Full of bounce and experimentation in equal measure, ‘Triple Transit,’ Braille’s new album for Hotflush is about leaving his Sepalcure project (with Machinedrum) in the rear mirror, moving back to New York and using its energy to fuel new moves, confronting our hyper layered world and overcoming personal difficulties by being creative.Focused squarely on utilising modular synthesis in sprawling studio sessions, the album covers a wide stylistic range and draws on the artist’s formidable battery of experience to craft a body of work that packs real emotional punch as well as a dancefloor sensibility.We had a quick chat with him to wet your appetite…Praveen Sharma aka Braille:Moving on from Sepalcure“That period of time when Sepalcure was at its peak was really inspiring. I’m still really in awe and humbled by the fans. It’s always amazing to hear about how music you’ve made has brightened up other people’s lives in some way, but ‘Triple Transit’ is really about transitioning from that period to something new. I’m intentionally not using many vocal samples on this album. That became quite a crutch for Sepalcure and I wanted to try and find ways to evoke those emotions and connect with the audience in other ways.”The roots of his Bounce‘Sour Patch Kiss’ and ‘While We’re Free’ are inspired by classic house and some early Detroit stuff. Songs like ‘Big Fun’ (Inner City), ‘I Wanna Be there’ (Model 500) and slowed down ‘Sex on The Beach’ (DJ Assault) have stuck with me since the beginning. I used to listen to this slowed down and doubled version of ‘Sex on The Beach’ on an early Juan Atkins mix cd on REPEAT when I was in high school.Getting ambientTriple Transit slows down and transitions through a bit of sadness and eventually acceptance at the end of the album. A lot of the music I’m making these days is trying to recreate that manic feeling so many of us have in 2024. Between social media, ridiculous hustle culture expectations and depressing global and national political events, it’s hard to not feel overwhelmed. I feel like Triple Transit is kind of a parabolic curve from mania to joy to a sober realization that yeah, actually the world is just fucked but somehow we carry on.

Hotflush presents its first EP from Braille: otherwise known as Praveen Sharma, based in Brooklyn, New York City and one half of the outstanding duo Sepalcure, who have already released two acclaimed EPs and a remix package, cementing their signature sound on the label. Following his debut single as Braille (“The Year 3000” on Rush Hour) earlier this spring, the “A Meaning” EP delves further into Praveen’s love for house music, resulting in four bubbling, soulful house tracks infused with the same unique style brought to Sepalcure’s productions, jacking 808 rhythms adorned with tasteful sample manipulations and a warm, emotive foundation

2 Corkers From Kal!! TIP Lando is known for teaming up with Low Limit as Lazer Sword, a future hip-hop from group from the Bay Area. His solo tracks are freaked out juggernauts of electronic music, primarily experimenting with various mutations of house. Dense instrumentation, analog synth and drum machine work, complex melodies, and creeping basslines are pooled from his musical obsessions with 90's RnB, classic house, freestyle, garage, Detroit Techno, early synthesizer music, Timbaland, and? to be honest, everything in between. 'Maneuver' is a sure shot banger, a futuristic synth piece with heavy garage leanings and even a hint of Robin S' classic 'Show Me Love'. On the flip we find 'Run It', a more introvert electro fused b-boy classic from future times.

We are pleased to announce the debut release of a young producer from the UK, BNJMN. His adventurous electronic sound is one we haven't heard in a while, and excited us on first listen. While on one hand his music has a traditional sound (early 90's UK), BNJMN does create a world of his own due to the versatility in his productions. It is this versatility that creates an exciting hybrid sound, therefore pushing the envelope and making it sound very current, future even. Welcome to the world of BNJMN, we love it!

It's not every day that we receive demo's from new artists that totally rock our world, but when its happens it's a joy and a reminder of why we are still doing this. And so tears of joy rolled onto the speakers when we played Policy's demo's. When contacted Policy he told us he is from NYC, is a part time movie director and only started making music recently. Out of the bunch of tracks we received 'Specialty Party' and 'Light Over Fort Lee' form his debut EP. Both tracks challenge the beat spectrum once again and definitely speak his cinematic mind. Expect more music from Policy on Rush Hour later this year. He surely is our contender for best newcomer of 2011.
