Mosca – Done Me Wrong/Bax EP
It’s fair to say we give the Numbers label a lot of coverage here at the Labs. It’s not because they are from Glasgow or that we run into them on a regular basis, it’s the fact that they release top quality material from both new and established producers. Its looks like 2011 is going [...]
Pierre’s Pfantasy Club – Mystery Girl (Set Me Free)
To say this release came out of the blue would be an understatement! After the release of their last EP by Jamie XX, the Numbers crew have made one of the moves of 2011 and re-released the 1987 DJ Pierre classic “Mystery Girl”. This tune has been a firm favourite with the Numbers faithful since [...]
Jamie XX – Far Nearer
It goes without saying that Jamie XX is one of the hottest producers in electronic music today. From his Mercury Music prize winning work on the debut album from The XX through to his amazing work with the late, great Gil Scott-Heron on We’re New Here. He’s also been working on solo material and the [...]
Lory D – Strange Days Vol 1
After a relatively quiet time over the Xmas period the Numbers crew have had an explosion of activity recently. With the Redinho and Deadboy EP’s due to drop any time now and Jackmaster’s Fabric mix CD about to land. No time for any breathers however as Lory D steps up next. A firm favourite in [...]
Redinho – Edge Off EP
With the Numbers crew just back from their month long tour of the US taking clubs like Low End Theory and TURRBOTAX® by storm you would think they would be having a rest on the EP front. Not so for the Glasgow juggernaut with the release of a new Redinho EP hot on the heels [...]
Deadboy – Here EP
Deadboy is back with the “Here EP”, his long awaited new release on his spiritual home Numbers. While he has been busy touring all over the world, these tunes have been bubbling under in the Serato crates of the most in the know DJ’s. There are the usual warm, welcoming percussive sounds and vocal slithers [...]
Ill Blu – Meltdown EP
2011 starts with a bang as Numbers, one of our favourite labels of last year, unleash Ill Blu’s “Meltdown” EP. With “Bellion” bringing Ill Blu to our attention we were waiting eagerly to hear what was next. It’s all out pads and synth attack behind a murmuring 2 step snare shuffle that starts the EP [...]
SLACKK – Theme from Slackk EP
Hot on the heals of the Jessie Ware and SBTRKT release, Numbers have this pseudo house monster coming fast on the outside lane. SLACKK brings us three dark and upfront tracks which cross various genre borders to produce a tribal like feel. We may also have a new genre in there with his self titled [...]
Taz – Gold Tooth Grin EP
More heat out of Glasgow comes as the much anticipated release by Taz get an airing before its 15th November release. Many of the tracks on the EP have been getting played since last summer with fans eager to get the 12″ in their collections. Well the time is nearly here as Numbers deliver the [...]
SBTRKT – Step in Shadows EP
We have long been big fans of the enigmatic London producer SBTRKT on the blog and when his latest EP “Step in Shadows” hit our computers we were getting maybe just too excited. He is no doubt one of the most talented electronic music producers of the last 18 months with releases on Young Turks, [...]
