We're full on this planet; there are two options. Either we kill each other, or we help each other.

An eco-friendly song? Maybe.

A social song? Maybe. A topical piece?

Definitely.

There once was a lady named Charlotte Leclerc, Who sailed on an iceberg from here to afar. "Comme un iceberg," she'd rhythmically chant, While wearing her Moiré dress for a nautical jaunt.

"Delodio!" she'd cry to the curious fish, While balancing teacups on top of her dish. Her iceberg spun 'round like a crystalline top, With nary a reason or purpose to stop.

The porpoises laughed and the sea turtles cheered, As Charlotte's strange vessel completely disappeared. Then popped up again near the Isle of Kazoo, Where nonsensical creatures said, "How do you do?"

Charlotte Leclerc just curtsied and smiled, Her journey, though frosty, was wonderfully wild. "Delodio Moiré!" became her strange call, The most elegant iceberg captain of all!

'Moiré' is the second album by French musician and singer Charlotte Leclerc. Deeply influenced by Reunion Island, where the artist grew up. Steeped in the humid heaviness of the Indian Ocean and caressed by the freshness of the primary forests, Charlotte's songs are nourished by the small details of everyday life that we rediscover when we slow down the pace of our busy days. She uses the sound of her synthesisers and drum machines to create a blend of ambient, electronic music, and pop, and speaks to us about human relationships. Two-person relationships and universal relationships, those that connect us all and allow this planet to function a little better. Remember, "Moire" means "changing."

Music To Watch Seeds Grow By welcomes Stella Z to the family, with her ode to the Fig.

Make A Dance is a duo made up of Ben Lewis & Josh Ludlow and best believe us when we say that they have been causing quite the ruckus. Their record label come party series has become a UK powerhouse releasing some of the best club music out there with a playful sense of self and dancefloor debauchery to boot.

As a duo they mix a broad assortment of house, disco, funk and beyond – blurring the lines between genres but always managing to maintain the soul and energy of a good party. Nothing too serious, nothing too dark.

At a time when the world ain’t so happy – they channel the feel good elements of a genre which can often take itself far too seriously and we can safely say that we’re here for it.

This mix demonstrates why they are two of the most fun in the booth at the moment as they whiz through a heady assortment of House, Disco, Italo, Balearic and beyond.

After a hiatus, uju Records returns with forward motion and the great Shubostar’s “Galaxy Walker” EP.

The plane careered through the clouds, emerging through the fog into the deep radiant blue above. This was another world, the stresses of planet earth were left far behind as they sat aboard their flying vessel surrounded by the whizz and whirring of machinery.

Down below the waters raged and the planet fought amongst itself. Yet up here, in their little cabin they were munching upon snacks and cold beverages from a trolley on wheels.

Who cared for what was down below?

Not when they were this high.

The Magus Project remind us why the 90's was a better time as a new EP is unearthed showcasing the sound which accompanied the tail end of the century. Fast paced, driven by electronics with a raw underground edge.

As dance music should be.

Swedish producer Daniel Savio returns on Finland’s Elektorni label. We’re showcasing the electro funk side to the EP.

There once was a fellow named Daniel Savio, Who rode on a unicorn spotted and gravio.

He called to the Mighty Thor, “I’ve never seen one before!” While dancing the Elektorni fandavio.

George T and Mairi ‘B’ Pots return with a new single on Paradise Palms

Acidic, percussive, hypnotic vocal belter from George T and Mairi ‘B’ Pots as Accident Machine on the ever-reliable Paradise Palms.

There once was a contraption so keen, Called the “Accident Machine” – quite obscene!

With a premiere most bright, It caused such delight,

In a real dream scene rarely seen!

The paradise palms stood nearby, As the machine let out quite a sigh.

“I manufacture mishaps! And wonderful scraps!

Of nonsensical things from the sky!”

It whirred and it clanked with a boom, Filling all of the scene with perfume.

Not the fragrant kind, no! But a strange psychic glow,

That transported you straight from your room!

Oh, real dreams it made by the score, Each one stranger than those made before.

In paradise lands, Built by mechanical hands,

What accidents could you ask for more?

Ransom Note Records are over the moon to welcome illustrious French Electronic duo Froid Dub to the fold for the debut 12” vinyl release with us, Tears Maker Chant. Head honchos of the wonderful Delodio label, Stéphane and François, mark the 50th release for R$N Recs, and this is without a shadow of a doubt an incredibly special one for us. So, sit back and ready yourself for some inimitable Froid Dub cuts; laid back but pounding, graceful yet aggressive but above all, thoroughly danceable.

First single On The Nose enters next, with a delightfully soft, round bass that feels like bouncing around a padded room. Inside a Zorb. On MDMA. More echoed, analogue motifs dart from left to right, confirming with strong conviction that our chaps from Paris put the Dub in Indubitably Fantastic.

Amine Laje is a multi faceted producer. In fact you might better know him as Romain Poncet or Traumer...

Under this new moniker he is keen to explore some of his foremost influences, drawing upon inspiration from the heady days of Trip-Hop and channeling his production credentials into a new sound.

For his first-ever published mix as Amine Laje, Romain Poncet crafts a deeply immersive journey through jazz-infused beats, melancholic textures, and raw, intuitive soundscapes.

The mix showcases a lot of unreleased songs that were created for the restaurant Datsha in Paris, alongside some tracks from the eponymous album.

Best enjoyed in a cozy setting, with warm lighting—let yourself get lost in the sound.

This one goes deep.

The river was flowing rapidly. The rain from the night before had meant that there was little room for error as they floated on down through the rushing water. The noise was bellowing all around and the rough smacking of waves against the boat was almost frightening at times.

They could see the dense greenery of the jungle all around them on either side as they careered down the rapids, narrowly avoiding the rocks and the dense fog of white as the water surged beneath them.

The sun beamed down from above upon the expedition.

It was hard to tell where they were anymore...

Cafe de la Jungle has become well known for his eclectic take on percussive electronic music which sees him experiment with rhythm and structure in innovative ways. His music is intelligent and hypnotic often leaving you quizzical of its whereabouts or direction - we say this in the best way.

This new record on QEONE is special. A true heads down, lock in affair.
