Stripped-back grooves and funk-laden deep house from three special names
We’re ready to launch the 38th edition of XLR8R+.
For our members, a new month means a package of previously unreleased music, and this time around it comes from three artists who’ve been on our radar for some time.
On opening duties is enigmatic Italian producer D:fferent Place who, for over just shy of a decade, has compiled a discography of quality EPs that stylishly blend house and stripped-back techno. “Shades of Time,” the track he’s offered up here follows in this style, with five-and-a-half minutes of feel-good melodies and chunky low-slung grooves.
Up next is Argentinian producer Ana Helder, part of the Cómeme family, with “Dribbling Con Espadas,” a slice of chugging funk-infused house music.
That’s before Quimbie, another mysterious artist who forms part of Janx Records, based in Germany, closes the package. With “Gloria Fake,” he delivers a broken-beat deep house cut perfect for the summer months ahead.
The art for this month comes from Rebecca Kettley, a freelance artist living in London, which, once again, is claimable as an NFT.
Track mastering comes from Kamran Sadeghi and Gabriele Carasco.
Thanks for your continued support.
