The Kid N Cliff
Don't B Alarmed / Heavy Thump (Bangdatshyt)

Melchior Productions Ltd and Chez Damier present their new release The One on DisDat.

S.A.M. is back on their own Delaphine label after a four year hibernation period.The leading cut ‘Project050’ comes in two version, a Studio Version and a Live Mix.The foundation is a grooving 12bit 909 pattern that’s as crisp as it’s phat. Combed in between the syncopes of the groove are layers of acidic and resonant tones padded with swelling chords lifting you in and out of the metaphysical.Second track ‘Ha’ reveals references within a wide range of dance music history from early Derrick Carter-esque beats and 90’s dub techno to organ Melodies and UKG sub bass-lines. The transient beats work like tent poles for the thriving and continuously evolving melodic culture growing underneath.S.A.M. is showing a drive and a ferocity with this EP that speaks to an interesting 10th year of Delaphine.

Next up for Pornbugs is a collaboration project with Frink – ‘See Through My Eyes’. Remix support comes from Miroloja and Roger Gerressen.DJ and production duo Pornbugs have been blasing a trail since 2005 and set up the labelBondage-Music not long after to showcase their sound and the talented House artists around them. Frink is the epitome of underground. A talented artist with a steadfast fanbase that releases banger after banger with integrity and soul.

Waiting For The Grid To Go Down by Zoron

While playing Lyckle de Jong’s album to friends, it seemed it would also be a good opportunity to get some of them on the same record together and create a remix EP. So, three friends were tasked with reworking tracks from Lyckle’s 'bij Annie op bezoek'. The original album was inspired by a trip to see a retired and quarantined pensioner friend called Annie, in Leiden. Using some of the field recordings from that visit, Lyckle created a soundworld of Annie’s life and apartment, which exists in a time all of its own, floating somewhere between old photos and the present day.The remixes develop this otherworldly atmosphere. BREW helmsman Robert Bergman runs 'TV Oranje' through his machines to create a proper dubbed-out EBM chugger, twisting the walls of the club in on itself to psychedelic effect. Meanwhile, with 'voor een flat in de Merenwijk', Peter Graf York takes the soundtrack elements and delivers two versions: one an industrialised metal machine stepper, the other a pixelated stomper that could have dancers bashing their heads on the ceiling, Mario-style, if they were powered-up enough. Flippen Disks’ Monty goes straight for the kick drum jugular, weaving brain-melting pads and bass oscillations into thick dancefloor carpet on the track 'Trappenhuis'.
