Bristol imprint Idle Hands has had quite the memorable year as of late. In 2018, the label was finally able to reach their 50th release with a 12” gem from Livity Sounds’ Peverelist and recently capped off November with a record from London-based producer Parris. To finish the year with a bang rather than a whimper, Idle Hands have elected to release an EP from Swedish producer Pistole Pete! Although he isn’t as well-known as the other artists they have on their roster, Mr. Pete has been a huge favorite of Idel Hands’ boss Chris Farrell. Any time Pistol would come out with one of his records since 2012, they would always find a home in the record shop he runs in Bristol.

In his latest effort, Pistol has elected to compose a record that is primarily designed for the club and sets out to leave its listeners with a sense of warmth for those cold winter months ahead. Out of his EP Orphan, our favorite has to be the track titled Lundagatan, which is a reference to a street in Stockholm (Pistol’s hometown). Throughout the piece, Pistol utilizes a chopped up soul sample for its base and decides to pair it with an assortment of energetic, drum patterns and swirling synths that manage to create a groove that will keep your head bobbing from beginning to end. After taking one listen to the tune, you’ll begin to immediately understand why people such as Chris Farrell have such a fondness for the emotional originals Pistol makes. We do not own a record shop, but Pistol’s music will always be welcomed at Bolting Bits!

As a listener, there’s something extra satisfying about knowing a particular record comprises musical input from people of vastly different parts of the world.Munich record label Dionysian Mysteries was the central node of a recent such example of crosscontinental musical collaboration: artists from Stockholm, Vina Del Mar (Chile), Okayama, Richmond (U.S.A.) and Melbourne all have a say on the record, set for release soon.

But wait, there’s more: on top of the 12” a digital release will feature three extra tracks – one by YS and two by Detach – to compliment the three house/disco tracks and a fourth, slightly deeper and darker acid number on the vinyl. It’s safe to say none of the tracks let us down and each has at the foreground of its musical canvas something captivating.

Our premiere is no less than the A1 track, Haddock by Omar Santis and Pistol Pete, a track that carefully walks the line between linearity and climax; there are no big build ups and drops, but we continually feel like the track is climbing and rolling on purposefully.

A classic guitar sample and stretched strings provide a funky melodic atmosphere, while the percussive elements steer the track’s energy with satisfying simplicity. It’s a safe bet to drop on a peak time dancefloor. For a well-rounded and generally tasteful house and disco record, keep an eye out on Dionysian Mysteries’ Facebook page for this release. It’s only their third, but listening to it will help you understand the hype that’s brewed around them since their first two. Pre-order here.
