Carlton Doom – Wolf Whistle [Hypercolour]

Florent — Thu, 09 Jun 2022 13:00:48 +0000

Releasing, as he calls it, ‘boom boom music’ on labels such as Hotflush, Lobster Theremin and Neutralizer, Belfast based producer Carlton Doom tees up another set of slammers for this second release on the Hypercolour label.

‘Down In Red Light’ EP features a trio of raw and uncompromising bangers, breaks zip past and the rave is strong in these ones, with Carlton Doom deploying mega bass and brain scrambling motifs with serious intent. Reger is enlisted for a top-drawer remix of ‘Wolf Whistle’ to boot!

Alphonse – Be There (feat. Be Atwell) [Hypercolour]

Florent — Mon, 22 Mar 2021 13:05:42 +0000

Four brand new mind melters from the creative and imaginative Alphonse. Back on Hypercolour, following 2018’s ‘Better Weather’ single, the British beat scientist pulls together more future sounds on ‘The Dark Horse’ EP.

Always spacey and dubwise in his creations, Alphonse continues a run of releases that have taken in entries for Klasse Wrecks, Black Orpheus and [Emotional] Especial. Breakbeats and rave tropes fly past in a blizzard of hedonistic sounds and distinctly UK flavours.

Alphonse – Moan Up [Emotional] Especial

Florent — Tue, 30 Jul 2019 12:30:47 +0000

Alphonse is back to [Emotion] Especial for a third EP to again show his deep knowledge of the past to make a future. After the debut dub-breaks-poem of Same For Me and success of his warrior afro-dance Smokey 12”, Alphonse made new friends with acclaimed releases for Klasse Wrecks, Hypercolour and Black Orpheus, before here returning like a chosen one with four sun kissed blessings.

Before the fields of Letchlade, hills of Castlemorton or beaches of Skegness had witnessed Alphonse exploring the sounds of many a free party sunrise, summers were misspent travelling the “disco” buses of Europe, tripping the light fantastic from Spook to Amnesia, Disco Piu to Euritimia.

The music, shared experiences and inclusion all led to an acute understanding apparent in his production skills. Ambient dreamscapes, warm bass lines, 808 breaks, 909 kick, piano, flute and horn melodies atop all lift to the heavens. In Moan Up and White Pepper Alphonse takes, reshapes, rebuilds and rewrites to create anew, expanding minds and hearts like never before.

Long stories, short stores, a nod and wink, at its heart Stolen Sunrise is an EP of wonderful expression, a producer peaking, providing a soundtrack to share for those that look to the future horizons with love. Buy it here!

Jabru – Ms. Jones & I [Purple City Soufflé]

Florent — Tue, 19 Feb 2019 14:00:50 +0000

Jabru, an up and comer known for his releases on labels such as !K7, Futureboogie, Hypercolour’s sub-label Losing Suki as well as Optimo’s Bucky Skank sub-imprint, is releasing his debut LP. “Ill Conceived” on Purple City Soufflé is a vibrant project full of varying influences featuring a number of vocalists. From rough and ready BRUK to more contemporary polished productions – the album is a medley of sounds that show off the producer’s array of influences.

Today we’re premiering ‘Ms. Jones & I’ – the most dancefloor ready cut of the bunch. Sandwiched between the broken beat stylings of ‘Into My Arms’ and ‘First Place Loser’, this track serves as a climactic changing point in the album, which, despite it’s diverse influences and direction, is indeed meant to be listened to in one fell swoop. Filtered chords that rise and fall and a looped vocal are the centrepieces here, all sitting over a steady, driving beat. Hazy late night atmospheres are drawn out and we can’t help but notice the style is reminiscent of an early Galcher Lustwerk. Normally we would say perhaps this is the odd tune out of the bunch, but the LP itself is so eccentric that in its own way, it fits right in.

The album is out on March 8th, be sure to order yours here!
