Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Tale Of Us - Nova Two

Journeying into July, this week's all-new episode of Bump In The Hump is as epic as ever, showcasing all things acid, techno, trance, bass and house. Primarily taking place in the 120-130 BPM range, the slow build features a fistful of free fire, brutal yet brilliant bangers from Kannibalen and Subsidia, and yet another Unidisc remixed classic. But before then, sitting right in the middle of the episode is Tale Of Us' "Nova Two," an update on their 2018 Afterlife Realm Of Consciousness Pt. III epic. Released as part of CircoLoco Records' Monday Dreamin' Black compilation, this new piece perfectly straddles the line between prodigious power and pensive poise. It is expansive yet constrained, universal yet limited, elephantine yet tender; it always leaves you leaning in, hoping to hear more, wanting to ride on its endlessly awesome waves. And ride we will as Bump In The Hump builds even bigger in its second hour, concluding with a fabulous foursome that includes Cadence Weapon, Richie Hawtin, Tiga and Nocow. Stream "Nova Two" now below and catch it in the mix tonight, live from 7-9 PM EDT on Radio Humber, or after the fact, as cataloged on Mixcloud here. FOLLOW TALE OF US: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER

Butch - Raindrops (ft. Kemelion)

CircoLoco Records continues to churn out colourful EPs as they march towards their massive compilation's full release Friday, July 9th. Following the likes of Rampa and DJ Tennis on Monday Dreamin' Blue and Green, respectively, Butch leads the Violet fivesome, which also includes Carl Craig, Margaret Dygas, Red Axes and Luciano. Alongside Butch on "Raindrops" is fellow German talent Kemelion, who lends his voice to the EP's incredible opener. And what an open it is. Right from the jump, Butch bares his brilliance for all to see with a well-crafted percussion bed from which the first vocal chop appears to emanate organically. And really, this is the key to the quality of "Raindrops." While undeniably electronic, it does not feel machine-made but rather restrained, calm and exceptionally cool. It will not blow you away, instead, it will sweep you off your feet with its slow, sublime swells and Kemelion's later, compelling vocals. Soul refreshing and refuelling, "Raindrops" is just what I needed on this Monday morning. Get "Raindrops" as part of the Monday Dreamin' Violet EP here.
