TURBO 247EP
|
When the people just gotta dance right now, Turbo Recordings will drop everything to fast-track the hottest, rawest music the moment the download links hit. Such is the case with rising Lithuanian superstar DJ JM's moov EP, which contains five tracks so good they needed to hit today's streets today. To ensure the mind-churning efficiency and logistical brilliance needed to pull off this kind of turnaround, label life-giver Tiga slept and tried to bathe at the office for five straight days before being hospitalized for "caring too much." The result is a thrilling showcase for DJ JM, perhaps the label's favorite current artist working in any medium. His grit-rich beats, his melodist's ear, his sound design -- sometimes it's all too much to bear. But bear it and grin you shall, and as you have the night of your life every night from now into the future untold, take a moment to spare a grin in the knowledge that somewhere there is a man hooked up to a Gatorade IV who wanted all of this for you and could not bear for you to wait a moment longer.

NH 009EP
|
Lithuanian producer Mantas Povilaika, aka DJ JM, has announced new five-tracker, No Days Off EP -- his inaugural record for blossoming club label, Nervous Horizon. After first starting to emerge on the London club scene radar back in 2015, Nervous Horizon label heads TSVI and Wallwork played some early JM material at their debut London Boiler Room session in 2016, sparking a relationship that has since birthed collaborations on TSVI EPs Sacred Drums (NH 005EP, 2016) and Rambo (NH 007EP, 2018). After releasing a further two full EPs on NKC's hard drum label Even The Strong, No Days Off EP forms a natural extension of his work with TSVI, only this time more extensive and detailed. From the anthemic, late '90s euphoria of the title-track to the searing club energy of "Mad Move" featuring TSVI to the dark, pulsing techno flicker of "Bar Bell", it is an EP forged at peak time and only tempered by mystical EP closer, "Original Taste" -- a track inspired by local Lithuanian club sounds and faraway worlds.
