dancefloor cuts which perfectly embody Alkan's charismatic, psychedelia tinged and singular approach to DJing and production.

'Spectrum' opens with shattering live drums in the spirit of his celebrated band production work and culture as founder and resident of seminal London club, Trash, before his equally striking synthesis rises into the mix, building towards a pulsing, blissful acid house reveal. Maintaining an irresistible rhythm, Alkan interweaves between tension and release, physical raw percussion and driving analogue modulation.

On 'Silver Echoes', Alkan bridges melancholia with the natural euphoria at the heart of some of his finest reworks and productions to stunning effect. Diving immediately into the heart of a powerful melody that gradually flourishes, the track unfolds waves of blissful electro, each revealing subtle details.

A perfect summation of both past and contemporary influences, as well as a lifelong open-minded stance, 'Spectrum' and 'Silver Echoes', each capture a side of Alkan's always-evolving energy and technique, mixing his studio prowess with a timeless instinct rooted within the communal potential of the dance floor.

Prolific Manchester producer, Jozef K's forthcoming release, Dawn Of A New Era, showcases Afro Acid's introspective side, with a series of post-apocalyptic, shimmering acid landscapes - which are sequenced, notably, as a complete work.

After a slew of signings to some of the biggest labels in house and techno we are proud to present this ethereal record from Jozef.

The EP begins with 'I Felt A Presence', a both heartfelt & dystopian 303 cut containing an atmospheric vocal that alternates between undefined parameters.

'Between Two Worlds', Jozef's acidic ode to Twin Peaks/David Lynch, portrays an intricate interplay between dark and light, (which is an underlying theme of the show for non-TP fans).

There are also further meanings Mr. K wanted the listener to discover for themselves, a very Lynchian concept indeed.

Track 3 is the dreamy and pensive 'Agkistrodon Contortix'. Another shimmering sci-fi 303 cut.

The EP's title track would seem to be the EP's euphoric peak. A continuation of the isolated, sci-fi-esque 303 based introspection here.

Part two of the Acid Saga "Signs of Decay" from SolarOneMusic. First part featured tracks by Helena Hauff, The Exaltics, Ekman, Drvg Cvltvre and Perseus Traxx. This part comes with The Hacker, Legowelt, Chris Moss Acid, Impakt and Crotaphytus. Artwork is again from the mighty Godspill!!!

Mark du Mosch, Credit 00, William The Squid, Jared Wilson and Eluize join on Pt. 2 of this year's War Child Fundraiser from Craigie Knowes. Acid, House, Disco-vibes and dreamy Electro sounds across this awesome 5 track EP - the second instalment of the two-part series.

Mothball Record is proud to present the first collaborative EP from Betonkust & Eilandnet, made unironically for goths who like to dance.
Betonkust, who as well as receiving widespread recognition for his work with Palmbomen II on the 'Centre Parcs' album, has already several strong solo releases, often influenced by the Belgian New Beat scene. Eilandnet meanwhile has an extensive discography of quintessentially Dutch electro pop under the pseudonym 'Stippenlift' .

Most listeners will gravitate immediately to the tough and gritty electro opener 'Meaningless Sax' or the melancholic beauty of 'Ultra HD Game Water', but besides these two tracks is an EP of diverse material reflecting the artists' interests and obsessions (hinted at in the track titles).

This EP was recorded live in Betonkust's studio outside Amsterdam, in a single 14 hour session with no edits. In the words of the artists 'we recorded until we couldn't hit the right notes anymore'.

This EP showcases a wider style than previous Myriadd EPs, and the tracks here are a mixture of dancefloor focused tracks and the more etherial, emotive style that listeners associate with this artist. Astral Journeys is a building dancefloor track that combines deep bass and a bubbling acid line to maximum effect. A second acid track, Excursions, combines solid 909 beats, a bubbling Washing Machine style synth line and a sailing acid line. Title track, Oceans, and City Of Quartz are more Detroit influenced, with a more icy atmosphere than the other tracks, perhaps recalling early UK bleep techno tracks. Cosmos is classic Myriadd style, combining cosmic string solos and Chicago style percussive stabs over a solid bassline.

Oscillate Tracks is the new label born out of the event series Oscillate which has been running in Berlin at ://about blank over the last 4 years and become one of the city's most reliable mainstays. Known for their long dark nights and lush Summer days, this first record is celebrating more of the latter. Oscillate alumni D. Tiffany and Roza Terenzi bring their breaky flare to the first release with a dreamy remix from Oscillate favourite Jayda G. Vital Sales Points: - The event series Oscillate has been successfully running in Berlin over the course of 4 years, inviting artists such as Jayda G, Legowelt, Lena WIllikens, Aleksi Perala as well as locals and new acts such as Modular Gang, Clara Badu, Gigsta and more. Residents include Kate Miller (who is also a co-curator of the event and label), Johanna Knutsson and Rachel Lyn. Providing a safer environment and attracting a growing crowd and strong reliable following in the city. - Roza Terenzi has celebrated a flurry of refreshingly eclectic releases in 2018 on labels such as Voyage Recordings, Salt Mines, Kalahari Oyster Cult as well as D. Tiffany's latest imprint Planet Euphorique. - D. Tiffany aka DJ Zozi has enthralled the Canadian and Australian music communities with her gorgeously lush breaks and basslines either as Ambien Baby together with Nap or as herself on Coastal Haze, Pacific Rhythm and her own label Planet Euphorique. - Continuing the Canadian connection is Jayda G who launched her own label JMG Recordings this year with her first release 'Sacred Spaces'. She also co-runs Freakout Cult together with DJ Fett Burger.

Legendary producers and early acid house forefathers Phuture are welcomed to the AVOTRE imprint with a huge remix package of their seminal 1988 hit, We Are Phuture.

By enlisting the production talents of three of the biggest names in contemporary electronic music, Phuture have rejuvenated the classic track with an up to date sound, 30 years on from its original release.

Kicking off the release, techno don, Ricardo Villalobos, adds his unique flair, creating a much deeper alternative to the original, dripping with weighty tones and dense synth interchanges.

AVOTRE label owner Santé also lays his hand to the release with his own take on the Phuture classic. With a slightly lighter feel than Ricardo's efforts, Santé harnesses his exceptional production capabilities to produce another massive remix of the track.
Starting relatively heavy, Santé embraces the original's now legendary vocal, gradually building before eventually dropping back into its heavy foundations.

Finally, Marco Faraone rounds off the remix package with a true to style club weapon.
With each of these renowned producers adding their own unique style to this classic track, 'We Are Phuture (Remixes Part I)' provides a selection of modern interpretations that will appeal to dancefloors across clubland.

Also on the package is German producer and Watergate resident, Sebo K, with a smooth remix.

The debut release from Mont Lake Records is nally on its way to shake up the scene and rattle dance oors around the globe. The Portuguese duo Retro Spectrum have provided
a stellar two-track EP titled Under LX with a remix from Swedish house and techno veteran Jor-El. Already having previous releases on Monog Records, the production duo
will take you on an interstellar journey through deep and wise techno with splashes of acid to keep you moving until dawn.
Starting the journey o with He Said' they present a deep and dubby techno banger that is perfectly tailored to the modern techno junkie with haunting pads and playful acid stabs
to keep things all tied together. A1 is followed by Jor-El's remix of He Said' taking a more minimalistc approach compared to the original. Jor-El still adds just the right amount of acid that is perfectly tailored for the right moments during the night.
Rounding o the package on the B-side is Late' where Retro Spectrum plays around with their acid sound to create something fresh. The duo adds some interesting ideas by
adding some tastefully placed strings to add tension and a little drama to the track that is bound to pleasantly surprise the listener with something unexpectedly refreshing.
This well-rounded package presents a very intriguing set of club ready tracks that can be used for various moods throughout a night. Don't miss your chance to add this beauty to
your collection, as the pressing is strictly limited to 200 copies.

Brand new warped & acid Techno tunes out of the chamber. A 3-Tracker EP full of contrasts between raw sinister 303 lines, mellow chord pads and cranking beats madness.

Slow Down is a new vinyl only label. We love house music, and this our playground! We don't want you to focus on who made the tracks, we want you to feel the music!
This is the first release, proper old school Chi-town/NY vibey stuff. Limited press!

This March, the New York City-based imprint Absence Seizure will see its joint founders Abe Duque and Matuss join forces once more to deliver 'Seizure No. 11', following up on their recent collaborative effort 'Seizure No. 10' with another four tracks of soulful, stripped-down techno.

The EP begins in quintessential Duque fashion, running quirky and soulful melodies over a throbbing bassline and emotionally charged synths, whilst tying in the acid sounds that have been a staple of his music since his very earliest releases all the way back in 1993 as a regular in the New York wave of acid house and underground techno. '22 October' presents us with a progressive and skilfully executed cut, toning down some of the more muscular techno he sometimes produces in favour of a more freeform and chilled out vibe that layers funky synth melodies over bouncy rhythms and drawn-out sonic ambient textures.

The baton is then passed to Matuss for the remainder of the EP, beginning the journey straight off the bat with 'Between 4AM and Basement', beginning as an altogether more threatening number than the release's opener. The minimalism of the stripped-back beats instantly builds a dark atmosphere, creating a compelling flow through the track that opens up into a shuffling house-tinged beat and dreamy background soundscapes that carry you gently along for the ride.
The muted rhythms of 'Meet You at the Back Door' morph and skip around from one beat to the next to forge a jumpy and infectious musical trip that will instantly catch you up in its driven grooves. The EP's finale 'Moon Guardian' then opts for a different tack entirely, starting out with a confident, breaky beat and adding layer upon layer until the track reaches an exhilaratingly multifaceted climax. Unsettling cosmic ambience, distorted vocal samples, crescendos of noise and the ongoing and constantly evolving beats are brought to a perfect balance in this track, bringing the EP to a mysterious and gripping conclusion.

South London's TROY TOWN once again draws from the local talent pool to follow the Wbeeza EP. This release opens up the detailed percussive and wide-eyed, rave-influenced productions of Copper Green Sedan.
The multi-instrumentalist was living a nomadic life through northern Europe formulating the key ideas of the EP from the back of a campervan before rounding them off back in the studio. The resulting three track EP that was delivered to us conveys a hectic melancholy.
'Pedestrian' is a driving, breaksy opener. It's sympathetic to the groovers on the dance floor and the thick chords balance the snappy percussion. 'Rolling in the Long Grass' is a glitchy trip through a meadow. Finally, 'Gene' is a dusty, hands-in-the-air banger destined to reignite a jaded dance floor as the sun comes up. Man of the moment Desert Sound Colony (Holding Hands/Touch From a Distance) lays down a beautifully bionic 'Pedestrian' edit to round off the EP.

For their next trick, Get Physical treats everyone to a taste of their latest big project, India Gets Physical, with a single from Kone Kone that includes remixes from Reboot and Todh Teri (who will be curating and mixing the bumper forthcoming compilation). Mumbai's Kone Kone has an unconventional DJ style, creating audio-visual productions that are 'a new route to discover old media.' Kone Kone's electronic sounds explore Indian musical practices with a lo-fi finish, including references taken from disco, funky basslines and rolling toms. This superb latest track is a tribute to Indian cinema's '80s dance music. Entitled 'Come Closer,' it is a brilliantly loose and louche house track propped up by elastic bass. A whole world of instrumentation and exotic percussion enrich the groove while female vocal coos and soulful pads bring rich colours to lift the listener. Remixer Todh Teri is behind the acclaimed Deep In India release series and is at theheart of the revival of Indian cinematic sounds, where Bollywood sounds are reworkedfor the modern dance floor. His brilliant version has heavier drums doing big loops and pulling you further in each time as the synths bring cosmic vibes. Last of all, label stalwart Reboot's Muscleflexx Remix is darker and more edgy, with late night dance floors in mind as the pulsing synths and slippery drums gradually unravel. This is a great introduction to the next exciting chapter in Get Physical's country- focused compilation series.
