One of the best releases of 2012 so far has landed from one of Inhabit’s favourite imprints and producers.

Rumah Interview + Inhabit Mix 017
11.05.12
Sean Hughes aka Rumah first crossed my radar a couple of months ago after hearing his guest mix on Dalston internet radio station NTS. Since then I have witnessed him sporadically uploaded new tracks to his Soundcloud, each bettering the last. His productions are usually built around a four-to-the-floor referencing techno and house, coloured with with dark textures from across the UK spectrum. [Read more →]

Review: Lando Kal – Rhythm Sektion / Inquisition
12.04.12
After ‘Further/Time Out’ (HFT015) started appearing in the need-to-know radio shows of last year, it seemed like new boy Lando Kal was somewhat of a young prodigy. And although the name still feels fresh on the eve of his second Hotflush release, it couldn’t be further from the truth. Despite Lando Kal being the solo producer in question over this side of the water, hop across the pond and you’ll find the compelling backstory of his partnership with Low Limit as the West Coast glitch-hop duo Lazer Sword. Their FACT mix of last year was weighted just as evenly between Soulja Boy and Crookers, as it was with Terror Danjah and Fantastic Mr Fox, which may have hinted towards where their influences were coming from.

The collaboration by Mad Mats, a former break-dancing champion and founder of Sweden’s seminal home of electronic music Raw Fusion, and Tooli, whose highly acclaimed 24:hrs blog and parties made him a regular name on the Stockhlm nightlife circuit, was spawned out of their deep-rooted love for all things ‘house’. With releases from Andreas Saag, Fulbert and Deymare, we caught up with Mats and Tooli to ask them what all the fuss is about. [Read more →]
