NECTAH

Last month at Notting Hill Arts Club someone requested Azealia Banks repeatedly until she got told – the requested song failed to cut it on the dancefloor and a fight broke out between djs over whether Azealia could cut it in the big wide world of popland and beyond. And along came Moroka with a [...]

Last week Jumping Back Slash popped in to the Red Bull Studios in Cape Town to record a track. And the results are jaw-dropping! Utilising an MPC entirely for the beats and drafting in a little phatty Moog for the bass (all recorded live, strictly no midi) he’s put together something seriously special. And it’s [...]

Another mind-bending, digi-soca beast by Murlo is rearing its head. Off the back of his Nectah EP, we’re releasing ‘Solar’, a track that fully compliments the EP and bangs hard on any system. Available directly from our Soundcloud for free, forever… MURLO – Solar by Pollinate Last week he was busy busy playing Deja Vu [...]

As well as masterfully lending his ear to music production, Murlo’s a dab hand with the almighty pen. Having previously created illustrations for the Senseless label, Dillinger Escape Plan, Metronomy and more he’s become a real talent on the design front. Realising this, the nice people at It’s Nice That invited him to be a [...]

Our fourth Nectah EP comes from one of London’s most hotly tipped producers, Murlo. It’s a full on, digital soca and bashment affair with stunning effect. There is a health warning attached – be aware of potential repetetive strain injury caused by constant rewinding and wear padding before bouncing off the walls. A game of [...]

Dug up from the grave, Jumping Back Slash’s Simba Zombo side project…perhaps for its last laugh. Coming just before his Nectah EP hits shops on Monday here is an epic remix of Brownstone’s ‘If You Love Me’. Synth happy as ever, JBS breathes a new lease of life into another forgotten classic R&B vocal. It’s [...]

Jumping Back Slash returns with a brand new EP, Nectah 003. He’s pulled out all the stops and laid down six tunes that fully express his sound and move South African House into a new era. The EP is introduced by the metallic explosion of Flaai Baba. With its sexy vocal chops, tough bassline and [...]

This Autumn we continue with our Nectah Series of digital EPs. The second installment is a much anticipated debut release by Moroka. Cutting his teeth alongside the team at Secousse and producing a stunning track with The Very Best on their huge Summer hit, the Super Mom Mixtape, he’s poised, ready to drop his first [...]

Off the back of Jumping Back Slash’s 12″ earlier in the summer we’ve finally managed to dig out the long lost remixes of A-side, Kwaai Sneakers. Nearly destined for muso heaven, remixes by Erick Rincon, Silky Boys and Hanuman & Fire Eyes were retrieved last week from a hard drive buzzing and whirring through it’s [...]

It’s Carnival weekend in London. We are partying hard tonight. Come join us! To celebrate, Murlo has laid down a beauty little Mr Vegas mash up. Get it and wind your way to Notting Hill… Mr Vegas – Certain Law (Murlo Notting Hill Dub) by Murlo
