First post! A lot of nice stuff in this thread, thanks for sharing.
A recent track Iâd like to share, would probably fall under the âmelodicâ techno genre, so tempo on the slower side:

Rymdeko is the collaboration between The Space Wanderer and TTilawok, the duo behind Brooklyn label Postseason Franchise Records. In late 2017, with Nicholas Comaratta (The Space Wanderer) visiting TJ Perrin (TTilawok) in Stockholm, they began working on what would become Rymdeko during an artist residency at Swedenâs legendary Elektronmusikstudion (EMS). Over the course of one week, they churned out a handful of tracks that slide between minimal techno and downtempo electronica. The resulting sounds of Rymdeko (âSpace Echoâ in Swedish) are a nod to their shared influences as well as their own solo creations. Their residency focused on combining vintage analog synthesizers and modular gear such as the Buchla 200 and Serge modular with altered samples to form rhythmic energetic soundscapes. Their take on production creates a listening experience infused with modern processing techniques and classic modular frequencies and effects units. Both adept at creating sonic landscapes that fulfill their visions, they combine here for four tracks of refreshingly honest house and electro.
TTilawok and The Space Wanderer are multi-instrumentalist sound artists collaborating internationally between Sweden and New York. Their work combines analog and digital sounds with recorded samples to form rhythmic dynamics and energetic soundscapes.
Postseason Franchise Records regularly donates proceeds from events and releases to organizations such as The Yellowhammer Fund, WIRES (Wildlife Rescue in Australia), and Cuba Analogica. In an effort to reduce carbon emissions and support global climate stability, $1 from each Rymdeko record sold digitally and physically will be donated to the Coalition for Rainforest Nations.

New production from Dalston London & Kingston Jamaica here for your ears.
The first track from an album of heavy weight roots reggae interpretations of modern and classic soul covers - from the likes of Michael Kiwunka, Charles Bradley and Marvin Gaye - âCry For Unityâ is due for release later this summer.
Recorded at TRC last June, before being hand delivered in Kingston to five legendary reggae vocalists, including Big Youth, Cornell Campbell, Fred Locks, Linval Thompson and Tabby Diamond.
Kristian Craig Robinson (Capitol K) on the controls, with a cast of characters from Total Refreshment Centre and our next door neighbors, Mellow Mix, as the âTime Of Confusionâ band; their first song - âThis World (Is Going Up In Flames)â feat Tabby Diamond is out now.

Calum Gunn has spent the past few years becoming a key figure in the European electronic avant-garde. As well as releasing his own music through labels like Entrâacte, FLUF and Tsuku Boshi, the Berlin-based Gunn also helms Conditional Records, one of the most forward-thinking computer-music imprints to emerge in recent times.
Gunnâs Addenda EP, his debut drop for Central Processing Unit, contains some of his most dynamic work to date. While his commitment to experimentalism remains, these four tracks represent a clear shift in focus for Gunn - namely that, for perhaps the first time in his career, he is making music that is club-friendly. A whole host of dancefloor innovators are recalled when listening to Addenda - particularly Autechre, Analord-era AFX and several of Mark Pritchardâs projects as well as Gunnâs contemporaries Rian Treanor and Renick Bell.
These tracks never sit still, their rhythms constantly evolving and turning themselves over. Addendaâs first two cuts use metronomic hi-hats to keep these ever-changing grooves in check. With its thwacking kicks and snares, opener âEsephonyâ enters the fray with the heft of an early Wiley riddim. Atop these drums we find squeaky half-melodies interlocking and breaking apart, meaning that the overall effect is not dissimilar to the tweaking beats that Pritchard came up with as part of Africa Hitech. âEsephonyâ is followed by âMoebuâ, another track that harks to grime through its fluttering lead synth. The way that this single-note line snakes above a slow, steady drum pulse pitches âMoebuâ halfway between Last Japan and rRoxymore.
Gunn increases the tempo in Addendaâs second half. âTernenmarzâ introduces itself with more blarts of bass, but whereas these were steady on âEsephonyâ they now jump around unexpectedly. Gunn holds the erratic kicks in place with twittering hats and snares - indeed, when you factor in its gnarly synth lines, âTernenmarzâ steers closer than any other cut here to the high-grade electro drops that CPU has made its name with. Closer âPinsâ supercharges the snap of âEsephonyâ to 145 bpm before Gunn softens up the track with reverb-drenched synths that nod to the sombre post-grime of Mr. Mitchâs Gobstopper Records.
With the Addenda EP, Calum Gunn has achieved something that proves elusive to so many producers - making club tracks that are at once innovative and immediate, their experimental tendencies serving to elevate their dancefloor impact.

Have been driving myself batty w/ work and other issues, so Iâve been using music making as a way to clear my mind. Got some tracks together to a place I like and just put them up on bandcamp. House-ish.
