  • Glasgow‘s IDM /experimental /electropop band  (former members of Knockout Ned, De Rosa, Whin), JEWEL SCHEME “Minor Bad – Robert Dallas Gray Remix” remix by Glasgow guitarist Robert Dallas Gray (ex-Life Without Buildings) from double single “Minor Bad / You’re Not Wrong”

Glaswegian guitarist Robert Dallas Gray with an atmospheric, mesmeric, rustic rework, unfurls soft hints of thudding kicks and metronomic plinking reiterations and cottony bass pulses, stirring silted hypnotic sways of rustling, hissing effected guitar loops, ornated by sparse wispy angelic cries, to soffuse an ephemeral chilling headscape.

  • Parisian trance /electro /progressive house DJ-producer Louison – “Brrrh” from V/A “La m​ú​sica infinita” x Valencia” LP Valencia flood benefit compilation [22recordings]

A special compilation by Barcelona‘s 22recordings in support of the difficult unfolding situation due to the recent Valencia flood. All proceeds will be donated to the Fundación Horta Sud and organizations dedicated to animal welfare. Up-and-coming eclectic Parisian DJ-producer provides a trippy, energetic melting of electro, progressive house and trance sonic suggestions, bouncing on steady punchy beats, and warm deep pulsing basslines, layered with soaring trancey emotive synth pads alongside both clangy and buzzy flickering overlays, to converge for a heady gripping ride of dancefloor chills.
