Percs & Benefits - May 2026
We can't remember how many times we're late to push this list on the exact month, and once again, instead we're releasing this one at the early of June. Pardon our tardiness, but we're trying and hoping that this May curation is well-chosen, covering diverse styles in a package.
Belgium's Leese's releasing Grip & Gräce, in May 28th, which according to its notes, "Captures a period of inner friction and transformation, a moment where emotions moved faster than words could hold them." This mission is captivated in impressive ways in "Fräcture" which starting as minimalistic, classical-driven approach, running deep and detailed, that'd later go to 4/4 percussive madness.
Our forever favourite, Peverelist' founded Livity Sound, has just delivered Joe Milli's 4-tracker club weapons that stands between UK funky and techno. A drop-dead percussive tunes, "The Less You Know" will be aligned to set up your set dynamics on the dance floor. Aside from this, the opening title "Retreat" and third tune "Mantra" are set for faster set delivery.
Anyway, we're getting ATEKU, another Dipha Barus' moniker, for our Hong Kong Community Radio show. Archive is up and can be accessed here.
See you in June's recommendation list!
