Recommended: Soosh – Colour Is Breathe

It’s been a few weeks since Error Broadcast dropped “Colour Is Breathe“, the debut album from Iranian-born, Scottish-raised producer Soroosh Khavari, aka Soosh. It’s an album that grabs you on first listen, enveloping you in its melancholy, but with every listen it feels at once like an old friend and a new acquaintance. Opening with […]

Chronicles: Rockie Fresh – Electric Highway

We couldn’t make it to SXSW this year, but plenty of our favorite artists went down to the festival, including Chicago’s Rockie Fresh who hustled hard in Austin, performing at Warner and SPIN showcases during last week’s festival. Rockie is young rapper who’s been hanging around the music industry for a few years now, linking […]

Recommended: Pépé Bradock – Acid Test 07

When talking about French dance music it would be hard to minimize the importance of Pépé Bradock. The Frenchman is responsible for hit after hit including one of dance music’s seminal records, which at 14 years old still holds a place on many dancefloors – “Deep Burnt”. Moving beyond that, he’s proven himself more than […]

Recommended: BLM – Sudden Death

Ben Micklewright is one of those guys with an expansive back-catalogue, but who has somehow flown under most people’s radar. As BLM, the bulk of his music has appeared on Fear Of Flying although he’s also worked with Tsuba Records and Jus-Ed’s Underground Quality. There’s a definite classic edge to his music and you’d be […]

Exclusive: Dro Carey – Casanova Breakneck

Last week, Dro Carey, the hyper-talented Aussie with releases on Templar Sound, Hum + Buzz and The Trilogy Tapes, stepped up for us with a Truancy-themed mix inspired by the structure of Dre’s tapes from the ’80s: techno followed by rap followed by his own productions. Before RAMP Recordings puts out his debut album later in the year, Dro will self-release […]

Recommended: Artifact – Cologne Tracks

Incoming heat from yet another UK producer who’s experimenting with footwork, Bristol’s Artifact. Releases on somethinksound and Rebirth displayed a flair for chunky house production, elements of which carry through seamlessly here. Local Action has already been responsible for dancefloor destroyers from DJ Q and T. Williams as well as Slackk’s criminally underrated “Raw Missions […]

Recommended: Torus – The Yard Sale EP

It’s not that long since we rhapsodised about Hav Lyfe’s eponymous EP on Sonic Router’s label, but we’ve reason to talk about these guys again. They’ve just dropped a surprise name-your-price EP from Torus, the Dutch artist whose EP kickstarted the label’s existence this time last year. The release of “The Yard Sale” EP marks […]

Recommended: Glenn Jackson – Morning Swim EP

On first listen, if you thought Glenn Jackson’s “Morning Swim” EP sounded like it came from a certain Spanish coastal city starting with a B, you wouldn’t be too far off. The producer hails from what many like to call the Barcelona of the US, also known as the Bay Area. Though it’s his first release under […]

Recommended: Anthony Naples – El Portal EP

At this point Anthony Naples has branched into many corners of the music spectrum, primarily off the back of last year’s “Mad Disrespect”. Circumventing the usual approach of banging out EP after EP while on the public’s good side, he’s taken a decidedly slower course. He’s held back on releasing any new material, and only […]
