Every release is party guaranteed material with a deep elegant twist that makes his music stand out like no other.

It’s been 3 years since the last Basic Soul Unit EP on Lab.our and the label co-head is back to top form! Loose, melodic and funky, the Toronto producer stretches his legs across 4 tracks in this kaleidoscopic gem of an EP.
On A1 is ‘Behavoural Issue’, a frenetic, crunchy and off-kilter number that will have you contorted in distortion with all arms and legs on the dancefloor.
‘Rising Over The East’ marches in next, a deep jacking head trip to the Orient opium den with its endless arpeggiators. On the B-side, the heavy broken club banger ‘Propulses’ harkens back to the glory rave days without mimicry. A Basic Soul Unit interpretation with his undeniable footprint in the mix.
‘My Heart Skips’ turns the dial down several notches into deeper house terrain. The soulful ride begins as an easy cruise before deftly lurching into an odd rhythmic fractal workout that the producer has become known for.
Sealing an untouchable reputation in the world of broken soulful lo-fi techno, Basic Soul Unit casts an even wider net to captivate audiences with this must-have EP.

Basic Soul Unit returns with another deadly EP on Dolly, further investigating the thin dividing line between techno and broken beats. A-side "Wallow" is a menacing big room stormer with a delicate pad breakdown, with Voiski providing an alternate more driving techno version of it with a splendid melodic twist midway through the track. "Radiate" and "Joyride" on the B both have BSU's signature rhythmic ideas and fresh energy with "Radiate" even going full-on Broken Rave! "Joyride" is that upbeat funky techno nugget that's going to sit in your DJ bag forever.

Stuart Li, better known as Basic Soul Unit, has been dropping quality records via a litany of highly respected imprints like Ostgut Ton, Crème Organization, Mule Electronic and Versatile over the past decade. Hypnotic and deep, but always funky, Li now brings his rugged house to the Dekmantel imprint for the very first time, serving up this finely crafted follow-up to his 2012 debut album. Delivering ten Detroit and Chicago-inspired house tracks of the finest calibre, Li's offset and grubby bruk drums are a constant nod to the dance floor, while his melodies lean towards an unparalleled industrial edged emotion. From the LFO-like synth-line and crunchy jack of 'Fate In Hand', to the Levon Vincent-esque techno shuffle 'n mutter of 'Landlocked' and the Morphosis-gone-wild style of 'Unwavered', on the to the dark subbass welt of 'The Rift Between' and the relentless floor destroyer 'Temptress': 'Under The Same Sky' sets the bar fly high for raw yet extremely original house music.

New Kanada is proud to present the new EP by Basic Soul Unit. With past releases on seminal house label Versatile, acid crazy Mathematics, deep and dark Philpot, Japan’s Mule Electronic and his own imprint, Left Of The Dial, Stuart Li (aka Basic Soul Unit) has crafted a very specific sound for himself. Part old school house, part new school jack, and sprinkled with a serious dose of Chicago acid. Future soul from the memories of warehouse parties, reggae nights and Caribbean acid. Stuart can evoke clear memories of Larry Heard or Joe Smooth, while at the same time taking cues from the acidic grooves of early Adonis. Combine this with a serious mechanical groove, and we have lift-off. “Hope.Unity.Vision” is one of those cuts that, when heard on a loud soundsystem, can completely take over the room. Sensuous, deep and hypnotic - until the killer kick drops and then things start to dissolve. “Basic Necessity” is the mixing tool to rock the house down. Off-kilter acid express, straight to the depths of real techno. Black moments, lights flashes, and the swing to jack your body. We end with the aggressive “Rhythm No. 1”, which takes cues from early Industrial EBM It intermingles so deep into the soul and spirit of early Chicago, that we get lost in the raw rhythm. A gem in the rough, only for the headstrong More

Going back to classics could fall so easily, luckily for Skudge Presents, the persistent and class-act of Mark Broom leaves the mediocre in its rubble.
Eric Cloutier: "Broom is a legend. i can't even count how many of his records i own. both of these are pure fire - loving it!" The kicking A-side, Moments1, with the high paced energy and flirtations with the Dutch classic style of Techno-House crossover brings a smile upon DJs and dancers alike - without going too much into nostalgia, this track is sure to find its way through the peak times. Moments2 on the flip submerges deeper into this record’s vibe, with a progression that throbs more than kicks, with a saw tooth lead that keeps the moody atmosphere intact.

The long awaited album on SKUDGE! The Pig on firing form here! We expect this on to go right off... double vinyl set. The LP features more pacey excursions while the additional 10" features more experimental and ambient material...BIG TIP! Label Copy: "Often referred to as 'The Pig' and rarely spotted without shades, Mike 'Aardvarck' Kivits has remained a compelling figurehead within the Dutch underground for decades, happily flitting between down tempo and high octane styles from release to release and generally sounding like no-one else out there. Kivits has developed a strong affiliation with the Skudge Records operation which commenced with his humongous remix of the Swedish act's "Convolution" in 2010. Having committed two full 12? releases to the Skudge Presents cause, news now arrives of a full Aardvarck long player on the label. Due for release in September, the cryptically-titled Co In Ci features eight new Aardvarck productions from Kivits and represents the ninth album the Dutch producer has released in the 13 years since his 2002 debut LP for Delsin."

After 2014's set of acclaimed releases on L.I.E.S, Creme Organization and Rush Hour, Jorge Velez comes to Skudge White to drop a proper dose of relentless subterranean Techno. 4 tracks created with the adventurous dancefloor in mind. This is the sound of Velez at full command. "Les Méandres" leads the heavy charge as factory rhythms carry a sinister, echoed call-and-response synth pattern. Next "Blue Bottle", the heart of the 12" according to Velez, brings volcanic, hissing synths to an intense peak over hammering rhythms. "Tunnel" is the sound of "the most intense moment on the floor when it's just a blur of all sounds and lights and the pound of the drums" says Velez. Furious and abandoned yet with the floor firmly in view.
"Hydrocution" ends the 12" with a hypnotic, shining metallic combination of rhythm and dissonant synths. The original artwork is by Pauline Gouablin, who co-created the artwork on Velez's "Territories" LP for L.I.E.S More
