Kresy – Sticky
A stalwart of Talabot’s Hivern Discs imprint, Kresy serves up the ‘Who Understands Love’ EP later this month via More Music – containing three original tracks plus a remix by Flux residents Aartket (who provided our latest Pelski Podcast). Grab …
Kit Grill – Changing Patterns
An excellent freebie from Kit Grill’s full-length record Mirror Image, playing with serene melodies and brittle percussive textures. The glimmering synth patterns sound at once primitive and enchanting.
John Talabot – 08-01
Here’s an unfinished John Talabot demo the Spanish producer is handing out for free. A reverberating bassline sits beneath chiming percussion. It’s brazen Balearic, summery feel is reminiscent of his early productions like ‘Sunshine’ or ‘Afrika’.
Kanda Bongo Man – Malinga (Daniel.T. Edit)
Daniel T, one half of Cosmic Kids, is giving away this re-edit of a Congolese song from 1984. A sprightly, sun-drenched party jam intent on coaxing the summer out – thanks to the LA-based imprint Chit Chat Records.

Palms Trax – I Wanna
Palms Trax used to produce ominous bass tracks under his Drop/Dead alias. Last year he arrived on the house scene with a bit of a bang. His sturdy drum machines turned heads thanks to a brittle, snappy quality which offered …
Jacques Renault – Edit Service 33
On The Prowl head-honcho Jacques Renault serves up the latest freebie in the ever-consistent Cliché Edit Service series. It’s a big, bounding piece of analogue sounding house – a spruced up version of the electro-boogie hit ‘Pepper Box’ by Spices …
Cuthead – Resteessen LP
We gave Cuthead’s album the full Pelski seal of approval last year with a shining five star review. Now we have a fantastic follow up: all of the material that didn’t make it on to the album is being …
