Ninja Tune is busy as ever with a slew of new releases planned for the coming months, including an LP from LA’s eccentric beatmaker, Daedelus (pictured above) and an EP from rising Viennese producer Dorian Concept. Bespoke, Daedelus’ first LP for the label since 2008’s Love to Make Music To, finds the producer employing the voices of a number of collaborators including Bilal, Baths, Inara George (of The Bird and The Bee), and Busdriver, among others. The new LP is also said to include more live instrumentation than most Daedelus efforts, with musicians like Amir Yaghami (a.k.a. Young Dad) contributing guitar for much of the record and Sa Ra’s Om’mas Keith contributing keys to the track “Suit Yourself.” Vienna-based musical prodigy Dorian Concept will see his Ninja Tune EP debut in the form of the four-tracker Her Tears Taste Like Pears. The young producer has seen his stock rise recently, making a name for himself with his unique mix of jazz, electronics, and, at times, club-friendly tendencies by playing with Flying Lotus’ live band and contributing a standout track to Ninja Tune’s 20th-anniversary box set last year. Daedelus’ Bespoke is set to be released April 11 in Europe and April 26 in the States, and Dorian Concept’s Her Tears Taste Like Pears will be available March 28. There’s no artwork for Daedelus’ LP yet, but you’ll find the full tracklist below, along with the artwork and tracklist for Dorian Concept’s forthcoming EP.

Next Friday, London’s burgeoning grime label Butterz is set to host Fabric‘s Room 3 with sets from Terror Danjah, Swindle, Champion, Logan Sama, and label heads Elijah & Skilliam (pictured above). To help spread the word, both Elijah & Skilliam and Terror Danjah have made mini-mixes available over at Fabric’s site. Both mixes come in under 30 minutes but still manage to pack in rather impressive tracklists. Elijah & Skilliam’s features some Butterz exclusives, such as Royal T’s remix of S-X’s “Woo Riddim” and a collaboration from Trim and Starkey entitled “This Aint Me,” while Terror Danjah’s mini-mix is chock full of tracks from his own Harddrive imprint as well as a handful of his own productions. You can download the Elijah & Skilliam mix here, the Terror Danjah mix here, and get all the info on Butterz’s upcoming night at Fabric here.

Hessle Audio co-founder (along with Ben UFO and Pearson Sound/Ramadanman) Kevin McAuley (a.k.a. Pangaea) has a new 12″ single slated for release later this month on his own label. The “Inna Daze” b/w “Won’t Hurt” single is said to find the veteran producer exploring “his own take on UK bass music.” Considering Hessle Audio has been on the cusp of forward-thinking house, dubstep, and UK bass music since its inception, we can only imagine that this single will further the imprint’s well-deserved reputation. Although we can’t share any audio from the forthcoming release, below you’ll find a stream of Pangaea’s track “Deviant,” from his 2007 single for Hessle, which will have to hold you over until “Inna Daze” b/w “Won’t Hurt” drops on February 28.

Yesterday, we caught wind of Brooklyn duo Games changing up the name of their, uh, game, opting to call themselves by their respective last names instead, and today we discovered that buzz-producer Joy Orbison has simplified his own moniker, too. Under the name Joy O, DJ/producer Peter O’Grady has already got a new single coming down the pipeline through the label that broke his excellent “Hyph Mngo” tune, Hotflush. The 12″ will feature the tracks “Wade In” and “Jels,” and will be released on March 21. You can preview a radio rip of “Wade In” below. (via FACT)

Update: Apparently, O’Grady’s label, Doldrums, tweeted “Still O.R.B.I.S.O.N.” So, make of that what you will.

“Wade In”

Back in January, we let you know that the Berlin-by-way-of-Holland producer 2562 had launched his own label, When In Doubt. Now, with its first release (a 10″ single from the label head himself) only a few days behind it, the imprint has announced it will release a new LP from 2562 in the form of a disco-inspired concept album entitled Fever. That’s right, the master manipulator of all things low-end has made this new record drawing inspiration from the underground disco music of the mid-’70s and early ’80s, going as far as to solely use sound sources that originated from disco records of the time to craft the songs for the record. However, according to his press release, the 11 tracks found on Fever in no way resemble their decades-old sound sources, even garnering a comment from low-end cohorts Martyn and Pinch, “Sorry, but I don’t hear that whole disco story in there. This simply sounds like you.” When you’re 2562, that’s probably a good thing. Fever will be released April 4. Check the artwork and tracklist below.

01. Winamp Melodrama
02. Cheater
03. Juxtaposed
04. Aquatic Family Affair
05. Intermission
06. Flavour Park Jam
07. This Is Hardcore
08. Brasil Deadwalker
09. Final Frenzy
10. Wasteland
11. Fever

More than two decades after the start of Marcus Intalex‘s music career, the drum & bass DJ/producer and Soul:R label owner will finally release his debut full-length album via his own imprint on April 18. The 12-song LP is called 21 (named after how many years Intalex has operated under that moniker), and features collaborations with the likes of Calibre, S.P.Y., Zed Bias, and more. On his forthcoming record, the artist says, “It’s influenced by everything I’ve been into for the [past] 21 years, everything I’ve believed in: techno, the earlier sounds of drum & bass, and experimental IDM. The balance in power shifted—not away from drum & bass, but almost away from commercial dance music.” Before 21 drops, Intalex put together a fresh mix for those anticipating his LP, called 21 Years Mix, which we’ve embedded for you, along with the artwork and tracklist for 21, below.

01 Make A Raise (feat. S.P.Y. and Ras Tweed)
02 Climbing Up The Walls (feat. Lynx & Danny Fierce)
03 Meltdown (feat. Calibre)
