Matthew Bourne returns to Leeds based label Leaf with a new album. Pioneers of 90s ambient/downtempo experiments, Leaf have always avoided any possible pigeonholing by consistently switching up their perceived agenda. For Isotach, Bourne prepares ten beautiful piano compositions, with his last works being synth-laden epics (including a Kraftwerk-commemorative A/V piece), Isotach strips his sound right back to basics.

After remixes for Depeche Mode and DJ Hell as well as a new Fixmer / McCarthy single with Douglas McCarthy (by Nitzer Ebb), 2017 has already proved a productive year for Terence Fixmer . With the new Force EP , the Berghain resident of his 2016 Beneath The Skin EP (O-TON 97) follows and offers four stylistically different yet coherent techno scenarios for club use.
Tweet‘Kunst’ marks the first collaboration between these two heroes. John Cunnane, p.k.a. dgoHn & Jodey Kendrick, a.k.a J.K., Black Narcissus, Lord Of The D. Both gentlemen have appeared on Rephlex and Weme Records. It’s strikingly original, great listening but hard to describe accurately with attention-grabbing pidgeonholes: ”From ambient, moody soundscapes to rinsing, hi-tech workouts.. and beyond.”
TweetNever Ready Records welcomes Dublin’s Major Grave to their label delivering Grime, Garage and Dubstep munitions from the Major’s sonic arsenal, decimating all that lays in his path.
“Take Charge” drops like a depth charge of shimmering bass cannons and 2-step snaps. Waxing lyrical with “If You Want” sees Grave notch the mood down and get melodic, while still keeping proceedings bouncy. The B-Side is reminiscent of early FWD days with the woofah bass galore of “S.W.A.T” and the dark transient melodies of “Dem Nevah Ready”.
TweetHype Williams debut on Big Dada with Rainbow Edition, billed as the follow up to 2011’s One Nation and the first new recordings from the Dean Blunt and Inga Copeland featuring project since 2012.
Released 25th August 2017
