Following recent excursions channeling the big room sound, Project Pablo returns with a sleeker, more refined EP for Technicolour. The resulting five tracks span upbeat opener "Napoletana"; through the swirling improvised piano loops of "Last Day"; to the bumpy two-step of "Less And Less". The Canadian producer has had a stream of quality releases via labels such as Clone's Royal Oak imprint, Spring Theory, Lone's Magicwire, and most recently Ninja Tune's Technicolour imprint.

In 2016, Hieroglyphic Being (producer of astral electronic explorations); percussionist and producer Sarathy Korwar (who fused traditional folk music of the Sidi community in India with jazz and electronics on his 2016 debut album Day To Day); and Shabaka Hutchings (the highly respected British saxophonist and co-founder of Sons Of Kemet, Mercury-nominated The Comet Is Coming, and Shabaka And The Ancestors) recorded a 100% live improvised session at the iconic Lightship95 studio moored at Trinity Buoy Wharf, London. They recorded over two-and-a-half hours of music across two sessions, with 90 minutes streamed live via NTS.

TCLR 020EP

Drawing on the energy and spirituality of Sun Ra, Jamal Moss, aka Hieroglyphic Being, conducts his machines to create a raw, pulsating and meditative work that focused as much on the dancefloor as on the synapses. He returns to Technicolour to pay homage Chicago's nascent and fertile electronic music scene in the '90s. Fiercely visceral and channeling the same "rhythmic cubist" approach, "This Is 4 The Rave Bangers" and "HOME 95" are offered as "reinterpretations or a revisionist's retrospective of the early '90s electronic music based in Chicago during the rise of rave culture from a sonic anthropological narrative".

Technicolour presents the Dollar EP by Newcastle based hardware addict NY*AK. He channels the spirit of legendary rhythm architects Herbie Hancock, Theo Parrish, Kenny Dope and Lil' Louie Vega, collating four rough gems made using an MPC, Nord Lead 2, Roland SH101, Roland 606, Juno 106, Jen SX1000, Rhodes 88MK1 and with the help of Mark Hand on keys, Misumami on vocals and Ian Blevins. Each track packs incredible punch in the groove stakes, undoubtedly the characteristic that has attracted the likes of Moodymann, Seven Davis Jr and Gilles Peterson to NY*AK's music.

"South London production collective Brtsh Knights throw down the gauntlet with their first official release, the double A-side single of 'If I Was To' and 'Hazed.' This debut offering fuses classic house and garage with high-grade production. 'If I Was To' deploys bouncing synths and the incredibly addictive reciprocate vocal hook whilst flipside 'Hazed' is a dark, smokey slice of R&B with reverberating snares and super sweet vocals."

"BB Bleu was originally demoed by Kid A herself, but was picked up and properly produced by Pierre Serafini, AKA Opti. The France based producer and boss of bass music label Airflex Labs loved the original demo (included on the single) and worked on it along with Kid A's initially internet-procured mentor and musical soulmate, the French techno producer Agoria. Its sparse, icy drums and warmer, textural melodies provide the perfect backdrop for Kid A's yearning, personal musings on desire. It's like a rainy-day French blues played through modular synths and transposed into US soul."
