Wilba
Retracing The Steps

Concocted on the Clovelly coastline over the back end of 2024, we’re super excited to present Elijah Something & Wilba’s debut dual EP.4 cuts pulling influences from all corners of house, tech and deep house, this EP is perfect for those summer season occasions.Beach side, sunrise sessions or festival sunsets, this one’s for the feel-good moments.

Sex Tapes From Mars sister imprint, Hot Plates turns to junglist misbehaving, with chopped and screwed, pitched down and twitchin’ vocals, merging with ragga choruses. It’s hardwired to the dance but swerving every expectation - soulful chants spiral out like smoke in UV, tangled in a fever dream of gun finger pressure and rewound fragments.The flip is driven by a deep, bellowing bassline, paired with ominous yet soaring strings. Each part contradicts the next, but somehow it holds, glued together with that early jungle lawlessness. Still sounds raw, still sounds vital - as grittily dangerous now as it was in ‘93.The original release came as a limited white label 32 years ago, now grailed and silly bob on ‘cogs, lovingly remastered and cut loud, restoring the bite while adding clarity and bottom-end heft that rattles ribs. With the planet in free fall and the dance scattered, the sentiment hits harder: “All we need now is love and unity”.Proper summer system tackle. Not a repress - a resurrection.

After many years of digging deep and sharing music with like-minded individuals through various channels, 'The Wapstation' is proud to present its first release as a label.This record comes from the masterful hand of producer, Roberto Manolio. Born and based in Italy. Following a series of sellout releases, Roberto graces the label with three stellar productions. The EP touches on multiple underground textures, blending shades of Techno, House, Electro, and Miami Bass. To top it off, shooting star of the scene Christopher Ledger delivers a wicked Electro flip of the title track.

Picnic return after a summer hiatus with a dance floor ready 4 tracker from UK artist HenryG. The debut EP from the Manchester based producer delicately transitions between house and electro, while touching on some progressive elements in between. A1 comes in heavy with tastefully written synths and glitchy electro sounds drawing the listener into a dance floor trance. The A2 of the record, aptly named Serpent, slithers through progressive arpeggiators and a has a particularly distinctive, raw bassline, giving the immersive synths the power to carry the track.On the flip side, B1 explores a deeper approach to HenryG’s studio output and resonates strongly with early dub techno cuts. The vocal really personifies the track and brings it to life. B2 does it exactly what it says on tin, it’s tough.Although the structure somewhat resembles a more electro tip, it finds the perfect balance in between the electro realm and underground house.

The sounds of the past, rebuilt for the present. The Revival EP nods back to late 90s house and tech house: stripped-back, dancefloor-focused grooves with the raw energy and unmistakable character of that time. More than simple emulations, these tracks were specifically engineered to capture the authentic feel, sound and spirit of those records.Written, recorded and mixed at T90s Studios in Manchester over 18 months, the EP was produced with a fully period-accurate workflow. No plugins were used, only the same hardware, processes and techniques that producers relied on back then. Years of research and setup went into building this system, making the project as much a labour of love as it is a record. The result is four tracks that could easily be mistaken for lost cuts from the era, but made today. Nicely!
