The Life EP

It’s an excursion into the past for Curated By Time, as the Spanish imprint travels back to the millennium on Kage’s A Future Remembered. Five vintage cuts that embody the sound of an era long gone, but never forgotten.We’re blessed with a trance-leaning musical number on Nightvision, with softened kicks and enchanting vocals marrying up in beautiful harmony. Semaphore then takes us into a weightier realm, as thick percussion moves beneath shimmering synths throughout.

Another quality gem on after 6 am in the rebound. A6a11 - Redeye - Resort Annexia from 1995 comes re-mastered in April.

Ghost Recs returns with a naughty 3 tracker by the UK based duo Jive Talk - the A-side of which The Ghost have been spinning most gigs since receiving the dubplate cut promo in late 2021. Vids of said tune have created a veritable feeding frenzy in Track ID groups. Speculation of its origins can now be put to rest. It’s new. It’s on their label. And it’s absolutely essential!

Two years after its last V/A, Bamboo Shows is back with the first opus of its ‘Vapordub’ imprint series. Another artifact springing from the depths of the leftfield music scene, this time focused on contemporary psychedelics.Highly inspired by the textures of the vaporwave sonic aesthetic, this 16-track compilation displays in turns intriguing sound design, graceful synths from a new age, weird exotics and psychoactive slow-dubs. Designed to please either curious or skilled ears, this various paves the way for a 90-minute mind wandering in distant, fantasized realms. Featuring renowned international artists, up and coming French projects and obscure aliases in the likes of A Strange Wedding & Camille Claire Olympie, Alieno deBootes, Babau, Bouti, Dean O’Brien Resorts, Dylan Henner, Georgia, Giant Grouper, Herbarium, Horn Chants, Jonnnah, Naomie Klaus, Nuke Watch, Polonius, Salamanda and Vica Pacheco. To be published on a 2x 12” gatefold-vinyl-bundle, including marbled &-transparent waxes and a mesmerizing collaboration between Vica Pacheco for the artwork and Romain Guillo for the design.

Dear Reptilian Santa, we're sorry...192 rec is taking the music industry by surprise with a 3rd EP right in time for end-of-year celebrations instead of a Best Of Christmas Songs. Kizoku is dropping with Waited Too long EP a pure nostalgic shot of raw tech-house straightout of the Stud, with naughty basslines, haunting melodies and funky rhythms. Already an after classics.
