EXUM
Xardinal Coffee
Debut album from ex-NFL pro (San Francisco 49ers & Minnesota Vikings). A blend of 80's dream funk, surreal alt-pop and hyper-charged hip-hop that sits somewhere in between Toro Y Moi, Twin Shadow, JPEGMAFIA and Baby Keem.
Xardinal Coffee is a debut album that is a strikingly contemporary record of slick hip hop, rich textures, idiosyncratic grooves and electronic-tinged wonky R&B. It's an album that feels intricate and busy but also manages to retain a sense of space and looseness, allowing hypnotic rhythms to unfurl with grace. EXUM, aka Antone Chavez Exum Jr. credits the 'genius' of his two producers, Erik Samkopf and Dex Barstad, who he works closely with.
Samkopf being the producer responsible for Xardinal Coffee respectively. 'Sam and I don't really like doing anything that doesn't have an ückean effect. We're not from here you know, we're just getting adjusted', says EXUM of the album's eclectic sonic palate. 'We love to push the envelope on what is considered quirky, but try not to think about it too much. If me and another are walking down a street, who's going to be first to try something spectacular? Them. My walk will speak.'

Terry Farley Presents Giocoso BBQ Club / Terry Farley
EP One
Getting things cooking up nicely, the first release from Terry Farley’s lockdown collaboration project, alongside Gary Ellis from South Beach Recycling, Giocoso BBQ Club, turn the gas to full for this three-track feast of prime house cuts. Served up first, what originally started as an edit of a disco standard for personal use, has been updated and reworked over lockdown into a straight up, minor chord, primetime, 909 Bassline led, NYC real house track that could easily be circa late ‘90s early 2000’s. Second on the grill, track two has been built to hug you musically rather than punch in the face like it's big brother, and is far more suited to the early hours for the long stayers, or for that matter on the sofa. Traditionally Rhodes-led deep house. Last but not least, (Runway use only) deep, choppy, Detroit/Chicago/NYC Deep house built in homage to the ballroom. Grub’s up with Giocoso BBQ Club. Seriously smokin’ stuff.

COLA BOYY
Prosthetic Boombox
There’s liberation on the dance floor in the songs of Matthew Urango – glimpses of revolution that glimmer beneath the disco ball. “I want my music to bring people together,” says the Californian pop innovator, best known as Cola Boyy. “Because standing together is our best chance at fighting this shit show.” The shit show in question is a broken, brutal system the acclaimed multi-instrumentalist has witnessed up-close. Urango was born with spina bifida and scoliosis in Oxnard, California: a town in which almost 30,000 are estimated to live in poverty. Prosthetic Boombox, his eagerly awaited debut album, might at first glance seem a joyous confetti-burst of pop eclecticism, engineered to sound like “scanning between stations on a car radio, landing on all these different sounds and styles” as Urango puts it. Dig deeper, though, and you’ll discover a simmering sense of rebellion. “The working class are injured, struggling to pay rent and struggling to put food on the table,” he says. “I want to represent that.” Prosthetic Boombox achieves that goal in a thrilling flurry of inventive indie, funk and soul: take Urango’s car radio analogy, place it in a time-travelling Delorean with Prince in the passenger seat, and you’re half-way there.

The Black Queen
Fever Daydream
Re-press of the acclaimed 2016 album from the experimental synth-wave group The Black Queen. Fronted by ex- The Dillinger Escape plan frontman Greg Puciato. Check this out if you're into the likes of (Crosses), Blaqk Audio and Cold Cave.
“In 20 years of making albums, there are a few that stand-out as being really special. They felt special when they were being made, and they still stand-out after the passing of time. If every album is a point on a timeline, these points are a little bigger than the rest. ‘Fever Daydream‘ is one of those points. We had no idea when we made it whether other people would connect to it in the way that we did, but it turns out that a decent amount of people did.
This was the gateway into a lot for me on the release-side too, the genesis of what would become Federal Prisoner, and the start of a real passion for releasing records, and for owning my output. Personally it was a really transitional time too, with a lot of growth happening, and I can hear all of that in this. We had a special bond as friends and musicians during the years that we spent making this, and a couple of my current closest relationships both personally and professionally were formed during this time.
So we, and I, are proud to re-issue this, in new packaging, with new variants, and some extra stuff on the digital side. Thanks everyone. We hope to see you at some shows before too long. Now back to the new record ;-).”
