Fall On Your Sword – The First Time I Saw Jupiter [DFA2305]
Brooklyn band Fall On Your Sword release on DFA Records. “The First Time I Saw Jupiter” creates an atmosphere of eerie, icy desolation; sounds emit outward in what feels like the loneliness and desertion of space. “Rhoda’s Theme” feels slightly more hopeful and less lonely. The song begins with a soft, repeating keyboard line, and then opens up onto beatific synths. There are slight shifts of shape across its nine-minute duration, as it moves from moments of driven beats and rhythms to sections of gorgeous, nearly orchestral streams of sound.
Kuba Sojka – Berlin News [SLN002]
Polish producer Kuba Sojka with a smoky and nostalgic house on London label Souliner. Title track “Berlin News” utilises multiple layers of expansive pads over an ascending analogue bassline; considering how many elements are jostling for position the effect is impressively reined in. On the B-Side, “Electronic Fever”, the same kind of arrangements are used, but building up to a complex improvised piano melody. The last track “Auster Session” is a collaboration with Electribalt.
Gavin Russom – Night Sky [DFA2289]
DFA Records presents “Night Sky”, a track that grows and grown into an 13 minutes odyssey. The buzzy bottom end enters and expands before Russom’s vocals – alleyway dark and mysterious – make their way in. The song dips and dives, going from barebones synthesizers resting on organic percussion to explosive vocal choruses. The end reunites nearly every sound that made a previous appearance in an ensemble of ecstatic rhythms and noise. Mutant Beat Dance aka Beau Wanzer & Melvin Oliphant III, undo the original and transform it. There are so many new elements to be found here – a thick bassline, shuffling beat, wiry electro etchings, eerie washes of synths that swell unexpectedly and unannounced – it all makes for a collection of sounds that, thankfully, are head swimming in their unique and wonderful unpredictability.

Local Records present the first release by Romanians Rusu & Flore aka Khidja.”Poor Relatives” features 5 original house tracks full of synths and disco feeling.
Pacific Horizons – Beaches Of The Black Sea [PWF003]
Two tracks of urban psychedelia from the heart of L.A. “Beaches Of The Black Sea” is an ambitious chugger filled with flamenco guitars and synths. The B-side “Stealing The Fire From Heaven” is a more experimental cut with neo-industrial rhythms and a rolling bassline.
Tyson Ballard – Little Too Much [VR006]
New Ep from the Voyeurhythm camp. Label founder Tyson Ballard weighs in with melodic, analogue bounce on the original, laced with a husky soul vocal that climaxes in a hip shaking freestyle percussion jam. Sidwho? on remix duty and builds up a dark, steamy synth-driven dub, complete with snarling vocoder on the Late Nite mix. Ben Sun comes with a version that slowly unveils a cracked, shimmering melody over the top of his dusty drums and sub bass, as the vocal gently persists on the Dawn’s Arrival mix.
