Hot on the heels of 'Inre Rydmen', the EP that the Swedish multi-instrumentalist group Tommy Awards released via Origin Peoples in mid-June, come the remixes. Drafting in a cohort of the very best, this impending release will see the likes of Jonny Nash, Coyote and Mystic Jungle Tribe jump on the remix duties, touching original productions with their unmistakable idiosyncrasies. Bartosz Kruczynski, the Polish producer better known under his ‘Earth Trax’ guise, is another name credited on the release, offering up a 15-minute epic as he reinterprets penultimate track, 'Hans Logan.' Also to see an appearance on this EP is the Romanian Eirwud Mudwasser, offering up a rendition of the track ‘Mike Sierra Foxtrot’ reworked in a similar esoteric expanse, albeit it quite a bit more lucid.
Oscillating electronics mesmerise and an arpeggiating synth melody gradually make way for marimbas. Sweeping, elongated strums of guitar stretch out like the horizon and the dialogue between various melodic elements continues throughout as we bear witness to various transformations. Irregardless of pacing, the meditative quality remaining consistent throughout each glorious edit. More

The second release on Craig Bratley?s Magic Feet is a beauty ! It's the debut release from Sweden?s best-kept secret, Tommy Awards.
Tommy Awards is a constantly evolving, free thinking musical project led by Jon Möller and Alexander Holm, which defies genres, rules and band settings, all in the name of creative freedom. This EP is the result of several jamming sessions, produced using live bass, guitars and percussion, married with a collection of drum machines and vintage synths. The 4 tracks featured blur the boundaries between the Balearic, Psychedelic and Cinematic and are the perfect soundtrack to the coming summer months.

Amy Douglas should need no introduction, having supplied song-writing and vocal duties for Horse Meat Disco, Róisín Murphy, Luke Solomon, Soul Clap, and worked with Joe Goddard on their Hard Feelings project,

Here she teams up with Craig Bratley, who dusts off the analogue synths to produce something which clearly wears its influence on its sleeve, taking in elements of Balearic, Street Soul and early Sheffield Bleep.

On the Ashigaru Dub, Craig explores these influences further, the result reminiscent of Mad Professors take on Massive Attack. More

Magic Feet are back after an extended break with a various artist EP.

On the EP you will find the bona fide modern day Balearic classic, Femi Vs KCRW - ‘Eh Oh’, The 6th Borough’s remix of Craig Bratley’s - 'Birdshell', Rich Lane's fantastic cover of New Beat classic ‘Flesh’ and for the first time on vinyl, Craig Bratley’s remix of Billy Cobham’s’ ‘One More Day To Live'. More

Craig Bratley's Magic Feet label celebrates reaching double figures, yes, the big 10, by releasing a double header from two new artists to the label. Rich Lane updates the New Beat classic 'Flesh', bringing it up to date with modern production values, and will introduce the track to a whole new generation. On the flip Peza, whose previous releases include the fantastic Buddah's Watching edit, provides 6 minutes of low slung electronic funk, all synth and 303's. Perfect for the warm up or those after hours sets and a future classic in its own right.

Kalidasa is the alias of Tim Rivers, whose previous tracks and remixes feature on labels such as World Unknown and Tusk Wax. Two tracks are featured, The Waiting Game and Apostles Of The Sun, with remixes appearing courtesy of Craig Bratley and Soft Rocks. Bratley slows the track down, adds chunky drums, vocal samples and dub Fx. Soft Rocks slowly build their mix before the track mutates for the final pay off. Another Magic Feet sureshot ! More

Magic Feet introduce three new artists on their first label sampler, as well as a remix from label owner Craig Bratley. The tracks cover various genres, taking their inspiration from House, Italo, New Beat and Disco. First up is Paresse, an alias of Swedish producer Ivan Bergren. ‘The Night Before You Came’ is a hypnotic, evolving slice of future disco. Craig Bratley’s remix shows Craig indulging in his obsession with the world of analogue synths and sees the track taking in a deeper and darker direction. Craig has also had a hand in editing ‘Lost Era’ by Kepier on the flipside, a track with a direct lineage to the Belgian New Beat sound. To round off the EP, we have Soul Tension, an alias of Tony Beardsley, who also produces as Dark Strands. ‘Suburban Life’ is a superb take on the slo-mo Techno sound. More

Magic Feet are gaining momentum after the superb Tommy Awards EP, and welcome Timothy J Fairplay to the fold for their third release. Fairplay is a rising star of the UK underground and recently opened proceedings on Bird Scarer, the new vinyl-only initiative from Andrew Weatherall, with the sprawling cosmiche flecked brilliance of “The Final Reel,” and has also contributed to the output of Astrolab and World Unknown. Fairplay has little interest in making ‘functional’ dance floor records and delivers four cutshere that plough a distinctly epic path through post 100bpm electronic music that’s framed by both cinematic and musical references. Limited to 300 hundred copies only More
