Lucid- The New Reprise EP Mini Mix ( Nightshifters) by lucid

BONUS: Check out his mindblowing remix of the Worthy single “Lost Dog” that we in Discobelle Records released last month.

Worthy – Lost Dog (Lucid Remix) by discobelle

Worthy’s new release on Discobelle Records is a skeletal house beat with some big hollow, rapid wartime drums on the original which blossoms into a piece of tech house trance warfare – we’ve also got a 7th level of hell reworking from Pelican Fly alumni Lucid, and LOL Boys working some percussive somersaults with the original, building it up into one of their most infectious ballooning basslines to date.

San Francisco’s Anabatic label runner and Dirtybird co-founder Worthy is on one with his followup to last year’s “Big Perm” release on Discobelle Records. This time, he’s channeled his expert house percolation into the “Lost Dog” EP, accompanied by two remixes – one from amorphously adaptive percussive dream team LOL BOYS and another from Pelican Fly’s frenetically unpredictable dancefloor worker, Lucid.

“Lost Dog” starts off as a skeletal house beat with some big hollow, rapid wartime drums sounding off over shamanic incantations yelped in the background. Things quickly get a bit more fleshed out as the tune meshes together into cohesiveness – Joe’s “Claptrap” for the tech house set, but replacing handclaps, sparse piano and coughing with chirping cut up vocal bursts and an unending percussive beat that burrows its way inside your skull.

It’s tough to outshine the LOL Boys remix though, which completely revamps the source material into a runway worthy pulsing, bubbling 808 affair complete with a dancefloor slaying vocal cut. “I work the crowd, I REALLY work it” gets muttered by what could well be a New York City transexual go-go dancer while a ballooning, expanding bassline rumbles underneath, powerful enough to kill small animals and puncture eardrums of anyone standing too close to the sound system. Throughout the six minutes, the track undergoes a workout of percussive somersaults and sounds like Egyptian Lover had a love child with J. Phlip on a yacht somewhere in the South Pacific.

Lucid’s take on “Lost Dog” asks you to check your expectations at the door, as the sound of hitting one of those question mark boxes in Super Mario Bros. signals a descent into a wormhole that abandons any cohesion or sanity that you might expect. Skittering bursts of hip hop pseudo-trance infused drum machines gallop their way overtop unpredictable synth fluctuations – outrageous southern hip-hop melded with a trip down the K hole. After coming out the other end, it’s safe to say you’re not going to be the same.

Out November 7th, stream it in full on Soundcloud now!

Worthy – Lost Dog EP (Discobelle Records) by discobelle

SF producer Worthy collaborates with Yankee Zulu for the latest release on the Anabatic label, “Digital Aboriginal” is wicked jacking tropical sounding techhouse track with a hypnotizing chant of a vocal sample.

New release from the uber productive folks over at Scion continues the tradition of their previous Dirtbombs/ Omar-S collaborative release, pairing old dance music legend Juan Atkins with fresh faced house music purveyor Worthy.

Godfather of techno Juan Atkins continues his lifelong dedication to the genre he founded by harnessing its alien sounds and pushing his brand of futurism on the dancefloor. These three new, heavily layered tracks are abstract works of art that you can dance to. In turn, the remixers have pushed Atkins’ tracks to more experimental, more organic and more poppier places. It’s a perfect set of sounds for whatever part of the galaxy you’re listening in.

Worthy twists the patterns of the Atkins’ original into a techno-cumbia bounce anthem. Its robust bassline and syncopated programming anchor it through its acidy flourishes. It’s a real smile-inducing, crowd activating rerub.

“Beware. The perm is back.

Accompanying the original, we’ve got three great remixes to round out the package from Worthy – Harvard Bass, Renaissance Man and Femme En Fourrure. First up, Harvard Bass gives a chunky, infectious bruiser that strikes a perfect balance between the deeper dancefloors and the uncontrollable, messier ones. Then, architects-turned-house-music-innovators Renaissance Man turn Worthy’s track into a sparse and icy percussive techno journey, continuing to push house music to deeper, stranger places.”

Beware. The perm is back.

Discobelle’s new release from San Francisco’s Worthy is a percolating tech-house ass shaker infused with enough oomph to make you sweat until you’ve messed up your hair. An infectious vocal sample and an uncontainable bubbling vibe make this one peak hour jacking tech-house at its best.

Finally and also from Helsinki, Femme En Fourrure choose to let things simmer a bit with a druggy pulse and some signature female vocals evoking Laura Palmer’s from Twin Peaks if she was making dance music.
