$25.00
PREORDER
RELEASE DATE: 8/7/2026
The A side opens with two ambient pieces: "Inception," gritty and haunting, built from field recordings and layered chords, and the dreamier "Regulator Dial." "Air Lock" and "DFtB" turn breaky and lowtempo, evoking early electronica. The flip moves through "Waterproof's" downtempo electro and "Make Right," the LP's most club-ready cut. Title track "Bean Soup" channels early Four Tet: bleepy, minimal, emotional, while "Sunlight" closes with blissful, calming sounds, rounding out a beautifully balanced record. Tudor Gheorghe, aka Romansoff, is a Bucharest DJ, producer and vinyl collector with over 13 years on the capital's underground scene. Inspired by small local parties in the 2000s, he started collecting vinyl, then DJing, quickly becoming a key figure in the Bucharest club scene. Since founding his imprint Raw Tools in 2013, he's released on Lobster Theremin's Mork, Creme Organization, Les Yeux Orange and Solar Phenomena. In 2018 he co-founded venue Platforma Wolff, a full club by 2021, as booker and resident, hosting headliners like Prosumer, Paramida, and Tornado Wallace. Versatile and creative, he stays a fixture at Bucharest's best nights.

TONTON 003EP
|
Veteran of many scenes, Liar returns from a prolonged hiatus to dip his toes in TonTon's rising wave. His contribution ranges from Balearic breakbeat workouts and intimate dub siestas, to impish takes on world music and electrofunk. Liar's knack for cultural and stylistic interbreeding pervades throughout -- you will hear Paisley Park homages, falsetto crooning, comical cuicas, city pop ornaments, '70s radiophonic psychedelia and Final Fantasy samples alike, flamboyantly converging into an artifact of stubborn hope, love and peace.

TONTON 001LP
|
Petre Inspirescu returns with a four-part suite of mesmeric, long-form compositions. Spanning two 12" records, each track occupies a full side -- unfolding with the patience and precision of serialist structures. Drawing from minimalism and contemporary classical traditions, this is introspective electronica in its most refined form -- hypnotic, elegant, and quietly expansive.
