Local Action
Played by: Juno Recommends Bass
Review: Earning a reputation through the singles and EPs he's released with Of Paradise White Label and Lost Palms, through to the albums he's put out on 96 And Forever Records, Baltra has arrived at large on Local Action with a mini-album if you take into account its two extended bonus tracks". With Baltra's vocals cast upfront in his trademark style, reverberated or vocoded, Balktra moves from the murky pop opener "Make It B.I.G", to the spoken words of "Will You Be?" and the blissfully distorted bassline trip, "Like A Butterfly". Converging on all manner of future music styles that trip across ambient house and R&B - "Work (It) Out" presents its most dancefloor orientated number - good enough for a Dubsided release back in the day - to the neo-future pop of "Baby". Baltra's got Ambition.

Review: Yamaneko's debut album - 2014's Pixel Wave Embrace became a cult classic - quietly but notably influential on the artists around him and further afield. For his third full length effort on hometown imprint Local Action, the London based producer Joe Moynihan (who has released under the names Talbot Fade and Yaroze Dream Suite with Miles Mitchell) has been combining electronic music with ambient by way of grime, new age cassette music, video game soundtracks and techno. This album follows up last year's colder, less inviting Project Nautilus (Keygen Loops) but is a complete change of perspective. Story has it that earlier in 2017, he was commissioned to create music for a spa in Europe. These commissions eventually developed into a mass of material which formed the basis of this entire album. Here he has created his most blissful, beatless record to date.

Review: Deadboy will release his debut album Earth Body. Eight years into a varied career, the UK born, Montreal-based producer has made everything from R&B-sampling club tracks to ambient music since his debut in 2009. According to Local Action his first LP is a pop record inspired by Scott Walker, Sade, Drake and the Beach Boys, "filled with bold choruses and multi-tracked harmonies." The album was written and recorded during a Montreal winter, using his own vocals for a change, rather than using sampled ones on this brazenly pop inflected outing that is a noticeable departure from his previous work.

Review: Yamaneko's fierce and cavernous bass experimentations for Local Action are given a new, much broader meaning thanks to this new album, the magnificent voyage called Project Nautilus. There's little that the producer doesn't touch upon with this new piece of work, from the quirky bleeps and funky tribalism of "Gala Helipop", to the distorted bass shots of "Accela Crash", and the hollow, spectral grime of "Pink 3", among many others on here, Yamaneko truly stands out from the rest of his contemporary bass peers. Tip!

Review: This debut album from London-based producer Yamaneko represents something of an adventurous move for Local Action, as he offers up some alternative stances upon which grime influences can be posited. The likes of "Slew Wave" may swagger with the appropriate level of attitude, but even in these moments a mystical energy floats behind the rude percussion. Elsewhere the beats are eschewed altogether in favour of floatation tank ambience, or at the very least pushed to the back of the pecking order to let the wistful synth styles drift to the fore. It's a diverse album held together by its plush digital sound palette, with enough facets to appeal to a whole host of different sonic explorers.

Review: It's still early days for Inkke but this release for Local Action should find the emergent grime-influenced producer reaching a wider audience with his distinctive synth rich take on bass music. With six originals to choose from, this EP is a perfect primer for those wanting to get a feel for the artist, ranging from the uptempo thrust of "Thinkk Star (Club Mix)" with its 4/4 stylings through to the exotic slow-motion funk of "Paradise" featuring the soulful croon of Julia Jaban. There is diversity at every turn that points to a multitude of fates awaiting Inkke as his star rises in the multifaceted work of electronic music.
