Ascending

Rupture // Rapture returns with Ascending, a deeply immersive exploration of future garage, blending ethereal textures, skittering percussion, and hypnotic basslines. Blending innovative sound design with rich atmospheres, Ascending immerses listeners in a journey of deep, evocative soundscapes and haunting melodies. With a sound rooted in the moody aesthetics of UK garage, ambient electronica, and post-dubstep, Ascending balances introspective depth with dancefloor energy. Each track unfolds like a story, evoking late-night cityscapes, misty memories, and the sensation of drifting between worlds.

Grounded

Blending UK garage, progressive house, and trance influences, Grounded balances driving rhythms with atmospheric textures and uplifting melodies. From the lingering glow of Afterlight to the introspective close of Familiar Distance, the album unfolds as a journey through moments of uncertainty, discovery, and release. The result is a cohesive and deeply immersive record that pairs emotional depth with forward momentum, continuing Rupture // Rapture’s evolution as a producer of cinematic electronic music beyond the dancefloor, moving body and mind in equal measure

DEEPER, UNDER

"Although grounded in steady beatwork, Deeper Under is as free as music gets, wandering this way and that in pursuit of something or other which isn’t completely clear. Innovative, silly, haunting, tuneful but always totally infectious." - Norman Records 'Album of the Week' Review: www.normanrecords.com/records/207859-malk-deeper-under/reviews 'DEEPER, UNDER', the latest album from MALK, is the second volume in his journey through the history of rave. A sequel to his 2018 album 'WE BELONG UNDERGROUND', the work speaks like a collection of dusty, played-out house, jungle, and club twelve inches resurfaced in a warehouse that were never-before-released digitally. Some songs might sound recognizable, some not, but all have been altered and composed with what has become his detached sound. Broken Casio keyboards, a veneer of nostalgia, and tongue-in-cheek samples litter the vignettes in a way that can be interpreted as both a celebration and a critique of rave culture past and present.

IN THE MIX [009] - Enzo Van Baelen

Enzo's back on the decks this week with a new mix, featuring a world exclusive preview of a new track in collaboration with Saint Pepsi! There's future funk and vaporwave from Kouek, Runners Club 95 and slowerpace; an old school UK garage cut; plus synthwave bangers from the likes of Timecop 1983 and Carpenter Brut... And there's even time for some classic rave anthems at the end! As ever, these mixes are all free - but if you feel like making a small donation it all helps to keep the project ticking over.

Psyche - Compilation I

Spin the Disc's debut release is a combined effort between three continents, four countries and nine talented artists to create some sweet, soulful music straight from the heart. The album title 'Psyche' comes from Ancient Greek and it translates to 'Soul'. On this release you will hear what the word means to each artist. We at Spin the Disc are humbled by the chance to work with so many talented musicians and hope that we can give as much back to each artist and listener in turn. Spin the Disc [STDR-001]

Push It (Remixes) w/ X-Coast, UNIIQU3 & Interplanetary Criminal [SR52]

Sorry Records presents Push It (Remixes) — the brand new remix collection from Brooklyn- raised multi-genre artist XHOSA, with production from Riviera Records head X-Coast. Created in the image of the classic major label club remix records of the 80s and 90s, Push It (Remixes) is a joyous smorgasbord of vocal club bliss aiming to bring the current NYC underground back to the days of Red Zone and Def Mix. Xhosa (née Amhara Xhosa Rein-Burrowes) has spent the last few years making waves as an up-and-coming rapper, producer and singer-songwriter known for blending the boundaries of genre in order to form her own wholly unique strain of pop that has garnered the attention of publications such as The FADER, VOGUE, and Paper Magazine. VIBE Magazine dubbed her one of the women "running New York City’s underground music scene” and Vogue called her style “equal parts Jamaican dancehall queen meets Japanese anime heroine.” She’s recently collaborated with Colombian artist Manchado on his new experimental reggaeton single “Mona Lisa” which Remezcla called “otherworldly,” noting Xhosa’s “fiery flow.” Built around an original mix produced by X-Coast (Steel City Dance Discs, Big Beat), Push It (Remixes) touches on a wide assortment of sounds from pop to hip house, r&b to breaks, Jersey club to UK Garage with both Xhosa and X-Coast contributing VIP mixes alongside perpetually rising heavy hitters UNIIQU3 (Local Action), and Interplanetary Criminal (Sneaker Social Club, Timeisnow, Kalahari Oyster Cult). 1.
