Inspired by the rhythmic, clattering sounds of the industrial machines that soundtrack his day, Quirke produces a unique blend of acoustic and electronic music. From the frenetic, driving rhythm of "Break a Mirrored Leg" to the modern classical piano on "Acid Beth," Josh's sonic world is distinct and immersive; his bold sound best-represented by one word, his surname: Quirke.

Pional's Invisible/Amenaza EP brings the groove and audio-perfectionism of his previous collaborations but adds an unsettling sense of paranoia which brings the music depth and tension. "Invisible Amenaza" translates as "invisible threat." Pional's influences aren't really worn on his sleeve, but the forward-thinking producer adds influences from The Zombies, Roy Ayres, and The Police into a sound that manages to work on the dancefloor as well as the headphones.

2014 repress; 12" EP version. Following the low-key online-only release of Sundanza in 2010 plus his noted collaborative work with Jessie Ware, Lil Silva, SBTRKT, and Koreless, Dual is Sampha's first full solo outing. The record was put together over a period of 18 months in the gaps between, and time after, an intense touring schedule with SBTRKT live. Working from his childhood home in Morden, the tracks were written, produced and mixed by himself in isolation. Offering an intimate and idiosyncratic glimpse into his artistic intent, the EP, which includes "Indecision," showcases Sampha's talents not only as a vocalist but more broadly as a songwriter and producer.

Koreless' debut solo EP Yūgen on Young Turks. Existing somewhere between soulful electronica and Eno-like ambience, the emotion-filled soundscapes of Yūgen give the listener a glimpse into the vast concepts imagined by Koreless and presented through his music, artwork and performance. Remarkable in its restraint, sophisticated despite its simplicity, and almost entirely beatless, Yūgen is a bold statement that deserves to be listened to and lost in.

Short Stories is a collaboration between Welsh producer Koreless and London-based Sampha. Forging a friendship playing Young Turks parties in the summer of 2010, they came together in the space that was later the writing room for The xx's second album. With a vast array of synths, drum machines and other instruments, they explored a new sonic palette and learned about each other's process for creating music. Two cold, damp days later, they emerged with this playful first chapter of their alliance.

Chairlift present takes on several cuts from their acclaimed second album Something. John Talabot and Pional turn "I Belong in Your Arms" into a Balearica-infused club-closer. Photek takes the same track to a whole different place with his powerful jungle interpretation. Martyn respects both the pace and rhythm of "Sidewalk Safari," yet exchanges the clean production for a rather more cosmic beat. Dan Carey's dub mix of "Sidewalk Safari" shows a more playful side and The Field's take on "Met Before" recalls his early work.

Young Turks brings together two of the best producers in the UK to give their perspective on the work of SBTRKT. This musicological take on SBTRKT's "Pharaohs" recontextualizes Roses Gabor's Afro-futuristic vocals in a more genuinely space-age industrial club sphere. Lil'Silva's treatment of "Living Like I Do" takes Sampha's vocal and adds a jerk discord to a dramatic vocal performance. His trademark two-note bassline presents itself with its usual menace. Also includes a remix by Braiden.

TheShining are the DJ/production duo of Morgan Zarate (Spacek) and Acyde. The result is hip-hop influenced beats, with sound-system inspired vocals, the sound of after hours, dark clubs and the morning after. "Hey You" is a glorious flash of psych-style keys and hard hip-hop drums -- a much-needed call to arms. "Tell Me (I'm Wrong)" is a glimpse into their dark side, with a stomping rhythm backed by a triumphant horn section: like a conversation between Rick Rubin and Fela Kuti.

Split release (Sbjekt #01) from SBTRKT and Objekt. Where SBTRKT squeezes, Objekt expands; where SBTRKT threads vocal harmony, Objekt implements a programmed lyricism akin to Kenny Larkin or LFO; where SBTRKT builds a tight vehicle to share a wholly electronic vision with a new audience, Objekt breaks it down.

"This is Bullion's first release for Young Turks. At nine songs, 21 minutes total, You Drive Me To Plastic is neither an EP nor an album, nor a beat-tape, nor a mixtape, and yet manages to touch on all of these notions at once. If these are supposed to be "beats," they are devoid of the played-out signifiers -- no looped breaks, no wobbly basslines, no squiggly 8-bit chirps -- but the language of composition is entirely rooted in the hip-hop tradition. What is remarkable about this record is the ease with which Bullion draws disparate elements together, fusing them into a harmonious ensemble. Exotic percussion, jangling guitar lines and library grooves are married with hard-edged '80s retro-funk, plodding nu-wave synthesizers and Krautrock drones, and though these all make for unlikely bedfellows, here they tessellate perfectly as if made to match. The detailed intricacy and speed at which this record unfolds can feel jarring at first but rewards with repeat listens. Bullion rejects any kind of rhythmic convention, opting for awkward, faster tempos, odd time signatures, Afro-beat patterns, and beatless, dreamy interludes. It is the faintly glowing ghosts of yesteryear that unite all the songs on this record. The voices whisper, chant and float through the music, part acid-flashback, part new age hymn, their words twisted beyond all comprehension, yet clearly communicating a heady, intoxicating dreaminess. As the deep, dubby swirls of 'Lol Express' fade into the angular ooohs and ahhhs of 'Too Right,' followed by the Gregorian chants of 'Spirit Mighty,' it seems like this producer is having far too much fun pushing the boundaries of what he does to reign himself in. Perhaps a recent tour in Africa has paid dividends on informing the Bill Laswell meets hi-life atmosphere throughout. There is definitely a global outlook, or 'world music' feel to this work. The Italo funk of 'Pressure To Dance,' the most instantly accessible track, will find as much favor in the record boxes of Mancuso disciples and bearded Balearic warriors as it will on the dancefloors of Dalston's numerous basement clubs. Equally, the blunted hip-hop head-nod crew will most definitely find something to pack their bowl to here. Overall, this is a mature and sophisticated record that will delight crate diggers of all ages, especially those searching for something with one foot in the past and one foot in the sound of tomorrow. A work of beguiling beauty, and an endearingly quirky listen, You Drive Me To Plastic is arguably his finest and most original work to date. If he can find it in himself to deliver a full length of this quality, then the future is golden." --Mr. Beatnick

Featuring guest vocals by The xx's Romy Madley-Croft, "Days" is a ghostly blend of Romy's ethereal voice and CREEP's sinister beats, blending tones of goth, shoegaze and R&B to create darkly prophetic and orchestral soundscapes. Drop The Lime produces a bass-oriented track, filled with moments of great suspense. Soul Clap retains the track's dark, mysterious nature while turning it into a deep disco track. John Roberts mixes the original's epic orchestral elements with broken drums for an intriguing combination of sounds.
