  • Yulia Niko Q&A

    Hello and welcome to Magazine Sixty, Yulia. Let’s start by asking how living in and then moving between Russia, America, and Berlin has informed what you do in terms of sound and also your approach to life? Hello Sixty, and thank you so much for having me. Always cool when a DJ can talk to

  • As music continues to exist beyond the banal and in ways which still tantalise and excite the formation of notes into striking potential, this new release from Pascal Feos’s imprint is a most welcome addition. Fathoming depths and exploring a diverse range of sounds and influences, Beste provides a wealth of horizons to find yourself

  • Matt Edwards and Patrick Mason combine talents to produce this temptingly devilish release for the always on point Rekids. In days of easily acquired tame, repetitive instrumentation it’s refreshing to hear spoken words which cause and impact upon your soul. The message in Elevate does just that as the tough, funky and deeply intense rhythms

Something about a brutal intensity that is richly rewarding as repeating layers of grainy sound overlap and underpin each other’s role in the arrangement, with thumping kick drums and understated percussion creating an involving sense of unease. If that all sounds

  • Funny to think that After Dark originates from 1995. I could have been made today. Rekids offshoot R-Time Records continues to deliver its neat line in re-issues with the aforementioned punching out shuffling Electro rhythms amid a series of grainy, pulsating kicks and sizzling hi-hats. All offset by the poignant rush of emotive pads which

  • Located just off Oxford Street at 42 Hanway Street, London you would find Contempo, a record shop and mail order company opened in 1970 by Blues And Soul magazine founder John Abbey. They dealt out some of the hottest Black Music of the time as well as becoming established booking agents and promoters. This brand
