Marcos Cabral returns to L.I.E.S. with a new six track mini lp after a run of cult releases for The Trilogy Tapes as Chemotex. Here we get Cabral in top form falling somewhere in-between his last works for L.I.E.S. and Chemotex tracks. Through the record we get a rough yet refined style moving from metallic gnarled electro to melodic IDM and/or destructive the electronics as heard on "Secret Air". Our favorite being the introspective closer "Wearing Petrichor" Cover photo licensed from legendary NYC street photographer, Richard Sandler.

Dimensions Recordings is proud to welcome London Modular Alliance back to the fold with their most dynamic and exciting release to date. Following on from 2017’s superb Hands & Brains EP, the group present four new tracks on the ‘Materials EP’.
Across the release, London Modular Alliance demonstrate their depth, technicality and playfulness in an EP that will find favour with dance floor enthusiasts and electro purists in equal measure. The London based crew are now firmly instated as the UK’s prime electro proponents. From their powerful live shows and their small but perfectly sourced modular gear store in East London to their ever growing and impeccable catalogue, LMA are now established as a key artists in a reinvigorated and bristling electro scene worldwide.
Moons Delux’s ‘Know No Better (London Modular Alliance Remix)’ is a crossover masterpiece. LMA’s take on the Irish band’s song sees them use a sprawling, vocal introduction, (with a vocal that might be more reminiscent of the likes of Caribou or even Thom Yorke) which eventually breaks to give way to a devastating barrage of beats that will no doubt see a broad range of DJs find space in their bags for it. ‘No Response’ strips things right back, tight, minimal production which is brimming with elastic funk and character - electro boogie. On the flip, ‘Chrome’ is a purist masterclass, energetic percussion, deep sub bass and detailed arrangement make it a versatile cut. The EP rounds off with ‘Super Jupiter’, and by no means are LMA letting up - the very fact that a track of this stature is final cut on the EP shows the sheer craftsmanship on display.

nyc producer marcos cabral, often releasing certain dj weapons from the labels as l.i.e.s, the triology tapes gave the birth to 3 tracks with punchy energetic machine-ism. his polyrhythms(which makes us addicted,) and lo-fi hardware pulse always set some hooks to our mind, which we found in boosted drum lines and sometimes industrial noises as a1 and b1. set up with b2 which is also nicely balanced deep house tune, it is definitely capturing aesthetics of roughness and fineness as whole ep.

New York's Marcos Cabral has not so quietly been creeping up on unsuspecting victims of modern electronic music through the last years. His project as Chemotex for Trilogy Tapes singlehandly executed a type of out of sync shuffle jack not seen since the days or early Rush or even Cajual which have had floorboard pulling effects in clubs when dropped. *Download Code Included* TIP! Under his birth name, Cabral released a double lp of archive material on L.I.E.S. in 2013 which slipped under the radar yet set a precedent of what was to come as he took his sound back to his roots. An ep and a half plus some comp tracks later (you may have heard Dancing on Manhattan on Ben UFO's essential mix) and Cabral has now delivered a fully realized lp of material for 2015 the aptly titled "Buried Alive Twice" Buried Alive Twice will not send you slam jacking to death, but rather slowly deliver you to the furthest ends of your mind. It's a subtle trip that if you're not careful will leave you smack in the middle of a Hanna Barbarra bizzaro world episode wondering how to get out of its twisted reality. It swims, sinks, pushes, pulls, drives, crashes, gets sent to the hospital, gets operated on and sent home through these six songs. One may think this is a lot to deal with and well, yes, it is....

Known for his releases on Hamilton Dance and On the Prowl Party Breaks, Marcos Cabral comes from Brooklyn, New York, and needs no introduction for the house music lovers... After been fascinated with his work, we decided to approach Marcos to try to join him on our new project, A Harmless Deed, because we thought it was exactly the type of artist and music we were looking for and when we recieved the demo we were not let down at all. Land of Tar EP is a mixture of oldschool sounds with a modern and personal point of view. On the A side we can find "Pitch Lake", our favourite track on the package. Already tested and probed to be working perfectly on the dancefloor, it yet has a deep, weird and beautiful touch. B side is more classic chicago influenced, on the old Mr Fingers type, 707, synthy melodies, pads and strings... Must have!

First up we have a remix by Canadian Jeremy Glenn (We Play House, Future Classic). Jeremy turns Marcos Cabral's original "Sweet & Sour" into an epic deep house masterpiece. It's reminiscent of Raze's "Break 4 Love" while sounding modern and fresh. On A2 we have the original "Sweet & Sour". Marcos shows his ear for classic ambient music with a 5 minute piece that arpeggiates and delays into outer space. 100% Beautiful DX7 styled sounds throughout. Starting things off on the B-Side is Marcos' "It's On You" (Haunted Club Dub). And it's just that... sounding haunted with freaked out and reversed vocal snippets and jacking drums/bassline combo. A bit on the Murk productions side of things for sure. B2 is "Nothing On My Mind" which opens up with and over saturated bell sound and turns into hi-hat skipping techno with huge rattling build ups. The overlaid vocals filters in and out focus throughout leaving the listener lost in music.

Some of you might know NYC’s Marcos Cabral from his work as half the duo Runaway. Together with Jacques Renault, Runaway has stacked up a slew of releases and remixes over the past few years. The labels they’ve worked for include, DFA, Rekids, Wurst Music Co, Chinatown, I’m A Cliche, Crue-L, Mule, Endless Flight, Need Want, Fina, Solar Disco, Aus, Under The Shade, Plant Music, Turntable Lab, Spectral, Playout, Permanent Vacation, Nervous, Ohm, Tartelet, and their very own label On The Prowl. Their resume is very telling of their musical abilities. This year, Marcos has decided to push the envelope even further and create something a bit more personally reflective…his new label Hamilton Dance Records. Just as the label artwork foreshadows, the presentation becomes blurred. Edits, originals, creative sampling, it’s all lumped together with a certain vision. Special dance-floor tools being the most obvious.

On the Prowl's Party Breaks imprint is back, this time with a four-track collection of tunes from label co-owner and the other half of Runaway, Jacques Renault. Here, we find the Brooklyn-based DJ and producer doing one of the things he does best: edits. However, unlike previous releases, Renault is expanding his reach and dabbling in genres he hasn't publicly unleashed before the 12" begins with an ode to the sounds of early 90s raves (complete with air horns and a Mary J. Blige vocal sample), hops over to the deep house styles of the era with a jam that sounds right out of a Crystal Waters playbook, and finally lands on a couple of electrified, feel-good disco edits, properly (and authentically) embellished with fidgety guitars, sexy vocals, and a dash of piano glitz. As always, Renault's distinctly gritty, rythmic aesthetic underscores each track, unifying them despite the fact that each is a nod to a different era, a different style, and a different inspiratio

Simoncino (AKA Nick Anthony) from Italian super edit label No More Hits crosses the atlantic and finds a new home with On The Prowl’s sub-label Party Breaks. What immediately stands out upon first listen is the production style, not being able to tell what is a sample and what has been replayed… much like Tensnake’s mega hit. The Simoncino sound is firmly rooted in proto-house and 80’s R&B. With ingredients like ancient drum machines, arpeggiated melodies, and cheap 80’s pads, his concoction boils over with a certain cheekiness that makes listeners grin from ear to ear. All four tracks are subtle hits in their own right. Excellent EP!
