For Uzuri 018 we return to one of our ‘home grown’ artists – Jitterbug. Time has flown since his last release for us in 2010, but we have been quite eager to get some new material out from him for a while – and, based on feedback we’ve had, plenty of other people are keen to hear more from him too. Both his Raw Winter and Beaten Trax EPs were pretty popular releases for us and his DJ appearances always create a stir, so we’re pleased to bring you this, the Arcane Theory EP. The track sequencing on this record is pretty aggressive – front-loaded with the confrontational Rise of the Machines; a track that really lives up to its title, sounding like the production line at Cyberdyne Systems… all stomp and evil synths, like a bad mood E-Dancer. Fallout couldn’t be further from that – relaxed and making no attempt at all to get in your face. It’ll win you over, though. Just a nice, deep groove and a lovely, phased beat. Could play it for hours… The whole of the flip is devoted to Nomads, a chiming, acidic wander; nearly eleven minutes in length. The kick’s never at the fore on this one – most of the action occurs at the mid and high frequencies – a resonant 303, lots of hi hats and, later, synths which expand on the Eastern-flavour of the track title.

The Londinium EP is the latest release on Uzuri Recordings and welcomes Chicago Skyway back to the fold. Not that he’s been away too long, having produced a full 12” release and contributed to the ‘From Chicago Turin Amsterdam & Dublin With Love EP’ just last year. We also welcome Hakim Murphy to the label – with his credentials it was only a matter of time before our paths crossed!As the title suggests, this release was inspired, conceptually at least, by our nation’s capital, and it’s apparent that Sean has spent quite enough time here to get the gist of the place, with the B-side tracks entitled Traffic and Noise, respectively. I’m sure he loves it here, really.Musically, he keeps it closer to his Windy City heart – very clearly reflecting his roots, in fact. As a DJ and club promoter in mid 90s Chicago, Sean frequently shared the decks with some of the city’s biggest talents at that time – Cajmere, Gene Farris and Spencer Kinsey (Gemini) among them, and one could say that there’s an audible Relief flavour to A-side, London Streets, with it’s stripped-back, hypnotic stomp. It’s fitting that Hakim Murphy remixes the track, coming from similar roots within Chicago’s scene, and his own reworking retains the drawn-out essence of the original but brings a whole new hips-and-shoulders groove to the track. On the flip, Traffic plays out a very simple analogue groove over a clapping 808 percussive pattern. The sonic equivalent of being stuck in a stationary car with Larry Heard, perhaps? Or maybe just a really sweet track. Noise can be taken more literally, I think. A slow, static-filled monster of a track – not abrasive for the sake of it – instead switching between muffled warmth and the hiss of synths working overtime. Four for the floor

Uzuri is proud to present this first release of 2011 – a sweet four tracker from a crew you may not have encountered before.Pittsburgh Track Authority is a stateside three-piece comprising Preslav Lefterov, Thomas Cox ( Who is responsible for the excellent “Infinitestatemachine” Blog ) and Adam Ratana – three longtime friends and musical compatriots who have, between them, been submerged in music and music production for many years. Collectively, this project is a rather more recent endeavour, though you wouldn’t necessarily guess that from these accomplished and self-assured tracks.First up, Duskshaped (a collaboration with fellow Pittsburgh native, Nice Rec), lays down the smooth, organic feel of the release, with some serious bass and keys pressure.Vertical Impact is a straight-up head-nodder – slow and moody; crackling drum samples and a gradually mounting set of synths that blow the track up to several times its original size. Not feeling any pressure to pick up the pace, Bloodlands pits crisp tones over shuffling drums and a thick-set bottom end, eventually giving way to an insistent, chanted call to the floor.77B concludes things for this release – once again with some incredibly infectious bass and organ work. Some classy strings complete the picture, over a restrained drum machine workout.‘The First Four’, then, but certainly not the last. You heard it here first.

Move D's The ‘Hydrophonic EP’ features musical contributions from friends Gal Aner (Juju) and Eric D. Clark, reflecting David’s long-held love of collaboration. The record opens with ‘Your Personal Healer’. Against the backdrop of a disco break, a filtered piano rises and falls mesmerically. Vocal spectres float, as further elements are artfully woven into the mix. Perhaps most notably, some smooth guitar licks are provided by Juju (of Juju & Jordash). There’s a playful feel to ‘Things Will Come... (...for Those Who Wait)’ – a perfectly compact track which is somewhat reminiscent of early Herbert material with it’s flat kick drum and sample-based composition. The reclined groove of ‘Sur un Bateau avec Eric’ occupies the whole of the second side – evoking memories of a Summer now just out of reach. Eric D Clark whispers in French and wind chimes sound delicately, over a square wave bassline that animates the track for the dancefloor. It’s as classy and sophisticated a release as you’d expect from Move D – for the more tasteful DJs! More
