Label: Research Records

Formats: 7" Vinyl/Digital
Digital Release: 25th March 2022
Physical Release: 25th March 2022
About This Release:
'Doroth follow on from a 2019 self-released digi EP with this fresh 7" for Research. The duo of Loretta Wilde and Maria Moles from Melbourne have established a song writing craft that's equal parts This Heat and Throwing Muses; all disjointed rhythms and dry vocal delivery that seems to come with an intentional feeling of malaise. Where their self-titled EP allowed for the sprawling Still House Plants-esque sound of 'On The Lamb', both 'Take It Easier' and 'Picture' condense the live sound into two sub 4 minute slices of indie pop / art rock goodness. We've got no clue what photograph Wilde is singing about but the combination of bass and drums bouncing off one another underneath her prolonged strainings will be sure to stick in your brain.'

Album: Pressure Acts [EP]
Track: 2 of 6
Title: Surf Dive n Ski
Artist: Big Yawn
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RREP09
Formats: 12 Vinyl/Digital
Digital Release: 29th October 2021
Physical Release: 29th October 2021
About This Release:
Big Yawn make experimental electronic music by fusing a wash of sweeping synthesizers, heavily refracted vocal sampling, motorik style percussion and disorientating dub FX.
Their latest studio release Pressure Acts creates a space where breaks compete with live drums compete with drones. Relentless pummelling bass lines and kinetic dub FX come standard.
Big Yawns energetic and unrelenting live performances create a definitive impression on this release. The sonic textures in the record are lush, stoned, frenetic and fun. The music is sinister yet also tongue-in-cheek — Phil Collins and Slipknot may have even been sampled.
The first single Ragazzo is ideal for joy rides in HSVs and/or flaunting at the local disco parlor - a dank blend of YMO style pop hooks, driving bass, delicate synths, and a robotic pulse. Big Yawn - Surf Dive n Ski [Audio]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QNSBD359X08/mqdefault.jpg)

Album: Lake Songs [ALBUM]
Track: 4 of 10
Title: Swamp Thing
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.

After more than six year of writing, rehearsing and recording in the suburb, theres no doubt that Footscray is home for the band. Jennings adds that the album is, a bit of a recap of the last three years for Dreamin Wild, drawing attention to the change and growth many of the eight songs have undergone since creation. I Dont Disagree is an album highlight; an almost seven-minute track that struts along calmly, taking life as it is. Quirks soulful refrain soars atop Jennings laconic vocals, carrying the song to its end. Dynon Life is another album gem, reminiscent of summer in the city, and happy seeking excess. Heaven in Thirty Eleven is an ode to a Melbourne suburb brimming with culture and stories, made by artists who are proud to call it home.

Album: South Preston Garage [EP]
Track: 4 of 6
Title: Offshore Diamond
Artist: Big Yawn
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RRC02
Formats: Cassette/Digital
Digital Release: 4th September 2020
Physical Release: 4th September 2020
About This Release:
Research Records presents Melbourne electronic quartet Big Yawns second contribution to the label, South Preston Garage. A title to honour the bands beloved bandroom, S.P.G compiles demos extracted from the studio for a digital release with a limited run of cassettes. Big Yawn reflects that completing the EP presented the challenge of creatively engineering the lo-fi recordings in a way that offered thrilling and creative insight for us and perhaps some replay value for the listener.
S.P.G embodies Big Yawns trademark pastiche, fusing together rich percussion and sweeping synthesizers that are recontextualised through an extensive shed jam. The band characterises the first two tracks British Teeth and Burno as Big Yawn flavoured DnB, with refracted drum phrasing and unrelenting delays. Cascading acid-tinged bass rules in the quivering 4 Dads; a venture into the bands stockier temperament. The panoramic Burton Bell delivers raw and biting percussion, while remaining faithful to electronics with its layered sampling. The release then disperses into seaside rapture with its farewell Bad Boy. On Bad Boy, the band comment that the track is perhaps our most melodic number to date, with heavily looping synths evoking a Hiroshi Sato/city-pop feel.
What is perhaps most unique about Big Yawn is that they present familiar electronic sounds amplified as a live band. A timely release; S.P.G translates the satisfaction of hearing a live band in a period when all we really want is to go to a gig.

Formats: 12 Vinyl/Digital
Digital Release: 5th March 2021
Physical Release: 5th March 2021
About This Release:
Electronic four-piece Big Yawn invites five revered artists to reconstruct their debut album No!, originally released in March 2020 through Research Records.
The remixes convey a unique combination of darker textures and brooding sounds, clearly indebted to their source material.
The release features interpretations from Sleep D, Jay Glass Dubs, Maria Moles, Bullant and Raymond Scottwalker.
Rhythm merchants Sleep D (Butter Sessions) up the tempo and weave their signature expansive production in their fearless take on Reflex.
Prolific producer Jay Glass Dubs (Bokeh Versions) flavours the Body Double refix with looping clattering drums and glitchy murk, creating a compelling arrangement.
Like a drift into a warm gorge, percussionist Maria Moles (Nice Music) inserts gentle sustained synth work into Doodle Damage.
Bullant (Flightless Records) pulls the listener out abruptly with a rework of Skinrat, a house-streaked churner.
Raymond Scottwalker (Fallopian Tunes) wraps up the record with another rework of Reflex, creating a mind-bending, aggressive industrial rejig.
Big Yawns remix EP is a dynamic pairing to No!, entrusting an exceptional group of musicians to adhere to the spirit of the record, yet take it in a totally re-imagined direction Big Yawn - Reflex (Raymond Scottwalker Remix) [Audio]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tg-tXMoX2D0/mqdefault.jpg)

About This Release:
Big Yawn - NGB
Research Records welcomes back Melbourne quartet Big Yawn for their fourth full-length offering, NGBE.
Big Yawns ability to blend complex rhythm sections with infectious basslines, deep synth work, and tongue-in-cheek sampling remains ever-present, and perhaps is the most advanced weve heard yet.
Sitting in a world of its own, the album—named after the groups beloved and lost warehouse space, National Gallery of Brunswick East (where most of the material was recorded)—features a wide array of soundscapes spanning mutated drum n bass, low-key grime, rap, and dub-wise antics, all laced with a heavy dose of FX.
Equal parts deep and menacing, the nine tracks encapsulate Big Yawns evolution in the studio and on stage, most notably through their collaboration 2Stroke with Melbourne-based future rap prodigy Teether and brought to life visually with album artwork by Julian Hocking.

Album: Live From The Bubble [ALBUM]
Track: 1 of 10
Title: Lifeboat
Artist: Mouche
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RRC01
Formats: Digital
Digital Release: 10th July 2020
About This Release:
Solo excursions from Tim Karmouche (The Murlocs/Crepes/Swazi Gold/Dreamin Wild) provide a joyous confluence of melody and rhythm, an instrumental ride through imaginary soundtracks and drifting liminal atmospheres.
Live From The Bubble strikes as a pure and earnest pursuit of experimentation in a fashion that seeks to evoke lifes simple pleasures. Crafted over many an hour spent in the mysterious studio space he nicknames the bubble, the various multi-tracks are looped and layered in a way that pays homage to old library funk and conjures up images of tight, seasoned session musicians in a pre-internet era. Like an old friend youve known for years, Mouches chords and harmonies communicate sentiments in a silent, knowing fashion.
A deliberate and necessary eschewing of words. The array of styles heard across the album hint to a fondness for exotica and surf rock, basking in a sepia-toned woozy nostalgia as opposed to wallowing in melancholy. Elements of Steve Hiett or G.S. Schray flicker in and out across the stereo field, particularly on the closing piece Thinking Straight, which despite its minor keys captures a mood of warmth and content, an end of summer lullaby to close proceedings. Karmouches own admission that the process of LFTB was centred around enjoyment comes as no surprise. Mouche - Lifeboat [Audio]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UYShFmekuBA/mqdefault.jpg)
