Pentland Park return to Lava Lava this March with their sophomore EP for the Glasgow label. ‘Turismo’ follows on from a highly-acclaimed 2023 Italo/Nu-Disco label debut and an amazing contribution to last year’s WAVES compilation.

With their latest 4-track EP, the Glaswegian duo showcase their impressive and diverse range of production prowess, creating a record which is catered towards intimate and unforgettable dance floor moments.

Opening the EP, ’Nostalgic’ is a dynamic dance floor-focussed track where raw percussion, retro hand claps and squelching bass hits skip alongside swirling pads and hazy melodies. The title track perfectly encapsulates the playfulness of the duo. Bright pads, soft trumpet samples and light acid tinged synth lines weave alongside a bouncing bass line and choppy vocal hooks.

‘Love Your Neighbour’ is a nod to Afro-House where shuffling percussion and twinkling synths bounce alongside deep low-end stabs and horn samples. Chopped vocals subtly unfold to give a real evocative energy. Finally, ’Rooftop’ is constantly evolving throughout with resonant bass, a crisp rhythm section and cinematic atmospherics intertwining with sharp synth licks.

Created in partnership with Sheffield songwriter wolf peaches, Cornwall’s Kerrier Collective return to Colour and Pitch with two brand new tracks: ‘Rotten Fingers’ and ‘Fake Silence’.

Lush instrumental ‘Life Wants To Live’, Kerrier Collective’s first single on the Colour and Pitch garnered play on BBC 6 Music, NTS and Jazz FM here in the UK, so we’re delighted to have them back on the label, this time with added vocals.

Slo-mo Deep House cut ‘Rotten Fingers’ was originally released by wolf peaches and producer Robin Grey as a downtempo song (it’s well worth seeking out). As Ben Tidy puts it: “A real Sunday morning jam with great production from Robin.” After a chance meeting with Robin, Kerrier Collective got to work on the song bringing in regular collaborator Polly Meyrick on horns. “We wanted to make the Saturday night version of this Sunday morning Jam, so sped it up to a slow house tempo and got groovin’ with the drums. We were listening to a lot of Omar S’s slow crunky techno with 909 basslines and Nils Frahm’s subtle drops, and it seems we have paid homage to both of them in this track. This last section is really where Kerrier Collective and wolf peaches merge into one with Alfie’s strings, Polly’s horns and Ben’s synths sitting atop the vocals and chords. This was a real joy to work on. I hope you can feel how much we got into the track.”

Second track ‘Fake Silence’ takes a more delicate and minimal path, with lo-fi drums, heavy sub bass and ice-cold piano chords giving way to dizzying vocals and entrancing plucked violin and concertina flourishes. “When we received the vocals back from wolf peaches for what would become ‘Fake Silence,’ there were three long takes of ideas” says Ben. “So many good ideas, and lots of them. We treated the takes like you would sample material, taking a bit from here and a bit from there, editing together a new chorus and some ideas for a verse. Little did I know that I was whittling together a chorus subconsciously which was describing exactly what was going on in one of my relationships at the time.” “The yearning for authentic expression and mindful presence in wolf peaches’ vocals are themes which resonate strongly with all three of us” says Alfie. “So here we are, exploring the shortfall between language and emotions, as we probably all will, if we stop and listen.”

About Kerrier Collective:

Drawing Jazz, Afrobeat and Deep House sensibilities into their warm, subtle and carefully considered compositions, Kerrier Collective (Ben Tidy and Alfie Gidley) have been releasing music since early 2021. The duo adroitly blend Ben's experience as part of London house production team Souled and staffer at UK dance music institution Black Market Records, with Alfie's formidable talent as a multi-instrumentalist, built through more than 15 years performing as a live artist.

What a thrill to welcome back Anastasia Zems on Ulla Records with « Human Nature », a 4 originals and 4 remixes EP !

The Lisboa-based artist, whose creative spirit likes to combine electronic beats with vocals, draws inspiration in her deep connection with music, and her passion for singing, dancing and theater. Throughout her many releases on various labels, and her DJ sets, she has shaped a sound of her own, balancing techno and trance rhythms, combined with progressive and obscure electronica.

In « Human Nature », she delivers 4 tech and progg infused tracks, fueled with deep basslines, acidulated synths and infectious grooves. Going on remix duty, we’re pleased to have Jimmy Batt and Cogan for the first time on the label, alongside familiar faces, our dear SpunOff and label honcho Naranja to wrap it up !

PREMIERE : Walentin Pauer - Sexted (Timo Maas & Francesco Mami & King Brain Remix) by Les Yeux Orange

Nordfold’s latest EP gets a remix treatment by two extremely unique talents; Storken and Alican.

Alican, known for his releases on Innervisions, twists Nordfold’s original into a club banger which is already being played heavily by Dixon, Ame, Trikk and other artists. His remix has hints of the original’s vocals and synths. But Alican packed it into his unique club blend.

Storken, known for his releases on Running Back, puts his hands on Machine. Storken is an extremely talented Scandinavian producer who has crystallized his own style over the last few years. Disco, good vibes and gimmicks permeate all his songs. For example, he twists the elegant “Machine” into a more disco-ish version in his signature sound.

Wax on - wax off.

Berlin-based French artist Vonverhille and Parisian composer REMO, the duo behind DEF MUSIC, unveil their debut EP Life Drawing on LAN—a bold exploration of EBM and proto-trance.

Fusing REMO’s deep-rooted psytrance and bass influences with Vonverhille’s signature experimental and electro sound, the release channels their distinct musical journeys into a raw, club-driven experience.

Hybrid creation, Life Drawing offers a vivid portrait of their shared sonic universe, and marks the culmination of their years-long collaboration, first sparked by a track on a compilation, now fully realised in this electrifying joint release.

“Traces”, the debut album from https://soundcloud.com/vestocomodo, presents a sonic meditation on the enduring power of human emotions and behaviours in an era where the boundaries between organic and artificial consciousness have dissolved.

Introspective, funky, earthy and deep: the album sound palette juxtaposes elements like century-old piano phrases with mysterious synth pads, while tape-squashed drum breaks and jazzy flute themes spiral together creating a journey into a prehistoric futurism.

This is my first Album and private press project.

VESTO001 is here! I am thrilled and thankful to have birthed this—huge thanks to everyone involved and a special thanks to my brother Filippo for his guidance.

Much Love,

Alberto
