    Tessela - "Nancy's Pantry"

    The Needle Drop

    A hard-hitting new single from Tessela, which is out October 7th via R&S Records. The track is a pretty interesting use of breakbeats, creating grooves that are equally hard-hitting and off-kilter.

    Aleph - "Fourth Way"

    The Needle Drop

    Aleph Fourth way (Official) from Gero Doll on Vimeo. Some wonderfully glitchy and strange visuals attached to this new Aleph track, “Fourth Way.” Kudos to Gero Doll on the video, and Aleph’s sonic shift from heavy pianos to thick layers of buzzing synths and complex rhythms isn’t bad
