Audio Love 12.12.14

Various Artists – TRP001 (трип – pronounced Trip)

Nina Kraviz launces her new label with this double 12” showcasing some heavyweight talent. We’ve got tracks here from Nina herself, Steve Stoll, Bjarki, Population One (A.K.A. Terrence Dixon), Exos and Parish Smith and they’re all deep but edgy, dancefloor goodness. You have to check “Out of Control (Vocal Mix)” by Population One and “Pop Song” by Steve Stoll. Fucking heavy.

Gala Drop – II LP (Golf Channel)

The ever reliable friend that is Golf Channel has just dropped this excellent long player from Portuguese collective Gala Drop. They draw their influences from far and wide, drawing on a sphere spanning punk, funk and electronics. The sound they end up with though feels cohesive and individual however. This is a lovely collection of tracks that I’m looking forward to getting to know on my lunchtime walks. Big up.
