Whole mess of vinyl rips.
Blue Daisy & Anneka - Raindrops EP
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Yet another stunning release from Blue Daisy, this time featuring vocals from Anneka and remixes from Permanent Vacation's John Talabot, and Sunken Foal. The two original tracks from Kwesi Darko aka Blue Daisy are as lush and affecting as anything we've heard from him yet. In 'Raindrops' Anneka sounds like she's been summoned to haunt, drifting between rickety drum machines, burred electrobass and Burial-esque atmospheres while a matrix of seasick compression effects enhance her spectral grace. 'Blood Petal Roses' is a grandly symphonic construction, breathing deeply with chest swelling bassline and a strong 4/4 pulse for use on the dreamiest dancefloor. Nu-disco don John Talabot spins 'Raindrops' as a gauzy, mid-tempo cosmic roller and Sunken Foal do their sumptuous pastoral 'tronica thing with 'Blood Petal Roses'. Imagine This Mortal Coil crossed with Flying Lotus and you'll know the feeling.

DJ Madd - On Top / Need This
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---DJ Madd kicks out the dubstep rave jams on latest excurson for Black Box. The blatant force of 'On Top' has made this a winner with all the top dubstep jocks at Rinse FM, while 'Need It' goes more experimental with surging electro synthlines and rave diva vocal snippets.

Raime - Raime EP
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Massively tipped debut from this new artist and label; Raime, and Blackest Ever Black Recordings. The UK based duo have forged one of the finest contributions to the darkened post-dubstep canon we've yet heard, distilling the essence of Shackleton's most maudlin moments with labyrinthine reverbs and salt-cured percussion over three tracks allegedly built from arcane industrial and post-punk samples. This 12" is already causing much consternation in the blogosphere; with Altered Zones, Simon Reynolds' Blissblog and Fact Magazine all singing its praises. 'Retread' initiates the session with an unnerving arrangement of suspended, ceremonial drums and an immensely affective choral drone, deployed with enough subtlety and atmosphere to really send shivers down the spine. 'This Foundry' follows, uncannily recalling the parallel dimensions of Balam Acab in its dragging Quasimodo flow and and vastly spacious sound design. 'We Must Hunt Under The Wreckage Of Many Systems' puts the final, frozen finish to the EP with a still, centred rhythm seemingly hung from flesh hooks in the ceiling while bowel shuddering subs disturb the flagstones below, shadowy reverbs skittering off cold, concrete surfaces. We've heard about a very special remix package forthcoming, but for now you'll have to flay yourself to this every evening. Outstanding.

Northworks - Northworks
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Millions Of Moments introduce a new character to their roster with this heavy debut from Northworks pressed on a limited run of hand-stamped, clear vinyl. The sublime couplet of 'In'/'Out' establishes a deep blend of plummeting dubstep bass weight and shimmering ambient techno in the former, and a warm-but-glassy beatless cut for the latter, compatible with Roof Light's techno hybrids yet with its own mellow personality. 'Through' takes the longer side, unfurling an elegant techno sequence with roots in Detroit and Berlin. Highly Recommended.

Julio Bashmore - Batak Groove / Around
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Julio is the latest bass head to release on Bristol's Soul Motive label, following in the footsteps of El-B, Joker, TRG, and Headhunter. As the title suggests, 'Batak Groove' prominently features the Batak drum, a frame drum indigenous to Malaysia and Indonesia with a hollow quality ripe for Julio's tribal style. It's among Julio's more reduced and restrained productions, placing it as a tidy DJ tool for long blends. On the flip 'Around' is a far more plush affair, striking a deep house groove with classically elegant strings balancing the low-cut bassline and efficiently clipped, laidback percussion.

Roof Light - Midas / Palm
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---One of 2010s breakout producers drops two boogie house heaters for MoM! If you've not caught his 'Kirkwood Gaps' album by now, you're sleeping on a good 'un, but no need to worry because you'll need this one also to get the full breadth of his style. On the A-side is a buttered slab of 100bpm boogie/soul reworking elements of Midnight Star's 'Midas Touch' with a touch of wind tunnel resistance and shoulder-dipping style. Over on 'Palm' he ups the pace to a Chicagoan 120bpm with slick strafing disco edits revolving around an elastic bass lick and utterly infectious drum shuffles. Get your dancing pumps on kids, this one's on a ltd, hand-stamped white label ting and will fly oot...

Whoops I forgot one
Ikonika & Optimum - Aqueous Cream / Ampersand
--- Quote ---Ikonika and Optimum's Hum & Buzz imprint makes its maiden voyage with a fresh pair of 130bpm rollers from the label CEOs. Ikonika occupies the A-side with 'Aqueous Cream', adding ornate and overweight electro-gangster synth stabs and dramatic piano keys to her augmented Funky patterns to sound brilliantly unlike anybody else out there. Linking with longstanding pal and collaborator Optimum on the flip for 'Ampersand', the duo calculate an icy rollers riddim with super-saccharine synthline and flickers of organic warmth in the bassline and conga rolls providing the only salvation from their brazenly forward aesthetic. A very promising start... we're already looking forward to the next one!

I've included a 33 RPM fuckup rip of the A-Side, which I periodically produce on accident.
