Sailing Ships – Perry Granville

Posted on by

Released today on Brighton’s reliably excellent Higher Love Recordings is this fine two tracker from newcomer Perry Granville. The menacing cover artwork give a clue to the contents, a dark, moonlit shot of the rusting wreckage of the old West pier hinting at some dark, twisted productions within. Reeking of smoke machines and amyl, the 8 minute acidic throb of ‘Sailing Ships’ sounds like a new beat echo from 1988 blasting from the Bocaccio’s infamous Klipschorns. It’s dark, disorientating and right on the money. Track two ‘New Arp4’ is even slower and sludgier, with old school break beats, tweaking acid lines and atmospheric vocal lines creating a soundtrack for dark after hours dancefloor missions. Out now via Bandcamp (see below) or Juno Download.

Eivissenc – Residentes Balearicos

Posted on by

Residentes Balearicos is a new project founded by Luca Averna and Ale Doretto, both resident DJs in Ibiza and both hailing form Venice, Italy.
Together, they make music that tries to capture the amorphous energy of Ibiza, sizzling on sunny beaches, lulling through lounge conversations, and reaching palpable states in throbbing club nights before disseminating into the countryside air for replenishment.


The project is based on a collaborative idea where Luca and Ale invite other artists from the island into the studio with the aim of sparking up new and fresh ideas for how Balearic music can sound, both within chillout and dancefloor disciplines.

For Eivissenc, they were joined by DJ and producer Chris Coco. The music here is inscribed with the genesis of Residentes Balearicos: Luca’s flash of inspiration listening to old vinyl at the San Jordi Market and Ale and Chris’ help sculpting that idea into three radiant, highly danceable tracks.

Sounding like some lost classic from DFC Italia with tribal drums, acid squelch and dream house synths for day’s, don’t sleep on this one…

Noche De San Juan – George Solar & Chris Coco

Posted on by

This is what happens when two original Balearic heads meet up in the name of dub, sunsets & left field Ibiza.

A playful, almost innocent reggae riddim with a jazzy saudade twist, created in just a few summer nights on the axis of goodness linking up central London and the hills of Ibiza’s very own San Juan.

It is believed that on the night of summer solstice (aka “Noche de San Juan”), paranormal events are more likely to occur… as in this shortest night of the year, humans make contact with pagan gods by jumping over huge bonfires. A local Spanish tradition welcoming the summer, always related to fire & water.

Chris Coco and George Solar transformed those Ibicenco vibes into sound this year, with a little help from members of the infamous Ibiza based Dubtropical Allstars band. The beginning of something beautiful indeed – thanks to the music & fire gods. Version galore, play it some more!

Zimmer Remix EP feat Gerd Janson, Lauer & more…

Posted on by

One year on from the release of his self titled debut album, rising French producer Zimmer is back with a remix EP on Roche Musique. His polished house sounds have been handed over to a top notch crew of friends and influences for reinterpretation.

First out of the gate is Running Back boss Gerd Janson with short and extended dance mixes of ‘Rey’. Both are joyous, summery tracks full of swirling synths and retro bass, recalling the classic sounds of Scandi disco from Lindstrom and Todd Terje.

French crew You Man take on vocal cut ‘Wild Flowers’, turning into a dark, dirty, dubby chugger. Panama’s vocal stretched and treated into a James Blake style atmosphere.

Mexican outfit Zombies in Miami take ‘Mayans’ into darker, big room territory, with similar sounds from Lauer’s bubbling Italo take on ‘Mouvement’ and Kendal’s breakbeat version of ‘Techno Disco’.

Amtrac’s dubby, hazy, vocal mix of ‘Make it Happen’ sounds destined for heavy radio rotation.

A shimmering, polished gem from an artist you might have missed first time around.
