- The London label's new offshoot has upcoming records from Andrew Weatherall, Jamie Paton, Andy Blake and Timothy J Fairplay.
London imprint Emotional Response will launch a new sublabel called Especial this month.
Overseen by Stuart Leath, Emotional Response already has a reissue-focused sister label called Emotional Rescue, and launched an offshoot earlier this year called Emotional Relish in collaboration with Relish Recordings chief Headman. This latest venture will be "not nu-disco in anyway, or house, but something in between," according to Leath.
The first record comes from Cage & Aviary man Jamie Paton, while the second is helmed by Baris K, with remixes from Khidja & Balabas and The Asphodells, AKA Andrew Weatherall and Timothy J. Fairplay. The sublabel will also release a collaborative EP from Richard Sen and Scott Fraser in the coming months, as well as a "ten-minute 303 monster" from Andy Blake and Fairplay.
The first two releases have been floating around on sale as white labels for a month or so, but they'll be given official releases with full sleeves this month. You can listen to snippets of all four tracks from EES001 over at Especial's SoundCloud page.
