Last year Deathface‘s Blood Has Gone Black Mix was by far one of the most played mixes on my library, packed with tonnes of unreleased tracks that I was eager to get my grubby little hands on. It has taken roughly a year for these gems to see the light of day, in the form of […]

Today I found out Femme en Fourrure means woman in fur in English (which is kind of logical now that I think of it), and I found out Drop The Lime means lâche le citron in French. The more you know! The musically and esthetically beautiful Helsinki duo Femme en Fourrure got the bass vampire from NY to […]

I don’t know how they did it but Marcus Price and Carli (the latter also being known of Staygold, Savage Skulls and Basutbudet) delivered an EP that’s bigger than life. Their EP Mat Bira Kvinnor Weed (Out on Palms Out now, to be fully streamed here) is literally so good it made me want to send […]
