Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 6th March 2020
Physical Release: 6th March 2020
About This Release:
The various sides of Melbourne quartet Big Yawn fluctuate neatly across their debut full length No!. Subtle dub techno delays combine with live drums on Attaboi to formally introduce their clear affectation for the motorik sounds of 70s Deutschland. Previous single Skinrat curiously references off-rhythms and vocal cut ups a la late naughties UK bass music, while abstract jams such as For Whomst channel the adventurous live-and-direct sound of Golden Teacher and kindred experimentalist Inga Copeland.
Heavy low-end bass frequencies and twitches of dub fx permeate the LP, shades of post-punk and loopy minimal wave (Doodle Damage) contrasting with the more jagged dance orientated moments. In opting to close No! with their most expansive recording (Body Double), Big Yawn delve deeper into the tense and ritualistic atmospheres the prior tracks only hint at. The effect seems akin to a snapshot into their lengthy freestyle practice sessions; a process honed and refined here for the LP format. Until their next outing, the relentless groove of Anthem X will keep hips swaying during those sweaty early morning club hours.")

Album: Ithā Sajā [ALBUM]
Track: 8 of 9
Title: Tadārīs IV
Artist: Khaled Kurbeh
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH015
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 4th September 2026
Physical Release: 4th September 2026
About This Release:
Ithā Sajā is an ode to dusk, dawn and what’s in between.
Or, Ithā Sajā is a collection of piano recordings I made in my Berlin studio between:
– dusk and dawn
– Hinterhof sununu chatter
– construction site clamour
– upstairs scuffles
– U-Bahn rumbles
– Kreuzberg and Tempelhof
– 2021 and 2022.
wal-Leil [by the night] is inspired by conversations with my friends Hend Alkahwaji and Wejdan Nassif during theatre rehearsals.
wal-Leili [by the night II] is an imagined conversation with my friend Raman Khalaf. An homage to the jurjina rhythm found in folk music of northern Iraq and Mesopotamia.
In wan-Najmi [by the star], one phrase repeats over and over with subtle changes – inspired by a procrastinating artist (quietly) dancing before a (nearly) stretched, (almost) blank canvas, dreaming up a (new but familiar) pattern.
In Ithā Hawā [to fall / to fall in love], a flâneur takes an early evening stroll along the Landwehr canal in Kreuzberg.
Tadāris [terrains] is an ongoing series of acoustic études – played with mallets, objects and fingers inside and outside the piano.
In Ithā Sajā [if it settles / when it darkens], my left hand keeps a steady rhythm while the right one wanders in search of a nocturnal motif. My eyes peek out the window. It’s the first attempts of dawn.
Marking Khaled Kurbeh’s second release with Research Records, Ithā Sajā is a collection of nine piano pieces. The gatefold vinyl features cover art and a booklet of drawings by Ida Lawrence – nine repetitions of Khaled’s upright piano, taking shape or disintegrating as one turns the page. Thank you to Alessandra Peach and Maryos Syawish from Research Records, and to everyone listening.")

Artist: Elite Beat
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH10
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 4th December 2020
Physical Release: 11th December 2020
About This Release:
Research Records continue their voyage into Elite Beats extraordinary back catalogue with their second compilation Selected Rhythms Vol. 2. The chosen tracks are lifted from the Portland collectives three-part cassette series Casual Rhythms; a treasure chest of meditative and genre-defying instrumentals where percussion and dub accents prevail.
Elite Beats approach to producing music is their routine for respite. The band reflects when they come together weekly, its an opportunity to put down their other projects, ambitions, work and life stresses for a few hours and just be. This spirit flows into their free-form expression, absorbing both the band and the listener. Additionally,Elite Beatreveals the foundation of their output lies in the discipline of being able to sustain vibration through repetition. Theres a constant coiling mantra throughout each track, the band commenting while many musicians can get totally bored playing the same thing over and over, we love it!
The mixing process swings between embracing the warmth of live recordings and generating noise with analog manipulation. The band experiments with their recorded sound expressing we are less concerned with sounding like 90% of recorded music out there and more concerned with trying shit out.Elite Beatalso cite dub music and its process of recording as an inspiration and how this approach lends itself to a deep listening experience, a notion the band channels artfully.
Remastered for the first time on vinyl, Selected Rhythms Vol. 2 adds to the immersive and interstellar tapestry of Elite Beat. The compilation delves deep into the healing and hypnosis that characterises the collective. For those who were inevitably left looking for more with Selected Rhythms Vol. 1, heres a no-brainer.")

About This Release:
Oregon sextet Elite Beat continue their dubwise world-groove mission with a two track 12 of what sounds like organic, in the moment live takes with an intro count to boot. Layers of psychedelic sax and drums ebb and flow alongside heavy low end, building on their compilation of healing and hypnosis inspired jams Selected Rhythms Vol. 2. Despite being based across the ocean, big Jah Shaka dance vibrations occupy the A-side with a steady house tempo combining with the woodwind across ten minutes of proper body music. The slower, introspective approach to side B takes in elements of post-rock with flourishes of electric guitar yet grounds itself in the dub mentality through pulsing sub-bass and swirling synth work. The wide-reaching bed of influences present in Portlands bands, shops and labels shows itself time again in Elite Beats work, evident through recent collaborations with Mdou Moctar and past outings here at Research.")

Title: Silence On Lake Purity
Artist: Mouche
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH011
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 26th May 2023
Physical Release: 26th May 2023
About This Release:
Mouche (real name Tim Karmouche) returns to Australian label Research Records with another full-length of imaginary soundtracks, instrumentals and sun-kissed digital jazz. Active on the Melbourne scene in projects such as Crepes/The Murlocs/Swazi Gold/Dreamin Wild, Tims first album Live From The Bubble arrived back in 2020 as an ode to his aptly named studio space - The Bubble.
Lake Songs builds on those same atmospheres, showcasing the inward-looking craft of his one-man band. Cicada field recordings and light keys open proceedings, reflecting the warmer side of 80s new age, though before long were introduced to a variety of stylistic shifts incorporating elements of cosmic funk, lounge and library-style compositions. There are traces of Steve Hiett, Max Groove or even the recently re-discovered Ronald Langestraat, though the strength of Mouches talent for harmony shines through on its own level.
Shifting between moods yet reflecting an overarching sense of positivity, listening through the ten tracks gives off a real sense of place, though time is somewhat irrelevant. The warm climate and sandy beaches of Australia seem eternally embodied in Juice or Crystal Water. Perhaps where Live From The Bubble was dedicated to the very studio that birthed it, Lake Songs is dedicated to the vast land that surrounds it.")

A compelling prelude to their debut album No! due out in late 2019. Over six years the Melbourne-based group has evolved, with members of the band running various releases through label and collective Fallopian Tunes. As of 2019, Big Yawn had become a four-member music group, motivated by a history of studio production, prolific collaboration and quality hangout time. The groups freshest effort Skin Rat/Thomas captures the band performing live in the studio, and its typical Big Yawn: fat and punchy low-end bass; drums and live drum processing; delay fx samples; thick syrupy synths. Skin Rat is a hyperbolically dubbed out, tongue in cheek, magnetic blend of UK garage, footwork and breaks. And Thomas takes cues from a slightly damaged post-punk sound, amplifying a brittle and sinister type of atomic porn-funk. Limited to 200 copies. Hand numbered and housed in a screen-printed sleeve, artwork by Julian Hocking. Reviews for This Release: Packaged up in a kind of slow-motion rhythmic chaos, this oddball jam with fluttering, bubbling synth effects and beautiful warm bass creates a quirky little world to slip into. - Resident Advisor")

Track: 2 of 2
Title: You Are in the Embrace of the History Now (A2)
Artist: Rafet
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH12D
Formats: Digital
Digital Release: 30th August 2024
About This Release:
Rafet studied music from a young age. Tertiary education brought about further teachings in jazz. Growing up in the family village of Miniara (North Lebanon) saw to an inquiry into maqamat and traditional arabic musics post study. After composing for multiple ensembles and performing in various projects over the years, Rafet settles into his own artistry with You Are In The Embrace of The History. This body of work is one that is personal; sighting connection to a land, spirit and devotion to a holy other.
You Are In the Embrace of The History delivers longing with grace, a realisation of ancestral memory with the eloquence of an internal knowing. Finding home in the cradle of the poem, a universal affirmation lies deep within an irregular heartbeat.
The listener is offered an invitation to enter into the vista of expansive harmonic voicings, anticipating resolution. The work is edged by expressions of spiritual jazz and tempered by the scope of ambient musics.
Rafets offering has the humility to pose questions (the illumination and the ecstasy). In the Dead Sea, there are no fish.")

Digital Release: 7th November 2025
About This Release:
Idling on the walls, there is a pleasant orange light… Memory is like this. Even More Familiar Than The Sparrows And The Car Horns is a piecing together of fragments, falling in and out of focus. Were guided through a series of rooms that are undeniably his, yet lays no claim to them. Rafets latest release, armed with the resonance of nostalgia and longing, mysticism and colour, takes a simultaneously personal and distanced thesis of the translation of experience.
For an instrumental composition, the track is rich with image. His arrangement remains evasive, never quite taking full flight. It remains held in anticipation, shimmering with recollection. The soul wants to depart, to return, but much like our attempts at reaching back into the corners of our mind, Rafets subject is but a visitation to memory and trace.
