    2. CHAMPION SOUND - Gun Fevah (7" Inch) (Pre Order)

      It's a UK thing, they say. However, halftime and Jungle are dubbed internationally since ages. Positive vibes are killing borders all over the globe. Members of Champion Sound met while playing in Reggae bands in Moscow. Neekeetone was drumming, Koondoongoo is still playing bass. Learn More

  • Bass Music / Dubstep / Garage

    1. HYAS - Footnotes Player EP

      Artisjok Records is happy to present you the second EP on the label of ‘Hyas’ – a Lyon based DJ Producer who knows no bounds in merging different influences. The release kicks off with ‘Level’, a fusion of broken beat and dub techno that creates a deep, textured sound, setting the tone for the entire journey. Learn More

    2. OBJEKT - Ganzfeld EP

      Objekt launches his new label, Kapsela, with a 10-year anniversary reissue of his lauded production ‘Ganzfeld’. An ambitious, evocative electro/IDM epic with cavernous drums and a riotously funky bass solo, Ganzfeld was initially released in 2014 on Leisure System as the B-side of Hypnagogia, a split EP with Detroit electro pioneers Dopplereffekt. It quickly garnered critical acclaim (including Track Of The Year by Resident Advisor) and amassed a cult following despite clocking in at 147bpm, a relatively unwieldy tempo for most DJs at the time. Given the seismic shifts in tempo and genre that have taken place in the 10 years since and the emergence of a new generation of producers with whom Ganzfeld’s influence has resonated, 2024 seemed like the perfect moment for a re-release.

  • House

    1. THEO PARRISH - I Can Take It / Sawala Sayale EP

      Then, and now, Theo’s gear is simply in a lane of its own. On both counts he takes all the time he needs to stealthily work your bones to a lather, placing an historic lineage of blues, jazz, and soul at the service of the heartiest deep house grooves. ‘I Can Take It’ is a masterclass in stealth mode soul, bringing it up from the toes to the nose with cryptically shuffled, woodcut drums bound to burning keyboard and nagging vocal in custom rhythmelodic formula. You’ll know it when you feel it! Learn More

    2. MARCELLUS PITTMAN / THEO PARRISH - Essential Selections Volume 1 EP

      Released back in 1999, the Essential Selections Vol. 1 EP saw Theo collaborate with a certain Marcellus Pittman across three cuts that still sound as vibrant today. Learn More

  • Techno

    1. A4 - Lights At Night EP

      Very proud to introduce the next Voyager Recordings instalment, a full on 9 track album from Spanish artist A4. Asier Morillas has had many releases on the hypnotic, sci fi and space theme, with such established labels like Axis Records, Warm Up Recordings, Evod, Illegal Alien and Subsist to name but a few. With this vinyl release, he takes his sound for a more dancefloor orientated outing, with his ever excellent use of drums, hats and groove on top of hypnotic synths. Learn More

    2. OMA TOTEM - The Trick EP

      Barna mainstay oma totem is dishing out the cerebral and dubby like it’s nobody’s business. 3 tripped-out accelerators courtesy of the Oyster Cult debutant, complete with an OK EG rework for good measure. Learn More

  • Experimental

    1. DJ STINGRAY 313 - Industry 4.0 EP

      DJ Stingray 313's INDUSTRY 4.0 EP is a sonic exploration into modern manufacturing concepts and the impact on humanity. Moods and titles across the EP cover artificial intelligence (LARGE LANGUAGE MODEL), the internet, and robotics (MULTI FUNCTIONAL ROBOTICS and SENSOR DATA) – all set to his signature high-energy, industrial, cyborg-style productions. Together, the tracks on INDUSTRY 4.0 work as a striking and current introspective of humanity’s uncertain evolution, moving as fast as the technology it creates. Learn More

    2. CHANTSSSS - Shyness LP

      ‘Shyness’ suggests something subtle, intricate and ethereal – but it also demands your attention. Over 10 tracks of spacious, sub-aquatic ambience, CHANTSSSS pulls you deep into his vaporous sound world. The songs themselves, a blend of ambient pop, chamber music and pulsing low end rhythms, feel cloaked in mystery. Layers of reverb and zonked vocals float in the atmosphere, moving between and through one another, mist on mist. It’s not necessarily a quiet record, the low end can shake a room if you turn the volume up, but it does feel extremely intimate – proof that some art speaks loudest in its quietest moments.
