Join us on HUA3000’s second hike through imaginary worlds of extroverted introspection. As we haven’t seen any clubs from inside for way too long we felt an even greater urge to put out a record with a clear connection to its home turf: a dark & sweaty basement with vibrating walls. Feet on the dance floor. Heads somewhere in the low orbit of Venus. Closing in to the perfect altitude of 55 km above ground.

Incoming…POTG 03The 3rd release from tINI’s Part Of The Gang Records is here.This new three-tracker comes courtesy of Barcelona-based Uruguayan producer Jorge Gamarra.Jorge’s takes influences from Detroit and Chicago, as well as the UK and of course, Montevideo’s electro scene.Across three cuts we get a selection of future facing productions, composed with a vintage sonic aesthetic imbued with Gamarra’s heady mix of influences.The track ‘ADE’ is opening the EP with a delightful adventure into the cosmos.Groaning bass is combined with a menagerie of twinkling sounds, chirps and effects straight from another galaxy.Next up is ‘MK Ultra’, named after the infamous CIA mind control experiments (“Involves several drugs and electrodes plugged into the brain”).This one utilises layers of retro instrumentation to take hold of your subconscious and get that body moving uncontrollably...Finally, ‘DTR’ is 10 minutes of Gamarra demonstrating his production prowess, bringing together groovy bass, sci-fi effects and a catchy earworm, whistling melody…

The second of two new EPs by HVL from Georgia on Appian Sounds. Alignment EP showcases different flavours this time - Warmer acid, breaks, oscillating techno and early morning sounds. This EP was chosen from a different body of work (ten APPIAN015) but no less brilliant collection of tracks that Gigi put together towards the end of 2020 …Timeless cuts to suit all intimate dancefloors.

After shifting clandestinely between second hand crates as a bootleg vinyl for the last 25 years, Eddie Fowlkes’ Deepcover finally gets a proper pressing and 2 remixes by one of today’s most dedicated students of electro funk, OCB (Driss Bennis). Originally released on the Magic Tracks compilation CD by Juan Atkins, featuring tracks by artists like James Stinson and Keith Tucker, the track has all the elements of early techno soul straight from the hands of its inventor. Indescribable sounds combine in unexpected ways that just fit, pushing and pulling in all the right directions.
