Mark E | ‘Stone Breaker’

Coming from the school of disco re-edits and long-winded soulful house emerges Mark E with his first album on Spectral. A sure departure from his roots, Stone Breaker is a mature look at analog-based house that, at it’s core, never loses its disco soul, but very tastefully reimagines the standard formula in a way that sounds both challenging and yet immediately accessible. This is one that, on the second listen begins to reveal all of its hidden secrets, so give it time to grow on you.

For a preview, here’s the very soulful album closer, “The Day”.

And in case you miss that old school disco flavor, check out his Stonebreakin’ Mix from March.

In the meantime, if you have the good fortune of being in the EU and Asia, check out his tour dates below, which run through July. We’re hoping for a North American leg to this tour here, but so far, it’s fingers crossed.

If you have not yet had the opportunity to hear the band Hatchback, this is where I started. Their new album, Zeus & Apollo, is astonishingly beautiful. For fans of space disco, new wave, Brian Eno and Tortoise; expect to have your eardrums very pleasantly tickled.

Today’s Music Buy.

It seems like it’s recently become a tradition for me to buy new music every Friday, so I’m going to start sharing my buy lists when I can. Typically I look for stuff on Bleep, though I definitely do hunt at Boomkat, Clone, and various other distributors. If I go for vinyl, I buy it locally—shipping that stuff gets expensive, quick.

Today’s cache:

Various Artists | Back and 4th | Hotflush

Hatchback | Zeus & Apollo | Lo Recordings

2562 | Fever | When In Doubt

Om Unit | The Corridor EP | Terrorrhythm Recordings

Julio Bashmore | Batty Knee Dance EP | 3024

Dolphins Into The Future | …On Sea-Faring Isolation | Not Not Fun

Deepchord Presents Echospace | Vibrational Studies (In Echospace) / Symbolism in Transition | Modern Love

Dorian Concept | Her Tears Taste Like Pears | Ninja Tune
