about

Ad Hoc Presents Vol 1 is the label’s first release, showcasing a mix of some well-established alongside up-and-coming artists in the Manchester scene.

A1 - First up is Hesse Groove, a scintillating bubbler from Banana Hill’s Cervo. Typical of Cervo’s productions, this track samples a wide variety of sounds, with a pulsing beat and a mean bassline that, when combined with some jazzy chords, give you the sense of wandering around somewhere undiscovered late at night.

A2 - Next up is The Gentleman from newcomer Chambers. This tune begins with a Fela Kuti sample, before a catchy-as-hell double bass riff drops and feverous percussion is added. Mr Kuti’s saxophone and vocals provide the breakdown, before a broken house beat is accompanied by reggae-style dub delay and filtering - all making for a guaranteed head-bobbing experience.

B1 - On the flip we move onto Market by RGB – a producer trio made up of Big Peace, Cutwerk and Szajna. Big names in their own right, this collaboration demonstrates more of a dancefloor sound. A commotion of rhythmic west-meets-world percussion is layered, before a chopped-up vocal sample appears. Like the title suggest, the track conjures up the experience of walking through a busy market in warmer climates.

B2 - The closing track comes from So Flute’s Yadava with Kadampa 125 - A record sample is chopped up, skewed and placed over some slow funky chords, with each sound perfectly produced and layered for maximum groove. Two thirds of the way through the chords change and start to slowly wind down - the perfect way to bring the label’s first release to a close.
