A collection of usual suspects (Luca Cazal and Black, Brigante), omnipresent foxes (Andy Blake, Silverlining) and a brand new name (Marlon) deliver a 2 sided affair full of contrast. 3 dimensional and crisp on one side and crunchy & dusty on the other.

Following his recent release on the See Double VA, rising talent Josh Baker finds a home once again on Luca Cazal and Brigante’s imprint with his Explore EP. Original FUSE London resident Rich NxT is also onboard to deliver an elevating remix. First supported by Romanian master Barac, title track Explore is a surefire weapon for the dancefloor. JAXN’s breathy vocals effortlessly complement the peak-time bass and glistening hi-hats. On the B-side, Rich NxT adds a funkier bassline and light keys for his rework of the title track. The EP closes with Black Lines, a more formidable number with Baker employing darker elements into his production. The talented producer explains “ after receiving some exceptional vocals from JAXN, ‘Explore’ wrote itself. I wanted to create a real peak-time song, one suited for all spaces and I’m happy to see it get consistently road-tested at DC10. ‘Black Lines’ is a moodier acid track that I feel compliments ‘Explore’ massively.” Since the tender age of 16, Josh Baker's passion and enthusiasm for house music has grown from strength to strength. The young Manchester producer also curates his own successful night, You&Me, which has since gone on to take place in Leeds, Newcastle and Ibiza. His musical output has garnered support from big names such as Apollonia, Richy Ahmed, Ben Rau and Rich NxT.

See Double, the London based imprint headed by Luca Cazal and Brigante, returns for its fifth outing, a three track EP from Boris Werner titled ‘Badabing Badaboum’. A club-ready package and staple of Werner's recent sets, SD005 once again proves this Amsterdam local’s deep knowledge and understanding of how to move a dance floor.
Played by Seth Troxler and Richy Ahmed amongst others and tried and tested by both label boss Cazal and Werner on DC10’s terrace throughout this summer, title track ‘Badabing Badaboum’ is a bonafide club smasher. Leading the charge with a hypnotic bell riff alongside a chugging 4/4 pulse, Werner keeps a driving pace as sluggish and evolving low end theory enters the fray. A deftly constructed, energy filled arrangement progresses before indiscernible, tribal vocal chants take the fore, trading blows with a modulating acid bassline. On the flip Werner delivers ‘You Snooze You Looze’, a tech-infused cut adorned with rolling subs, clinical percussion and a head-snapping rhythm. Phased synthesis and dissonant sample work pushes the track into uncharted trippy territory, as processed vox stabs and crisp hi-hat patterns maintain momentum, leading to a deeply musical breakdown that offers a truly dynamic shift in mood. Closing the EP is ‘Whooos In Control’, a lesson in atmosphere and groove, which sees spaced-out synths interplay with automated stabs. Ethereal pads and warped fx float atop Werner’s swung drum programming creating that perfect roller for those early morning moments.
SD005 will be available soon in both digital and physical formats.

As its name suggests ‘Afromance I’ encompasses Luca Cazal's African ardor with upbeat vocals and a heady rhythm for an energetic cut of disco influenced analog techno. Brigante proposes a couple of dj tools to the release. 'Kehinde Tool’ where the vox is chopped and raw sounding percussion joins a subtle sub-bass throb, as opposed to the more electronic tipped 'Taiwo Tool’ that enforces a playful hook and intricate drum work. Lastly the Disco Mix of ‘Afromance I’ puts more emphasis on wailing vocals and an injection of funk to generate a feel-good dance floor viber.
