With Akumandra, one thing is for certain: you can expect the unexpected. For their 20th release, Ecuadorean producer Quixosis delivers three tracks that show off his exceptional sound design and attention to detail. The title track is a glistening juxtaposition of acidic synths and organic rhythms that steadily rise and fall. “Lisergium tremens” feels familiar, as it picks up where “Poncho Acido” left off, but descends and gnarls its way through a repeating vocal sample. “Tierra, Madera y Fuego” on the other hand, slowly builds into a march of uncertainty and belonging, with its reliable bassline, hypnotic shakers, eerie synths, and supernatural soundscapes. This release is not to be missed!

Berlin-based Patryk Molinari latest EP is all about the low-key late night. The title track, “Soul Desert”, weaves spacey synths and a rolling bassline around chilled out vocals that instantly create a mood. Toman’s fantastic remix adds a bit more energy to the low end without overpowering the atmosphere of the original. “Place 2” is a favorite. From the opening kicks to the subtle vocals and breakdown, it grabs your attention and doesn’t let go. Stream the EP below and let us know what you think!

LA-based Jonnie King calls on a crew of talented people for his latest release, MoMy (Echollete Records). The production is tight and bouncy, fun and carefree, setting the stage for Francesca Lombardo’s lovely vocals. David Hohme’s darker, atmospheric touch retains the restraint of the original, perfect for hypnotizing a late night crowd. KMLN closes out the release with an absolute burner that’s impossible not to move your body to.

Redshape’s latest release offers an intergalactic odyssey unlike any other in recent memory. ‘The Gate” relentlessly pumps forward, layering a trippy vocal sample over a driving bassline that propels you both to new heights and new depths. “Voyager” takes a more subdued, hypnotic approach, as it bleeps and bloops its way into oblivion.
Look for the full release May 18, 2018 via Clone.
