CNTXTS 1001EP
|
The hybrid label of Contexterrior and Tuning Spork is launched with this release, which comes from London-based Alex Celler, who has been collaborating with Jay Haze & his labels since 2009. "Kammsa" expands over 11 minutes and is based on a bubbling, funked-up bass which mutates slowly and maintains a steady yet driving pace, accompanied with percussion and melodies, slowly escalating into a dynamic groover which quickly takes off. "Plex Astunde" comes strong and mysterious, with shuffling rhythms and syncopated drums, rolling along sub-bass tones, forming a chuggy, sleek rhythm which leads to a melodic turn, only to descend again into glitch territory.

AREA 018EP
|
Area Remote's 18th release features producer/DJ Alex Celler, who's causing a stir with his energetic and intense house sounds, full of swing, tribal rhythms and tech-y beats. Here are two loud and punchy slammers for the dancefloor, hot-off-the-press: you're going to love "Mok Da Mush," with its funky groove and quirky sound snips layered across a sci-fi soundscape. The tribal, banging "Nymphoz" boasts deep vocals and a thumping groove that will get the clubbers panting, for sure.

TS 043EP
|
On Trapped In Dub, Alex Celler combines his usual tribal rhythms and techy beats, but not without some unusual elements added into the mix. The title track has a bit of Tuning Spork humor, with children chanting and clapping, punctuated by soul-brotha guitar hits. "Indalgo" is more restrained, with snappy beats countered by gentle chimes, and a pastiche of samples. "Luciola" features tumbling, punchy drums and a soaring synth melody that rounds out the EP with a buoyant tone.
