Exciting new EP from the superlatively-named My Panda Shall Fly, representing the third release from Dam Mantle’s Wichita Recordings offshoot, Growing Records. The Sri Lanka-born, London-based producer (whose real name is Suren Seneviratne) boasts an incredible skill set as both a producer and a visual artist. While he’s a member of the forward-thinking London artist […]

With this mix, Bullion has delivered us something quite unusual, but has proven once again that he’s comfortable knowing quality music regardless of the genre. Inspired by the late 1960s Canterbury scene, a genre that married progressive rock and experimental jazz in a manner most avant-garde, the West London producer has blended a variety of […]

We just got our hands on a fresh new EP from Montreal’s Hovatron, his first for the Lowriders Records imprint. Stuffed to the brim with wonky synth experimentation, analog swagger, and beats heavy enough to send you into cardiac arrest, this EP has vibes for days and makes a strong first impression. “Gypsy Trader” opens […]

The Glaswegian Numbers authority and dance floor dynast Jackmaster is next in line to release an installment of the FabricLive series. It’s an emotional one. Compromising 29 tracks in a little over an hour, Jack Revill takes us on a trip through several big booty hits, a little bit of garage, Detroit house classics and some present-day tidbits […]

It’s no secret that we Truants love our woozy electronica, those trippy, melodic hazy sounds just do something to us. The latest EP on Two Tap Digital, from Shells, is a gem, a perfect example of this delectable sound. His label draws comparisons with Four Tet and The Album Leaf, and for once such comparisons […]

You know it’s a good friday when Discobelle put out a record like this. Past-Truancy contributors and Silverback bosses Voltron‘s “Freshmen EP” just dropped, and it’s a bit special. Two originals, five remixes, it’s a cliché to say there’s something for everyone but ain’t that the truth. “Don’t Stop” and “Be For Real” are from […]

As David Brent would say, a good idea is a good idea forever. This Jamie Grind remix of Hackman‘s “More Than Ever” first surfaced a little over a year ago, but Mr Grind has just been so kind as to give it away for free. Sounding as fresh as did when it first appeared, this […]

“Jazz, it goes into my coffee in the morning and my wine in the evening,” was an epigraph I’ve lived by for a considerable amount of my life. All-jazz-everything, and a great amount of cheesy pop. The jazz votarient in me slowly started getting into dubstep after hearing Loefah’s Jungle Infiltrator 12″, which held “Jazz Lick” […]
