Review: The combined talents of pianist-producer Alfa Mist and jazz drummer Richard Spaven have spelt the formation of a new hip-hop act, 44th Move, whose debut album for Black Acre debuts today. Centring on the notion of an "R&D mindstate", the pair bring a tonally lowered, electronicised sound to the table, teaming up with two further confidants - Bristol turntablist Awkward and Detroit rapper Quelle Chris - for an extended jaunt through techno, r&b and rap, arrayed in overarching drapes of moody jazz.

Review: For Record Store Day 2025, Bloom Japan presents a lovely 7" from the 45TRIO, who reimagine Minnie Riperton's classic 'Inside My Love.' This reinterpretation delivers a lush, jazz-infused instrumental take that honours the original's unique sensuality while introducing a fresh, soulful groove for modern 'floors. 45TRIO's tasteful blend of live instrumentation and vintage tones helps breathe new life into this timeless gem while the B-side offers a stripped-down version perfect for late-night spins or sample hunters. This is one to pick up and drop during those loved-up moments.

Notes: Great value from 4ms's twist on the Stereo Triggered Sampler module, this time capable of playing and manipulating stereo or mono WAV files from an SD card.

Supplier's Notes:
The Sampler is a variation of the Stereo Triggered Sampler.

Record, play and loop stereo .wav files with an SD Card. Includes the same 2022 Sampler Pack from the Stereo Triggered Sampler.

Features:

The Sampler plays stereo or mono .wav files from an SD Card. Samples are arranged into banks by placing .wav files into folders (each folder is a bank). A maximum of 10 samples can be loaded in a bank. There is a maximum of 60 banks (600 samples maximum total).
Sample files are limited to 4GB each, which is over 6 hours at 44k/16b/stereo.

Hundreds of samples included on microSD card
Extremely quiet, low noise and low jitter design
Stereo or Mono output

A knob and CV jack selects the Sample to play, and the Start Position knob and CV jack control where in the sample playback will begin. The Length knob and CV jack determine how much of the sample is played back: from tiny grains, to percussive hits, to longer loops... or just the entire file.

Pressing Play or firing a trigger into the Play Trig jack will play the sample. Holding the Play button down for a second will toggle looping.

There's also a Reverse button and jack for backwards playback, and an End Out jack for synchronizing loops, or cascading sample playback with other events.

To record samples, hold Play and Reverse for two seconds. Press Play again or fire a trigger into the Play/Rec Trig jack to start and stop recording. Each recording will create a new stereo 48kHz 24bit .wav file in the current bank's folder. Recordings can be as long as your card has the capacity for: a 256GB card is 18 days of continuous recording (432.9 hours). Audio data is split into maximum 4GB wav files on the microSD card.

Play button/trigger jack: Tapping the button or receiving a trigger starts/re-starts the sample
Sample CV/knob: select which sample within the channel's bank
Pitch CV and Pitch knob: playback pitch (-10 to +4 octave range)
Start Pos CV/knob: position in the sample to begin playback (loop start point)
Length CV/knob: playback time (loop end point)
Length knob at max: entire file is played
Length knob 50%-99%: 200ms - 5s of the sample is played (beginning at the Start Position)
Length knob <50%: Percussive decay envelope is applied to the playback (attack-only envelope if playing Reverse)
Length <1%: Tiny grains are played (can be used to sweep through sample file data manually)
Reverse button/jack: toggles forward/backwards
Bank button: selects channel's bank
Reverse + Start Pos button/knob combo allows for setting volume of playback
Maximum file size for playback: 4GB per file (6.7 hours per file at 44.1kHz/16b/stereo)
microSD Card is hot-swappable when Busy light is off: no power-down required to change cards.
Samples that are pre-loaded into memory can continue playing while card is swapped.

File Organization:

Using a computer, the intuitive automatic bank loading features make dragging and dropping your entire sample library a snap. No files need to be renamed. Just create folders and put up to 10 samples in each. If you want a folder to be associated with a particular colour of the Bank button, name the folder a colour name (such as "Blue - Loops").

Ships with a high-speed 16GB microSD card, loaded with hundreds of samples created for 4ms, from musicians such as Richard Devine, Wobbly, Moor Mother, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Joseph Pailo, Russell E.L. Butler, Hugo Paris & Marc Kate, Paul Barker, Baseck, Animal Collective, Cristian Vogel, Jay E, Marcus Fischer, Chris Carter, Daedelus, Nero Bellum, Anna Sitko, Thomas Fang, Bogdan Raczynski, and more (Sample List)

Intuitive bank/colour organization system; no need to rename your wav files
Record new samples directly to a bank with the Record Input jacks...
... or drag your folders of sound files onto the microSD card, and each folder will become a bank.
Folders starting with a colour name will be loaded into that colour bank
Example "Blue - Frooty Loops" will load into the Blue bank
Sub-folders are ignored, only folders in the root directory are scanned for wav files
Works best with UHS Speed Class 3 cards with |3| symbol printed on the card

Review: Originally formed in 1980 in Reno, Nevada, 7 Seconds are often credited as one of the most vital and criminally overlooked pioneering hardcore punk acts. Following on from their much-adored 1985 EP-cum-LP Walk Together, Rock Together, their 1986 follow up New Wind featured slower tempos and a notable imbuing of melody, with the project going on to be credited as an integral blueprint for the hardcore scene's eventual embracing and transition into pop-punk and indie rock. This long overdue reissue from Trust Records arrives complete with the complimentary Change In My Head, which is a totally new take on the classic album featuring tracks remixed in their entirety by Ian MacKaye (Minor Threat, Fugazi) alongside Inner Ear Studios' Don Zientara. Restoring and reimagining unreleased cuts from the original LP such as 'Change In My Head' and 'Compro', these bonus tracks offer a fresh snapshot of 7 Seconds in transition, but still very much firmly rooted in their hardcore ethos (before literal U2 comparisons would arise with later output). This limited double LP also comes with a 24-page oral history featuring unseen photographs, flyers, and memorabilia.

Review: Planet Orange Records' fifth release is a four-tracker from the legendary minds behind Alien Recordings, aka A2 and Stopouts, who take one side each. From the opening moments, the Beyonders EP weaves a thread between the halcyon days of tech and minimal from the 90s but with forward-thinking energy. A²'s 'Glider' is a happy, piano-laced celebration to start with ,then 'Let's Get It Together' cuts loose with lithe pads and more mid-tempo drums. Stopouts steep up for the flip and soon melts the mind with some tightly woven acid and cosmic tech on 'Sin City' and 'Kartwheel' then brings a more freewheeling and loopy groove with some neon colours dripping down its face.

Notes: Rack power bringing 2.5A (2500mA) on both the +12V and -12V rails. There is a 5V rail, but it pulls from the +12V rail, up to 750mA. So only use the +5V rail if you have to.

Comes with 12-position flying bus cable and wall power supply. The wall power supply is the same unit as After Later Audio use on their cases, so there's plenty of headroom and you don't have to worry about memorizing which amperage is for which.

This should be roughly enough for 2 rows of modules in a 104hp case. If you just need power for 1 row, check out our Warp Drive module.

Notes: With Time | The Roger Miret Archives

"Agnostic Front was a product of one of the most notorious and dangerous times of New York City history. The band captured those times sonically and visually. An image and sound that could have only risen from the grimy streets of old New York City. A time when the struggle fuelled incredible branches of creativity not only sonically but mainly within the underground wave of Artist clashing with Punks evolving into an inspirational era fuelled by the New York City Punk boom that bridged and reached the world in many inspirational ways."

"These are some of my archives that I have cherished my whole life. A time capsule of an era where life presented the darkest days of my life with light at the other end of the tunnel and that light was ambient even though it all seemed in black and white there was that one colourful rose rising from the concrete grime of the New York City streets. That colourful rose was my life, my soul growing and reaching my maximum being and my purpose and path in life."
-Roger Miret

Early archives from the collection of Roger Miret, chronicle the beginning of the New York Hardcore scene, and the DIY ethic that created the sound and feel of Agnostic Front.

Review: Los Angeles based self-described "ecstatic black metal" outfit Agriculture are slowly becoming one the most talked about acts in the extreme metal underground, with near hysteric levels of hype growing for their self-titled debut full-length. Signing to The Flenser, a label known for its championing of the leftfield extremity of artists such as Chat Pile and Mamaleek, it's no real surprise that so many in the scene are gravitating toward the group's euphoric and uplifting re-interpretation of black metal motifs. With tremolo picking, blast beats and howling vocal shrieks all angled in such a sonic manner to feel enveloping and warm as opposed to the traditional frosted machinations of the genre, as well as the vulnerable poetics on display, Agriculture make a strong case for the Venn Diagram intersections which can often occur between the realms of black metal, screamo and post-rock, but they do so in such a nuanced manner as for it to feel blissfully cohesive and utterly natural.

Review: Originally unveiled on 22nd September 2014 on the Infectious imprint, Alt-J's difficult second album certainly proved their worth at the time. Hitting the top spot in the UK album charts, alongside number two spots in Belgium, Australia and Canada, even managing to break the top five in the United States. The holy grail of impending global stardom for British guitar acts.

All of which went at least some way to bagging the outfit a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album. Skip forward eight years and how fitting is that label now? Well, it's still the triumph it always was, spanning folktronica, pop, indie and art rock in a way that's likely never going to sound by numbers in any way. A great example of exactly why this band deserve every bit of the recognition they now command.

Review: The fledgling WEorUS label rolls out more stylish, minimal and tech here from a trio of artists. Andrade goes first with 'Kubernetes,' a driving minimal house cut packed with hefty groove. It is followed by 'Content Security Policy' which is a slick, rhythm-forward roller that locks you into its flow. Flip to side-B and get swept into Dragosh's 'One Way,' a deep, hypnotic workout that's all tension and release and rounding off the trip is Fabrizio Siano's 'Control Your Emotions,' a poignant, late-night burner that delivers introspection through rhythm.

Review: Persona 3 Reload reimagines Atlus' iconic RPG with updated graphics, gameplay, character designs, and new music. The soundtrack pays homage to the original's late-2000s style while infusing modern elements, creating a unique blend. 'Reloaded' tracks cleverly reference the original tunes while introducing fresh elements for a captivating experience. With Persona's signature swagger, the Atlus Sound Team explores diverse genres like opera, hip-hop, and house. The Persona 3 Reload 4xLP by iam8bit features the Reloaded soundtrack on stunning Holographic Broken Glass Vinyl, ensuring the premium mastering treatment for tracks like 'When the Moon's Reaching Out' and 'Aria of the Soul.'

Review: Tim Bergling's music as Avicii was loved enough in his lifetime, but it doubly shook the world after his untimely death in 2018. This career-spanning compilation brings together 19 key tracks by the Swedish DJ and producer, zooming back in mainly on the key works by Berg under the Avicii name, on top of another unreleased tune, 'Let's Ride Away' with Elle King. Avicii's instinct for brain-lodging hooks is on full display here, from the anthemic and unforgettable 'Wake Me Up' to the introspective of 'Heart Upon My Sleeve'. Also included are fan favourites like 'The Nights', 'Without You' feat Sandro Cavazza, and 'Lonely Together' feat Rita Ora, tracing his evolution from bedroom producer to international headliner.
