Review: Next up from the Black Marble Collective, we see them explore a footwork-driven exploration with this fabulous collaboration EP from PUFF Magic & Hypesteria. We begin with the sweeping bass textures and eerie pads that sit atop the arrangement of 'Let It Roll', and ethereal creation indeed, followed by 'M.T.A.G.', a much more experimental design, focussing more so on specific vocal slices and cuts. From here, the more mysterious synth melodies and arpeggiating soundscapes of 'C.B,D', before finishing off with the much softer soundscapes of 'So Shady', which displays melodic delicacy and a beautiful display of harmonic structure.
Review: It appears that the Black Marble Collective are keen to kick off 2020 in the same way they left 2019, as they unleash this stunning body of work from Raumskaya, a Moscow-based producer who has been turning quite a few heads. Between the crunchy drum expanses and bubbling melodic layout of 'Addicted To Love' we kick off with a flying start, followed by faux-d&B drum rhythms of 'Doggone Girl' and EDM-inspired big room synth pads of 'Easy Easy'. Finally, we finish off with more sumptuous sounds as 'Clouds' supplies us with a gorgeous combination of soft pads and vocal delays. It's as smooth as you like!
Review: The team at Black Marble Collective have maintained an incredibly consistent high standard throughout the course of 2019, with this latest compilation providing the cherry for the metaphorical cake they really do deserve. They assemble a goliath 16 track collection including original heat from the likes of DJ Ends, Jah Bliddie, Andrew DIFF, Dev79 and more. For us there are a couple of stand out favourites, including 6Blocc's incredibly emotive rethink 'For Life', originally featuring A.Fruit. We also love the rave-ready basslines of Dom Corleone's 'Yo Body' VIP mix and the junglist slices of 'Underground' from Alexandre.
Review: Black Marble collective are back at it again, here ready to continue their impressive run of releases with the latest drop from Frenquency, unveiling eight brand new corkers, showcasing a large range of styles within the footwork expanse. Throughout the release we see a number of wicked features, including Bankster on 'U Want', BSN Posse on the junglistic 'My World', Atactic on the spooky overtones of 'Soundbwoi Dead' and Taro on the colourful chord movements of 'Gamelan People'. For us, the two stand out recordings on this one have to be the crunchy yet super atmospheric 'Fluencia', followed by the super percussive swings of 'Tokyodesu'.
