Smallville Records welcomes Barcelonas Lis Sarroca onto the imprint this November with her four-track Untitled Thoughts EP. Since 2018, Barcelona, Spains Lis Sarroca has been steadily unveiling her take on House, Techno, Disco and Electro via the likes of Shall Not Fade, Hot Haus and Chiwax among others as well maintain a steady presence across the globe as a heavily in demand DJ. Here, we see Sarroca making her debut on Smallville with her latest collection of works, again showcasing her widespread influences and mesmerising sonic aesthetic across four cuts. Up first is Atacote, a hypnotic house cut with a Balearic feel courtesy of breathy vocals, cinematic strings, piano lines and hazy atmospherics, intertwined with organic percussion and bouncy sub bass tones. Breaks Reminder follows and shifts gear into a broken rhythm section, squelchy acid lines and textural synths throughout. Opening the flip-side is Early Years, diving back into deeper realms with a multitude of ethereal pads, dubby synth flutters, plucked bass hits and crisp drums. Might Be then concludes the EP on a more chuggy Nu-Disco tip, employing gritty bass stabs, bubbling arpeggios, airy flute melodies and a saturated off-kilter drum groove. Cover Artwork by Stefan Marx

Edward delivers his latest collection of works, the 'Eddie Green' EP via Smallville Records this July, comprised of four originals. For the past decade and a half, Frankfurt-original Gilles Aiken, better known to most as simply, Edward, has been unveiling his productions regularly via the likes of his most regular home Giegling, but also Baby Ford & Eon's Trelik, White, Die Orakel or DFA, plus teaming up with Ricardo Villalobos in 2020 for their Disordered Rhythm Metronomy project on Perlon. Here though, we see Edward mark his debut for Smallville Records, a fitting home for his deep, dynamic and hypnotic style which regularly blurs the lines of House, Techno and beyond. Up first is 'Primal Dream', a raw and reduced journey through modulating synth flutters, squeaky percussive twitches and a bumpy, robust rhythm section. 'Blue Glue' follows and diverges into a more mystical sonic world with haunting chants, resonant synth licks, meditative chimes and ethereal textures intertwined with crisp, crunchy drums. Title-track 'Eddie Green' opens the B-side, embracing a more dubbed out, deep techno aesthetic via murky chord swells, clattering organic percussion, throbbing low end pulsations and vocoded spoken word vocal lines. The aptly title 'So Slow' then rounds out the release, dropping the tempo and shifting focus Edward's more jazz-tinged influences with wandering piano melodies and soulful vocal chants uttering the track's title, underpinned by shuffled drums and waves of sporadic oscillating synth.
