The Crack EP

Bobby. returns to his own label Pleasure Club with his most refined work to date, an EP entitled “Before We Look Out, Let’s Look In”.The fabric resident presents his fifth full release, this time traversing the full spectrum of surrealist house, techno & electro; the kind which has become synonymous with his journey style DJ sets. As the title suggests this record transmits a deeply introspective and personal take on modern day club music. Melody, emotion and drama stay present throughout, with plenty of twists and turns along the way. With glimmers of early 00’s minimal, cosmic synthwave-style EBM and razor sharp electro, it is a record which references the past, but presents it updated and ready for dance floors of the future. With a debut album in the works for the end of the year, this release acts as an exciting precursor and marks a new chapter in the artists career.

Nathan Pinder makes his mark on Persona 002 with a four-track voyage into the darker side of the moon. Showcasing his trademark blend of drive, playfulness, and dancefloor instinct.'Range of Strange' opens the release with a mystical, high-energy blend of acid, electro, and techno guided by ancient voices. 'Call Me' follows, diving deeper with a hypnotic, evolving bassline, before 'Examiner' reaches the peak with stabbing synths and an enticing vocal loop. The closing track 'Irving' keeps the energy pumping with an offbeat bass groove built to get you moving. True to form, Pinder delivers a release that’s as playful as it is powerful, ready for a system near you.

Baby Rollén returns to his Slump white label series alongside partner-in-crime Ollie Rant, unleashing another MPC-driven beast. ‘Worthless’ follows 2022’s ‘Move It’ with a fresh dose of breakbeat heft and electro flair, while Baby flips the A2 with a slower, TR-505 Trax-inspired rework. Remixes come courtesy of DJ Mag award winners Make A Dance and Josh Ludlow, who both tow us away from the haunting A-side into peak-time territory with a pair of thumping dancefloor weapons.

20/20 Vision is doing a fine job of digging into its archives and reissuing genuine treasure. Next up is a Spirit Catcher classic from 2007 that has been long out of print.
