Earl Grey lands on Rua Sound with a killer four track EP of dark, smoked-filled cinematic vibes straight from an 80s psycho-thriller. After over a decade of stellar contributions to some of the most crucial imprints around, we are delighted that he's contributed to our series of releases. There's three stunningly original 160bpm jams here, each dripping with Earl Grey's defiant experimentalism front and centre; a trip through vast range of sample sources and non-repetitive detailed percussion. Stick around too as he drops the tempo for the punishing Death Rattle, a tune so out there and at home on its own terms that it defies categorisation but demands to be heard and played as loud as is legal. Stunning material from a producer who continues to impress and innovate in equal measures. Learn More

Suchi’s bouncy, airy productions are so organically deft that they almost belie the complexity that exists within. Prior to her !K7 debut the Oslo-born, London-bred, Delhi-influenced DJ and producer found herself in a period of creative stagnation, while attempting to rediscover her own voice through production.

Recorded in February 1969 and released on LP as two side-long jams, it introduced ideas that what would become common to many of Miles’ albums in the years ahead: a rotating cast of sidemen that changed track by track, which meant—at least on studio recordings—the idea of a consistent band was no longer a priority. New names swung into Miles’ orbit, each bringing a new sound and sometimes instrument, for one tune, perhaps to return on another album. Learn More

This ethic is transposed into their own craft, used as fuel to turn beautiful moments into music. This 15-track album seeks to convey this through an assortment of sun-saturated grooves of different shapes and sizes. Learn More

Al Wootton returns to his label Trule with his second album “We Have Come To Banish The Dark”. The record is a product of dystopic times, taut with energy and restrained violence, yet never oppressive or nihilistic.

Yet there remains a constant hope and light, most evident in the downtempo roller “Devarim” and the closing bars of “May Your Angels Of Light Accept Him”. Learn More

The album features 11 songs that combine field recordings and sound design with a range of stylistic touch points: the fluid intricacies of hip-hop, the precise efficacy of IDM, the euphoric physicality of dance music, the humanity of acoustic instrumentation. Each song blends a primary sound source with a certain style, with titles often hinting at the origins of the sounds – “Moldy Vinyl,” “Vietnam,” “Fluid,” “Swashers,” “Nubia” – or the mood the music evokes. What ties it all together is Horikawa’ s deeply personal understanding of what constitutes music, an understanding shorn from the commercial and stylistic structures of music as a commodity.

Portuguese techno master Lewis Fautzi returns home after a while with his trademark rugged and solid techno.
For this release he provides four cuts of heavily pressurized dj tools, starting with Total Absence, starting with a solid groove spiced with bass enforced frequencies, the intensity grows as the bars go by using additional percussive layers and electrified drones floating over the beat.
Paranoia comes next, clean and solid drums, elastic sequences and high pitched atmospheres collide in another mental workout.
On the B side, Ground State provides another interpretation, in a more shuffled approach in the rhythms, precisely distorted and with the aid of a bleepy detail that appears from beyond the spectrum.
Closing the Ep, Uncertainty is the most rugged exercise in this release, once again distortion is wisely used and the approach is more industrial than the previous cuts.
One more proof of the expertise of this fundamental producer in today’s serious techno scene. Learn More
