Review: Barely two months have passed since the release of Bawrut's excellent 4x4 EP, but already Ransom Note is serving up a remixed version. Philip Lauer naturally impresses with a typically loved-up, melodious and glassy-eyed dancefloor rework of "I Hear Voices" that's as Balearic as they come, while psychedelic disco sort Timothy Clerkin re-casts the same track as an acid-fired ambient trip rich in hallucinatory electronics. Elsewhere, Jimpster surprisingly doffs his cap to Gieorgio Moroder on a druggy, arpeggio-driven re-make of "More Cowbell", Sano lays down a low-slung, Afro-tinged jack-track take on "Ghettoscar" and Lossy's remix of "Three Sounds" joins the dots between bass-heavy bleep-era electro and shimmering Balearic house. Arguably best of all though, is the epic, rush-inducing positivity of Marlon Hoffstadt's "Aloe Vera Mix" of "More Cowbell".

Review: Hotlanta's Ryan Parks a.k.a. Fit Of Body up next on Ransom Note. Five woozy original tracks jammed out on second hand drum machines, bass guitar, cheap mics and creaking synths, this is techno as it was first imagined; raw machine soul made for strange times and unknown futures. Serving up a nice EP here with some deep and sexy house on "56K" while dreamy lo-fi business follows on the sublime analogue haze of "RTTRAP/DIE". There's even a lovely vocal number in the form of "ATT (Since)" which is a dead giveaway of his R&B past we must say.

Review: Following their commercial success as The Rapture - a band outta New York that repopularised the cowbell with Pieces Of The People We Love - Gabriel Andruzzi & Vito Roccoforte have gone on to form the Mother Of Mars project. Released via Ransom Note (Gabriel Andruzzi has enjoyed a solo career through the likes L.I.E.S Records and Throne Of Blood too) the pair deliver a second session in this I Hear EP that brings in a third, and new band member/vocalist: Jaiko Suzuki. Journeying into psych, kosmische, avant garde, fourth world and new age dreamscapes - while maintaining the live-drummed rhythmic engine of The Rapture - I Hear dips into percussion as much as it does post-punk, sub pop and electro-dance. Produced by Ewan Pearson, no less!

Review: London based online magazine The Ransom Note launched their record label back in early 2016 and are now onto their tenth release. They continue their search for the finest dance music around the globe and serve up a 'carnival-ready curveball' here with 'the sleazy, Ghanaian Afro-Ghetto-Techno-Pop that is Bryte's word-of-mouth classic' entitled "I Like Your Girlfriend". Originally surfacing on YouTube dance videos, the low quality video rip of Bryte's 'bizarre' lyrics over Gafacci's grime/afro house beat has been popular with tastemakers such as Bok Bok, Mixpak and Gang Fatale. Coming from Accra's Azonto dance scene, where tracks are produced in makeshift home studios then swapped through social media apps on smartphones,this track has long remained a holy grail. The label claim that this is quite possibly the first Azonto track to be released on vinyl!

Review: Bawrut returns to Ransom Note to present his debut album In The Middle, featuring nearly a dozen tracks of electronic pop, featuring vocalists Liberato, GlitterUYUY, Cosmo and Chico Blanco. Whether it's the blissed-out sunset breaks of "Son El La Cara", the flamenco-inflected rave of "Alfredo And Ricardo Brought Me Here", to the glassy-eyed and bitter sweet deep house of "Fe Samaa" or the brooding dark disco closer "Looking For A Golden Blanket" - the Madrid-based Italian producer delivers a top notch release from start to finish.

Review: Marlon Hoffstadt is a Berlin based producer who's sure come a long way since his debut on local labels Stil Vor Talent and Keno; he now heads up the Retrograde and Midnight Themes imprints. For the new label of UK music website Ransom Note, he presents some lush retro referencing house on the Observing The Known EP. Starting off with the classic acid house vibe of "Floating" which is reminiscent of 808 State, we've then got the bouncy neon-lit sound of "ARP+" which gets a very Jamal Moss sounding remix on the flip by London based Scott Fraser (Crimes Of The Future). The balearic/tropical vibe continues on the sun-kissed and blissed out "Batavus" and we particularly enjoyed that chunky Juno bassline throughout.
