Fhloston Paradise EP

DC Salas’s label Higher Hopes returns for its sophomore chapter… ‘Male Tears’, a deliciously sleazy and wry take on the patriarchy from queer polymath, Kiosk Radio resident, visual artist, performer, producer and DJ Strapontin.

During the global pandemic we spent all of our time at home exploring the swiss electronic musical scene. Diving deep down in the realm of the cloud of sounds, navigating through musical genres when we stumbled upon one unique type of sound. Sharp and raw drums, fast energetic grooves and quirky ambiances are what the young Swiss producer Quinzy is all about on Side A, delivering two party-oriented cuts that will burn through the dancefloor without hassle. On the B Side the man showcases the versatility of his production skills, creating two deeper yet carefully crafted tracks that bring to light his unique blend of house influences with touches of eccentricity that makes his signature sound.

Half of the Groove Boys Project duo, Lucas aka Projecture is releasing 4 New-York style deep house tracks for the third record of the label. Deep jazz chords, smooth basslines and MPC drum work featuring Rawaï on A1 and Lulu Jems on drums & Kamasari on saxophone on B2. As every record of the label, the last track is a tribute to a producer they admire, and for this one this is a jazz house track that pays tribute to the french hero St Germain.Recorded at studio 937

CALLING ALL FRENETIC LOONS - cursed to strut on thy toes, or to point them to the sky. Has a lack of dance based activity made you weary? The deprivation of bass inflected oxygen surging thru your body resulted in a euphoric fatigue? Well rise and shine all you.Spiritually Deluded kinder, the hit parade is back, with Roza T & D. Tiff tip-toeing in with 8 tracks high in kinetic synergy and low in “bOriNGG!!”. The sound of 2 artists; serious in their intent yet blowing raspberries at the cork sniffers/snobs, obstinate to the world of industrial decay press shots + plastic ravers.Instead they straddle the Edge of Innocence. Residue of lines once written, now your own personal tightrope. You wobble to and fro as part of a troupe of ethereal jesters, composed of Lil’ Drummer Boi’s pitter pattering on Gravity Bongo’s. Both tracks repping and following the rhythm of the ozone bounce house. With enough elasticity you’ll ^^break thru^^, experiencing Possession by momentary ascension. The weightless sensation of falling in a circle; catch yourself if you please. Such transcendence is lucrative, the Paparazzi on hand to flash and burn the retina, providing instant short-circuit delusions of grandeur. Sonically every hard knock is met with a “bOinKK!!”, illuminating the dark yet cartoonish nature of the practice - guaranteed to make u skip, achieve the perfect sly pout. You and your gang can terraform into bodacious bass-bins, and cast your personal Redemption Arc onto the ether.Inhibitions are to be absolved, and fat kickdrums to be followed. In this hyper-informed yet unknowing present tense, who can ignore the beat based intrinsic incentive to fuck up the circadian rhythm - the music becoming a byte-based silkworm, spinning its digital silk from synapse to synapse, until your brain is a translucent cocoon playfully ricocheting, the cranium its pleasure dome. Call the drum dealer.
