New Hot Flush Releases

Scuba's impeccable Hot Flush label has just released it's latest round of tunes, if you haven't already, go forth and purchase post haste...

Lando Kal - Further b/w Time Out

Hotflush presents the solo debut of Lando Kal, otherwise known as one half of the booty-shaking production-DJ duo Lazer Sword. A recent import to Berlin from San Francisco via New York City, Lando embodies a unique style all his own, which clearly shines through on this record. Soulful, emotive and slightly outside the box, “Further” and “Time Out” move through of elements of UK garage, West Coast bass and Funky, retaining a crucial dancefloor sensibility throughout.

Roska - Error Code b/w Abrupt



Hotflush presents the full label debut of UK funky figurehead Roska, following his appearance on the recent BACK AND 4TH compilation and seminal remix of Untold’s “Just For You” in 2009. This release brings together two cuts that emphasize a healthy evolution of the Roska style that has made such an impact on bass music in the last couple of years. Retaining the customary hard-hitting percussion and raw syncopated rhythms, a slightly futuristic twinge moves us into more unfamiliar territory, with the energetic synth arpeggiation of “Error Code” backed by the spacier, dubbed-out “Abrupt”.

Kuedo - Videowave EP

Its been a long time coming but most definitely worth the wait - Kuedo's latest and greatest is nearing release on Planet Mu. Take a read of press release below and head on over to the Planet Mu site and have a listen to the soundclips....

* Artists: Kuedo
* Title: Videowave E.P.
* Released: Jul 04, 2011

a-1. Take Off Remix
a-2. Starfox (Illum Sphere's Re-fox)
b-1. Glow (Clark Remix)
b-2. Shutter Light Girl ( Heterotic Remix )
b-3. Oh

The 'Videowave EP' is an 'end of phase one' sign-off for Kuedo, a.k.a. Jamie Teasdale.

After two well received and brilliant EPs, this is almost an addendum before a change in style with his forthcoming album.

Here, we collect together the best of his remaining original tracks from the first phase together with remixes by friends of three tracks from his last EP 'Dream Sequence'.

‘Take Off Remix’ was originally conceived in 2009 as a remix of Slugabed, but it doesn’t have much of the original left in it, so Slugabed has kindly let him use it for his own track. It’s a cosmic attack of spiralling, flickering arpeggios and aerial synth lines over crashing half-step drums.

Illum Sphere remakes ‘Starfox’ by laying it out with warm orchestral strings and soft bleeps, making an incredibly inviting and gentle version.

Chris Clark from Warp takes ‘Glow’ and turns it into a weightless symphony with long spaces, held together with gas-like drones in complex arrangements.

‘Shutter Light Girl’ is remixed by Heterotic and bathed in the washed out, gently pulsing and bending synths of the kind you might find accompanying the suggestive cut-aways of an 80s soft porn VHS.

Lastly ‘Oh’ is a mini anthem that mixes boom bap drums and claps with a lush upbeat synth melody that walks the fine line between melodic and abstract, previewing the forthcoming material, but also signing-off on his original hip hop sound and finishing the EP in triumphant form.
