A strikingly unique dance music project from Nagasaki producer, DJ and sound director Keisuke Yamazoe, Aflex Combo has always been an impressive project, straddling several EPs stretching back to 2002 - and all centring, in the artist's own words, on heavy funk beats and obscure jazz and Latin grooves. Jazz Room Records are pleased to release this special cover of the underground club classic "Hibaros" originally by B&G Rhythm (Donny Beck & Steve Gutierrez and featuring Bobby Lyle!) and after one listen you will agree that this is a must-check 45! Over on the flip is "Something Special", a Latin-tinged jazz-funk number that's every bit as essential as the floor rocking A-side. More

Dive head first into a parallel universe where the facts of music history have been turned into pliable putty and an alternative world where Rod Temperton never met Quincy Jones, never joined Heatwave and never wrote songs for the greatest pop soul artists of the 70’s and 80’s BUT instead, hung out at a West Berlin commune with a cast of trans-continental musicians playing a hybrid of post-psychedelic rock with overtones of Ghanaian funk and early 80s synth experimentation all the while exploring the mystic tundras of the mind and the celestial palisades of the soul...

This is the parallel universe that the Suffolk based studio dwellers, Pleasurewood inhabit. Let them take you on a journey through some of Temperton’s biggest hits in only a way that Pleasurewood’s genre defying style and studio prowess will allow.

Heatwaves kicks off on vinyl, with a tasty 7” Double A side that is dance floor ready...

It’s an off-kilter affair from side one with ‘Off The Wall’ swirling in a dense fog of phased bass guitar and emerging onto the shore with jutting hips to a groove underpinned by a sweating percussion section and early forms of synthesiser soaring above like crazed Pteranodons.

On the flip side is ‘Boogie Nights’ striding slowly and purposefully into frame with an apocalyptic Bass guitar line riding a solitary cowbell before a synthesiser clarion ushers in the break and the familiar hook with Moog thunder-strikes glowering in the distance.

The 7" includes digital download of the 7-tracks album "Heatwaves".
Limited to 200 copies. More

After the sold out releases by DJ Trace & DJ Krust & Source Direct on Tempo's SPEED series here's another legendary drum and bass producer called VOYAGER.

On this release you'll find three fresh new recorded Voyager tracks. Judge for yourself but mostly enjoy the voyage! This release comes as a strictly limited 500 copies handnumbered 180gram Picture Disc Vinyl pressing with a high quality polybag sleeve (including a handnumbered qty sticker on polybag corner) + all tracks mastered by Stuart Hawkes of Metropolis Mastering London. First come, first served, no picture disc repress!

Release Note:
The second release on Eternal Soul features a limited coloured vinyl and digital Ep of tracks from the mighty old school partnership of Dj Fokus and Voyager, who drop four cuts filled with classic original DnB vibes in their own distinctive styles.

First up, Dj Fokus brings a huge classic track back from the Day with 'Online' which has stayed true to its original golden era style, but with a new line of code in the beats to give it a fresh twist. Also straight out of the vault is the completely unreleased track, 'Inteliqo' which was made around 1995 in the legendary Monroe studios, but stayed
hidden on DAT until 2021. Both tracks have those authentic 90's vibes and are sure to drop!

Following on are two tracks from Voyager that feature his distinct style and rolling beats. 'Aurora remix' takes the original deep atmospheric stepper and drops a rolling Amen into the mix that adds a new take on lifting the lush pads and melodies of the original into a more upfront style. Finishing the selection is a revisit to Voyager's original 'Aurora', which has been remastered and fattened up on the mix for a deeper journey into atmospheric bliss in his own unique style. More

Was the lesson intended?
It hangs like mist in the air
And now the throne is upended
And the lesson is the son and the heir

Was the lesson intended?
It resonates in the sky
A shockwave in the heavens
Visible to the naked eye

Was the lesson intended?

Was the lesson intended?
It has soaked into the ground
It is felt in every movement
And is audible in every sound

Was the lesson intended?
It cannot be denied
It rings loud like thunder
Leaving our poets tongue-tied

Was the lesson intended? More

* New from Innerground Records (co-founded by DJ Marky), also the home of Calibre, BassBrothers, Random Movement and Blade, comes the highly anticipated Vinyl LP from DJ Marky, XRS & Makoto, 'Soul Samba (DJ Marky & Makoto 2024 Remix)'. Breathing new life into the 2004 hit from DJ Marky & XRS, the Remix from DJ Marky and Makoto does not disappoint. This special collaboration between some of the most important figures in the genre creates a ground-breaking Single, that marks 20 years since the release of the 2004 Single 'Soul Samba / Breeze VIP', and the 21st birthday of Inneground Records - founded in 2003.

* It should come as no surprise that the EP packs a punch, when looking at the combined experience of its contributors. 'Soul Samba (DJ Marky & Makoto 2023 Remix' begins as a bold statement from veteran D&B duo DJ Marky & Makoto, laying down the foundations of what's yet to come. We're taken on a ride through morphing tempos and enchanting vocals that hammer home what this immense vicennial EP is all about - a special milestone that represents the unwavering support of loyal Innerground fans over the past two decades.

TRACKLIST:

A1 : DJ Marky & XRS - Soul Samba (DJ Marky & Makoto 2024 Remix) (LEAD SINGLE (SPECIALIST RADIO PLUGGING BY DAWBELL PR)
The Single launches with the warm Brazilian sunshine D&B that Innerground's main man Marky is known for. The frequent collaborators Marky and Makoto team up to bring a fresh perspective on one of Innerground's most loved hits. Uplifting harmonies intertwine with playful melodies to shape not only a guaranteed party starter, but a track that will put a smile on your face.

A2 : DJ Marky - Star Trippin'
Marky delivers an elegant, jazz piano number as his second instalment to the EP. A truly signature sound that Marky has become synonymous with, as breaks contrast below shimmering chords. This track has the duality to kick the night off, or to bring it to a close!

B1 : DJ Marky - (it's just a) Simple Song
Airy pads and enchanting vocals intertwine, building to a sliding bassline and groovy ricocheting synth stabs. Complemented by twinkling piano notes and koto plucks, this is an instant classic from Marky.

B2 : DJ Marky - Kochi
'Kochi' seals the EP with a bang - taking inspiration from the Japanese city, Marky turns up the pace in a high energy, neon drenched hit that races to the destination of the journey he's just taken us on. You won't want to miss out on this sensational EP from the man who's proven over the past 20 years he can do it time and time again!
