A brand new vinyl edition of GODTET II, the second full-length album from Sydney instrumental collective GODTET, led by Godriguez — acclaimed producer for The Great Mixtape by Sampa the Great. Originally released in 2019 and long out of print, GODTET II is now recut and repressed with refreshed artwork and new mastering attention. The album was recorded largely in one day in Melbourne and is rooted in live improvisation — but with a twist: the band performs over a curated bank of samples created by Godriguez, treating them as launch points for collective improvisation. The result is a unique fusion of beat tape and live jazz ensemble, with a warm, open sound and deep rhythmic undercurrent. Features guest appearances from Simon Mavin (Hiatus Kaiyote) and Ziggy Zeitgeist (30/70), linking two major voices in the Australian underground scene. GODTET II was championed on release by House Shoes (who named it "album of the year") and Gilles Peterson, who broke his own Melbourne-only rule on Worldwide FM to play the Sydney group. The album helped establish GODTET's cult following and remains a touchstone for modern instrumental fusion from the region.

London-based deep house duo Saison debut on NYC’s Nu Groove, with their four-track ‘Return 2 Jak EP’ now on wax. From uplifting, vibrant house releases like ‘Spark It Up’ to their groove-laden remix of Mike Dunn’s ‘It’s A Groove Thang’, Saison continue to show their versatility with this collection of tougher tracks built for the underground. Opening the EP is ‘This Is The House’, loaded with deep synths and an undeniably club-ready bounce, featuring alluring spoken-word vocals from Chicago native Black Widow. Next up, ‘Sugar’ and hard-hitting title track ‘Return 2 Jak’ further demonstrate Saison’s cool, deep house sound. ‘Respect The Lie’ follows with its piano-led groove paving the way for atmospheric synth, closing out this special four-track vinyl; a must have for crate diggers and collectors of fresh, deep house.

Rahaan is a US edit master who can turn his hand to disco, house, soul, funk and r&b all with equal elan. He's been doing it for 20 years but it's still exciting to hear a new one from the legend, and the 11th Street Edits outing is another beguiling one. 'Impure' is a ragged and rugged, low-slung deep house drum track with cat squeals and crashing hits striking a menacing tone. 'Answer The Damn Phone' is a surging cosmic disco sound with driving arps and incongruous vocals before closer 'Intense' brings more raw, physical rhythms to a driving deep house cut.

The third volume of the Excursions in Gwoka series brings forth fresh sun-bathed rhythms, perfect for summer. It is a collaboration between Guadeloupean legends Djenmbi, who is the synth composer of Akiyo's 'Deboule', and master ka player Klod Kiavue, alongside Montreal electronic twosome Topium. Their cover of the traditional folkloric song 'Bo Bay Lamen' (which translates as "to give a hand") takes it into lush soundscape territory with golden hues and gentle underlapping drums. It is complemented by Afro-cosmic and dancefloor-ready remixes from Kay Suzuki and Aroop Roy, who makes his Beauty & The Beat debut. Also featured is 'Ti Bedon,' a modern electronic gwoka fusion track from the quartet's 2022 CD-only album.

La Sape Records is proud to present a new vinyl edition of GODTET III — the third and final LP in the formative GODTET trilogy, led by guitarist and producer Godriguez. Originally released in 2020, GODTET III marked the culmination of an intensive three-year period of playing, recording, and evolving. Recorded entirely through open improvisation, without samples, compositions or predefined cues, the album captures a band deeply attuned — performing without a net, yet with total trust. The result is a bold and meditative document of a group crystallising its identity in real time. If GODTET I was an explosive coming-together and II was a fusion of samples and live band, then III is the return to origin: stripped back to pure instinct, refined through experience. It's the clearest expression yet of what the GODTET sound had become — at least, in that moment. The group features some of the most distinct players from the new generation of Australian music, drawing from diverse lineages: a head priest of the Cuban Ifá tradition, the stepson of one of Australia's greatest funk musicians, a drummer regarded among the country's most important contemporary players, and a deeply expressive pianist from New Zealand. Together, under Godriguez's direction, they form something greater than the sum of their parts. With GODTET, the studio becomes an extension of the stage: live, immediate, and unconcerned with genre. From ambient soundscapes and devotional jazz to swirling psychedelia and beat-driven exploration, GODTET III closes the chapter on the project's foundational era — while hinting at where it might go next.
