If Russian producer Anton Bogomolov (aka Scruscru) is not on your radar yet, he will be after listening to his latest offering on Berlin imprint Limited White Label. Having previously released music on labels such as Minor Notes Recordings, and most recently Nomada out of Colombia, Mr. Bogomolov continues his run of phenomenal releases with a brand new EP titled LTDBLBL005. As the name denotes, this is the 5th record to be put out by Limited White Label. Up until this point, the label has only produced vinyl featuring tracks from various artists. However, this time around, they have decided to devote an entire 12” to originals from Scruscru himself – and we could not be more pleased with the decision!

The song we are premiering for our listeners today is the A1 from the release titled “Waka-no-ura Bay.” Named after a Japanese heritage site known for its shimmering tidal flats, old stone bridges, and ancient shrines and temples, this track will leave you captivated in a similar vein with its rich textures; colorful arrangments; and crashing melodies. Being a label known for their sophisticated, classical, jazz and ethnic-oriented electronic style, we honestly could not think of a better artist for Limited White Label to collaborate with on their first, full-length solo feature than Scruscru. If you’re like me, hopefully, this will be a paring we will see again in the months and years to come!
LTDBLBL005 is set for release on June 26th with only 300 copies on vinyl. Make sure to get yours by following the pre-order link right here!
