following its recent reactivation and releases from jc & kastil and d_func, ben sims symbolism imprint sets out its autumn stall with a blistering four tracker from alphadrum. rigourously roadtested by sims himself over the past six months, this is an essential release from young italian producer, alphadrum.

ben sims symbolism continues apace with a release from binny, a liverpool-based producer dj otherwise known for some superb output as part of phantom planet outlaws. comprising three original tracks, the subtractive rhythm ep also takes in a remix from long-time sims collaborator and british techno legend, paul mac.

the revival of symbolism continues with j.c. & kastil. j.c. aka jose cabera is otherwise known as spanish house producer kasper as well as cropping up on fred p s boards imprint as j.c. in 2014 while kastil is widely recognised for his output and stewardship of soul notes

ben sims reignites his dormant symbolism imprint for 2015. last active in 2006, symbolism is about music with real mood and will continue to impart sims vision of techno through releases from newcomers and established acts alike. the first release comes from d_func and includes an edit from sims himself.

we here at french press lounge are very pleased to share our latest release by florida-born, california based producer and professor neoprene with a debut 12” titled “possibility spaces”.
propelled by pure state aesthetics, spatial theoretics and a fondness of ferns, neoprene (amongst several other musical monikers and permutations) has been crafting and perfecting outer-world electronics since 2011 through their highly slept-upon digital and cassette label ashtar communications. “possibility spaces” is their debut 12”, a collection of cherry picked tracks created in chicago during their barista residency of 2015 - heavy points of dark matter gliding across a delicate, semi-permeable surface of unidentified experience. where others simply trawl the tropes of a rave culture gone by, neoprene bends into the best assets of house, hardcore and breaks and pulls up through a dense fog of floral new age ambience, creating a one-of-a-kind approach to expository techno.

hdr002 takes us straight to 90s house territory with four new edits from nycs marcos cabral. the a-side opens with >sym phon<, an anthemic filtered piano house jam that opens up wide and swallows all in its path. a2 gives us >better think again< with sticatto chords and twinkling keys in a jersey-esque house sound. the b-side hits with >in the sea<, starting off with a giant slow tribal beat and then morphs into a psychedelically swirling synth workout. b2 wraps things up with >get get get< turning our ears to old school chicago house. rolands tr-707 lays the percussion down while the chant of >get in the groove< repeats into infinity
