April Sounds
10 recent bits to check for stereo satisfaction.
Selector: Olly Groves
(in no particular order)
1. Dcast Dynamics - In Darkness - Clone
Weird electronic dubby house beats with electronic masterclass ‘Under Current’ on the flip.
2. The Roots - Rising Down (LP) - Def Jam
Political, raw, non conformist hip hop with some big beats to back it up. ‘Get Busy’ stands out.
3. Andrey Zots - Backstabbed - Globox
Minimal House to scare the children, should come with insanity warning.
4. Nick Holder - Time (Manuel Tur/Wahoo Mixes) - K7 Records
Tur turns in some dubbed out goodness. Wahoo strips it back & drives it forward. (Dubs lead the way)
5. Henrik Schwarz - I Exist Because Of You (Versions) - Innervisions
Afro-tech four to the floor deepness, beautiful stuff.
6. Erykah Badu - Honey
Moody Boyz deliver a killer dub. Baddass.
7. Michael Mayer - Lovefood
Matias Aguayo goes deep on the remix, flip it for a classy cover of Kylie’s ‘Slow’ .
8. Sasha - Coma (Slam Soma Coma Mix)
Slam drop some moody electrotech business into the mix.
9. Nacho Marco - Wench (Francois Dubios Mix) - Freerange
Warm deep house to take you through to sunrise.
10. Q Burns Abstract Message - Shame (Hakan Lidbo Dub)
Stockholm’s finest gets deep and tribal on this melancholic vocal.
