Montecarla - Il Sesso Della Strega
Montecarla is a new Italian duo born from the idea of creating the soundtrack to a film that doesn’t exist. Blending modern disco, Italian library music and playful cinematic flair, they turn the sensual and ironic mood of 70s/80s erotic soundtracks into something fresh and contemporary.
Their debut album, “Primo Appuntamento,” introduces the Montecarla universe: a fictional Mediterranean city where elegance, desire and mischief shape the music’s identity. Real instrumentation, theatrical details and a refined groove transform each piece into a miniature scene familiar, yet entirely reinvented.
Montecarla position themselves at the crossroads of nostalgia and innovation, offering a stylish, compact sound ideal for playlists exploring Italian groovers, nu-disco, lounge atmospheres and retro-future aesthetics.
“Primo Appuntamento” is both an introduction and an invitation seductive, cinematic, unmistakably Italian.

Capofortuna - Pianobar
Next Polyamore Recs release comes from Capofortuna – brothers Riccardo Cardelli (Funk Rimini) & Francesco Cardelli, and Davide Santandrea (Rame, Pastaboys) – the instrumental funk-jazz trio renowned for their ground-breaking productions and musical soundscapes. Here the Italian trio unveil a fusion of sounds with some heart felt nostalgia on their ‘Punti Di Vista EP’. In true Capofortuna style, this uber classy record pushes boundaries and is a further testament to the band’s constant evolution and commitment to musical innovation, all recorded at their boutique studio in Rimini.
The title cut is a collaboration between Capofortuna and producer Andrea ‘Neve’ Recla, highlighting their experiments with a Casio CZ3000 synth, adding a more futuristic electronic dimension. On ‘Venusian’ you will hear plenty of the Moog Rogue and the Roland JX3P, both machines together paying homage to Rimini’s vibrant arcade culture of the 90s. ‘Pianobar’ takes inspiration from the same musical moments of the 90s, adding melancholic trumpet flourishes played by Jacopo Buda. ‘Acid Basico’ nods its head to the darker sounds of Italo disco and Chicago house, seamlessly blending dub elements to create a genre-defying experience. Reflecting the trio’s shared musical heritage, ‘Punti Di Vista’ showcases Capofortuna’s ability to transcend genres at the same time staying true to their Italo-funk Rimini roots.

djrum - Showreel pt1
Djrum is a perennially acclaimed underground artist, since his first release in 2010 who’s quietly built a list of fans that reads like a who’s who of contemporary dance music. As an artist, Djrum has formed a reputation for his unique fusion of a range of genres ranging from jazz, hip hop and dubstep to ambient and techno. His music swells with oceanic bass laded beats, cavernous atmospherics and deeply emotive melodies. An accomplished DJ his compositional approach feels like a natural collage of his influences which has seen him release for the likes of the Zenker Brothers Ilian Tape imprint as well as the influential 2nd Drop label, plus remixes for Ninja Tune and Domino. Felix now steps up to the plate at R&S with one of his most visionary releases to date. Deeply meditative melodies twist and turn through stuttering rhythms and pulsing low bass, hypnotic pads and woozy atmospherics. Manuel’s music somehow manages to retains the urgency and dynamic pressure of the dance floor with the intimacy and elegant detailing of the best headphone music. A natural fit for R&S, there is a full length Djrum album in the pipeline in 2018 - looks like it’s going to be an exciting year ahead.

Lance Desardi - Boing Boom Shox
Limited Orange Vinyl EP
Dallas Native Lance Desardi arrived in Los Angeles alongside his roommate JT Donaldson sometime around 1999. At that time I was the head buyer & managing L.A’s largest independent dance music shop in the heart of Hollywood “Beatnonstop” on Melrose Avenue. We had just put out a double pack vinyl on Beatnonstop and a single on PCH feat. Myself & Cpen on both.
Lance & J.T were introduced to me by Chris Penny aka CPen who was also a Dallas transplant to L.A and as chance would have it they were both looking for jobs. The two had been sojourning in Chicago for about two years under the tutelage of Spencer Kincy aka Gemini and the House Mayor of Chicago Derrick Carter.
I hired them both and we soon became fast friends. I would lend them pieces of gear and keyboards etc to work on projects and suddenly we had this little community of producers and artist’s working on beats, bringing them into the shop for “show & tell.”
This created a healthy atmosphere of us all pushing each other to make songs for the labels. This is one of the reasons Seductive, Pacific Coast House & Pacific Traxx etc were started to house the different projects and alias’s of us at that time.
One day Lance showed up to work at the shop beaming from ear to ear a some pep in his step. Him and another co-worker Jaime G had gone into the studio that week and banged out “Jazz Salad.”
As soon as Lance slipped in the DAT tape and the track came thundering through the speakers with Jaime’s deep Latin intro I knew it was going to be a big tune in the underground. Such a groove and so infectious it is undeniable even today 20 odd years
later.
So nice to see it back out on wax and not at the hefty discogs price tag of over a hundred quid! The flip side “Boing” is a deep late night groover that fits nicely into a Mark Farina style set with bonus beats to boot. Not to be missed. Classic.
Words above from Sam Robson of Pacific Coast House.

The Coastal Commission - Our Music
I met Aaron Parr back in 1992 aka the golden era of electronic dance music. Everything was kicking off in the L.A Underground and he was working slap dap in the epi-center at Beatnonstop Records on Melrose Avenue in the heart of Los Angeles. At the time I was living in Santa Barbara still doing my college radio show "The Joy of X" and coming down to L.A on the weekends almost every week since 1989. Aaron had been a mainstay down the street at Streetsounds Records where my then Young friend 19 year old Steve Loria worked alongside warehouse dj & underground legend Barry Weaver.
These were heady times. Clubs, after-hours and renegade break in warehouse jams were the order of the day…every day! The shops fueled the dj's with the dope records and the ravers with the party flyers, the Record Stores were the hub of the whole scene and the key was befriending these upwardly mobile soon to be underground superstars if you wanted fat slabs of wax AND to know where the real deal undergrounds were shaking…literally.
In 1992 I got selected for the U.S Olympic Basketball team and headed back to Europe in an effort to make it to Barcelona and get smashed for the GOLD by the dream team in front of the whole World…no thanks! We got knocked out by Petrovic and the Czechs right b4 Barcelona!
Anywho after 3 months I returned to Cali and there had been a shift, Steve Loria moved up the street from Streetsounds & opened Beatnonstop and it was HUGE! It had quickly become the largest independent record store in the U.S. The scene was massive, everything had exploded. I got in where I fit in and started a weekly Techno club "Happy Planet" on Tuesdays and a House club "NYC" with Doc Martin on a Friday. Both were rammed.
Aaron the industrious Brit from Nottingham & his bredren Dave Fong went to work early too, putting out the Rudiments EP on Worldship Records and then following up with Psycho Ray in 1998.. In 1998 II closed my Culture shop "Soma" down in Santa Barbara, packed up my studio & sound system and moved to L.A official. I had gotten the offer to manage Beatnonstop on Melrose after Steve Loria left and jumped at the chance.
I quickly put together the Beatnonstop Record Label, releasing a double pack "Pacific Coast House EP" feat myself and local producers Aztech Sol, CPen and Kenneth Graham/Steve Loria. I then kicked off PCH Records with "Rhodes Through Space" and after a drunken rendezvous at the Hall of Records Studio one night I signed Aaron & Daves Teflon Dons "My Vice" to the labels.
Vice was right down my alley a dark, grimy acid track with menacing Pacino samples.
After a buying trip for Beatnonstop to NYC. Harry the Bastard from Watts took me down to meet fellow Brit Stefan at Dance Tracks in Manhattan where I found the sample "Our Music" on an accapella in the bins. Super inspired after two weeks trolling round every record distributors warehouse (Watts, Nemesis, Syntax, Downtown etc) and hitting every record store in Manhattan (Vinyl Mania, Discorama, Frankie Bones shop, Satellite and on and on) I came home to L.A and me and Nate loaded up the Emu 64 Ultra sampler and penned "Our Music."
The track is obviously very New York inspired and was received well by Big Apple Dj's David Morales, Junior Vasquez, Roger Sanches & Baby Hec Romero. I would definitely say this track was a slow burner elsewhere and took off later getting the nod from DJ Deep in Paris, + Terry Francis, Eddie Richards and Mr. C in the UK.
It got no love in L.A surprisingly but everywhere else across the country with Miguel Migs and DJ Garth in the Bay, King Britt in Philly and DJ Pope in Baltimore. Now it's back on wax after 25 years remastered by the mighty Martin Iveson and I think the World is finally ready!

The Coastal Commission - Bring Down The Walls

Jesse Outlaw - Let It Go
Coastal Commission “Bring Down the Walls”
“Bring down the Walls” was a nod to Raze’s “Break for Love”, Robert Owens “Bring
Down the Walls” and Ritchie Hawtin’s use of the Roland 606 throughout “Sheet One.”
We gave the tune a Californian psychedelic twist with conga laden drums, a moody
synth, low pulsing 303 patterns + Benjamin Zephaniahs patois call to “Move the Body
Rhythmwize!”
The first PCH releases had dropped Worldwide to International acclaim from DJ’s far
and wide across the Globe with support in London, Paris & New York. However the
local scene here in L.A that preached “Love, inclusion & Unity” was anything but that.
L.A at that time was very tribal & divided up into 3 camps. If you weren’t affiliated with
any of them (aka independent) then you were pretty much locked out of getting any kind
of gig support or the Dj’s from those camps actually playing the music.
The local feedback from Dj’s was that what we were making wasn’t “house,” but
“Techno” which was absurd to me. “Bring Down the Walls” was a mantra to “move the
bod”y and in doing so “bring down the walls” of separation not just in L.A but throughout
society in general. Thank goodness for support from people like Terry Francis, Eddie
Richards, DJ Deep & Philly Stalwart King Britt.
After years of copies going for upward of $100+ on Discogs the now freshly remastered
copies by At Jazz’s Martin Iveson are finally hitting the platters this Spring.
Jesse Outlaw “Let it Go”
I met Jesse at Beatnonstop Records on Melrose Ave with Miguel Placencia in the late
90’s. Miguel (RIP) was a mainstay in the Underground scene and had always been very
supportive of my endeavors. He had had success with a huge release on Yellow
Orange and was working with Jesse under the moniker “When Worlds Collide.” I signed
“Brighter Days” & “Set you Free” from them and released the tracks on my Seductive
imprint. They told me that they were making the tracks on a Sony Playstation “Music
Now” program and I was like FFS “What.s more Underground than that!?”
Later Jesse gave me some of his solo work. The track “Let it Go” was never mastered &
only ever cut to Dub-plate and featured on my 1st PCH mix “Pacific Coast House
Sounds.”
It has now been mastered by Martin Iveson and is available in all it’s glory.
The dreamy vocal “You need to let it go” beckons over the top of driving percussive
Latin beats and church organ which is a great compliment to the flip side of “Bring down
the Walls.”
All in all two West Coast stompers now finally available remastered on PCH in Orange
vinyl.

“Bring down the Walls” was a nod to Raze’s “Break for Love”, Robert Owens “Bring
Down the Walls” and Ritchie Hawtin’s use of the Roland 606 throughout “Sheet One.”
We gave the tune a Californian psychedelic twist with conga laden drums, a moody
synth, low pulsing 303 patterns + Benjamin Zephaniahs patois call to “Move the Body
Rhythmwize!”
The first PCH releases had dropped Worldwide to International acclaim from DJ’s far
and wide across the Globe with support in London, Paris & New York. However the
local scene here in L.A that preached “Love, inclusion & Unity” was anything but that.
L.A at that time was very tribal & divided up into 3 camps. If you weren’t affiliated with
any of them (aka independent) then you were pretty much locked out of getting any kind
of gig support or the Dj’s from those camps actually playing the music.
The local feedback from Dj’s was that what we were making wasn’t “house,” but
“Techno” which was absurd to me. “Bring Down the Walls” was a mantra to “move the
bod”y and in doing so “bring down the walls” of separation not just in L.A but throughout
society in general. Thank goodness for support from people like Terry Francis, Eddie
Richards, DJ Deep & Philly Stalwart King Britt.
After years of copies going for upward of $100+ on Discogs the now freshly remastered
copies by At Jazz’s Martin Iveson are finally hitting the platters this Spring.
Jesse Outlaw “Let it Go”
I met Jesse at Beatnonstop Records on Melrose Ave with Miguel Placencia in the late
90’s. Miguel (RIP) was a mainstay in the Underground scene and had always been very
supportive of my endeavors. He had had success with a huge release on Yellow
Orange and was working with Jesse under the moniker “When Worlds Collide.” I signed
“Brighter Days” & “Set you Free” from them and released the tracks on my Seductive
imprint. They told me that they were making the tracks on a Sony Playstation “Music
Now” program and I was like FFS “What.s more Underground than that!?”
Later Jesse gave me some of his solo work. The track “Let it Go” was never mastered &
only ever cut to Dub-plate and featured on my 1st PCH mix “Pacific Coast House

Vinicius Honorio & R.M.K - Oracles
(Green vinyl) James Ruskin's Blueprint Records celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2026. Kicking off the festivities Vinicius Honorio returns to the label but this time it's alongside R.M.K who makes his Blueprint debut.
Vinicius Honorio is a Brazilian-born, London-based DJ and producer whose vision of techno is built on hypnotic repetition, gritty textures and emotional weight. With a career spanning over 2 decades, Vinicius has emerged as a powerful voice in contemporary techno - raw, focused and unflinchingly honest. His productions blend relentless drive with intricate groove, often laced with haunting melodic undertones and has released music on the likes of Figure, Token, Mord and SK_eleven, as well as Blueprint.
Hailing from London, R.M.K is the alias of Fossil Archive label head Roberto, representing a faster and more intense take on his unique brand of Techno. During his 20+ year career in music, he has formed friendships and worked in partnership with other respected artists such as Trevino (Marcus Intalex), Jamie Anderson, Robert Owens, Goldie and Nastia. Although the focus is always on the very heart of the most raucous of raves, R.M.K never shies away from groove and funk.

Undesignated remixes is an expansive project containing 12 remixes of tracks from dgoHn’s iconic 2020 full-length by some choice artists from in and around the Love Love sphere. Remixes that take dgoHn’s unique razor-sharp original productions and send them through a loop and round the twist, some stripped down, some messed up, most but not all maintaining the speedier tempos that dgoHn likes to work around. The result is a collection of seriously futuristic electronic music with some stylistic leanings towards labels like braindance or drumfunk or jungle but completely genre-eluding as a whole, reshaped from the minerals of the original LP by some absolute dons of their craft.
Opening the album Equinox does a fantastic job highlighting the lushness of ‘Puppet’ layering sky-high sunshine pads before sliding into Meat Beat Manifesto’s heavy sci-fi acid dub version of ‘Daisy Takes Two’. A woozy remix of ‘Lucky Gonk’ by Macc & dgoHn marks the first new material from them as a duo since ’09 and Wisp also makes a rare appearance bringing his inimitable post-rephlexian vibes on an agonisingly wonderful, melody-heavy remix of 'Electryon'. Skee Mask’s choice of remixing ‘Robin’s Windmill’ turns the original into a bundle of writhing rhythms organically unfolding with swelling ambient tones. Homegrown heroes Rognvald & Scrase both opt for pumped up post-breakcore in unconventional time signatures while Djrum emphatically provides the LP’s dose of peak jungle choppage, tempering the drum breaks of ‘Ninnyhammer’ with a blistering amen. Also featured on the LP are crisp and beefy drum workouts courtesy of Coco Bryce and Forest Drive West, visceral and apocalyptic half-time bass from Activia Benz affiliated duo Quavis and virtuosic noir-jazz tearout from fellow East-Anglian Carl Brown.
