Artist: The Parties

The dark and mysterious Solofour hail from France and have made a superb two-track deep and melodic techno EP titled 'Reglo'. Track one 'Melano' is something pretty special and layers together melodies, beeps, bleeps, warped vocals and quirky glitches to create a sophisticated minimal-esque tune, the type of thing you might find on a Minus release. Second track 'Resisto' keeps to a similar sound taking it a bit more upbeat. We're impressed. Stream the as yet unsigned EP below and watch this space... Follow Solofour on facebook and soundcloud

On Saturday, clubbers descended on Shoreditch’s Haggerston Park for the debut festival from established club night, Found. Any debut festival will have its sceptics, however Found really pulled this one off . The park was the perfect size which meant that the stages were all in close proximity and each one had a unique feel to it. Entry to the festival was quick and easy and toilet queues were no longer than you’d expect for any festival, although the bar queue was a bit long. Despite the rainy weather the sell out festival was [...]

Tri Angle regular oOoOO (pronounced ‘oh’), aka Christopher Dexter Greenspan, is due to release his debut album on the 24th June on his own imprint Nihjgt Feelings and it's more of what we love from the San Franciscan. Haunting soulful vocals, ambient sounds and melodic beats. His signature take on the left-field electronic genre warps and weaves synths, bass and samples to create an individual sound that’s ethereal and trippy yet warm and soothing.  Opening track ‘Sirens/Stay Here’ showcases Greenspan’s ability to experiment and seamlessly blend sounds to create something emotional and deeply atmospheric, at the 5 minute mark the track drops [...]

Gold Panda’s new album is out today. ‘We Work Nights’, taken from the album, is as unusual as it is beautiful.  This track by Erdbeerschnitzel is quite possibly the prettiest thing we’ve ever heard. Adore. Buy it here   Maya Jane Coles works her magic on The XX ‘Fiction’. Atmospheric and moody.
