Premiere: Wild Dark - Talky Talkie (Robbie Akbal Remix) [trueColors]

Robbie Akbal is a Mexican organic house artist who recently launched his new record label, Midnight Riders. The label's new release features enchanting original music from Robbie Akbal alongside remixes by Alex Twin and Jim Rider. 

Midnight Riders is sister label to Robbie Akbal's long-established Akbal Music with the aim of creating an outlet for the more melodic side of his sound. 

One of North America's most respected underground artists, Robbie Akbal is known for his laidback grooves with soothing melodies and earthy percussion. He has travelled the world to DJ everywhere from Berlin to Tokyo, and is also a skilled producer that along with releasing music via his own record labels, has also featured on other prestigious imprints such as Sol Selectas and Crosstown Rebels. 

On remix duty, Alex Twin is an organic house artist from Dubai who is a driving force within the country's club scene where he DJs regularly. He is also a talented producer who has built up a back catalogue including music on labels such as Bar 25, Cosmic Awakenings and Pipe & Pochet. 

Also providing a remix, Jim Rider is a UK artist with close ties to Lee Burridge and his record labels All Day I Dream, TRYBESof and Tale & Tone. He has also released his majestic style via the likes of Kindisch and Akbal Music. 

"Phangan" is the solo original track on this release and it's a mesmerising piece of music that orientates around upbeat percussion and trippy synth pads, which lay the foundation for a stunning sitar performance by Sidartha Siliceo. The track's breakdown is cut by dramatic bursts of percussion as it builds suspense to when the kick drum reappears and the sitar lifts it to new levels of psychedelia. 

Alex Twin's remix of Phangan loops sections of the sitar and adds additional percussion to create a chunky groove that doesn't lose any of the original's trippy vibes while stepping the energy up a gear. 

Jim Rider's remix adds a melodic bassline and epic synths that give his version an expansive sound, which creates an uplifting vibe shrouded in an immersive atmosphere that's perfect for the dance floor.

After just eight years of operation, foremost Mexican label Akbal Music, run by DJ and producer Robbie Akbal, is now notching up an impressive 100th release with this new EP from the boss himself. It features the vocal talents of famous contemporary singer Cari Golden and comes with remixes by Mexcian producer Louie Fresco, Grant Dell and Fabio Giannelli.
Akbal Music has offered up great EPs that cover minimal, techno and house and include artists like Guti, Eric Volta, Patlac, Audiofly and Hector amongst many others. Boss Robbie, meanwhile, has also released on Meanwhile and Culprit and is a revered DJ and producer as well as a keen A&R.
The lead single in original form is ‘Im Just Watching’, a low swinging house tune with deep chords, kinetic drums and emotive, sexy vocal intonations by Cari Golden, who has worked with Fur Coat and DJ T before now. It’s the sort of subtly building groove that will really bring people to the floor and it brims with late night colour and seductive charm.
Italian Fabio Giannelli, who is a Get Physical regular, flips the track into a more hypnotic, sombre affair that sways to and fro with wood block hits and a nice use of reverb. It’s physical but heartfelt and really eases under your skin.
Then comes the on fire Louie Fresco, who runs Mexa and has a long and fruitful relationship with No.19 Music that ended up in a debut full length recently. His Stomp remix is a no messing, physical and tough tech track with lots of layered up drums, percussion and dark vocals that are like paranoid voices in your head. It’s a high pressure cut that will make floors sweat. Lastly, Grant Dell of Cougar Tracks and Chicago Transit Authority flips the track into a groaning bit of late night funk with occult synth sweeps, curious melodies and elastic bass that all come together like a deep and dark disco track.
There is something for everyone here and this contemporary house EP is a fine one with which to celebrate hitting the 100 mark.

PREMIERE: Robbie Akbal, Alice Rose - Deep In The Jungle (Redolent)

Bayjazz was born on a warm afternoon in Koh Phangan, Thailand during an impromptu studio session by Robbie Akbal and Nicolas Brunet. That day Nico jammed in the piano delivering some jazzy vibes, afterwards Robbie competed the track with some cool synths and retro feel good sounds that came together to create a fresh groove that's perfect for the summer.

On remix duties we welcome Francesco Mami (Get Physical, Human by Default) delivering a solid tribal house meets deep house fusion that brings a more club-fee like to the original. It's filled with great percussion and a solid bassline groove that ties everything together into a fantastic tune.

Hope you enjoy the music , perfect for this hot summer days!

Moodmusic Radioshow - Robbie Akbal (30.08.2018)

Robbie Akbal takes us to Mexico with his divine 2 tracker, ‘Chacahua’. The title track pulls at the deep strings as it guides us slowly into the brush. The heat rises. We’re deep into the spiritual journey when the groove hits us, taking control of our bodies and minds together as one. Robbie lets up to lead us to the plants of the gods, or ‘Plantas de los Dioses’; the second track on our plate. Warm and dreamy, the track softens its grip to give a smoother, more chilled ride from here on out. Make no mistake though, we’re not through yet, Robbie has a few more tricks up his sleeve before the nights over.

Robbie Akbal - Chacahua [Kindisch]
