It’s boilerplate dance world jargon to say a DJ “shows no signs of slowing down” — but in the case of John Summit the statement appears factually sound. Fresh off shows in Central and South America, Summit today (Jan. 17) released “Focus” with Australian singer-songwriter Cloves, with the pair together creating a lush, urgently emotive anthem that melts house and tech house into a real 21st century banger. The track is out on Experts Only/Darkroom and comes ahead of a looong list of upcoming Summit shows in Europe, North America, India and beyond.
Does anything brighten a day like a fresh Jungle track? The U.K. trio drop their first song of the year with “Keep Me Satisfied,” which essentially argues “why fix what ain’t broken?” by extending the group’s signature brightly lo-fi and stoney throwback live electronic sound. The video, of course, is one of Jungle’s signature single-take dance clips, with this one (like the rest of them) directed by the masterful J Lloyd and filmmaker Charlie Di Placido. Out on Caiola Records, “Keep Me Satisfied” comes ahead of Jungle shows in the U.S. and Europe this spring.
Fresh DJ Koze output is always coze for celebration, so today we dance (or like, stand and nod with our eyes closed) upon the release of the German’s producer’s latest, “Unbelievable.” The track — which comes with a video directed by Koze himself, and features vocals from Ada, whose own 2011 album Meine zarten Pfoten was released Koze’s Pampa Records — is psychedelic electronica laced with doo-wop, and comes from his forthcoming album Music Can Hear Us, the follow-up to 2018’s beloved Knock Knock. “For some time now, I have been working on the idea of revolutionising aerospace tourism in specific: traveling without moving,” the producer writes of the album. “This is the closest I’ve ever come to it.” Consider us enticed.
The mighty Colombian producer today releases her second album, DÍA, the followup to 2020’s acts of rebellion. The album is an altogether excellent, no-skips project that further demonstrates Minus’ ability to fuse futuristic and in moments headspinningly complex IDM with deep (and deeply personal) lyrics about love, life on earth, the expectations has one’s for one’s self and what it’s like when they’re not met. (“I want to be better, I thought I was better” she sings on “I Want to Be Better,” “but I just seem to keep acting like a little kid.”) The project is out on Domino and comes ahead of an expansive world tour this spring.
The sound of modern day Ibiza is a lot of oontz oontz and womp womp and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But a new song named for the Spanish isle by Virginia outfit Butcher Brown also serves to remind us all that the island’s soundtrack is also a wavelength of groovy jazz laced with sex appeal and the exact right amount of sax. “Ibiza” comes from the group’s forthcoming Letters From The Atlantic, out March 28 via Concord Jazz, and due to dose up our earholes with a fusion of jazz, rock, funk, R&B, soul, bossa nova and more.
