Irish Londoner wiz-producer/DJ Garry McCartney a.k.a. Ejeca (who we last discussed in 2013 for his low-key intimate-vibes garage-inspired house gem “Rosario”) blows our mind with a glorious carefully-laid sprawling-vibed sense of simplicity on “Ascension” the new sense-drenched raw-energy slow-trickling beat-heavy acid-house techno jam that is one of three tracks off Ejeca’s upcoming “Litmus” EP (out now via his own label Exploris).

B3 new fave Pat Lok has endeared a place on our favorite artists of 2015 list (thus far) for his distinctly-flaunty vibrant-synth-driven dancey-tropical blend of charismatic house music. We are drawn to Lok’s overtly pause heavy outstanding-artistry chop-y editing vibe that has come to define his signature style (which reverberates beautifully throughout his very catchy well-pointed recent body of work). Give a listen to Lok’s latest chipper intro-ed up-vibed percussion-laced reverb-y dance-friendly rework (of Autograf’s melodic-wood-tone-centric track “Dream”) that we think (refreshingly) treads a tad on the noir side in comparison to Lok’s previous works due to his choice in vocal sample and use of cold punchy metallic euro-house sensibilities that kick in late in the track. Brace yourself for more good stuff from Pat Lok, a true-to-life talent who we hear is a hoot at his live DJ stints. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

Get familiar with the warmly-lit spacey-interstellar sunny-sensed synth-chord-heavy indie dance vibe of LA producer Jamie Prado on his slow-building beat-driven cosmic-ambient new one “Hit Em Off” which we think excels for its smoldering bass-line undercurrent and simple syrupy-mesh of hip-hop soul-touched male-female vocals. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

Techno-leaning Soundcloud style-setter XLR8R scintillates our ears with yet another brilliant drawn out bass-heavy masterpiece house-pick called “Loft Groove” which stands out for its artfully-robust multi-faceted deep-into-the-under-layers far-out mesh of beat-driven sounds and textures. The track, which we appreciate in full for its dancey funk-centric beats, sultry-heated-vibe bass-line groove and contrasting two-toned vocal accents, is the artful production of Birmingham house/techno/disco producer Adam Shelton and comes from his new three track “The Shining Path” EP which is out now via One Records.
