Cephas Azariah & josh and sam who are twins - coherence
Read more . . . →Who names their project “josh and sam who are twins” and then makes something this fragile and this good? “coherence” showed up via MrSuicideSheep, which has been a reliable filter for exactly this kind of small, emotional electronic music for well over a decade. It’s built from soft, granular synth textures and a vocal from Cephas Azariah that sits low and close, more murmured than sung, the whole thing playing like a 3am voice memo someone was finally brave enough to release. The percussion is barely present, a few muted taps and a sub that pulses under everything. This is...

Yomanda - Synth & Strings (Rerecorded) (LAWTON Lick)
Read more . . . →When did a 2000 trance anthem start sounding this fresh again? “Synth & Strings” was a Y2K dancefloor staple, and this rerecorded version with a LAWTON lick hauls it into 2026 without stripping out the thing that made it work in the first place. That string stab is still the star, the same one that lodged in a million heads a quarter-century ago, and hearing it cleaned up on modern production is genuinely emotional if you were around for the original run. LAWTON tightens the kick and gives the low end a contemporary punch, so it hits on a current...

He Kidnapped the President and Took the Oil
Read more . . . →Trump announced “THE BIGGEST OIL DEAL IN WORLD HISTORY” yesterday — majority US control of 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan crude, at “no cost to taxpayers.” Quite a deal. All it took was starting a war with Iran that drained the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to its lowest point since 1983, abducting Venezuela’s sitting president and flying him to New York for trial, installing his VP as a compliant “interim leader,” threatening her with the same fate if she didn’t cooperate, and waiting for her to rewrite the country’s oil laws to Washington’s specifications. Free of charge. The reserve is sitting...

The Second Voice - LET ME BE (Justė Remix)
Read more . . . →The kick on this remix has a specific rounded thud I could pick out of a lineup, the kind that fills a room without ever going harsh. Justė takes “LET ME BE” by The Second Voice and reshapes it into a clean, driving dance record that knows exactly what floor it’s built for. The original vocal gets stretched and filtered into something closer to an instrument than a lyric, surfacing in the breakdown just long enough to hand you a hook. What Justė does well is the patience of the build, a long slow filter-open that keeps promising a payoff...

SUPERSTRINGS - Balearic Temptation
Read more . . . →There’s a guitar line in here, actual plucked strings, sitting right where you’d expect a synth arp, and it reframes the entire track. “Balearic Temptation” is SUPERSTRINGS doing exactly what the name promises, trance with one foot in the Ibiza sunset and the other on a festival mainstage. The build is patient in that classic uplifting-trance way, layering strings and a rising synth over a four-on-the-floor kick until the tension is almost too much, and then it releases into a euphoric lead that goes straight for the throat of anyone who grew up on this sound. I did, so it...
