Sales Note
After the 14 track debut album from Setaoc Mass in 2022, he returns now in '23 back to his usual guise and home label SK_eleven to release a 4 track EP entitled "Satellite". More

Berlin based, Manchester born producer who needs little introduction releases the 8th installment of his SK_eleven label.
In keeping with the aesthetics of the label's previous release SK11007PT1, Sam pushes things further on Exrela, with the title track edging the boundaries of his sound, the stripped back full force drums running throughout, are met harmoniously with the otherworldly atmospheres immersing the track, while the addictive, polyrhythmic sequence keeps you hooked throughout. The B1 track "Maniac" tones things down a notch - percussive and lighthearted bells undulate while the percussion maintains the momentum and intensity. "Dispute" rounds off the EP, the cut harking back to his older, melodic roots albeit with a fresh twist. More

Label head Setaoc Mass returns to his own fledgling SK_Eleven imprint with the much-anticipated Second Chapter EP. True to form, the release deals in bleeps and melodic Sci-Fi indebted elements, yet with a harder impact and a sense of urgency calibrated for the main room floor. B-side cut Thunder Bay ventures into new territory for the artist, diffusing coarse, broken rhythms over ominous call and response synth riffs. from German artist, Scale. Taking you from crime scapes to dream scapes, this journey through a mix of jungle and drumfunk will have you wondering whether you're asleep or awake. Mysterious and brooding, Scale's Take Off EP will transport you and keep you drifting effortlessly between subtly nuanced, shadowy moods. More

Release Note:

Mancunian maestro Setaoc Mass returns for his second outing on Soma with the Fortnight EP. Drenched in his typical hard hitting, meticulously produced style, Sam's latest Soma 12" has him at the top of his game with 4 top quality tracks + a special bonus track for the digital EP.
"Time" opens the EP with a particularly hypnotic sound and a definite driving pace as swelling and pulsing background atmospheres give this a quite aggressive backbone. "Bluebells" is yet another dance floor rocking track that hits the ground running right from the start. Razor sharp poly-rhythmic structures keep the track interesting while intense percussive workouts provide the power. Title track "Fortnight" delves deeper whilst still remaining true to Sam's direct and tough sound; don't let this deeper side fool you, all the hallmarks of a proper banger remain intact! "Chaos" closes out things with a more groove laden and emotive tone as shuffling percussive elements funk things up before subtle synths work their way in giving the track a more melodic feel than the previous. Digital Bonus, "Necessary Evil", is a straight up, no nonsense dance floor workout. More

Release Note:
The debut album from Samuel Coates, AKA Setaoc Mass, crystallises the expansive, left-field vision that's been brewing in his techno-focused discography. Now, downtempo, drum & bass and electro-influenced soundscapes come through strong, as the Manchester-born, Berlin-residing artist combines a decade of dance floor experience and a lifetime of wide-ranging music tastes. The album's 14 tracks transcend the dance with rhythmic and tonal adventure. The urgency of Coates' techno records remains, though now suspended in an unbound space that switches between unpredictable body music and eyes closed moments of escape. Timeless melodies recall the golden era of UK electronica, while ultra-modern production drives the record's microscopic details home. A lovingly crafted collection of the tracks that have been kept for when the time is right. It's the sound of Samuel Coates, then Setaoc Mass - vulnerable but visceral music that demands your full attention.

The third of three samplers, comprised of selected tracks taken from Spencer Parker's new album, ‘Dance Music’ out via his own label Work Them Records.
“There was no real concept behind the album, all I knew is that I wanted to do something honest. The tracks I make are the tracks I play in my sets and tracks I want people to dance to - that’s where the title comes from.” - Spencer Parker.
'Cruising Control' hits you hard from the off with a melting pot of industrial kicks, shuffling hats and expansive stabs. Following in a similar vein 'Remember' carries that same aesthetic with the addition of some throwback keys and a hypnotic vocal sample.
On the flip 'Cash Only' keeps on the Berlin techno tip that has been a common theme running through the LP, combining a ruthless, fist pumping beat with wobbly, mesmerising synthwork, sure to get the bodies moving.
To close out the last of the samplers, Parker conjures up those insular moments caught alone in the crowd, with nothing but the music to focus on. And with that provides the perfect tone to end this "Dance Music" sampler on, an LP Parker has created with the intention of making people dance firmly at the forefront of his mind. More

Part Two of the sampler opens with the uncompromising club cut & rave inspired 'The Power. Next up, the stuttering ‘Nights And Weekends’ is a nod to electro that has boundless energy & really shows off the respected DJ and producer's diverse production skills.
Kicking off the B side, ‘Girl...' takes in the old school European techno sound relentless in its arrangement & firmly aimed at big dark spaces.
The melodic ‘Emotional Tendencies’ closes out the second of Parker’s ‘Dance Music’ offering an introspective and deep side to the LP and highlights another facet of Parker's productions.

Part One of the sampler opens with ‘It Was Just A Dream’, a ghostly cauldron of glitches, bleeps and sound bites that locks you into a dazed state of hypnosis. Next up, ‘The Oh’ hits with a taste of classic house, marrying emotive stabs, a tough kick and fizzing ride cymbals.
On the B side, ‘You’re Under My Control Now’ takes the sound industrial combining a Kraftwerk-esque metronomic breath with rapid fire toms and a dynamic kick. ‘Absolutely Raving’ closes out the first of Parker’s ‘Dance Music’ samplers offering a rave leaning techno weapon that wouldn’t be out of place in the hallowed grounds of Berghain.

Flip it over and you're hit with the whirring sci-fi elements and rattling samples in ‘Smoke In The Cockpit’. Rounding off the sampler ‘Acid Hotel’ is a more up-tempo, demonstrating rolling arpeggios and snappy snares. More

From the heavily swung 909 grooves of 'Golden Boy' and 'The Magic River' to the spaced out 'Epiphany', this release combines heady, deep tones with real driving power.

Radio Slave follows up last years 'Repeat Myself' on Spencer Parker's Work Them Records with a 12' entitled 'Werk' set to drop on 2nd June. Drawn out hypnotic cuts are Radio Slave specialities and with 'Werk' and his previous Work Them outing he delivers his trademark with unflinching confidence. The two full tracks on the EP take simple vocal samples and cast iron grooves and stretches them drum-skin tight while two accapella versions make for irresistible DJ play. While 'Werk' marries its eponymous vocal with shuffling, scraping percussion and little else to create a timeless jacking house dub the flip side's 'Jus Werk' evokes Dan Bell minimalism with fluttering, mechanical sine wave sequences More
