#85 Top Releases in Electronica

Enter is the first installment of West Coast label, Jelly Bean Farms, two-part introduction compilation. It features 12 tracks by up-and-coming bass & techno producers from North America, UK and the EU. Each has contributed distinctly unique tracks that embody the JBF signature sound that balances dark & rolling with moody nostalgia. Inside JBF co-founders, Squane & Rees, kick it off with Little Orphan Android an ominous 125bpm head-nodder with a hyphy 808 broken-kick pattern. Truskas Rush is an eerie deconstructed-break roller with a tense held-back sexy feel. Hyphos Majikk is a dark atmospheric yet danceable 125 bass grime-nod. PAN:INCs Freight is a driving 120 UK techno banger with industrial soundscapes pinned against warm organic drums and chords. Jelly Bean Farm has gotten play & support from Keysound Recordings, Mumdance, Madam X, Lamont and Orson. Last month Dusk & Blackdown invited the JBF labelfounder, Ganesa, for a guest slot on their Keysound Recordings Rinse FM show, and the 100\%\% Jelly Bean Farm Mix was well-received. Keeping with the momentum is the release of their premier compilation set for release February 17, 2017.
